This episode was supposed to be all about Assassin’s Creed Shadows—you know, stealth kills, Yasuke, katanas, the usual assassin goodness. But then Schedule 1 came crashing into my life like a kilo of coke through a windshield, and suddenly I’m running a full-blown narcotics empire from a dingy motel room, questioning my morals and beating lazy staff into a lake. It’s that kind of week.

Before diving into the madness of Schedule 1, I catch you up on this month’s gaming chaos:

• Bethesda surprise-dropped the Oblivion Remaster in Unreal Engine 5, and it’s gloriously buggy, beautiful, and nostalgia-fueled.
• NVIDIA graphics cards are literally catching fire, and I’ve got thoughts (and burns) about what’s going on with their latest driver disasters.
• DOOM: The Dark Ages is taking us medieval with maces, flaming shields, and heavy lore—because who needs modern guns when you’ve got rage and chainmail?
• The Nintendo Switch 2 is real, expensive, and coming soon (probably), with pre-orders leaking via Walmart.
• Cyberpunk 2077 running on handheld hardware? Yep—confirmed for Switch 2, thanks to DLSS magic.

Then it's time for the main event: Schedule 1—a hilariously twisted drug empire sim that’s part cozy tycoon, part Breaking Bad fever dream. From growing weed and crafting custom narcotics with names like “OG Slime,” to unlocking meth labs, cocaine networks, and dealer management, the game lets you build your empire with zero shame and full satire. You’ll feel bad... until the money rolls in.

It’s unfiltered, addictive, ridiculous—and I’m 100% here for it.

Welcome back, everyone! It’s been a while, but we’re back with a vengeance. There haven’t been many great games lately, but two big ones just dropped – Sniper Elite Resistance and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. One of them is worth every second, and the other… well, you’ll see.

Gaming News Rundown

🔹 GTA VI on PC? – Take-Two is back at it, dodging questions like a trained spy agency. Will GTA VI come to PC? Probably, but they won’t say when. Get ready for another year-long wait while console players sit back with their popcorn.

🔹 Roblox’s Growing Pains – The digital babysitter for kids is tightening security (finally). Great news for parents, but bad news for Roblox, which now has to deal with an SEC investigation. Because of course, they do.

🔹 Nintendo Switch 2 Tease – Nintendo continues to keep pricing under wraps like it’s the Krabby Patty formula. Scalpers are sharpening their knives, and gamers are preparing for pre-order chaos.

🔹 RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic on Switch – Time to charge $20 for bathroom access and send guests flying! The nostalgia trip continues as this classic gets a physical release.

🔹 PSN Outage Drama – Sony’s servers went down, and everyone had 2011 flashbacks. Sony’s response? “Nothing to see here.” But do we buy it? Nope.

Main Reviews

🎯 Sniper Elite Resistance – How to Ruin a Franchise

Sniper Elite has officially shit the bed.

• Recycled maps (seriously, they copy-pasted missions from Sniper Elite 4).

• A.I. dumber than a sack of bricks—you can dance in front of them, and they still won’t notice.

• Gunplay is somehow both janky and boring.

• Movement is laughable—why is our sniper climbing vines like Lara Croft?

• Voice acting? Oh wait, there is none. Just awkward grunting.

• The pacing is so bad, you’ll be struggling to stay awake.

Verdict? This is a masterclass in failure. Save yourself the pain and replay Sniper Elite 4 instead.

⚔️ Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 – A Brutal, Hilarious Masterpiece

Now THIS is how you make an RPG.

• You start as a noble knight… but within an hour, you’re naked, humiliated, and thrown into medieval chaos.

• The game pulls zero punches—you will die. A lot.

• Freedom to be a complete bastard—murder, robbery, and feeding a man’s dog back to him? Sure.

• NPCs actually react—walk into town covered in blood, and you’ll be treated like the psychopath you are.

• The world is immersive, and every choice matters.

• Gambling is addictive, and the economy is brutal—money is hard-earned.

• Combat is unforgiving but rewarding—no button-mashing here, just pure medieval swordplay.

