Stupid Never Dies PS5 Review

Hello everyone hows it going? Today i wanna talk to you about one of the most interesting games ive played all year called Stupid Never Dies but first a massive thank you to GPTRACK50 inc for sending me a copy to check out its greatly appreciated let’s talk about it.

So Firstly I played this game on PS5 yes I know a console the horror, no but seriously I like playing single player games on my couch old school style and stupid never dies gives me that chance I have a PS5 slim and the game ran great no issues what so ever and it looks beautiful on my TV and honestly the biggest part it played i didnt need no 8K graphics i just wanted to play and enjoy the vibes.

So a bit of the story you play as Davy who just so happens to be a zombie you see when monsters first appeared there was chaos but then they lived together until the great evil KoM appeared and decimated humanity leaving barely 2 percent behind yes those are the numbers the game gives you, so the monsters all leave except they leave the zombies behind cause they dont even consider them monsters at all like damn thanks for the gut punch, so Davy spends his days walking around a mall where his life takes an interesting turn and where are crazy stupid story takes place but thats it for story details you gotta play the game no more spoils from me.

So the game is an Action RPG and no let me stop you it is NOT a souls like let me repeat that it is NOT a souls like ok let me carry on the game plays like an rpg in traditional story sense where you can upgrade and enhance your character but it feels more of a rougelite when your in combat and fighting your way through monster territory its the best way to describe it you see in some combat instances you get upgrade choices like a rougelite that helps you fight monsters and every upgrade is needed you also have a very peculiar fighting style which drives you forward and makes you evolve temporarily which is a bummer I wish the combat styles were a bit more permanent but I get it dont wanna make you over powered right away.

So the underworld is progressed in levels similar to rougelites that let you pick paths as you progress some stages have certain rewards that you may need others might have the same gear you already have its all random to an extent but the levels play on a timer you have a timer that counts down as you progress and sadly if you run out of time you lose everything you have gained before hand ive come close to losing time a few runs I dont know if its my luck or what I havent noticed a way to increase the remaining time and I bet there’s a way but im never lucky with these games I always get the short straw I know lucky me right.

In my time playing ive come across a few interesting characters and its honestly hard to tell who’s evil, who’s good and who’s just trying to survive as your progressing you start wondering is this really worth it but only the ending of the game can tell you if its worth it and im not spoiling anything else.
Stupid Never Dies is fun, has a great story and honestly is probably what a lot of gamers need a pallet cleanser and something to just chill and vibe out with and honestly its a breath of fresh air and the fact you play as a zombie makes it all the more interesting I will say this the game starts slow but it picks up I promise so the game is out now on Steam and Playstation 5 sorry Xbox no word about you guys yet but check it out and enjoy it have a great day and game on.

Yar Forgotten Throne PS5 Review

Hello everyone hows it going? Today i wanna talk to you about Yar Forgotten Throne for the PS5 but first i wanna thank the team at Axyos Games Entertainment for sending me a copy of the game its greatly appreciated.

Now I dont get to play many single player games since many anymore use the souls formula so its hard for me to find a game I can just enjoy but then Yar was brought to my attention when the devs sent me a key so I decided to give it a shot and see whats going on.

In this game you set out a nobody looking to help the world from a great evil that has returned, so yeah pretty generic story loop good vs evil so when you start out you wash up on the shore near a small cabin this is where the game starts your tutorial now i am all for tutorials teaching players how to play and what buttons do what but I also hate when your forced to finish the tutorial and cant progress until its done but onwards.

After the tutorial I went exploring found some combat in the form of goblins and boars the combat was nothing spectacular honestly the camera movement felt sluggish as well then when you found people the damn cursor you get was horrendous it felt like I was back at my computer using a janky mouse couldn’t line up things right off the bat kept struggling why though when they coulda just made it snap and scroll like other games on consoles do this was a big turn off considering its used in every part of your inventory making the smallest of actions more time consuming.

Then came more combat against insects where you simply cant just fight them no you have to find xy and z to be able to fight im sorry I dont wanna have to find 6 other things just to kill one bug.

Honestly I did not enjoy this game at all and I cant recommend it the game feels like it needed more work and polish cause if I wanted this much stress I would just go play skyrim instead thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Fantasy Online 2

Hey everyone hows it going? Today i wanna talk to you about a pixel art mmorpg that ive been playing lately so lets talk about it.

So this game was brought to my attention by the creator himself Jeromy Stroh he messaged me a few months back but it ended up being a game i skipped at first since I wasnt working i didnt have a way to buy it then recently he messaged me again so I decided to talk with him the game has different versions and on andriod its free with some micro transactions so its how I started the game out.

Now im not much of a mobile gamer the only game on my phone is pokemon go but I went into this game with no expectations so I was pleasantly surprised when I started to enjoy the game controls on mobile aren’t great but aren’t a disaster either there easy to learn with some work.

