Children of Morta

Children of Morta

I’m a little mixed on this game overall. But I like it.

Children of Morta is an atmospheric-story-driven-diablo-lite-with-rogue-elements. But action rogue-lite works, too.

Premise: You’ll control the Bergson family, residents of Mount Morta. A threat known simply as the “Corruption” needs to be thwarted.

Structure:

You select a character and set off into a portal to fight the corruption. It has 3 main areas. Each harboring a spirit you need to free to aid you. Each area then has procedural levels within it.

! The last area is seems a bit inspired by the Dwemer Ruins of Elder Scrolls.. All the areas have a distinct feeling.

A hack-and-slash game with rogue-like elements, Children of Morta unfortunately didn’t provide me with any of the satisfaction associated with either genre.

I usually like to start with the positives but they’re scarce here. The pixel art looks excellent but even that is squandered in drab and uninspired levels, of which there are mainly only three types: a cave, a desert town and a volcanic industrial area.

The music, although competently made, sounded very unmemorable to me. None of the tracks were catchy or went beyond doing their job.

Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

WTF was that ending? Unfinished? Why make us play through all that and end it like crap?

I liked the game itself, didn’t really encounter any real bugs in my experience.

But I think this game gets so much hate because of the ending storyline. Like seriously, after all that time playing WTF was that ending?

I think I might have just joined this game at the right time. I didn’t play launch or early access. I kept an eye on the game and on the feedback it was getting back then and decided to wait it out. Then I basically forgot about it. A friend had the idea of giving it a look this week, and I’ve honestly been very pleasantly surprised. I played through the campaign and have now started on endgame. I definitely see myself putting a lot more time into this. If you’re a fan of this particular genre, you should give this a look now that they’ve had time to sort things out. My friends and I are all really enjoying it.

Kingdomfall

Kingdomfall

Where drakkars full of soldiers attack from the sea, giant trebuchets destroy castle walls, burying many warriors under the debris. All of that while the are simple soldiers, going through mud, fire, blood, trying to fight, survive and even win the battle. You are one of those soldiers. That’s what the Kingdomfall is about.

One of the most advanced player-skill based combat system which consists of simple attacks, strong attacks, dodges, counter-attacks, shield strikes, many types of melee and ranged weapons, from bows to deadly magic - it is designed to not limit you in any possible way, if you’re skilled enough you will have you’re chance to win.

IMPORTANT NOTE The game right now is in early access and will include only part of the future features to ensure everything works as expected. You can take a look at how most of the upcoming features may potentially work on the official YouTube page. They will be moved to the release version one by one when ready. Because of that the game will be available here at half price until full release.

Renown

Key Game Features:

*** Fast-paced medieval survival with a strong emphasis on melee combat.

What is Renown?

Renown is a multiplayer survival experience set in a vast and ever-changing medieval world. Players begin with nothing, gather resources, build a kingdom and fight to survive in the hopes of becoming renowned across the land. At its core, Renown is a first-person medieval fighting game, with a strong emphasis on competitive skill-based combat. 

Renown takes the most enjoyable and popular aspects from contemporary open-world survival games which include Building, Progression and Social Politics. These are then combined with close quarters, skill-based combat to create an immersive and engaging multiplayer experience. 

Key Game Features:

The three main gameplay features which act as the pillars of Renown are:

Combat

The combat system functions with a set of easy to learn, hard to master fighting mechanics. The system is also built so that it is very easy to understand, allowing new players to easily learn the basics. As players become comfortable with the system, their developing level of skill becomes a major source of enjoyment.

Building

The building system uses an easy-to-understand and deploy method. This allows for greater depth when creating both small and large castle or village-type structures. From a small house with only a door, players expand into fully customized castles, creating structures truly unique to the person’s ability and experience.

Raiding

The raiding system represents the pivotal activity that all types of players can undertake in-game. What’s the point in building a great castle if you can’t level someone else’s to the ground. In a way the players are always in an “Arms Race” to see who can build the strongest, smartest, and most awe-inspiring structures. We want to provide you with just as awe-inspiring weapons, siege engines and all the utilities required for an ongoing medieval war.

Darksiders Genesis

Darksiders Genesis

TL;DR

! Darksiders Genesis is a prequel spin-off that introduces new features while re-introducing countless aspects of the other games. If you’ve been a fan of the franchise at any point, you should definitely not skip this entry. If you’re a newcomer, this may be a good entry point.

If you expect Diablo in a Darksiders costume, you’re tragically mistaken.

