If your weekend plans have been derailed by bad weather (or a busted heater), Rock Paper Shotgun has a familiar solution: crawl back under the duvet and catch up on longform writing.

### A Weekend Ritual for Longform Fans
RPS has published a new edition of The Sunday Papers, its recurring column designed to point readers toward thoughtful articles and essays—an intentionally slow-paced antidote to the week’s constant news cycle.

Rather than focusing on a specific game announcement or industry shake-up, the latest entry leans into the column’s cozy framing: staying inside, staying warm, and letting good writing do the heavy lifting while you deal with the basics (food, tea, and the unavoidable mid-morning bathroom trip).

### Why These Roundups Still Matter
In an era where gaming coverage is increasingly optimized for speed and social feeds, curated reading lists like The Sunday Papers help keep longform games journalism visible—and remind audiences that criticism, reporting, and essays can be as much a part of the hobby as patch notes and trailers.
