[h1]An MMO Shooter That Never Quite Found Its Aim[/h1] Defiance 2050 was designed as a reimagining of the original Defiance, attempting to modernize its MMO third-person shooter formula while tying it to the same sci-fi universe. The concept is exciting on paper: a massive shared world filled with alien technology, post-apocalyptic landscapes, and cooperative combat where hundreds of players can fight side by side. It’s a mix of loot-driven progression and open-world chaos, borrowing ideas from both shooters and RPGs. The shooting mechanics are decent. Gunplay feels tight enough, movement is fluid, and the variety of weapons gives players a fair amount of experimentation. Combat can be fun—especially when dozens of players join in on large-scale “Arkfall” events, blasting enemies and racing for loot. Those moments capture the thrill of a living online world. Progression is structured around upgrading your gear and character powers, unlocking abilities that complement your preferred playstyle. There’s a satisfying rhythm early on: complete missions, earn loot, upgrade, repeat. The world is large, with diverse zones and plenty of activities scattered throughout. For newcomer…

Games like Remember Me, picked for the Memory Remix rather than the neon: minds you can break into, a vertical city to climb, and combos you build yourself.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.

Tormented Souls price: a horror game that stopped moving

The Tormented Souls price has not budged in six weeks of our readings. What that means for buying it, and whether the 2025 sequel is the better purchase instead.
