France, 1348, a dark plague hovers over this earth

This story is about Amicia and Hugo, two brothers who doesn't know each other that well due the circumstances but slowly they will build a relation of mutual protection and affection from beginning to end while the inquisition goes after them but not only that but also they will need to survive in a nation affected by the war and the dark plague.

The story is really interesting and intriguing, it kept me with a lot of attention to the details, Characters also made this really easy as they are really enjoyable, from the thief brothers to Lucas and Rodric, let's not forget about Nicholas and the rest of the church people, really powerful characters designed to be scary, and they sure are.

Now the story is good but the places we visit? those are another level of detail, you can be easily walking through one of the most beautiful forests you have seen and the next thing you see is the most crude and grotesque scene of blood, violence and death. Is crazy how well implemented is everything and how coherent it is, it's a dark age where bad things happen, if you like abandoned places, obscure villages and pure nature from time to time, you will be pleased by what this game is going to offer you.

What about sound? well, I played the game in French because I wanted to get a bit more of immersion with the language, really good dub and music is really good too.

Gameplay is probably the most divisive thing this game will have (probably) as it asks you to be sneaky and avoid conflict as much as you can for the most part of the game, to put an example, it's like being sneaky in The Last of Us, if you liked that system this is the same, and if you like avoiding conflict then this is a great experience although the game will have moments of violence where avoiding conflict is not an option.

In general I absolutely loved this experience and is so far my favorite game of 2019, I enjoyed it so much and so I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did, please, consider buying and enjoy this wonderful and terrifying journey alongside Amicia, Hugo and friends.

The wasteland is back and now it seems they have a new ranger.

Rage 2 for me it has been a mixed bad of impressions since the announcement day but let's start with the positive, Rage 2 has a gameplay system that it's superb, cool guns combined with an amazing movement system that gives you powers and enhancements, makes the perfect gameplay for this kind of game, I think you won't get bored of doing repetitive settlements or tasks, main reason why I cleaned most of the map and wanted more, also special mention for the best shotgun of any game in recent years for me, it's SO COOL that I used it exclusively for the most part of the game.

The world is interesting but really irregular in terms of zone interest, some are really full of places to visit and explore while some others are emptier and are not that interesting to visit but at least you have a good bunch of vehicles to explore it and while the driving system is not the best it works perfectly and it's fun when you are trying to destroy a convoy at the purest Mad Max style, it's cool to be completely honest.

Story tho, it's not interesting, it's simple (not that I was asking for a complex narrative in this very case) and short, 7 main missions and, unfortunately, as I did the side-quests first because it was a blast I became so powerful in terms of resistance, powers and guns that the main missions were too easy, don't think that's supposed to happen but it happened, main bosses never felt like real threats and that's not good but at least it was visually impressive to see.

Speaking of performance, everything was correct, no frame dips in general (a few when entering in a new zone or on some really heavy explosive combats at the end of the game) but was really stable at 1440p/Ultra/60fps.

To finish this review, do I regret buying this day one/full price? no, It gave me 15-16 hours of pure fun and madness and that was amazing, had a really good experience with this and I can absolutely recommend it on a personal basis, I enjoyed it a lot but I can totally understand the critics for this game and my advice would be to focus on the gameplay to enjoy this, some other aspects could be weak some way or another but in general the result was good.

What a delightful experience I had with this game, back in the day I enjoyed a lot Homeworld, it was in fact one of the PC games I played the most (not that I had that many but you know, had a great time) so when I saw that Blendo made a VR sequel to Flotilla I was really excited to try it out and here we are.

let's see, campaign is really great, it has some really tricky levels that will make you feel like you are commanding a real space battle, as a VR game the possibilities to see different angles and corners changes everything and the way you play.
There is also a level editor that lets you make your own battles and although I have only made one I can say is very intuitive and easy to use, was great.

Music is also really great because it makes you feel like you are in some kind of epic space odyssey that merges with the movement.

So yeah, if you have an HMD and you like strategy-space games Flotilla 2 is an amazing candidate to be your next favorite one (or at least to be in a really high position) so yeah, check it out, great developer that once again has made an amazing game, totally worth every penny. hopefully you will enjoy it as much as I'm enjoying it.

It's amazing how far we have come and how things have changed in order to see Flower on Steam, a game from Thatgamecompany, unbelievable but now that we have this game here I think it deserves a review so let's get this thing started.

If you never heard about Flower let me introduce it to you, Flower is the second game of a trilogy released by TGC on Sony's Playstation 3 alongside Flow and Journey, each game explored a different thing: nature, relationships or evolution, Flower is about the expansion of nature through our world, a force that won't stop and will keep growing with the pass of time.

As you can already see, visually is a really colorful experience that fuses with the music in order to create a symphony that will get our hands and guide us through this wonderful journey of expansion, it's pretty unique and you can see ideas that will be seen in Journey, the game that came after this one.

Visually wonderful, music is superb, while there is no story properly said but there is something behind the scenes.

Recommending this game is quite difficult because it's a really unique experience but I totally encourage you to buy it, take a moment, relax and enjoy it, hopefully you will love it.

Enjoy.

You are a sheep climbing multiple towers in order to survive a Nightmare that comes after you every night for 8 days, isn't that weird enough as a premise? Because turns out that Catherine is deep, has really cool characters and the love story you are deciding will be good. there's no right or wrong, just your decisions.

