TAGN Fantasy Critic League 2026 – Week Fourteen with Super Meat Boy 3D and RACCOIN We are now into the second quarter of the 2026 league. For week fourteen we were expecting two titles to launch while waiting on scores for at least one title from week thirteen.  But first, where …

TAGN Fantasy Critic League 2026 – Week Thirteen and MLB The Show 26 Takes a Dive Week thirteen had just one game set to launch, which seemed like a recipe for a quiet week in our league.  Would one title upset the standings? As it turned out, not so much.  But that didn’t…

Syp finds WoW Classic oddly soothing at level 35: simple quest-by-quest progress, pretty zones, and fewer “keep up with everything” chores—plus a gripe that Cataclysm’s world changes still feel wrong. Roger skips the usual year-end game list and instead vents about the industry’s corporate mediocrity—creativity exists, but greed, exploitation, and consequence-free management keep smothering it. Kimimi digs into Power Dolls 4’s push to make its action-leaning formula actually work—clearer briefings, smarter loadout UI, drag-select—then faceplants into an early evac mission that barely teaches Shintar detours into WoW MoP Classic during retail downtime, reacts to server merges and PvP-realm changes, hits level 90 faster than expected, and marvels at how “modern” and nostalgic it feels. Belghast and crew bounce from Q-Up’s League of Legends commentary to Path of Exile II build frustration, a Warframe resurgence, and what “MMO-adjacent” multiplayer feels like post-MMORPG. Wilhelm wraps the 2025 TAGN Fantasy Critic League, showing how early projections got dunked by reality as Bhagpuss climbed from predicted mid-pack to a wire-to-wire-ish win over p0tsh0t. Tobold reviews Forest Shuffle: Dartmoor as a luck-and-synergy card game with smoother balance than the original (less “wolves win”), though experienced players can starve the discard pool and scoring仍 Anarchae’s week-4 digest mixes holiday decompression, “clew” etymology from detective fiction, reality-TV fatigue with Traitors USA, and a stack of festive watching/reading notes and links. Warner returns from a grandkid-watching hiatus with a grab bag of links, from “a new Dickens” and Christmas politics to unsung tech maintainers, capitalism book buzz, and cozy champagne-and-fries. Dave Winer pitches a low-drama nightly Scripting News email roundup—no obnoxious exit popups, everything from the previous day, and a clean unsub link if you’re done. Tofutush looks back on a string of childhood apartments and small…
