As I watched Miles Morales swing by, snowflakes danced around the streetlights, and it just felt… right. Down below, people were bundled up, music was pumping from a little corner store, and Harlem was glowing, even with the cold. The city’s energy matched Miles’ speed and spirit – it felt so full of life and hope! It’s his neighborhood, you know? It’s not quite the New York Peter Parker used to swing around, it feels… different now. More his. It really feels like home for Miles, and watching him protect it just feels special.

It’s interesting to consider how The Lord of the Rings would change if Saruman hadn’t turned evil. If he’d remained a force for good, like Gandalf, the story would be drastically different. While it’s easy to imagine changes within the existing narrative – the Fellowship avoiding Moria, Gandalf not becoming the White Wizard, Boromir surviving – the truth is much more significant. If Saruman stayed loyal, the events of The Lord of the Rings wouldn’t have occurred at all. Instead, Bilbo Baggins would have been the one to carry the Ring to Mordor.
Honestly, dark fantasy is everywhere these days. It feels like a huge part of what’s popular in fantasy games right now.

And don’t even get me started on all the game adaptations of books and other stuff – some are great, but a lot… well, they don’t quite hit the mark.
