Occasionally, another enemy may chime in, but it isn't necessarily more challenging to fight crowds when, in soulslike games, enemies are usually not so forgiving. However, enemies do progressively become tougher at a natural rate as you progress in the game, exploring new moves, but they are still repetit
While Black Myth: Wukong did a beautiful job of creating an immersive and stunningly captivating environment with vast landscapes, the main criticism lies with its interactive limitations. The majority of the landscape cannot be utilized, limiting players' mobility and maneuverability while explor
As a game, RoboCop: Rogue City marked another significant achievement for Teyon, solidifying the studio's reputation for successfully reviving retro movie franchises in gaming. The gameplay is fun, brutal, and authentic to the RoboCop franchise, making it a must-play for any
Players can join different martial arts schools to learn and practice different styles of combat, including enticingly powerful forbidden techniques. The game will have a multiplayer component where players can interact with each other based on the occupation they choose to pursue, such as doctor, merchant, and ferryman. The Where Winds Meet reveal trailer also shows glimpses of strikingly beautiful and diverse locations. The trailer's final scene especially makes a stunning visual statement and hints at some majestic battle arenas and boss fig
The game is being made in the powerhouse that is Unreal Engine 5 . Utilizing photogrammetry, real-world landmarks from China like Huashan Mountain will be integrated into the game. The visual fidelity looks top-notch, although there's some FPS instability that permeates the trailer. After substantial optimization, this game could deliver the definitive wuxia experience in video ga
The Finals took the gaming community by storm, attracting hundreds of thousands of players even during its beta phase in late 2023. While the game's impressive visuals likely contributed to its popularity, it's the destructible environments that truly set this free-to-play competitive shooter apart from the competition. The combat in the game is extremely dynamic and unpredictable, capable of generating plenty of unforgettable mome
The inconsistent placement of Shrines generally speaks to poor game design, as it feels that particular areas take far longer than they should to get through, making them feel more of a nuisance rather than interesting and fun to navigate. Some areas in Chapter 1 do place Shrines closer to boss fights, which shows that those placed too far have not been well-thought-
It seems like the breadth of independent development power in the industry right now is more impressive than it's ever been, with a plethora of studios plugging away at sequels to successful games or set to release exciting new titles. It could be said that this is the pinnacle of an indie game boom, with smaller teams able to more than pull their weight against larger behemoth studios with millions of dollars in backing. Developers like WayForward, Drinkbox Studios, and The Fullbright Company have firmly established themselves as names to know when it comes to indie games, but there is plenty of new talent on the rise as w
From highly detailed, uncompressed models and geometry powered by Nanite to photorealistic lighting driven by Lumen, each new game using the engine continues to raise the bar for visual fidelity on modern hardware. Here are some of the best games that utilize the power of Unreal Engin
With events like the Independent Games Festival in March, Day of the Devs at Summer Game Fest , and August's Gamescon adding an Indie Area Booth, there will be lots of chances for developers to show off both the array of talent and new indie games. Newer and smaller events like LudoNarraCon aim to celebrate interesting and innovative narrative games, highlighting indie efforts and focusing on fresh ideas. September's BitSummit is the number 1 indie game show in Japan and is supported by game developers and publishers from around the region, demonstrating how indie games have a wide and diverse audie
Black Myth: Wukong 's lack of objective markers and a map will also annoy some players, but again, these are things that are expected by Soulslike veterans. black myth wukong secretsMyth: Wukong would have greatly benefited from a map, though, so it's a shame that it doesn't seem to have one. Objective markers would have been helpful in a couple of specific situations in the game that I can't get into, but I will say that it's highly likely that a lot of players are going to find themselves completely stumped with no idea how to progress the story once they reach a certain point in the g
Considering that the Destined One is a monkey, Black Myth: Wukong missed a wealth of opportunities in exploration that would have transformed the game into a much richer and fun experience when it comes to mobility and movem
