'Battlefield V' Release Trailer Meltdown
#NotMyBattlefield, the trending tag was posted almost everywhere on Twitter after DICE released the first Battlefield V trailer. Talks of hate speech, misogyny, and bigotry resonated throughout the gaming industry as fights between "feminists" and "historian gamers" ensued. Sure, the highly anticipated WWII shooter has not released yet. Still, tons of gamers are outraged. Could this spell disaster for the AAA title before its long-awaited release on October 19, 2018?

Nintendo Announce New Mobile Action-RPG, 'Dragalia Lost!'
Today, Nintendo has announced that it will be releasing a new game for mobile devices. After a few years of resistance, Nintendo has emerged as a major player in the mobile games market. Early in the smartphone era, Nintendo refused to make games for phone devices. However, with the market expanding like it is, Nintendo swiftly changed their approach and have since released such games as Animal Crossing, Mario Run, and Fire Emblem.

Why 'Sea of Thieves' is One of the Best Games I've Played in Years
Rare's 2018 Open World RPG Sea of Thieves had a rough start at launch. For the first month of its release, the game has had a decent share of bugs, glitches, and a peculiar case of disabled achievements that I've never seen happen in gaming history before. Yet, despite the minor setbacks plaguing the system at release, I haven't had this much fun playing a game in years.

The Newest Nerfs/Buffs on PTR and More...
As of today, there's a bunch of changes to a variety of heroes on the PTR of Overwatch and these changes are likely to increase the play-rate of some heroes. The characters that have been given some alterations are: Reaper, Mei, Zenyatta, D.Va and Moira. The majority of these changes are due to Jeff Kaplan's concern about the Four Tank meta making a come-back. It's not often seen in Overwatch League but having a read through forums and Facebook groups, this meta is widely loathed because of how difficult it is to counter and how DPS players are often left to wonder what to play. These buffs and nerfs will hopefully keep that at bay, as Jeff hopes.

Kingdom Hearts III
Kingdom Hearts has long been a series that has captured the hearts of many individuals across the globe over the course of the last decade. Kingdom Hearts is known for its fantastical mixture of both Final Fantasy and Disney elements to produce a most unusual gaming experience that most people did not know they needed. The first ever installment was released on September 17, 2002, in North America and I still remember experiencing this game on my PlayStation 2. The sheer nostalgia of traveling to my favorite Disney worlds in search of my lost friends imprinted upon me life values that would shape the adult I would grow into over the course of the years playing Kingdom Hearts.
