This is a good read. The sex scenes are a bonus for sure but the game itself is good. The characters are well written and you can learn more about them if you manage to get further in the story based on the correct choices. The art is quite good too, its a rather unique style but it goes well with the story. The one thing I'd liked different is some more scenes addressing Glasha, while she is presented as simple her ending dialogues show that she had a lot of potential for more developed dialogues or turning points in the story.

I love that his metal album comes with a free game!

Jokes aside, the games is really good. the songs were tailored for each singer so all of the are bangers!

Get it and go headbang while killing demons with dual revolvers.

A kind of short visual novel set in a world where vampires rule form behind the scenes.

Story is rich and transtitions really quick from one point to the next. There is a vast terminolgy used thorugh the story since its a first person narration, luckily for us, there is a note section that allows for the explanation of said terms in relation to how it is interpreted by the protagonist.

The art and soundtrack may be simple but they dont fail to create the setting as it unfolds the story. I would also like to point out that the character do stand out visually.

I, however, would have liked more insight in certain characters and events that happen in the story, because why bother give them names and make them look important if only to skim over them in favor of a plot that moves fast on its on schedule.

Still worth its price, it is a good read if you have a few bucks to spare.

We won against SONY's stupid PSN account link. Now we wait for steam to allow the helldivers of countries where PSN is not available to get the game back since steam blocked purchases of the game in those countries.

The game is very good. Solid community of players with almost no toxicity. Easy to match with randoms on their hosted missions and help you deliver democracy. Several stratagems to use for maximum democracy liberation. Not brutally monetized, you can earn premium currency playing the game as long as you explore the maps for the points of interest where it can spawn.

The bad thing and one that bothers me is the bad balancing of weapons. Some weapons feel very mediocre because of magazine size and weapon power in comparison to other weapons that have better ammo economy and power balances. There are also a couple of bugs from day one that have not been patched yet, looking at you antimaterial rifle scope.

Besides all of that I give this game a DUMB PSN ACCOUNT LINK/10, lots of fun and democracy to spread.

This game is a solid 7/10. Bought in the NTR Catalogue Pack.

The story is pretty basic with a MC wanting to take revenge on two Elfs for acting high and mighty and looking down on him. The story is quite short with almost 3 hours in duration if you are not a slow reader so you can definetly finish the game in a session. There are no choices and there is only one route so you really just read through it and enjoy the scenes as they come along.

The art is good and the game does not need a patch, the censorship the game have is in mosaics so you really don't see much but the art is still good. The game does have a good ammount of CGs tho.

I would say the game is good for its price, there are games that are more expensive and provide less quality and CGs than this game. Though I would still wait for a sale or bundle sale like I did.

Grimdawn is one of the best ARPGs I've played.

Besides having a good enough story to delve into, your choices do matter. You can influence quests outcomes based on dialogue choices! This impacts the world too like, for example, making a faction hostile or allowing a new Hero enemy to be available.

Now the focus of the game is class building. The game has 12 classes (with DLC) to mix and match skills and playstyles. This allows for lots of theorycrafting since you can also respec skills cheaply (with gold basically). Builds are further enhanced by Devotions, which are passive stats and skills of their own type that can also respec'ed if you feel like you amde a mistake. Devotions can cover weaknesses or enhance aspects of your builds like making you tankier, faster, give lifesteal to skills or just add more stats and offensive bonuses.

In terms of loot, there is a lot, like tons of loot. Gear is also craftable and modifiable with several types of components and augments. So you can farm a legendary piece of gear, give it a component skill and then augment it for more stats and stuff.

I serously recommend the game if you are a fan of Diablo 2 and Path of Exile, the game is a mix of the 2 to be honest. Also the devs periodically update the game and new DLC is announced with a new class, new maps and tons of new items. If you are in doubt grab it at a discount, but the game is well worth full price.

Monster Hunter World ha sido mi primera experiencia con la franquicia y debo decir que estoy satisfecho.

El juego te presenta ambientes hermosos y con fauna que se siente viva. Si te vas de expedición a un mapa y te quedas en el mismo lugar podrás ver a los monstruos grandes deambular, rasguñar paredes, pelear con otros monstruos grandes, cazar, comer, etc. La IA de los monstruos y fauna pequeña se siente en verdad viva a comparación de otros juegos con criaturas de comportamiento similar. En cuanto a los escenarios, son hermosos y representan en verdad lo que son: el bosque primigenio es un laberinto de troncos y raíces, el yermo de agujas tiene ondas que representan el calor que hace, etc.

En cuanto al gameplay, es un monster hunter: entras, cazas, vuelves. Lo complicado va en armarte sets de armadura y armas junto con joyas que tengan habilidades que tengan sinergia y produzcan una build funcional para ti. Si bien el juego tiene bastantes discusiones con la temática de "el equipamiento meta" o "la mejor build para X arma", la gracia del juego es jugar para sacar los sets de armadura que tengan las skills que TÚ crees que te sirven y que TÚ sientes potencian tu gameplay y tu arma. Y esto además se puede ver en los tipos que hacen runs de monstruos sin usar armaduras o en terminar el juego usando una sola arma, etc etc.

