TheGamer(Dad): Navigating Fatherhood & Gaming

By November 3, 2025No Comments

Fast-forward 15 years later, and I’m standing in the delivery room holding my newborn son, Declan James. It was surreal to finally meet him and sing to him while bouncing him to sleep… er, _ trying _ to bounce him to sl

From the start, everyone assumed that Red Dead Online would be a harder sell to the general consumer as it doesn’t have the fast sports cars and modern perks of Grand Theft Auto . What it does have is a genuine western multiplayer experience that isn’t common in the modern age of video games. As time has gone on, the mode has transformed from a lackluster product to one with lots going for it. Look for Red Dead Online to improve leaps and bounds in the coming ye

Most people understand the ties between Arthur and John Marston, or either of them and Dutch Van Der Linde. The connection that’s not often talked about is the one between Sadie Adler and Micah. At the beginning of the game, he’s the one who points out Sadie’s home as a point of interest. This cascades into the series of events that follow, but it ties him to her from the start. That’s why it’s so fulfilling when she’s there with John when they take out Micah and make him draw his final breath in the snow-covered mounta

This means Red Dead Online players can expect the open world game crafting guide-world elements to be expanded upon going forward, hopefully working to enhance the online player’s individual experience. Butchard went so far as to admit that the developers want to look into incorporating properties, so players wouldn’t necessarily need to set up a homestead at a camp, but would also have the option to buy a plot of land. He added that they still want to prioritize the camp, too, so they’ll likewise be incorporating expansions and updates specifically to entice players to continue utilizing with their camp like a proper outlaw. Pica added another suggestion, saying it may also be possible in the future for bounty hunters to become part of the police, saying, ” We love the idea that at some point a highly ranked bounty hunter could become a lawman .” Similarly, she said one idea for a new role that’s on the drawing board is a photograp

There has been no official word if Rockstar Games plans to make remastered versions of RDR or RDR2 for the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X. However, there has been some strong evidence suggesting there may indeed be plans to make a next-gen version of one or both of the games in the Red Dead Redemption franchise. For instance, alleged leaked information from earlier this year suggested that Rockstar was currently working on a remastered version of Red Dead Redemption, which would include new missions and gameplay. Later claims, prompted by a leaked Amazon listing which seemed to show that both RDR and RDR2 were getting remastered versions, seemed to back this up. If either of these rumors turns out to be true, players can expect Red Dead Online to also get an update, likely with new open-world content to explore and enhanced graph

I’ve been a gamer all my life. From the Sega Genesis I got for Christmas in 1990, to the PlayStation 5 that will be lovingly adorned on the desk next to my gaming PC, “Gamer” is a title I’ve proudly associated myself with since I was 5-years-old. I’ve held other titles throughout my life, including Skater, Athlete, and Musician; I graduated college with a Political Science degree, but certainly never considered myself a Student (sorry, M

Desmond was the main character for the first five Assassin’s Creed games as gamers explored his ancestry through the animus. Assassin’s Creed 3 finished a major portion of the first civilization storyline, which came to a head with an end of the world thr

As cliche as “New Year, New Me” might be, I reprioritized my life. This time was different than any of my attempts prior, though, as every change I was making was in the interest of my son, instead of myself. “How can I be better for him?” “How can I make sure Declan grows up to be the person I truly believe he’s going to be – which is someone who is going to speak for those without a voice and change this world for the better?” These were the questions at the forefront of my m

Micah is just one of many performances in the game that are brilliantly acted by the cast. Peter Blomquist plays Micah and does a phenomenal job. He’s not new to Rockstar Games as he also played Dr. Harlan Fontaine in 2011’s L.A. Noire . As we’ll get into later, it’s hard to get an audience to truly hate a character. Video games as a medium are slowly reaching a point where the voice actors are getting the recognition they deserve, and that’s likely due to storytelling in video games increasing in quality almost exponentia
