The RPS Selection Box: Brendan’s bonus games of the year 2024
Estimated reading time: 1 minute
I’m a sucker for a good first-person runabout. I don’t need to shoot, but it’s sometimes nice to get a sword, or a big whip. As long as I get to be immersed in an adventure. I think that’s the big theme of my selection box: being grounded within my player character. I want to feel what it’s like to hike through canyons with too much sellable loot in my backpack. I want to park my soul in the head of a scared Scotsman way out of his depth, hundreds of miles from shore. The closer I can comfortably fit in my character’s shoes, the more I seem to buy into the world they inhabit. Even if that world is constantly glowing a magnificent crimson.
