The Rising review

September 25, 2023 | Reading time: 2 minutes

A small improvement over the first novel that drives the plot forward and has a pretty satisfying ending, which is pretty rare for middle books in a trilogy. Our main cast returns, with Hugo Longchamp being made a POV character and given lots of screentime.

F1 23

August 19, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Another excellent entry in Codemaster's simcade F1 series. Updated for the new F1 season, F1 23 features all the new drivers and tracks, and has refined the racing model to feel better than ever.

Light Bringer review

August 2, 2023 | Reading time: 2 minutes

A titan of a novel that in some ways takes the series back to its roots while simultaneously driving the plot forward and crucially developing many of the major players. In the 4 year wait between Dark Age and Light Bringer, I admit many of the finer details and smaller characters were lost on me....

Ys IX: Monstrum Nox

March 19, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Ys IX is the most recent entry in the series, and keeps the same party system and combat from Ys 8.

The Walking Dead - Season 2

March 12, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

The Walking Dead Season 2 picks up where Season 1 leaves off. We play as Clementine, forced to grow up too fast, and meet a whole new cast of characters. The gameplay remains the same as in Season 1.

Fester Mudd and the Curse of the Gold - Episode 1

February 22, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Fester Mudd seems like a perfectly adequate, if a little clunky, adventure game. It's got a western theme, nice music, and plays like the old school Lucasarts adventure games.

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, movies, and anything else I find interesting.

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Another project I'm working on is my Pokemon Living Dex Challenge, where I try to obtain one of each available Pokemon and transfer them into Pokemon Home.

Yet another project I'm working on is my Old School RuneScape "Completionist" Quest, where I'm attempting to max out all skills and see everything the game has to offer as a completely new player.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
• Reviews, where I post longer-form review writeups
• Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
• Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
