Bright Memory: Infinite. Insane Action

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Bright Memory Infinite

Bright Memory: Infinite is a fantastic game. X35 Earthwalker declares that right of the bat. Matter of fact we won’t make you wait. It’s a 10/10 under one condition. The fact that it’s got one developer! Many know by now that Bright Memory: Infinite was developed by one guy. The developer FYQD-Studio. For one person, yes, Bright Memory: Infinite is easily 10/10. bigger developer groups have made games not as good as Bright Memory: Infinite. We just wanted to do a quick G-Blog out of respect for this game. Let’s take a look.

X35 Earthwalker always was interested in Bright Memory: Infinite. X35 played the platinum version of Bright Memory: Infinite. This game is all about action. Players control Shelia, who wields multiple guns and a sword. On top of that she has special tech that allows control over her enemies. For example you can pull enemies towards you and have them stuck in the air in slow motion for you to finish off or blast away. You can do a repelling blast also. Your sword allows for quick and strong slices to destroy foes. Let’s get more into it.

X35 Earthwalker Bright Memory Infinite

Bright Memory: Infinite has combos. You can do a sliding rising slice to launch enemies into the air for you to dice them up before they hit the ground. Unlock skills for more abilities like charging up your blade to release a flying slash attack. Leap into the air to do a powerful electric charged downwards strike. Charge up your fist for a shocking electric punch. Upgrade that same skill for the ultimate power as it becomes a literal flaming explosive punch that one shots everything except big bosses. That fire punch blasts through shields as well. 

The gun play in Bright Memory: Infinite is fantastic. Hit registration is clean allowing for accurate shots and quick dealing with enemies. There’s the assault rifle, shotgun, automatic pistol and sniper rifle. A weapon for all situations. Each gun has alternate fire modes which are all powerful. Assault rifle has tracking mini missiles, Shotgun has incendiary rounds, Automatic pistol has a massive explosive shot and sniper rifle has sticky bombs. Again, more layers to the combat. Some enemies truly get destroyed by certain weapons. For example, even big bosses get stunned and interrupted by the explosive pistol bomb shot.

X35 Earthwalker Bright Memory Infinite

Some dumb reviewers wanted to deduct marks from Bright Memory: Infinite because of how short the game is and how simple the story is or lack thereof. Well of course it’s going to be a short game without an expansive story. Bright Memory: Infinite wasn’t made by 343 industries or Fromsoftware. It’s made by ONE GUY. Bright Memory: Infinite obviously took him a very long time. Of course it’s not going to be a massive game with tons of deep lore. Review and judge games taking into consideration what the game is. Context matters. 

Bright Memory: Infinite isn’t all action as there is a stealth section because your equipment stopped working thanks to the anomaly. You find a nearby lethal weapon and get to work sneaking past enemies soldiers and assassinate whoever you please. There’s also a part where you get support with a vehicle. You have a drive sequence with a powerful rocket launcher to take out enemy vehicles and escape a collapsing cave. Shelia also has excellent mobility. she can double jump, evade dash and even run along walls. Again, it’s all action. You can time your block to help stagger enemies and even reflect certain projectiles back at opponents. For example you can reflect shotgun fire and flaming arrows back at enemies.

Overall Bright Memory: Infinite is a fantastic Xbox exclusive game. Bright Memory: Infinite Platinum Edition shines best off course on the Xbox Series X. There’s the option to play in either first or third person mode. There’s different skins for Shelia as well from casual clothes to her default combat gear. Bright Memory: Infinite especially with the affordable price is worth playing even today. No regrets over here. The developer FYQD-Studio did a fantastic top tier job. We at X35 Earthwalker look forward to what’s next for this game and the developer. Now Bright Memory: Infinite may be fantastic but not on the same level as… the ‘Earth Walk!’

X35 Earthwalker Xbox Game Pass

Xbox Game Pass without a fought is the best deal in gaming. The best place to game is on the Xbox. Xbox has so many games that they’re isn’t enough time to play them all sadly.

Xbox is Number 1 and Getting Stronger

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Xbox

Xbox is number 1 in the gaming world and it’s only getting stronger and stronger. X35 Earthwalker has been with Xbox for a very long time and seen the growth in fames the powerful gaming consoles and what was to come. Xbox has become the biggest giant with success after success. Loads more games, many studios, showcases, awards, living in people’s heads rent free and more. Xbox is also being unfairly treated by so called gaming media outlets and content creators and people tend to focus on those false negative things more. X35 Earthwalker himself wants to speak on this matter as a G-blog this time. Let’s take a look.

Quick note – X35 Earthwalker has talked about all and this and more in deeper details on the Spotify podcast. Below are the links for them. 

