Summary Daemon Targaryen, the Rogue Prince and one of the leading stars ofHouse of the Dragon, is a complicated character, to say the least, and it’s always hard to know what he will do next.

In Season 2 ofHouse of the Dragon, the disputed king consort has much more time on his hands than usual, and it’s interesting to think about what video games Daemon Targaryen would play during his downtime at Harrenhal if he was given the chance....

Why Starfield is Likely to Break One Skyrim DLC Tradition

Summary Starfieldwas an ambitious venture for developer, Bethesda, but in other ways, it felt like a retreat into safety. On one hand, giving players hundreds of planets to explore on their own ship was something new instead of theopen-world format ofThe Elder ScrollsandFallout. Still, its gameplay mechanics felt instantly familiar and outdated. This wasn’t a fate thatSkyrimseemed to suffer, as people were constantly satisfied by what that game provided. Multiple major DLC packs were released to help justify all that exploration long after the game first hit shelves, but while that strategy worked in 2011,Starfieldmight need to neglect the idea of several new expansions, instead focusing onShattered Space, the one confirmed piece of DLC content for the new Bethesda title....
