​While the inaugural season of Luke Cage was solid, it saw a steep drop in quality after the early exit of Mahershala Ali’s Cottonmouth. This season, the writers had to go an entire season without the excellent-but-underused villain and prove that the show could survive without the character. Thankfully, they did just that. The cast is given good material to work with, and they take it a step farther with their great performances. Supporting characters like Misty Knight and Shades get interesting subplots, and Bushmaster, the new antagonist, is particularly brilliant. Most importantly, though, Luke Cage himself is more interesting here than in his previous appearances. While it does suffer from having too many episodes and more than a few slow scenes, Luke Cage season 2 is still a must-watch for Marvel fans.

Set in post-war London during the year 1918, Vampyr puts players in the shoes of Dr. Jonathan Reid, a brilliant doctor-turned-Vampire. His journey consists of two major tasks: finding the Vampire who gave him eternal life and rescuing London from a deadly epidemic. With the story accompanied by action-oriented combat, a detailed open world, and a unique morality system, Life is Strange developer Don’t Nod has completely left their comfort zone with Vampyr. The resulting product might not be the best game of this year, but it’s certainly the most interesting one.

The future is here…the future is now. What if androids could service your every need, want, and desire? What if androids replaced humans? What if androids could develop human emotions, thought and logic and fight for their own freedoms and rights? The story of Detroit: Become Human explores all three of these simple, but philosophical questions along with a lot more and the context in the grey.
 
In Detroit: Become Human, you play as three androids: Connor, a straight-laced by-the-book android investigator; Kara, a simple housekeeper searching for a better life, and Markus, an android escaping to unite other androids against the system. While all three androids have different ambitions and goals, each story is defined with depth, meaning, sorrow, and every emotion in between and everything else dependent on player choice and how he/she wants the story to go.
