Granblue Fantasy Relink Endless Ragnarok PS5 Review

Hey everyone hows it going? Today i wanna talk to you about GranBlue Fantasy Relinks base game story but first a huge thank you to Cygames inc for sending me the game its greatly appreciated and an honor to work with these guys for the first time.

GranBlue is an rpg with an amazing story it follows Gran and the crew as they journey across the skydom on an adventure to find the mythical floating island of estalucia This game has so much to talk about so I will do my best to cover most of it.

At first i went into this game thinking it might be a gotcha game having no history with this game i miss judged it and I am glad this game proved me wrong. First let’s talk about the graphics I havent had a game blow me away in graphics since final fantasy X on ps2 the game was just that beautiful between cinematics and cutscenes as well as general environments the game really left me amazed and I did not wanna stop playing i needed to know more of the story and what was going on.

Now i suck at rpg games when they involve stats and weapon stats i always mess them up but some how this game even though it had all that it was fairly easy to understand and to position everything the way i wanted the whole time I played i got massive final fantasy 10 vibes and honestly I loved it and wanted to see what else might have been in the vibe factor. Each character has its own stat tree which is great because it makes sure you pay attention to each character instead of just the one you control and trust me you will wanna invest as some of the fights I had I was way under leveled for.

There are multiple characters you get to use across your journey and even though there’s some in the store you can purchase at 3 dollars this is completely optional as the game has character cards you will find during your play through and you use these to unlock characters even the newest ones added from the dlc.

Theres also a new summon mechanic and transcendence and master levels that come from the dlc which i will talk more when i get to enjoy the dlc as well. Which your probably wondering if its worth the money and honestly yes it is considering how much new stuff is added and the size of the dlc itself absolutely buy it.

The combat system is easy to learn and hard to master between normal attacks and skills as well as link attacks theres a lot happening on screen and I found it easier to use the targeting system so I could keep my main target in focus. Each character has an ultimate attack gage that fills up as your battles progress letting you deal out huge damage if done right.

The places you visit are all beautiful from snow mountains to big city’s and everything in between theres something for you to do in each location and there’s a lot of items to find on each map everytime we went to a new location I would open up my map and run around a la path of exile lol.

Now the story was honestly intense I had moments i didnt wanna stop playing but had to cause you know adulting but man the bond between the party and lyria is insane everyone is one big family and the trials we faced left me with my jaw on the floor the final chapters of the story where everything got even more intense as enemies turned to allies and beyond truly top tier story telling the writers really knocked it out of the park.

Im sorry for so much vagueness but I dont like to spoil story points in my reviews and this game is one huge story so this is a bit hard when I write about the dlc ill do my best to touch more on the story just know that gran was not taking any crap from anyone he was getting lyria back no matter what.

I had a blast with this game sitting at around 16 hours for the base story i have so much more to discover and enjoy and i for one plan on it again thank you to Cygames for sending me a copy i greatly appreciate it everyone thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

Sand Raiders of Sophie

Hello everyone today i wanna talk to you about a game that has been on my radar since I saw my friend in the playtest and that game is called Sand Raiders of Sophie I also wanna give a huge thank you to tinybuild for sending me a copy of the game its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

First my biggest massive gripe with the game is absolutely no fucking tutorial nothing at all nothing to tell you how to play how to set up or even how to build your walker nothing they just throw you in the deep end and expect you to swim and that would be fine except not everyone got invited to the playtest so maybe a tutorial ok not everyone was in the playtest and the players that were already have a huge advantage seriously.

Now that thats out of the way onto the game sand is a multiplayer battleroyal extraction shooter game I know thats a mouthful and honestly its not bad it does things in a way that even though its an extraction shooter its not annoying.
Now your able to squad up in groups of 6 max or any variation from 2 to 6 theres solo play as well for my solo hunters but good luck, now at the start of your game you choose your character choose what gear you wanna risk losing pick a walker and off you go it sounds simple but its not you need to pick guns ammo and armor for yourself but you also need to pick guns ammo and repair kits for your walker so if your trying to rush and get back in the game quick you might miss some stuff.

