Renier is a jack of all trades and a master of some. A published author and poet, Renier understands the art of weaving a narrative, or so the critics say. As a professional overreactor and occasional debater of existentialist philosophy, Renier thrives on games where choices actually matter, e.g. Life Is Strange, Mass Effect, and Heavy Rain. Renier often finds himself in a game of throes on GeForce NOW, sobbing like a Sicilian widow because life is definitely way too strange sometimes.

Sony PlayStation – the ubiquitous reminder of our collective childhood memories. Iconoclastic in itself, yet also self-indulgent enough to shrug off its own failures, Sony PlayStation evolved into Cher and Kate Bush’s love child – subjectively relevant.

The Epic Games Store, also known as The Fortnite People’s Free Game of The Week Store, has kept itself relevant and inclusive in the industry by releasing a smorgasbord of free AAA and indie games every week. Free. Literally. Akin to sloth foreplay, Epic likes to build the feverish anticipation with their “Mystery Game” […]

When Google Stadia made its debut in November 2019, it aimed to redefine the gaming landscape by offering seamless game streaming devoid of traditional hardware constraints.

In the stained halls of the GeForce NOW Subreddit, I posed an important question: “What do you love/hate about GeForce NOW?”. I expected a couple of replies and a comment or two about how I am ruining GFN for everyone and murder and all that. Little did I know that opening Pandora’s Box held more […]

In the pantheon of video game heroines, Lara Croft has been reinvented more times than a chameleon in a rainbow, but none so dramatically as in the 2013 Tomb Raider reboot. Gone are the days of polygonal bosoms and dual-wielding pistols with infinite ammo. Instead, we’re treated to a gritty survival story that could make […]

!!!Warning: Potential Spoiler Alert!!! Aside from a small community of post-apocalyptic potato farmers, I don’t know many people who outwardly dislike the Tomb Raider games. While the debate regarding Lara Croft’s character still rages on, like a hormonal teenager undergoing a poster-ban in their room, the question remains: is Lara an exploitative fantasy of the […]
