Metaphor Made Me Confront My Atlus RPG Burnout
Metaphor: ReFantazio is undoubtedly a top five game of the year. But it also made me face a harsh reality; I’m completely burnt out on Atlus RPGs. At least the Persona-style ones. Here’s why.

I Miss Uncharted (The Mismanagement of Sony IP)
It’s been 7 years since Uncharted 4 received its extremely fun DLC, The Lost Legacy. Where the hell is Uncharted 5? Actually, where is most of Sony’s IP?
