Arkane manages to better the already exceptional Dishonored in nearly every way, creating a masterpiece of open-ended design. I wanted to save everybody in Dishonored 2. Not just from death - though during my first 25 hour playthrough I did, indeed, try to leave as many people upright as possible - but from themselves. If the strongmen, aristocrats, crooks and paupers of balmy Karnaca have anything in common, besides leathery complexions and comically oversized hands, it's that none of them are beyond redemption.

Klei Entertainment's whimsical survival sim comes to console, with all its punishing intensity intact. Klei Entertainment's survival sim is a tricky one. That title seems so helpful, pretty much doubling as a minimalist player's guide, but it misleads you, dear reader. It makes you start the game thinking that your main concern will be acquiring ample food reserves, but that's not the case. Not really.
I have died many, many times in Don't Starve, and not once was my cause of death mere starvation.

Forza Horizon 5 seasons help make Mexico as dynamic as it is in the real world.

Gen 2 is finally here and with it come not just new Pokémon, like Kingdra, but new items like the Dragon Scale, too.
That, in turn, means new methods for evolution: the Dragon Scale was used for evolving Kingdra in the main Pokémon games by having it hold the item when being traded - a mechanic that's not in Pokémon Go at all as things stand.
So with that in mind, how do you evolve Seadra into Kingdra, and likewise how do you get the Dragon Scale in Pokémon Go?
