Destiny: Age of Wrap-Up
[I wrote the first part of my Destiny review after having played through (and been disappointed by) the abrupt and surprising lack of content in Vanilla Destiny. This piece covers the completed game, about two years after I wrote my conflicted and irritated original review.]

Destiny: You Must Construct Additional Content
[As Destiny's final piece finishes off the game, I thought I'd compare and contrast what I wrote after playing the original (or "Vanilla") release of Destiny, prior to any DLC releases, with what the game's like now. If nothing else, this part is a nice, nostalgic look back what we had with Dinklebot]

Mass Effect Andromeda Review
Released: March 21, 2017 Genre: Third-Person RPS First Impression: "Jesus, are those the faces?" The first modern video game I played was the original Mass Effect, around ten years ago now. Since then the title's exploded, with sequels, books, merch, and the like following in the wake of its success. But the trouble with ongoing, consistent success is complacency--and you can see where that got the designers of Mass Effect 3, with its lame (original) ending barely bothering to acknowledge the amount of effort you put in to the entire damn game. That being said, I still played through Mass Effect 3 like... 4 or 5 times, one after the other, using different characters--and therefore different choices--each time. This, I thought, was the strongest point of the Mass Effect games: where its sister title Dragon Age abandoned the idea of carrying over choices and progress from previous titles at "Dragon Age 2: Errands in Town", Mass Effect kept with it.
