In this episode of the Gman Reviews Podcast, I review Captain America: Liberty’s Torch, a Marvel audiobook that was not quite what I expected. Going in, I thought this would be a more traditional Captain America action story with Steve Rogers and Falcon taking on villains in a straightforward superhero adventure. Instead, Liberty’s Torch is much more of a political thriller about extremism, militi...

Felicity from Evil West is more than just a vampire villain. In this Gman Reviews podcast episode, we look at Felicity D’Abano, her backstory, her hatred of humanity, her connection to the vampire aristocracy, and the philosophy behind her role in Evil West. Evil West is a dark fantasy action game set in a supernatural version of the American frontier, where Jesse Rentier and the Rentier Institute...

Mouse P.I. For Hire and the Soul of Noir Is Mouse P.I. For Hire a true noir game — or just a shooter in a trench coat? In this episode, we break down whether Mouse P.I. For Hire earns its noir identity or hides behind the aesthetic. We get into the four pillars that define this game — boomer-shooter combat, platforming, noir storytelling, and detective mechanics — and ask the question most reviews...

In this episode of the Gman Reviews Podcast, I review Mouse PI, a stylish noir-inspired boomer shooter starring Detective Jack Pepper in a world of mice, corruption, clues, and cartoon chaos. I talk about why Mouse PI impressed me so much, from its fast-paced shooting and dash-based movement to its surprisingly strong detective story, excellent music, and bold black-and-gold cartoon noir presentat...

In this episode, I break down why I believe The Empire has the most essential hero roster in Total War: Warhammer 3. This isn’t about which faction has the most overpowered heroes in a vacuum. Instead, it’s about which faction relies on its heroes the most to function effectively. The Empire is a combined-arms faction built around coordination—infantry holding the line, artillery and gunpowder doi...

In this episode, I break down why I think The Empire has the most essential hero roster in Total War: Warhammer 3. This is not really about which faction has the most overpowered individual heroes. It is about which faction relies on heroes the most to make its armies function at their best. I go through why Warrior Priests, Empire Captains, Witch Hunters, Battle Wizards, and Engineers all play su...

In this lore-rich episode, we trace the tragedy of the Blood Angels from the martyrdom of Sanguinius at the Siege of Terra, through the gene-cursed Red Thirst and Black Rage, to the Devastation of Baal—and the dawn of the Primaris Space Marines.

LegendofTotalWar stepping away hits different. In this reaction, I talk about why his challenge runs, ruthless efficiency, and encyclopedic Total War knowledge made him a pillar of the community—even if Reddit was often divided. Love him or not, nobody matched his campaign mastery and problem-solving on Very Hard/Legendary. I also ask the uncomfortable question: outside of Total War: Warhammer… ha...

Hot take time: the Lizardmen might be Total War: Warhammer 3’s most boring campaign—not because they’re weak, but because they’re too complete.

What you’ll learn Why Lizardmen’s early game has...

We continue our series of guides to the characters of Tainted Grail with the Zealot class. This class is a very interesting change-up of the Sentinel as this class charges up the ultimate ability by discarding cards and power up the next hit by 50% by playing maneuver cards that stack. When playing the Zealot class like all Watchers of Tuathan it is vital to have your armour be as high as it possi...

We continue our series of guides to the characters of Tainted Grail with the Blood Mage class. This class is a very interesting change-up of the summoner as this class has the ability to heal itself but it also uses up its HP to summon minions and promote them. When playing the blood mage class it is vital to manage your HP and having more HP is better than having less. 00:00 General class discuss...

We continue our series of guides to the characters of Tainted Grail with the Pathfinder class.
