Taival Demo

Hello everyone hows it going today we talk about Taival but first I wanna thank the teams of Bonobo Software, Poysky Productions and Level Up Gaming for giving me access to the press demo its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

So where do I start first this is my first time playing a minecraft style game and surprisingly it wasnt bad the blocky style took some getting used to but I managed to get through it even tho it was hurting my eyes a bit.

The game starts with your ship crashing into a dock on some village thats under attack the o ly person around doesn’t even ask if your ok they just ask for your help in saving the mayor from the attack and immediately your thrown into the story you get no choices nothing just boom your walking good grab that sword and go fight.

So you make your way around the village fighting until eventually you fight the boss kick his ass and save the mayor where you then free this caged animal that happens to be a legendary creature that hasn’t been seen in ages and your suddenly sent on this wild adventure.

Theres nothing to do in the demo so far just fight random enemies if they attack you and find a way to your destination no side quest or anything to distract you from your journey which im sure plenty of people will enjoy that but if im playing an rpg style game I wanna explore yes there was random icons on the compass bar which you can venture to but other then adding the location to the map they didnt feel rewarding at all.

I didnt have any issues running the game its not bad but I did have some graphical stutters which happened near the cave that you needed to reach I hope the devs take time to look it over also the loading between sections felt like everything breaks before finally loading into place and I didnt enjoy that it messes with your eyes a bit.

All in all the preview was fine it wasnt nothing huge theres potential and I look forward to seeing what comes with the full release again thanks to the devs for sending me access to the game its greatly appreciated have a great day and game on.

Outriders Worldslayer DLC

I dont play many games often that pull me in and wont let go but outriders was one of them I loved the game and its story so much I had to finish it and bought the dlc to continue this amazing story.

In worldslayer the world is falling apart ice storms are destroying everything and it seems hopeless but zahidi had been talking to another dr that sadly was an insurgent who had discovered a way to stop the storms after saving zahidi from almost being killed you set put on a journey to the most forbidden area in the game the black Gulch why is it so forbidden eh who knows its just a bunch of crazy people killing for fun left and right and a commander who has some insane powers who’s also a bit crazy with a god complex.

As you progress the story you find more of the Pax frozen I was sad considering all the pax we came across were dead or transformed into ferals finally you find what the Dr had discovered a forcefield in the middle of nowhere holding off the anomaly storm where once your inside you discover the last living surviving pax a shamen who had been in talks with the Dr who also knows a way who shows our commander the truth.

Then there’s the trials a sorta mini raid where you go from room to room fighting and discovering what happened to father along the way and what drove his madness with some great boss fights lots of loot and plenty of enemies to kill the trials were honestly amazing and I enjoyed my time in them.

But after seeing the ending and how the dlc finishes I can whole heartedly say fuck you square Enix I hope you guys go under you spent years and money on saving final fantasy 14 and yet you couldn’t give this game the proper time it needed everyone knows looter shooters take time to grow look at borderlands and destiny you had a beautiful fucking gem on hand and pissed it away we were supposed to get a sequel and thats never gonna happen cause of the greedy fucking assholes over at square I hope one day people can fly will buy the rights to the ip and finish what they started real fans need the second game or even another dlc.

Sorry about that let my mood get the best of me all in all worldslayer was an amazing continuation to the story and had some great times in it thank you all for stopping by 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

Cursed Blood

Hey everyone hows it going today we are gonna talk about Cursed Blood a brutal gore filled action rougelike but first huge thank you to David Marquardt Studios for sending me a code to check out this beauty so let’s dive in.

Cursed Blood is about a shrine that used to balance the world by way of blood sacrifices but the old people died out and the shrine lay waiting for its next sacrifice now the corruption of the world along with its greed has thrown the balance out of whack and this is where we the player come in as we must fight and restore the balance by the way of Blood and trust me Blood it will be.

So you get to play as 1 of 4 vengeful Samurai Apes fueled by the rage of the shrine best part you dont have to go alone you see Cursed Blood is also a co op game for up to 4 players so grab your group of friends and let the chaos flow.

Now the game is a top down view like other rougelikes but plays a bit more similar in action to something like path of exile giving off the rpg vibes so you do have the rougelike aspects you find shrine buffs and you get to pick one theres also curses in this game that hinder you at certain shrines so every choice counts.

My favorite part of the game is the gore the Blood covering your screen during combat as well as the slicing enemies in half or into pieces you can also sneak up on them and do take downs since the game does have stealth.

This game has huge potential and I for one cant wait for its release in April so keep an eye out for this gem cause if you like action hack and slash some awesome gore and wanna play a kick ass ape samurai this is the game for you thanks for stopping by take care and game on
