I've been playing games for as long as I can remember. I particularly love the Hitman series, and Red Dead Redemption 2 is among the greatest gaming experiences of my life.
I'm drawn to the worlds, characters, mechanics, and small details that make a game memorable. Sometimes it's a story that stays with me. Sometimes it's the simple satisfaction of playing.
Why The Save Files?
Because I love talking about video games. I buy the games that interest me, play them, and want somewhere to share my thoughts afterward.
This is where I'll talk about the worlds, characters, mechanics and moments that have stayed with me — with all the enthusiasm, criticism and occasional obsession they deserve.
What you'll find here
Reviews of games I've played, retrospectives on old favourites, and personal stories about gaming. Beyond the Credits will be a place to look more closely at characters, storytelling, and game design.
I want to write about what worked, what didn't, and what I'll remember. I don't play games to review them. I write about them because I love playing them.