»Seek out Samael. Unravel this plot. Serve the Balance. Show them the price… of defying the Council.«

I’ve completely fallen in love with this game. For a low-budget spin-off it is absolutely fantastic. I had never really even paid much attention to Darksiders but discovered this game during a Steam sale. It got my attention because I really dig the stylized look and feel of it.

First of all, I want to heavily emphasize this: Play the game with a friend. The game functions as a single player experience but it is very much designed to be a co-op game. I started playing on my own, enjoyed it, then recruited and started again with a friend and the experience got way better. Not that the game is bad on your own, its just more fun played as intended.

Fate/EXTELLA LINK

初步有些许不满的地方在于主线内容第一感觉被裁剪、压缩了太多东西。主题轴类似于有光明就有黑暗的这种形式,手柄方面又出现了无夜之国1同样的问题,不过官方人员在社区置顶帖给出了解决方案(若无效可以只勾选DS4控制器支持)。战斗细节上觉醒与真无双终于可以共存了,上一代游戏可是觉醒了后就放不了真无双了。现在总算可以了。片头CG掉帧明显(冬木市地图也掉帧)。游戏运行环境应该只是做了初步适配,等以后的进一步优化吧。

原本御主只能进戒指,现在可以以独立体的形式以总大将的身份参战指挥战斗并解除哑巴模式了。只是可能会发生各种突发状况需要救援,闪避终于不实用了。跟普通走路一样的速度,不像上个版本那样移动迅速了

敌方据点强度也被削弱很多,相对的己方剧情扣血速度被加快了。

似乎真正的剧情精华在后半部分,让人回想起了seed残酷的亚金•多维要塞攻防战。对拼宝具、两个印度籍的顶级英灵就这么两败俱伤,消失了,可惜dlc时装不是每个人都额外有花钱买的(现阶段只有女性英灵服饰、没有男性的)。以及御主也无法换外装,这很遗憾。

不过游戏相当于是融合了像是高达(据点)、大蛇(快攻技)、战国(一般招式)老真三(对招拼招、方技、蓄力技等)这四种无双的集合体等

GunZ 2: The Second Duel

GunZ 2: The Second Duel

I Hope someone will buy this super game, cause 2 companies havent done anything to commercialize it, its a unique game where only personal skillz matter, no sort of random luck for newbs, this game got a lot of hidden techniques that help Experienced players to play more fluid (and this is the best game for fluidity), you can jump on walls, you can shot/noscope when rising a wall, you can flip enemy in air and than, in a super reflex move, shot them, this game its a perfect Esport game, cause you need a super concentration for sniping in movement, you need mouse MuscolarMemory so you can use your third eye to shot… its a First person shooter game but the point perfectly in the middle of the screen allow you to think in first person (i hate shoulder view), you can change from sword to gun in time 0 allowing you to fast think when you need to get back and shot and stop ‘meleegangbang’ its the best game for keep the mind always ON cause you want to do better in every game and a newb will be impressionated watching pro players playn, so they get curious to know new techniques (that youtube teaches)…. im really sad of no updates in this game, im a bit angry because i have used some money on it.. its just because i want to grow my equip for the future, because i know that this game will be eternal for his unique freemind movement system, you can really feel like your hand made a fusion with mouse, you fast think, it aim and shot….. I loved Quest Mode of Gunz 1 because you need to be really pro for make some of them and PRO dont mean GoodWeapon (biggerD**ck mentality of every game) PRO mean you need to block fast and shot faster…. its the only game in 2k years that allow you do things faster that you can think, this is THE game for a lot of players and if can i will buy this game with friends for make it bigger, make it complete, new weapons, new maps, parkour missions, berzerk mode. this is super better that the scripted S4L

short answer:dead game,garbage design,Pay-to-win, stay away.

long answer: Where do i even begin?

This game managed to anger everyone off, the old gunz 1 veterans, the newbies and the whales.

lets start with angering the veterans.

game has some stupid mechanics like nemesis system which is similar to the nemesis from tf2, but instead imagine if the revenge target had “wallhacks” and “100% critical hits” just because you’re his nemesis…

and this isnt only on casual, this is an actual mechanic of the game on every mode including ranked, and team deathmatch which makes no sense.

A game in which you are alone with the zombies and you need to defend against them in order to survive. The game features 6 locations. There is a gun shop. But also, weapons and ammunition can be found in the locations themselves.

The atmosphere of the game is rather creepy, the corresponding music in the background adds horror.

The game requires certain improvements. But some modes are interesting to play. I liked the “defense” mode (Coop)