La dificultad del juego es progresiva, los primeros monstruos son simples, aunque puede que encuentres una que otra barrera en uno que otro monstruo, y los monstruos que enfrentas casi al final del juego tienen su propia mecánica que los vuelve complejos. Además, el juego tiene lo que se llaman "monstruos curtidos", que en esencia son monstruos que meten más daño, pero que otorgan recompensas especiales para aumentar el equipo y desbloquear joyas raras.

En cuanto a jugabilidad, la historia es decente, simple pero efectiva y con un montón de momentos donde dices "el gremio no me paga para esto". La rejugabilidad viene de la mano de las investigaciones y el DLC que añade una nueva zona y los asedios. Las investigaciones son misiones que tu decides tomar y tienen condiciones especiales para completarse y otorgan recompensas en base a dichas condiciones, las expediciones no las tocaras mucho a no ser que estés buscando algo en particular.

En cuanto al multijugador, es bastante activo, casi siempre encontraras una sesión con jugadores haciendo misiones, si lanzas bengalas de auxilio es muy probable que encuentres ayuda. El problema viene en los asedios. Los asedios son cacerías para monstruos en particular que requieren una investigación profunda para poder "avanzar" el asedio. Luego de mucho intentar farmear algunos de los asedios me terminé cansando de no encontrar gente para hacerlos menos tediosos. Si no tienes un grupo de 2 o 3 amigos más para que te ayuden a farmear un asedio, mejor no los hagas.

En resumen, está bonito el juego, tiene una jugabilidad repetitiva pero no se siente lenta. La dificultad y los monstruos lo hacen entretenido. Compra el juego y el DLC en oferta si te interesa, OJO QUE NO TIENE PAUSA.

Ah Elden Ring, the time for thy review has cometh.

Elden Ring is an open world souls game where the main attraction is the map. The world of elden ring is vast, from the weeping peninsula to the mountaintop of the giants. Exploring is one of the key aspects of the game and it's also, what makes the game more accesible for newer players. You can't technically get stuck since you can move to a different area to progress your build, get more items, or just to do more content.

Combat wise and difficulty wise is like any souls game. Even the enemies that you consider weak can cause you troubles if not dealth with. However, the game is probably one of the most friendly for newer souls players. This is due to checkpoints (Marika's statues) that allow you to re enter bossfights fast instead of traversing entire levels, summons in order to help clean areas and boss rooms AND the ability to invoke players for help. Also, the game has tutorials that explain how crafting, stats, and upgrading gear works, which is extremely helpful if you have never played a souls game before.

Regarding music, it goes hard. Every ost is great, there are a few that are more background music style vs others that are Boss music that makes the fight even better. Art department is not lagging behind, The art in this game is majestic, from the architecture to cinematics, everything works towards pumping up the atmosphere of where you are and what you are seeing.

Regarding builds, YOU CAN PLAY THE GAME AS HOWEVER YOU LIKE AND IT WILL BE VIABLE. Magic? no problems at any range and with good damage. Melee? go fast hitting or hard hitting and add some fast spells or incantatios to the mix to pump survivality or add more damage. Cosplay or thematic builds? You can literally play as the grim ripper with a scythe and black flame spells. You want it, you can do it.

Storywise, as other souls, the story is not directly handed to you. Most of the lore comes from item description and dialogues with NPCs. The wiki may help you conect some dots if you don't want to go to youtube and watch a videos, but discovering the lore on yourself is part of the souls experience. So don't feel discouraged if nothing makes sense at first, eventually you will "see" the lore.

If you have played other souls you should deninetly check this one. One of the best games of 2022 and a solid GOTY. Don't feel discouraged if you aren't good, practice makes perfect and even the most unorthodox build will beat the game eventually.

PS: As a souls fan this game is pretty damn good, I would't say is the best (everyone has their own favorite, in my case, Bloodborne is the best).

This game is great, the only problem is how its ported to PC.

I've been playing this game for a while on mobile. The story and gameplay feel great, huge plus is you can play without connection. HOWEVER, the port is poorly set up.

You download the FULL GAME on steam, then the game requires you to update anyways and REDOWNLOAD THE WHOLE GAME anyways, you can check the space used from 10 GBs to 18-20GBs after the "update". In addition, whenever the game launches an update you have to REDOWNLOAD the whole game again. And if you loose conection you have to also REDOWNLOAD the whole game again. In addition, the game has bugs that have been reported since early access.

I can't say that the game is bad, it would be a lie considering how much I've played on mobile. However the way the port is set up and how long this issue has been unaddressed by the devs is very annoying. If you want to try this game I strongly recomend to play on mobile. And if you really want to play on PC I suggest downloading either bluestacks or Nox android emulator play it.

Life is strange is one fo those games that you have to play.

The story is well written, the art is good, the music is amazing, the decision makin is brutal. But the plot is just magnificent. You are faced with so many heavy and emotional topics that you may break in tears more than once. And that its okay. Seeing the conclussion of such a marvelous story at the end of chapter 5 is just breath taking. Either finale is emotionally charged and moving forward to that point just makes the game even more beautiful.

If you have not played this game, please, give it a chance. This is one of those games that you wish you could forget just to play it again and see it develop again. Definetly one of my favorite games I've ever played.