The map is huge a nice barren desert with areas to explore and npcs to battle for loot but your not alone as theres other players that can ruin your game if your not paying attention which is crucial for survival.

Ive had about 6 matches in total ive spent more time in there discord trying to find a group then playing the game as I dont have many friends who have the game.

The game has had its fair share of problems since launch but the devs are working hard daily to combat all the issues that are popping up and for that I give them major props.

Sand is a fun game with massive potential and i can see it being huge with the right people but it needs work and it needs a way to be more welcoming to new players or they wont survive yes theres youtube but you shouldn’t need to rely on other people to do a games job.

I cant wait to see whats in store for sand as time progresses I look forward to the journey thank you all for stopping by take care and game on

HellSlave 2 Judgement of the Archon

Hey everyone hows it going today i wanna talk to you about HellSlave 2 but first a huge thank you to the devs at Dear Villagers for sending me a copy of the demo to check out its greatly appreciated so let’s talk about it.

So honestly this game even with the intro ive had a hard time following what’s going on in the demo but ill do my best to explain what ive been able to understand.

So the world has pretty much gone to shit and there’s a war going on the demo opens up in what I assume is the starting area which is a decent size your trying to meet with a friend why idk it doesn’t really say much.

The combat is turned based and its simple enough hit the keys on your keyboard that correspond to the attack and wait your next turn, the loot that enemies drop even at begginer level you get some decent gear and drops I had a poison set up that was beautiful until I got into a harder area then I had to change everything again to try and progress.

There are side quest you can do i did one where I had to kill a boss skeleton so a merchant could move along and even though he was higher level then me I managed to kill him.

Theres a huge skill grid where you can get your attacks from and its something you can lose hours studying each skill there’s also a passive tree with buffs thats almost the same so much info so little time.

I did have some trouble in the one area a mini boss monster almost 1k life points kept kicking my ass until I bought better gear sadly this game even if you find amazing gear early on it will eventually become obsolete which sucks i had a great set up.

Its a great rpg from the time ive played but I had a hard time following the story im sure others out there will have a better time so keep an eye out for HellSlave 2 its worth playing for the combat and loot.

Thank you all for coming have a great day and game on.

Bellwright PS5 Version

Hey everyone hows it going i was recently sent out the PS5 version of Bellwright to check out so lets talk about it but first huge thank you to Snail Games for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated.

Yes ive checked out bellwright before I was sent the PC version when there maiden voyage dlc dropped and I had fun with it for the most part so when the game dropped for PS5 i wanted to check it out sadly it didnt have the multiplayer active which is what I wanted to do which was play with my buddy and see how the game felt but enough of that this review will mainly focus on how it felt for console if you wanna read my bellwright review ill link the pc coverage below.

Now ive never played survivor games on consoles ive always felt for some games pc is just better but I wanted to see how well they adapted to using a controller and the console limits my biggest issue graphically is the motion blur when turning or running the game blurs together to the point its very annoying and hurts your eyes a lot and sadly there’s no way to turn off the motion blur in the settings for the console port big fail now it could just be the games to demanding but still I hope they fix it in the future.

Next the controls itself left stick is to move and instead of making sprint L3 they bind it to circle why every controller player and anyone that uses a controller knows L3 is sprint in most games

The building and a few menu options were stuffed under either L1 or square i think it was sorry so many controls over lap its hard to remember them all.

I biggest gripe is they didnt even use the touch pad for a mouse cursor they used it for the pause button when its clicked.

I feel this game needed a lot more time on controller mapping some of it feels ok and other aspects just dont work and the game itself nothing has changed you still start in the ruins you find the first village and work on gaining people’s trust I honestly feel the console port could have had more work done to it to help it feel more natural the combat is the biggest disaster you need to use the right stick to look around and try to get your swing into different spots its a massive headache honestly.

