In a lot of horror games, developers instill fear in the hearts of players by making them feel helpless. There’s lots of horror games where players have no recourse against the game’s monsters. All they can do it stay quiet, hide, and pray that the monsters don’t notice them. Returnal may have horror elements, but it’s not one of those games. It’s a sci-fi shooter that promises lots of combat, and intense combat at that....
The cast of One Piece is filled with characters who possess a number of over the top anime power-ups, many of which are hard to emulate in Dungeons & Dragons.

Brook joins the Straw Hat Pirates during the Thriller Bark arc, where he is trapped on an island, due to having his shadow stolen from him....
