Jim landed on the higher end for us at VG247, giving the game 4/5 stars in his review, which you can check out here. While Jim did make it clear that Star Wars Outlaws won’t win many Game of the Year awards due to a mixture of reasons, it still manages to capture a very particular Star Wars vibe that helps you feel young again – and it helps that the game looks great too.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings Still, Jim…
Read moreA sudden update to World of Warcraft: The War Within’s leveling experience has left the community torn, as it drastically impacts the amount of power characters decked out with gear from previous expansions have while making the journey from level 70-80.The reason for this change is clear. Characters coming in with full sets of high-level gear from old content were absolutely flying through leveling mobs without in a matter of seconds, totally stripping the leveling process of any challenge. This impacted group content too, as higher level characters in a party with lower level characters decked out in old-content gear would find themselves out DPS’d courtesy of power balancing.
