More Thoughts From Me #262: Welcome Outriders
Yesterday I checked out the Outriders demo for the Playstation 4. I heard the game described as “Mass Effect meets Gears of War” online somewhere.

More Thoughts From Me #261: Bravely or Default
Recently, I finally finished the Bravely Default 2 Final demo. And I have some thoughts on the game’s battle system! It took me awhile to finish the Bravely Default 2 demo. I had stopped playing it for a bit and then went back to it, stopped, went back it, etc. I liked the demo but I found it pretty hard. But then, I saw a video that Nintendo put out that explained the battle system and I finally got it!…

So go check it out) Nintendo’s 50 minute Direct today was packed with a lot of stuff. I…
