“Could a quality peripheral turn me into Michael Schumacher?”
PC Gamer US Edition|December 2021
Will a fancy wheel bring the Grand Prix, or the booby prize, in F1 2017?

“Could a quality peripheral turn me into Michael Schumacher?”

I got drunk once and an expensive, PC Gamer recommended steering wheel showed up a week later. I rationalized that it would help my wife to overcome her driving anxiety, but it turns out Euro Truck Simulator 2 doesn’t really help with that. British roads are already too narrow for an American who hit another car on her driving test, let alone when you’re backing up a lorry.

So, after a brief honeymoon, the wheel, gears, and pedals started getting in the way and were stored, temporarily, back in their box. The weeks became months, and you can guess the rest.

Special Report- Stacked Deck - Monster Train, a deckbuilding roguelike that firmly entrenched itself as the crown prince to the kingly Slay the Spire back in 2020, was the kind of smash success you might call Champagne Big.

Monster Train, a deckbuilding roguelike that firmly entrenched itself as the crown prince to the kingly Slay the Spire back in 2020, was the kind of smash success you might call Champagne Big. Four years later, its successor Inkbound’s launch from Early Access was looking more like Sandwich Big.I’m not just saying that because of the mountain of lamb and eggplants I ate while meeting with developer Shiny Shoe over lunch, to feel out what the aftermath of releasing a game looks like in 2024. I mean, have I thought about that sandwich every day since? Yes. But also, the indie team talked frankly about the struggle of luring Monster Train’s audience on board for its next game.