Digital vs Physical – Listen up

Xbox vs PlayStation. Let’s Settle This – Listen up

Xbox Dominance. They are getting Stronger – Listen up

Xbox continues to Dominate. Number One – Listen up

What matters most is the games. Xbox has quality, the quantity and the variety when it comes to the fames. Much more than Playstation. Before Xbox put the four games on to Playstation, Xbox had Hi-fi Rush, Grounded, Sea of thieves, Pentiment, Minecraft, Minecraft dungeons, Flight simulator (there’s other simulators too), Diablo 4, Fallout, Stalker, Redfall, Forza Horizon 5, Gears of War 5, Palworld, Starfield, Halo Infinite off course and much more. Then on top of that there’s many Xbox exclusives on the way like Blade, Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, Ara: History untold, Visions of Mana, Indiana Jones and Avowed. You want more? We can give more. X35 has a list he made in 2022, of xbox exclusives that were coming out and there was over 30. Off course some have come out by now while others are still to come like Bright Memory: Infinite, Tetris Effect: Connected, Gears Tactics, Stalker 3, Psychonauts 2, The Gunk, CrossfireX, Gable, Exomecha, The Ascent, Scorn, Second extinction, Warhammer 40000: dark tide and more still. Yet idiots want to Xbox has no games or trash games. Those people are morons. With Xbox having over 30 studios under them, you can expect even more games. Compare this incomplete list to what Playstation has and it’s not even close. X35 Earthwalker covered this and more in his podcast.

Next is the direction that gaming is going in. Less console focus and more services and software. X35 Earthwalker went into deep detail concerning this in his podcast. More people are getting PCs which is a win for Microsoft (Xbox). More people are on subscription services like Xbox Game Pass and PS+. Gaming isn’t the same as it was 10 years ago and even 5 years ago. Even the digital vs physical statistics show this. The whole world is going digital and even cloud. In this big area Xbox is ahead of everyone else. Matter of fact, sony is playing catch up right now. Xbox has set up an ecosystem and it’s not even in its final form yet. Xbox basically can be played anywhere. Console, PC, Tablet and Smart phones. We have tried all these out and they work well. We know there’s a new Xbox console on the way and even talks of the handheld one. Xbox Series X is already the most powerful console right now but the next one is going to be much stronger. Also the next Xbox hardwares will have AI involved and that’s another reason why Xbox is ahead… Microsoft. Microsoft is easily ahead of Sony in terms of money and power but Microsoft its also big and leading in the AI game. This is a massive advantage and it means better, more powerful and intelligent hardware and tech. It’s been reported that Microsoft owns 60-70% of the cloud gaming market. So Xbox has the majority.

Xbox also is dipping real big into the mobile gaming world too thanks to King, who is part of the ABK (Activision, Blizzard and King). King is big in the mobile gaming world. Ever heard of Candy Crush? Thought so. Then Blizzard back on good terms with Netease. Netease has many mobile games and are deep in China. Tis another connection with the east. Netease also got the Project Mugen which is huge and going to a big deal. Since Blizzard is under  Xbox, that means there’s no real reason for Project Mugen to not be on Xbox. Do you see what’s going on here.Revenue reports show that Xbox overall are doing very well and the ABK is a big factor in it. So that’s an excellent move from Xbox. On top of all this, Xbox Game Pass alone is a good of reason to own an Xbox. We spoke about this many times but the many on the Xbox Game Pass is better than the Playstation lineup. You get ALL the wolfenstein, Dead Space (including the remake), Mass Effect, Fable, Fallout, Gears of War and Halo Games plus over 100 more games including the resident evil remake game. Show me a better deal in gaming! You can’t do it! Xbox is the best and the best place for gamers. Think about it massive games like Ark Survival Ascended, Palworld and the game of the generation Starfield alone will keep you busy for hours and months on end. There are multiple people who already have over 1000 hours in Starfield. Then add the other great games and you actually don’t have enough time to play them all.

From the outside it isn’t as obvious at times because content creators, streamers and off course the gaming media outlets target Xbox and are very biased. Also known as the ‘Xbox tax’. The playstation fanboys also known as ponies join in as well. They will magnify any issues and downplay all success and good news Xbox gets. While ignoring or giving a free pass to all of playstation’s failings… as time goes on PlayStation is more of them. Playstation has suffered multiple blows and Ls. Let’s mention some of them: playstation bug that deleted some gamers digital games from their library, spider-bug 2 was overall disappointing concerning results including winning no awards, losing investors, lost 10 billion concerning stocks, final fantasy 7 rebirth wasn’t selling well, no major existing franchise release until 2025, state of play wasn’t successful, lost studios and shut down studios, basically going third party, playstation gamers aren’t playing and talking about Foamstars and helldivers 2 is being carried by pc players. On top of that Sony has decided to go day one release with PC like helldivers 2 and soon to be ghost of Tsushima. Now very recently playstation is messing up again as they are now forcing pc players of helldivers 2 to have a playstation account. Many pc players reacting aren’t happy at all. playstation when they finally get a good thing happen, they find a way to mess it up. Helldivers 2 is their only real up point except Stella blade (which they also messed up by censoring it after everyone has bought it). So as you can see, playstation has far more negative stuff going on while xbox is having a fantastic year so far.