The first impression is a bit misleading, yeah, it's a puzzle game where you must climb a tower but that's just one part of the package, you will need to socialize with your pals and completely strangers(?), you will hear the stories of those who are around you, listen carefully and then decide what to do, it's up to you.

Visually is much cleaner and smooth than the previos version of the PS3/360, combination between animated scenes and in-game/engine graphics is superb, something that Atlus knows how to do and one of their distinguish points, music is nice, characters are really good and the story is as amazing as interesting.

Game is not for everyone, lot of people may not find here what they wanted but if the game catches your attention I would really recommend playing it, for real, it's really good. This has been my second run (first one was on PS3 back in the day) and it's yet a really unique game. give it a chance, hopefully it will get you absorbed into this bizarre and weird story of love, a journey through Vincent feelings and the climbing for survival.

Good luck sheep, this could be your last night so be careful.

Wow, Lost in Vivo sure was an amazing and terrifying journey to the depths, this game is what would happen if Silent Hill was a first person shooter, it's not jumpscares but something that builds a tense moment that will make you jump in the right moment.

Monster designs are really cool, scenarios are scary but really well done, music and sound design is amazing and helps a lot to make you feel unsafe, and the story behind the story it's also really good, involving idols, babies, drama and something else.

I really liked the game and I encourage you to play it because I think you will like it too, hopefully you will enjoy it.

Saluton! Do you know Esperanto?

Prince of cosmos is ready to use his Katamari and return the starts to the sky. Katamari Damacy is finally on PC after all this years with this amazing re-release, it's a classic, so unique that it doesn't even need presentation, and there isn't too much to say about this that hasn't been said after all this years, I cannot stop recommending this game, not only because it's really unique with an amazing imaginative world but also because it's a cult classic and now it's the moment to finally play it on PC.

So get your Katamari, get as many objects as possible and make the best starts you can, King of cosmos will be happy with your work.

Enjoy the game, everyone.

When I bought this game I expected something completely different and what I found was even better, I sure loved this game.

Let's get this review started, at first I thought the game would be about making the different clients there are on the game but slowly a "hidden" story starts to open up and you start digging to follow the path and find the truth, thing is that the story is really well executed and makes you explore the different realities to find the correct way.
(pro tip: My advice would be to explore as much as you can, there are hidden places that are really good)

In general I found a really great experience with tons of surprising moments (even a few that were surprising because of some actions I did) and the game itself gave me some Portal vibes here and there.

It was a really great experience, I would really recommend it if you want something different, hopefully those who enter this virtual virtual reality will enjoy it as much as I did, congrats to the developers for such an amazing product, great job.

Well, the day has come, Sunset Overdrive is finally available on PC after all this years and yes, the wait has been worthy.

First things first, personally I consider Sunset Overdrive as one of the most underrated and hidden gems of this generation, so little attention to this tittle despite being one of the most colorful, agile, surprising, crazy and cheerful games from Insomniac games, multiple reasons but none are our business here, this is a praise review for such an amazing game and a great PC port.

Let's put it this way, the world has ended but it's time to have fun, Sunset Overdrive isn't just another game where the world has ended, there are mutants and survivors are as crazy as the creatures, no, this is a sandbox where you get rewarded by killing things with style, moving constantly, enchaining combos and having fun with the different weapons and "amps" the game offers to you, everything works. The movement system is just crazy, let's say it's like a combination of Jet Set Radio + Crackdown, can you imagine that? well, it's real and it doesn't only work but it highlights all the gameplay system, agile, fast, visually it's stunning, combats are not something boring on this one.

Characters are cool, Music is great, the game visually is really colorful and it does a great job building a different apocalyptic world, Sunset City is a futuristic place so yeah, expect crazy stuff.

And now the PC port, in my own experience the game runs flawlessly on my system at 1440p/144fps (it's a powerful grid so take this as my own experience) aside of the mouse control that could be better (and yet I got used to it that I can control the game with no problems) I would say the port it's a good one, runs well, looks cleaner than on ONE (as far as I remember) so I would say that yeah, it's a great work.

So as a conclusion, don't sleep on this one, for real, consider to buy and play this one, it's a gem that will be reminded as cult game when time comes, it's good, it's really fun, original, it's an insomniac game and one of their best, please consider it.

Zone of the Enders, wow, where to start, right? first thing first, ZOE is possibly one of the most (if not the most) important and influential games of the Mecha genre of all time, it has always been ahead if his time and the proof is that it's still this well considered nowadays after all this years, last year Konami announced that Cygames was making a remaster of the second entry of this IP and was going to come to PC, which was a really nice surprise as it meant that there was going to be an official entry of ZOE on PC AT LAST and today here we are.

How's the remaster? visually it's really great, the boost of resolution up to 4K (I played it in 2K) is really noticeable and the framerate higher from mid 20/30 to 60fps are a game changer in terms of fluidity, combats are still something spectacular at this quality and speed.

Performance was, in my experience, steady and fluent, not a single framerate drop, not a single crash, everything was fine from beginning to the end, the only bug I encountered was the L3+R3 buttons not working but wasn't a game breaker so I would say that for me this version was really great in every aspect.

with all this said I think I would really recommend getting inside this game, it's a classic that no one that loves robots should miss by any means, if you are thinking about getting it then go ahead.