The first i guess you can say quirk of the game that annoyed me off the bat was the dialog the game mixes present world dialog with a medieval fantasy setting at least thats how it comes across to me but after sometime even some of the conversations were making me smile and I wanted to play the game more in comes my best friend Savior who buys me the game on steam during the last sale they had which at 5 bucks I didnt mind him buying it for me so on pc I had to restart over cause I didnt know how to transfer my character and I didnt wanna bother the devs with questions when its supposed to be a blind review so now im on pc with this game and let me tell you man am i still having fun.

On mobile I only ever encountered 1 person on my adventures and they completely ignored me but on pc ive come across so many players and they actually talk to you and some will even buff you so you dont struggle or have to many issues on top of that the world is just fun so many missions and its just everyday people dealing with some insane creatures from killer beets to zombie crabs the diversity so far is insane and im not even anywhere near a major city right now my time is being spent completing every mission I find so I can level up and get stronger I just recently hit level 20 which gives me access to the market sales so I can start earning money with all the insane shit im finding.

On pc im having way more fun but I do wish I could have a bigger hot bar the game does offer an arrow to scroll between hotbars but I want all my skills on one bar the way wow streamers have it set up, I also joined a guild the person who recruited me was super friendly and honestly you dont see that anymore in games and for me being a game reviewer its hard to just have a game I can enjoy and even though this one is being reviewed ill keep playing it so I can progress.

The game also has a bunch of things you can interact with the map lets you scroll around in real time and see whats going on and there’s so many items you can find as you slay newer monsters I know im probably lacking since I keep all my stats close together.

The game does have cosmetics and battle passes you can buy with real money but so far I havent seen anything that would push a pay to win formula but if I do find one ill update this review when I do.

Between the exploration and combat even with some missions becoming very tedious and feeling like a chore for example I do a mission kill 20 of these guys only to have the next mission be kill 80 of the same guys that becomes a chore and honestly i didnt enjoy those missions at all and im finding more of them I hope the rest of the game isnt the same cause stuff like that gets old quick.

There seems to be a lot of fun gear that helps make you stronger but some of it is locked behind an ascension system which from what my guild mates told me is hitting level 100 and resetting yourself which seems like a waste all that hard work gone just so you have to start over other then the cool gear wheres the actual reward seems a bit like a punishment but I wont fully know till I reach that destination myself.

The game also has pets but I havent been able to find any myself or at least I dont know how so that is my new mission I want a companion to play with.

The new city I found seems to have a good amount of stuff to do and some special gear you can craft I wonder if each city is like this you know new gear to try and craft, there’s also a faction system ive come across 4 factions so far i dont know if thats it but they offer some benefits and sadly only 1 of them was cool and caught my attention.

All in all Fantasy Online 2 has been a fun journey so far and with active development adding new areas and events makes you wonder is the creator getting any sleep now the game is 10 dollars on steam free on andriod apart from the micro transactions on mobile for some stuff nothing game breaking i would like to see this game grow to a point the devs are happy so if you want a nice little time kill mmorpg check this game out thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Kernel Hearts PS5 Review

Hello everyone today i would like to talk to you about Kernel Hearts, but first a huge thank you to Whitethorn Games for sending me a copy to check out its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

What is Kernel Hearts its an action rougelite with super powered andriod magical girls now if you’ve followed me for a while you know I love rougelites so I went into this game expecting a challenge but holy shit did this game defeat me and just crush me into the ground.

So the world is ending a mysterious tower sits outside the last vestige of humanity and its your job to get in there and find your way to the top to claim victory but sadly this game has proven to much for me I sadly couldn’t even beat the first level, this game adds a danger meter similar to risk of rain but everything is just hard from the start there’s stones that give you health and orbs that act as currency to help you upgrade skills along the way then after you think your ready you find a mysterious figure that telephones you to the boss room where the boss is on a small platform surrounded by smaller versions of himself that do everything they can to kick your ass.

I have done over 10 runs and I cant for the life of me beat level 1 which is supposed to be the easiest of them all I can only imagine how hard the rest of the levels are.

The game offers co op but sadly its not in the traditional sense where you can join a random lobby and progress you have to make your own lobby and hope your friends have the game so you can invite them which sadly I dont have any that play this game.

Whitethorn games definitely have a great game on hand and I wouldnt change anything except maybe make multiplayer searchable instead of needing to give out codes to join that aside Kernel hearts has become the first game to really kick my ass I look forward to see what they add to it thank ypu for stopping by take care and game on

1666 Amsterdam

Hello everyone hows it going today i wanna talk to you about 1666 Amsterdam I know what a name but first a massive thank you to Panache Digital Games for sending me a key to explore and sink some time into 1666 so lets talk about it shall we.

I admit i wasnt sure what to expect from this game going in but I must say the devs have crafted a cinematic masterpiece cause in some ways it feels almost like a movie then an actual game everything from visuals to small details just leaves you stunned.

The game follows Noa a collector of magic and follows her journey through 1666 as she journeys to complete her job in order to save the world joined by her cat companion who has there own mystery for you to find out this game does amazing bringing to life the pass of what coulda been depending on your beliefs of course.