Verdict? Kingdom Come 2 is an absolute gem and a strong contender for Game of the Year.

Final Thoughts

• Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a must-play.

• Sniper Elite Resistance should have never been released.

• GTA VI PC gamers… we suffer once again.

• Nintendo Switch 2—just tell us the damn price already!

That’s it for this week! What are your thoughts? Let me kno

Episode Highlights
In this episode, we take a detailed look at Dragon Age: Veilguard, a game packed with both highs and lows. Whether you’re new to Dragon Age or a hardcore fan, there’s a lot to uncover here. Here’s what we cover:

• Technical Performance: Despite some minor screen tearing, Veilguard runs smoothly, even on ultra settings with ray tracing and DLSS enabled. BioWare impresses with a DRM-free release, though the lack of a pre-download option led to a frustrating wait on launch day.
• Character Creation: Veilguard gives players a robust customization suite with body shape options and some nostalgic touches for returning fans, like customizing the Inquisitor’s look and romance choices from Inquisition.
• Visuals: With stunning, detailed environments, the visuals in Veilguard are solid, though not groundbreaking. The “Hollywood” white teeth on all characters stand out in the game’s otherwise medieval-inspired world.
• Gameplay & Combat: The combat combines elements from God of War, Mass Effect, and Dragon Age II, creating a fast-paced experience with a large skill tree for diverse builds. Unfortunately, there’s no direct control of companions, a letdown for long-time fans.
• Classes & Specializations: Players can choose from three main classes (Warrior, Rogue, Mage), each with unique specializations. The skill tree is extensive, with specializations unlocked at level 20.
• Accessibility & Exploration: With multiple options to customize HUD, difficulty, and more, Veilguard makes the experience accessible. Exploring off the beaten path is rewarding, revealing hidden side quests and treasures.
• Dialogue & Writing: The game starts at a breakneck speed, with a rushed intro and dialogue wheel that sometimes misses the intended tone. Act 1 is a grind, but Act 2 showcases BioWare’s strengths, with meaningful choices that shape the world.
• Lore: While the game has moments of rich lore, some areas feel underdeveloped. Mystical elements like the eluvians now seem commonplace, slightly diminishing their intrigue.
• Final Thoughts: Veilguard isn’t perfect, but its charm shines through. For BioWare, this feels like a fresh start, and while hardcore fans may struggle with the tonal shifts, it’s still worth playing for the main story and RPG mechanics.

Other Highlights
We also cover why this week’s episode is late, dive into news stories like Tony Todd’s passing, Infinity Nikki's huge pre-registration numbers, Compulsion Games’ upcoming documentary, and more.

In this episode of Gamer Chronicles, we break down the highly anticipated Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, exploring everything from its nostalgic yet chaotic campaign to the frantic multiplayer mode and impressive Zombies experience.

The episode kicks off with a roundup of the latest gaming news, covering:

• Monster Hunter Wilds struggling with performance issues in its PC beta.
• BioWare’s surprising decision to shift focus from Dragon Age: The Veilguard DLC to the next Mass Effect.
• Disappointing reception of Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered on PC due to performance and accessibility issues.

• The latest on Roblox’s massive user growth, Ubisoft’s quiet NFT game release, Dragon Quest 3's HD-2D remake, and Turtle Beach’s new Stealth Pivot controller.

Then, we dive into Black Ops 6:

• Campaign: A classic spy-thriller feel with fun missions and 90s nostalgia, featuring choices and creative missions like infiltrating a gala with Bill Clinton.
• Multiplayer: Introducing omni-movement, which adds speed and chaos to gameplay but raises challenges for snipers and cross-play balance.
• Zombies Mode: A fresh take on classic Zombies with new maps, enemies, and exciting features like exfil mechanics.
• Visuals and Sound: High production values shine, despite some technical bugs and clunky interface issues.

We wrap up with final thoughts on Black Ops 6’s bold return to form, packed with intensity, innovation, and nostalgic charm, making it a wild ride for long-time fans and newcomers alike.
