Gear up for Expedition 33 with Gustave and Maelle as they attempt to stop the Paintress to save what’s left of Lumiere while uncovering the secrets of their broken world. The game delivers an emotionally dense, semi-linear story with beautifully crafted cutscenes and a lush world full of memorable characters. Expedition 33 doesn’t disappoint on any level. The turn-based combat features an engaging twist, letting you dodge enemy attacks and hit skill checks to deal more damage. There’s so much going on story-wise that if you blink, you might miss a key moment or fail to dodge that sends you to an early grave. It’s best not to blink at all while playing! Finally, the soundtrack ties everything together, adding an intense emotional punch for every moment of the journey. I could write thousands of words about how awesome this game is, but honestly, you should just play it yourself. You won’t be disappointed.

Suit up, Vault Hunter, and dive into the chaos of the wasteland. Wondering what do expect on your first run through Pandora? Warning: Exposure to psychos may cause death, temporary blindness, or unexpected loss of bowels. Playing through the game that kicked off the borderlands series is a nostalgic throwback to an older era of game design. But this old classic hasn’t aged too well especially when it comes to co-op mechanics and difficulty scaling. In co-op mode, bullets sometimes fail to register properly, and after a few hours of play, frame rates can drop drastically due to memory leaks, often forcing a full restart. Combine that with uneven difficulty scaling in both the base game and DLCs, and some players might find the experience frustrating. Still, if you can power through the bugs and technical issues, there’s a lot of chaotic fun to be had. It’s a messy but fun start to one of gaming’s goofiest adventures.
