NieR Replicant is set in a desolate and broken recycled world built upon the lies of the previous generations. The sky is overcast constantly and whilst some of the locations are visually stunning there is a constant melancholy feeling lurking in its wake. The story is just as pessimistic. The main character is on a quest to save his dying younger sister from a disease. A mysterious black scrawl has started manifesting itself under her skin. No one has ever survived this disease before and there is not much information recorded about it. As this is happening the monsters of the world, The Shades, are growing more violent and the main character is working as a mercenary to help them get by.   Of course, in typical Yoko Taro fashion, there is a hell of a lot going on behind the scenes. There are practically two plots happening simultaneously, but for someone as dramatic and over the top as him, I was surprised by how basic and easy to follow the main plot is. Previously NieR was released

Like Groundhog Day but with more guns Stuck in a time loop, Colt finds himself starting every day waking up, hungover on a beach with no memory of how he managed to get there. After some exploration and finding messages, he seemingly left himself, he finds out he can escape by assassinating the 8 Visionaries who rule the island of Black Reef in one day. So, his journey of violence and discovery begins! In Deathloop when you die, you restart at the beginning of the day. You do automatically have a power that rewinds time three times after a death preventing small mistakes from being overly punishing. But if you make too many- tough luck, you need to replay the loop again.  Deathloop is at its heart an immersive sim in the same vein as games like Hitman and in particular Arkane Studio’s previous outings with the Dishonored series. This genre is best replayed to experience different solutions to missions. The clever part of the time loop design is no longer is exploring levels somet

Nintendo Switch Online- Expansion Pass 64 Emulator Has Problems Nintendo has faced criticism after the new Expansion Pass tier has not met fans expectations. The issues being reported are as followed: 1.        Inability to button map The N64 Switch app maps 'a' and 'b' to the same buttons on the Joycons however, their positions are reversed when compared to the Nintendo 64 controller. Additionally, the C buttons have been mapped to the right stick and the Z button is only on the ZL Button. 2.        Issues rendering fog Many Nintendo 64 games use fog to hide draw distance and build atmosphere. Ocarina of Time in particular seems to struggle when emulating fog. In particular, a tweet by StopSkeletons  shows the room in the Water Temple where Dark Link is fought and the emulator struggles to render both the fog and water. 3.         Latency Issues Some players are reporting slow input times using the N64 app. A few YouTubers have done tests to verify th
