Stellar Tactics

I bought this game last night, it was cheaper than my takeaway. I ate the takeaway whilst it downloaded. I have only three hours on record as I write this - I cleared the first section, that I might call the prologue, or tutorial, (It’s not just a tutorial it’s real content) - and I had just gotten into the next part of the game. To say I’m excited is an understatement. Maybe it’s just the right match for my peculiar tastes or whatever, I don’t know, but I enjoyed very much the first introductory, prologue like, tutorial-like bit of the game. I’m really not paying much interest in work today and am just trying to get as much info from the dev twitter, this forum, etc. A game’s not captured my imagination and enthusiasm like this for a long while.

This is how old school gaming used to be.

You had to play the game, and “do your time”.

So far, my time has been well spent. The game is rough yes, but it’s ample for what the game is trying to achieve. Here is what that achievement is:

Pack all them goodies off of them table top RPG’s we played in the 90’s, and make them appear on the screen. If you want what a “vintage style 90’s tabletop game” feels like on the screen, play it.

So them smart dev’s did just that.

Yes, it can be frustrating testing new software, sending feedback with the right intention is difficult, especially since there is no macro coded yet with the “insta help section”. Play the game for a bit, and stumble around in it. I followed the tutorial, and decided that fun is what we as the gamer make the game.

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

TL;DR - I loved it, but it is rough in some areas. The people complaining about it being a d20 game are dumb for buying a pathfinder game and expecting it not to be. I love it.

Good -

Fun gameplay, decently implemented from pnp.

There’s a ton to do (for most part, more under bad).

The VA’s are great, when the lines are voiced.

The replayability is off the chart, I am on my 3rd playthrough and not bored of it at all.

SO many choices that can make one playthrough completely different than the first.

A Quick Summary:

Wrath of the Righteous, in a nut-shell, is an excellent party based RPG. It uses the pathfinder system which allows for very complex character builds. The overall story is quite good, and the graphics are definitely up to date with modern RPGs.

It does have bugs, but the developer has been fixing them. While the worst bugs have been fixed, there are still quite a few minor ones. I am sure given time that they too will be fixed.

The Good:

The Pathfinder RPG system. In most CRPGs I have played in recent years, the character building is fairly simple. You pick a druid or a fighter which comes with a few basic skills or abilities, then every few levels you may pick a few more. With the Pathfinder system you have a plethora of choices and other classes to mix and match in. Even basic classes have 4 variations, not to mention feats and mythic powers.

The Red Solstice

The Red Solstice

I’ll skip the stuff about it beeing 8 player coop and sooo on and start talking about the stuff that might not be mentioned as often in short reviews:

The game offers multiple difficulties.. however the base difficulty is intended to be rather challenging for Players.

Which is definitly a good thing since it’s all about improving your own skill and after many defeats rewarding yourself with your very first win… somewhat darksouls-esque..


Classes:

So far there’s a total of 8 classes and depending on what the player wishes to accomplish every class has one or more distinctive roles.(Tank, Healer, DmgDealer,Scout….)

I played this game when it first came out and I immediately fell in love with it.

It’s a slick tactical shooter. With hordes of alien zombies trying to kill you. Meanwhile your team of husky voiced men attempt to complete your objectives.

Again it’s a great game. I stopped playing it for some time and decided to get back into it and immediately fell back in love.

Great set of classes

Assault-great all rounder very good beginner class. he’s great with light weapons and rifles and he even smokes a cigar. Do you want to live forever?

Chinese Paladin:Sword and Fairy 6

Chinese Paladin:Sword and Fairy 6

One of the best story driven rpgs ever. I started playing chinese/taiwanese rpgs just about two months ago with Xuan Yuan Sword Ex: The Gate of Firmament and was overwhelmed by it’s story, character development and design (places and enemies are just artworks) and I thought there won’t be any other game as good as this one. Luckily I was so wrong.

The story of CP 6 ist even better (in my opinion). It is an amazing and a huge one. Many twists and developments. The main characters are all very interesting and their background stories very intriguing (Ok, Ju Shifang was not my favourite but the other ones are incredible). In the beginning I needed some time to grow fond of the characters but after some time I loved them. The most interesting one was perhaps Xian Qing (the wolf demon), although his story could have been more elaborate.