All in all the game still needs work and I hope future updates will improve it cause I do wanna see the game be a hit even if my review doesn’t sound like it below ive linked my original pc review again thank you to Snail Games for the game take care and game on

Outriders

Not many games grab my attention anymore let alone keep it but for a while now I had been wanting to play outriders it gave me destiny vibes with the powers and space background so when I bought a new ps5 I made it my goal to get outriders and I did and damn what a fucking game.

Now for those who dont know outriders was made by the team at people can fly and published by square Enix releasing back in 2021 I didnt get to play during its prime and I wish I had.

The story follows you the player who’s an outrider having just landed on Enoch a new planet after we left our home of earth since it was dying and crumbling. Enoch when you land is beautiful its amazing the flora and animals its everything you would dream of it reminded me of the world in James Cameron’s Avatar just beautiful, but then the storm shows up and everything goes to hell you escape only to get thrown into cryo and then you wake up.
Now this is where shit gets real what feels like minutes to you maybe hours is actually 30 years and everything is hell the beautiful world you saw is no more now its just a waste land and everyone trying to survive at least what’s left of it.

Now the game starts you off meeting some people you knew saving others and throwing you right into the chaos and I for one was up for it im not a fan of slow starts in action games and as someone who had tons of hours in Destiny and played a good amount of borderlands I had some expectations for this game when it came to the loot and it didnt disappoint at all the gear and guns had mods that helped you out and made you stronger but wait im getting ahead of myself you see just after you wake up you pick your class which is where all your powers are born from and how the game really becomes fun I picked pyromancer a mid range fighter that also self heals which for my play style is perfect since I like to pretend im a tank and jump in the middle of hell.

Theres a few classes to choose from a tank a support and the midrange i might have to go back and try another class but I have a lot of cleaning up to do in my game. Now the game is multiplayer so you can play with others or go at it alone and the best part there’s tiers so you start at tier 0 if thats to easy it moves up in total there’s 15 tiers of difficulty but each rewards you even more if you play the higher tiers.

The story was amazing everytime I played I wanted to know more it got to the point where I stopped doing side quest and exploring because I needed to know what the hell was going on and by god the discoveries the plot twist everything was just insane by the time I reached the ending of the game my jaw was on the floor needing more, yes there is a dlc which I hope to be able to get sometime soon so I can continue with whatever story they added there. I never expected the story to be so amazing you can tell the dev team really had high hopes for this game and I curse square Enix for pulling the damn plug.

This game goes on sale often I ask all of you give it a chance play it its on pc Xbox and ps5 the game is amazing the story leaves you wanting more the ending top tier I highly recommend this game and to the devs I hope you can someday give us the second game that so many of us really want thank you all for stopping by take care and game on

Bioframe Outpost

So I wanna thank the team at Omni Systems for sending me this game its greatly appreciated let’s talk about it.

So I wasnt sure what to expect when I went into Bioframe Outpost im not much of a metroidvania type of player my history with the genre is limited.

So the game starts with you waking up in a chamber in a facility that looks like its gone to hell and honestly it has which you find out as you progress, some insane alien entity is spreading a virus thats infecting everything it comes into contact and that friends is no good.

I wish the game had combat i would feel alot better but considering you play a scientist who’s lost his memories and must piece everything together theres no combat instead you have a camera and you must take pictures of everything in order to gather information but ypu see the camera also gives you a partial stun effect letting you get by mobs so you can progress sadly the camera takes a bit and you have to keep the object in focus or it restarts everytime

For those who have played games like hollowknight you will feel at home with the map and traversing again though no combat

Theres so much to discover in this game literally everything you photograph is another page of information for you to learn.

The game itself is beautiful the colors used make you feel like your in an abstract painting and the colors from the mobs you encounter from butterfly’s to spiders to plants and robots everything looks amazing.

I wont spoil the game more but its one I recommend you check out having to observe and take pictures over combat is a new take and an interesting one thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.