X35 Earthwalker Xbox June showcase

Overall it’s pretty clear what’s going on. Xbox is having a fantastic year so far, even better than last year while playstation has been taking L after L. Xbox is ahead of everyone including Nintendo concerning the new direction of gaming. Mobile, service, xcloud etc. Plus Xbox will take over the hand held console gaming as they will have the strongest hand held console buffed up by AI built into their whole ecosystem. Xbox has over 30 studios under them so more games are on the way. Microsoft has the most money are so can buy more studios or set up more things. Xbox Game Pass is the best deal in all of gaming. Starfield is getting a massive update that’s going to make it take over gaming once again. Palworld went viral and brought many players in and more updates are coming for it. Xbox is ahead in money, studios, games, console, services, ecosystem and show cases. Pure Xbox has some details on the showcase. It’s clear who’s number one. That’s Xbox. We are looking for to the June showcase, Starfield update and more. Keep it up Xbox. Just don’t give our major games to playstation. Keep our big games. Gamers want to play them, they need to get an Xbox or PC. X35 Earthwalker, the worlds smartest man has spoken. Now it’s clear that Xbox is winning but what’s the true winner is… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Age of Water. Submerged World

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Age of Water

Age of Water is an Open World Adventure Massive Multiplayer Online game developed by Three Whales Studio and published by ‘Gaijin Network‘. Age of Water is said to be coming out the 18th of April 2024 on the Xbox Series X, PS5 and PC. X35 Earthwalker loves wonderfully done open worlds in gaming. Age of Water is said to be unforgiving… we doubt that. Let’s take a look. 

Age of Water has a simple to understand story. Ir’s post apocalyptic so you already know something big has happened and the world is in a bad state. The whole world is submerged. People live in settlements and homes they built on top of what ever is above the water. Survival is the top priority here. Platers control a sea captain. Lead your boat through a “unforgiving” world. Explore, fight, trade and mine.

X35 Earthwalker Age of Water

Games like Age of Water normally haver lots for players to do and a lot going on. Since Age of Water is also a MMO, we can expect co-operation with other players to help conquer the seas sort off. We hear there will be storms and off course hostile groups on the oceans. Expect to encounter people on small boats while some have warships. So players must pick their battles wisely. What we hope for though are additional threats but in the ocean itself. We truly hope there are actual dangers like sharks, maybe giant squid or depending on how real world they want the game to be, maybe something more fictional.  

X35 Earthwalker Age of Water

Players will get involved in trades. Sell some artifacts that you find. Maybe straight up take someone else’s boat for yourself. You can also build your own too. On the business side of things players should aim to mine the the resources found on the ocean bottom. Not only is it resources but it’s the way to learn some secrets and uncover the mysteries in Age of Water.

X35 Earthwalker Age of Water

We checked out some Age of Water gameplay and it’s what we expected. We like that some people haven’t given up on the idea of finding land. There are settlements for players to engage with. Speak with the local people and even take on missions. Of course a game like Age of Water must have bases. You can construct your own base in this watery world. There is off course technology to spend points on and unlock new things, including stuff like “superstructures”.  

Overall Age of Water looks like a good game so far but nothing has truly grabbed us right now. There’s definitely a number of things going on here. We like the ocean, we like a post apocalyptic world that brings in the feeling of one. We like the style of the game as well. Lots of gamers will like this and be drawn the world. Those massive warships are currently the most impressive thing so far. We will have to see more of this game though. The developers ‘Three Whales Studio’ have done a very good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker might have to place a tracker on Age of Water. Now Age of Water may have a submerged world but it’s not deep enough for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn. It’s War!

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is an Open world Action Role Playing Game develop by ‘A44 Games‘ and published by ‘Kepler Interactive’. Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is said to be coming out in the summer of 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4 and PC. This game will be in the Xbox Game pass as well. X35 Earthwalker is interested to see what this game delivers in full. Seems that Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has a lot to prove already. Let’s talk a look.

