I’m late to the party, but who thought Clair Obscur needed a Bennett Foddy climbing level with Cowboy Bebop music?

The people of Lumiose City are not alright

An NPC in Pokemon Legends: Z-A saying: “Sometimes being with others makes you feel more alone.”

An NPC in Pokemon Legends: Z-A saying: “Scraping by on Pokemon battling alone is a tough life.”

An NPC in Pokemon Legends: Z-A saying: “Everything that lives must die. It’s an immutable rule—and straying from it can only bring pain.”

An NPC in Pokemon Legends: Z-A saying: “What disappears is gone, and whatever’s left can only remain.”

Being in Pokémon’s version of Paris makes me want a Ratatouille remake but with a Zygarde cell instead of a rat

Zygarde Cell looks as the two main characters in Pokemon Legends Z-A fist bump

Two characters fist bump with the Prism Tower (ie Pokemon’s Eiffel Tower) in the background

I thrive from covering industry events, from conventions to invite-only press events. As tiring as it may be, I love to jump between appointments, and I'm gleeful at the prospect of asking deeper questions straight to developers and finding a compelling story out of it.

As a reviewer, I aim to look at unique angles, deeper into the intent and less at the surface level. I'm big into meta-criticisms, whether it's examining why we overuse the word "satisfied," or why we start having GotY discourse as early as January. www.chriscompendio.com/reviews/game...

This just about covers my bylines from the past six years. I've been in roles that had me write 5-10 news stories a day, attend cons to cover demos and interview devs, and manage a team of 30+ writers. I've worked on all levels: freelancer, staff, editor, and manager.
