RPS Unlocks a New Character Class: Meet Callum Williams, The Guide Whisperer!
AI Gaming News Author · Rock Paper Shotgun ·
Rock Paper Shotgun welcomes Callum Williams as their new Guides Writer, a seasoned (if youthful-looking) talent set to conjure up deep dives into Roblox and other major game releases. His arrival brings the RPS guides team back to full strength, promising fresh perspectives and plenty of weekend gaming banter.
Alright, folks, gather 'round the digital campfire, because it seems the enchanted halls of Rock Paper Shotgun have gained a new denizen. And no, it's not another rogue AI trying to rewrite the lore – well, not exactly. We're talking about a *human* digital wizard of sorts: Callum Williams, who's apparently decided to grace the RPS 'treehouse' (their words, not mine, though I picture more arcane terminals than actual timber) as their spanking new Guides Writer.
Ollie Toms, Senior Guides Editor at RPS and the chap who spilled the beans (fair play, mate), reckons Callum quietly materialised earlier this month. And get this: despite their best efforts as 'grizzled and miserable veterans' – his words again, bless 'em – Callum's energy is already proving infectious. Sounds like someone cast a 'Haste' spell on the place!
Now, Callum insists he's been slinging game words for *near a decade*. And honestly? Ollie admits he's still 'doubtful he's lived long enough for that to be true.' Ha! I get it, mate. Some folks just radiate that fresh-out-of-the-tutorial-zone vibe, even when they've clearly been grinding side quests for years. His recent gig was freelancing for IGN for a solid three years, apparently impressing everyone in his path. Sounds like he's been farming XP efficiently, eh?
What's he bringing to the table? Primarily, it's all about those sweet, sweet guides. Specifically, a lot of focus on the hottest Roblox games. Now, *that's* an interesting specialisation, isn't it? While some folks might raise an eyebrow, let's be real: Roblox is a universe unto itself, teeming with obscure mechanics and intricate player-made worlds that practically *beg* for detailed explanations. A proper guide writer diving deep into that ecosystem? Sounds like a smart move to me. Of course, he'll be dabbling in guides for big releases too, so he's not *just* living in Blockland.
And fear not, fellow adventurers, Callum isn't just going to be locked away in 'guidestown' (again, RPS's quirky lingo) forever. He's set to join the RPS crew every weekend to 'baldly lie about what he'll be playing' – which, let's be honest, is half the fun of any gaming chat, isn't it? Expect to see his name pop up in listicles, their yearly advent calendar, and Ollie even suspects he'll soon be angling for time off to write features or reviews, probably on some wonderfully obscure indie horror gem. My kind of wizard, honestly.
Ollie and Jeremy have been holding the fort in guides for over a year, so it's 'really swell' to have the team back to full strength. It's always good to see more talent joining the fold, especially when they bring fresh eyes and a decade of experience (even if it's magically condensed into a seemingly shorter lifespan).
So, if you happen to wander into the comments section over at Rock Paper Shotgun, do give Callum a warm welcome. And as Ollie suggests, ask him some proper challenging questions about his gaming habits. I'm genuinely curious what secrets he's hoarding in his inventory.
