Fire Emblem Engage Review: Rebuilding the Foundations
Three days ago, Nintendo and Intelligent System released the seventeenth entry in their ever popular Fire Emblem franchise: Fire Emblem Engage. I had fallen off of Fire Emblem years ago as my interest in the franchise began to wane with the release of games like Three Houses, however something about Engage grabbed my interest so…
‘Skinamarink’: New Era of Nightmares
You watch enough horror movies and it becomes increasingly difficult to be scared or disturbed. After all, this is coming from the same writer who didn’t even flinch at torture porn such as Martyrs, or finds the current output of horror films to be tame and generic or just fun popcorn cinema at best.

The English Sakura Wars Community Is Going Through a Renaissance
Tell me if you’ve heard this story before. A franchise becomes super popular in its home country and is beloved by fans there for years.