So disappointed. BUT I love this game too much.

Been a fan of Chinese Paladin ever since a kid…Been watching Chinese Paladin taiwanese dramas and loved every series, especially the one starring Crystal Liu Fei and Hu Ge.

:l Have been waiting many years for an english translation of CP games.

One of the main characters is 15-16….and the guy that likes her is like around 20??? What, haha. There needs to be a character history list about these heros. Its weird…

The game is so glitchy. Why hasn’t there been a patch released yet?

Creas

Creas

Synopsis

On a rainy night, Max finds himself in front of his desk immersed in his drawings as usual, he has difficulty stopping, bewitched by this obsession to recreate the creatures that haunts his mind. He eventually gave in to exhaustion and found his bed. The next day, he glimpses a stranger through his window who seems to be spying on him and decides to pursue him through the forest behind his home. Unaware, he is about to find himself in a conflict that endangers the survival of mankind, and even worse, he is the only person with the power to re-establish balance in the universe.

Universe

A young man discovers that the creatures of his imagination actually exist. They are called Creas and live on a planet called Ostral. The problem is, the Creas mysteriously teleport to Earth. He will then discover the secrets of an ancient civilization which would be the creators of humans as well as the Creas. They are called the Husters, named Creators by the Creas. Max is part of this lineage, he will have to uncover the reason why these creations suddenly appear on Earth and that the preservation of the balance between these 2 races relies on him.

Gameplay

The menu has been revised to look like a digital music player (Ipod), we find all the basic functions, except the equipment which is managed automatically, but also the objectives (Quests), Karma (Impact of moral choices) and even successes (Successes).

Combat

The combat system is turn-based. A rune system is included, it will be used to heal or revive the heroes during combat as well as to use bonuses that will improve the heroes stats. It is by attacking that the hero will fulfill the power of the rune that corresponds to his element.

By defending himself, he will be able to refill his energy which fuels the skills.

Variety

Creas also includes several other gameplay elements (Mini-games) which will change depending on the situations Max encounters. A racing system has been added

Choice

During the game, the player will have to make moral choices (Karma) which will sometimes affect the story as well as Max’s strengths and weaknesses.

Author’s comment

The current advancement represents the 1st act of Creas’s game, called ‘The arrival’.

Early Quest

Early Quest

In a world where heroes fail one after another, you are probably the last hope …

In this classic turn-based RPG you choose the path to take, but in any case there will be an unlikely enemy waiting for you …

Maybe?

WARNING: For the faint of heart, there will be plenty of chickens. Insured!

Did about 5 hours today and had a great time playing. It’s EA so not tons of content but it’s amusing the entire time.

Dialogue is pretty funny.

Graphics are good.

Game play was smooth.

The dungeons and weapons were fun to experience.

Some Frame rate hitching and invisible walls though.

Overall, I’m not sad I bought it and am looking forward to updates!

Lionheart: Legacy of the Crusader

Lionheart: Legacy of the Crusader

It’s a good game. It’s not great because… because the ending part of the game had to be rushed (studio ran out of funds) and it’s felt. Where Barcelona and surrounding area is lush with story with great amount of choices and consequences, somewhere after the middle the game becomes very linear with no consequences of any action you perform – or already have, minor or major. You can still influence the ending but it all feels so… well, cut, be it Good or Evil. Healthy imagination allows rich foresight into what it could’ve been and, and… Ah, the bitterness of bliss. The game is so close to awesome.

Real player with 64.2 hrs in game

This game is a bit of a mixed bag. The beginning in Barcelona is a lot of fun, visually appealing (despite aging poorly), decent voice acting and overall fun. There are issues in the start area, mainly talk your way out or fight it out. Many skills are totally irrelevant and the import/export mechanic allows for some rather interesting builds. After finishing France, the studio was running out of money and it shows, the voice acting almost totally disappears and the quests just become a slog through dungeons packed with monsters. It turns from a fun and reasonably light Diabloesqe RPG into a brutal slog that is a major pain in the A** to complete. If it was not for the easily abused import/export mechanic I would have never finished the game. BTW fix the texture bug on Windows 10 devices it’s frustrating to see, also so form of multiplayer servers would be greatly appreciated.