I did have some small issues with the game the combat was a bit of a hassle even when I dodged i got hit and you only spam the right trigger nothing else no combat spells that directly affect the target which was a bit of a let down another issue i had was controlling the cat i would sometimes get stuck on areas im allowed to jump to i feel the cat controls could use more polish it felt a bit all over the place.

This game is in early access and the devs themselves have stated early access will be used with help from the community to give better life to the game and i feel thats smart as a dev I feel you miss stuff but players might actually find things that need work and thats what gamers should remember everything good takes time.

Again thanks to the devs for sending me a key its greatly appreciated check out 1666 Amsterdam if you want an amazing story and beautiful visuals thank you all take care and game on

Forsaken Realms Vahrins Call

What do you get when skyrim gets a budget and the souls games aren’t dark and gloomy? In my opinion you get Vahrins Call so lets talk about this action rpg that ive been checking out but fiest a massive thank you to Titan Roc for sensing me a copy to check out its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

So Vahrins Call is a Fantasy Action RPG with great emphasis on the fantasy and decent on the action you start the game in character creation make your character and then you get dropped into the tutorial area when its an actual area not a small chunk but a decent area that has signs posted that you click into and give you more information about every button press and action and that for me is a great tutorial definitely wanna see more like this.

After the tutorial you enter the real game and start your journey the reason i compare to skyrim is cause its one of the few rpg I played where I explored a good chunk and always found something new to do and in vahrins call its the same idea there’s so much to explore and find that honestly you can get lost and spend hours the map also has an item marker on the right that tells you what items are in the area and how much as well so if your a perfectionist and wanna make sure you grabbed everything there you go the game keeps track for you.

Theres also a boat load of side missions and I do mean a boat load im sitting on over 12 missions and im mainly just exploring getting a feel for the game.

The story well im sorry I dont spoil stories I like people to discover it on there own but its easy to follow as your the hero and are trying to save the realm.

One of the funniest things ive come across is during combat the human enemies will talk while they fight and my favorite line when you hit them is “your not supposed to fight back” like excuse me the fuck im not ima burn you and slash you till you drop loot like the level 1 peasant you are lmao.

Combat is simple you gain experience with the weapons and items you use as well as the magic and traps everything gives you xp where you can invest skill points into and get buffs and upgrades.

Vahrins call is fun and theres so much to do and it has a decent size map with plenty to find and do and I for one definitely recommend it if your an rpg fan as well now i did mention souls games a bit as when you die or rest in the save points enemies respawn they dont stay dead so always be ready as if your playing with sound the music changes when your being attacked.

Again I wanna thank Titan Roc for sending me a copy its been a blast and thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

DragonSword Awakening

Hello everyone today i wanna talk to you about a gem of an rpg ive been playing called DragonSword Awakening but first I wanna send a huge thank you to the team at HOUND13 for sending me the game its greatly appreciated.

Now there are rumors around that this was supposed to be a gacha game but everything was taken out is that true I dont know everything ive played and done so far has been acquired from the game itself the only things I see that cost money are some costumes and the deluxe edition upgrade other then that everything is in game well on to the show then.

So ive been playing deagonsword at a decent pace nothing huge im sitting at 10.3 hours as of this writing but expect that number to grow as I definitely have not scratched the surface of the game.

The game follows Lute after he crashes his ship onto the continent of Orbis in search of meeting with his family but fate has other plans for him as he meets castella and Johnny members of the Johnny mercenaries who are on a crazy quest to complete and trick lute into helping which is where the game starts letting you take over and a simple tutorial progresses you through the area. The game quickly enters you into combat and the combo system which makes combat unique in this game as each character offers there own status effects and combat style.

Soon after your back in town being dragged into a temporary trial with the Johnny group and this is where the story starts to unfold and so far its an amazing story one that has a good amount of plot twist.

The world of Orbis is big the map is huge and you slowly discover it as you go by finding these ancient windmills that clear up the fog in the pertaining area, there are also statues of the goddess that you must rebuild and each statue not only heals you but doubles as a warp point to make travel quicker and trust me travel you will but the game doesnt make you suffer as the game gives you this awesome beetle mount that helps get you around and the best part you use them to climb so you can get to higher areas.

The game also has cooking which is how you make healing items and theres also a blacksmith which helps craft gear so far though I havent seen any new weapons so im not sure if there is any.

Onto the game itself the game is very colorful the graphics feel a bit like genshin lots of colors and beauty the game plays amazing I havent encountered any stutters or frame drops exploring is fun and the cities are filled with life as you explore them you can actually talk to people as some even have quest you can do to earn more xp and materials.

The variety in monsters has been fun from different goblin types to what look like humanoid hyenas and even golems hiding in rock formations as well as bosses and some insane fights that are part of the story.

Ive had an amazing time with the game so far and I definitely recommend it if your a fan of rpg games and dont mind some exploring and questing as you go

Again I wanna thank Hound13 for sending me the game its been a blast and its greatly appreciated thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

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.
