The history of gaming is filled with twists, a fascinating tale of ‘what ifs’ and ‘maybes’ that has culminated in the current console wars and exclusivity rights. One of the ‘what ifs’ comes in the form of the ‘Nintendo PlayStation’, and it really is a rabbit hole of a story. It’s jarring, isn’t it? To see the Super Nintendo controller with the PlayStation branding that we’ve now all come to know so well. How did it get there, and why?

Sekiro is one of those games where you never feel overpowered. Even if you make smart skill-tree choices and prioritize unlocking high-impact abilities (bless you, Shadowrush), it can still be a struggle to make tangible upgrade progress unless you grind in familiar areas or tread new ground with extreme caution. Players have had five years to narrow down the best farming spots for XP and Sen, and I’ve played the game enough times to toss my own two cents into the debate.

Mods are hardly new for Left 4 Dead 2, but since Valve has added full Steam Workshop support, it’s easier than ever to find and install user-created content. It’s as easy as locating a promising-looking mod within Steam and clicking the “subscribe” button. There are now so many games with Workshop support you can basically turn anything into an unrecognizable fiasco waiting to happen, and thankfully, Left 4 Dead 2 is no exception.
