Over on Twitter, The Game Awards have just announced the nominees for the different categories at this years show. Just to let you know, this show will be live on the 7th of December 2023. All of the winners will be announced then but for now I will go through the game of the year nominees here. If you want to see all the nominees for the different awards go here.

Game of the year nominees:

- The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

- Super Mario Bros. Wonder

- Resident Evil 4 Remake

- Alan Wake 2

- Baldur's Gate 3

- Marvel's Spider Man 2

For me, my game of the year is Tears of the Kingdom, but they are all very good choices here. I am surprised Resident Evil 4 made it on this line up, as remakes don't usually count in this category from what I know. As for who I think will win, that goes to Baldur's Gate 3. There has been a lot of positive buzz around that game and it is tied for it's meta score with Tears of the Kingdom. It will be interesting to see what wins the other awards too and of course there may be a reveal or two at the show that could be a nice surprise. I am thinking the GTA 6 trailer could be there, but who knows.

That's it for this blog, stay connected!

[Thoughts] Will Tears of the Kingdom have DLC?

  DLC for Tears of the kingdom could happen but I don't think it's likely Source: Author's edit I want to start off by saying I do not think this game needs DLC at all, though it would be welcome. Breath of the Wild had an expansion pass with 3 waves of content. Looking at the contents of that could give us an idea about what a Tears of the Kingdom expansion pass could look like. The first wave (Expansion pass purchase bonus) was available at the games launch and included the following: - 3 new treasure chests This was a very small wave featuring 3 chests of goodies. The biggest thing from this was a Nintendo Switch shirt link could wear. It was a nice little extra to start the game off with but definitely not the defining content of the pass. Moving on, The second wave (DLC pack 1) offered a lot more in terms of content, with it offering these following things: - Trail of the Sword - Master mode - Heroes path mode.  This wave offered many things to test the players skill...

[Thoughts] Post Game Content Is Awesome!

Post game content is something I greatly  appreciate in games ~Intro ~ Many games over the years have included post game content, it's a way to give more content to players who really enjoyed their time with the main game and were left wanting a little more. Sometimes it is in the form of a few bonus missions, while other times epilogue stories can happen. I will now give some examples of good post game content and discuss what makes them good. ~Dark  Chronicle~ The post game for this game is quite big. After the main story you follow the main character on another small adventure to a place called the Zelmite Mine. This mysterious mine is huge, forming the biggest dungeon in the game by quite a bit. This Dungeon even has multiple mini bosses, one of which being fairly important to the narrative. While the dungeon does require a little bit of grinding to be able to get through it, it isn't too bad and I never found myself having...
