What Non-Live Service Game Would Actually Make For A Good One?
Bad live-service practices in the industry aside, it'd be cool to see a game like Astro Bot get updated every once in a while with new worlds!
Does FragPunk Have Too Many Micro-Transactions?
Some people prefer a game that's free-to-play with a ton of micro-transactions, but does FragPunk have too many to be enjoyable? Given that most Lancers are locked behind a paywall, do you think this will be good or bad for the health of the game?
Would you have played the canceled Twisted Metal live-service game?
According to a new report, the canceled live-service Twisted Metal game would have been a battle royale. What's more, there would have been third-person combat elements, with players seemingly being able to jump out of their cars. Would you have played that version of Twisted Metal or should a revival of the game stick to simple car combat?
Should Cheaters Be Given a Second Chance?
Earlier this week, Epic Games announced that beginning in April, those who've been caught cheating will be given a second chance. Instead, they'll get a one-year matchmaking ban, but can still talk and chat with others players. Should those players be welcomed back into the game or should their bans stay in affect?
If DC Characters Were An Option, Which New Heroes Should Be Added To Marvel Rivals?
I know, I know, the game is called Marvel Rivals. But if heroes (or villains) from DC Comics could make an appearance on the roster, who do you think would be the most fun?
Did you pull for Tribbie in Honkai: Star Rail?
Tribbie is arguably one of the most broken support units in Honkai: Star Rail, but she's also just before the release of Mydei, Castorice, and Anaxa. Did you decide to get Tribbie or are you planning to save for one of them?

Do You Think Perks Will Be Good Or Bad For Overwatch 2?
Perks are a fun new way to customize your playstyle in Overwatch 2, but in a game so heavy with hard counters, will this be healthy for the game at large?

Which Marvel Rivals Characters Would You Like To See Get Funko Pops Next?
The hero shooter's first Pops have been revealed - Iron Man, Magneto, Doctor Doom, and a super size Galacta. There are bound to be a lot more following in their tiny, collectible footsteps, though.
Who Would You Have Wanted To See In MultiVersus If It Wasn't Going Offline Again?
Well, to the surprise of pretty much no one, MultiVersus is once again going offline in a few months - this time seemingly for good. With that impending death in mind and so many Warner Bros. characters unanswered for, who stands out as the biggest missed opportunity to you?
What Makes A Fortnite Skin "Sweaty"?
I'll let you in on a secret: I maintain the list on our site that tackles the "Most Tryhard Skins" in Fortnite. I have talked to quite a few Fortnite enthusiasts, read tens of thousands of words on the matter, and listened to hours of people talk about the subject. While there are some things I see get brought up a lot: the skins are often lean (making them harder to target), many of them have simple color schemes (making them easier to blend into certain environments), and others are seemingly championed by players that are seen as particularly sweaty, it still feels like a lot of the so-called tryhard skins break these rules (like the Peter Griffin skin, which I've heard many people sweat up and down is a sweaty skin).? What are the parameters in your mind? Is this a situation where you know it when you see it? What defines a sweaty skin for you? Or do you reject the premise altogether??

Was Evolve Ahead Of Its Time?
It was one of the first big asynchronous service games. Looking back, it feels like it did most things right, but the market wasn't ready for it. What do you think? Was it simply too ahead of its time??
Where Did MultiVersus Go Wrong?
MultiVersus had a large roster filled with pretty fun characters, it had a familiar gameplay style, but played differently enough from Smash to feel unique, and it gathered a ton of momentum in the beta. Where did it go wrong? Was it the wonky balance patches? Did you find the monetization in the relaunch to be too sleazy? Give us your thoughts!
Is Garry's Mod A Game?
To me, it's always felt more like a platform-within-a-platform.? I wouldn't call Garry's Mod a game in the same way I wouldn't call Roblox a game - it's a means of playing other games, or of just messing around.? Do you agree?? Sound off below!