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has a busy world. Humanity has been pushed to the brink of extinction (as always) due to evil on the loose. What evil? An army of the undead who belong to the old gods. What happened? The door to the afterlife was opened. How and why? We aren’t telling you. Now what’s called the coalition Army is taking the fight to them. It’s humanity vs gods… well more like budget discount gods. As always we are betting that these so called gods are actually going to be lame and disappointing. Maybe Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn can prove us wrong.

X35 Earthwalker Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

Players control Nor Vanek. She is part of the Coalition Army. A dangerous member for sure. She has a pet/companion/friend called Enki. This little creature has magical powers. Nor is definitely going to need Enki and its powers for this fight. Enki basically looks like a small wolf with straight goat horns and pointy narrow elephant ears. A corrupted evolved Umbreon maybe. Enki would have been better if it was bigger in size. Nor Vanek looks cool and military. Definitely liking the hair too. Adding more variety to the gaming world. She has competent written almost all over her. What we don’t like is that the developers went for another safe play with the generic female body type. slim, default standard issue that you see of npc in like almost every game. Developers these days are too scare to add meat and curves (not fat) to female designs. We need more variety. We also don’t like her eye lashes. It’s the same big eye lashes that you see on the internet today and we hate them. They never look good. Otherwise we like the look of the two stars of the game.

X35 Earthwalker Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

Now for the combat. This is the main things going on here. We see a main melee weapon mainly an axe. There’s a rifle for that long range action. Lastly of course there’s magic and that mystical business. There’s a whole combo system with special moves for different purposes. There’s a poised shot, a counter attack, charged pistol shots, sprint attacks, attacks you sync up with Enki and more. You even get a nice breakdown of the special things you do and their numbers on the HUD. Effective system by the looks of it. This does remind us of Fable 3 which had melee weapon, gun and magic. Hopefully Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn blends these things together well enough. There’s almost endless room for creativity. So no excuse here. Will there be magic infusion? What about area of effect abilities? We know that executions very cleanly utilises your weapons. We need to see that sort of blend in the game as well. Also each weapon needs to actually be effective. Lords of the Fallen made their ranged weapons very useful. Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn needs to get this right. combat does look clean though. We see smooth movement, turns and strikes.

X35 Earthwalker Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

Next is the world. Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is an open world game. So we expected a big world with multiple locations and variety. We see basically villages, walled cities, rocky and snowy places, canyon and dusty places, palm trees, coasts and bodies of water. We do like how this world looks. Not depressing and dead. There’s some life and colour in this world. Will collectibles be a thing in? There are chests for players to find. For example you might get Blast Grenade. Obvious what it does but what’s not obvious is that Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn seems to have a system where getting multiple of that item can upgrade it. Increasing its number of uses and stuff like that. Players will need to find other members of the Coalition Army like the weaponry and explosives experts to unlock new services and upgrades. There’s spots and checkpoints that you can get to restore health and take a little break. 

X35 Earthwalker Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

We checked out some Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn gameplay and it’s what we expected for the most part. We aren’t impressed with the enemies. They seem to be mostly humanoid with some having auras and shields. We see some others like giant spiders. We hope to see a cool variety but right now the enemies list looking weak. We do like that enemies receiving killing blows can lose their limbs. nice, gory and adds some flavour to the combat. There’s also a mechanic for the sniper gamers. If you score a long range kill shot on an enemy (assuming it’s kill only), you get a bullet camera to see the journey of your shot. Nice touch to the rifle gameplay. Enemies can be interrupted with certain attacks, especially charged shots. Multi jumping for more mobility and aerial control. Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has a lot of going on in the game. From combat, world, mechanics, options, mobility etc.  

Overall Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn looks like an excellent game. Graphics are very good and the animations are very good also. Let’s quickly address some of the drama. People telling others online to boycott and avoid this game because sweet baby inc had some part in it at some point. sweet baby inc sucks and ruin almost everything they touch BUT they are NOT the developers. The developers are A44 Games. A44 Games worked really hard on this game. They even delayed the game to make sure to get everything top and ready. Boycotting the game will only truly punish A44 Games. A bunch of people worked hard and did their best to deliver a game and people are going to attack them to attack sweet baby inc. That’s pathetic. At least now A44 games learnt the truth about sweet baby inc and avoid them from now on but maybe they didn’t know before as many people still don’t know anything about sweet baby inc. Judge the game based on the game itself and not outside drama. If Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn sucks to you then avoid it but if it’s good then give it a go. Very simple. A44 Games has done an excellent job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an eye out for this game. Now Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn may have a war with the gods.

Another Crab’s Treasure. A Crab’s Life

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

Another Crab’s Treasure is an action adventure game developed and published by ‘Aggro Crab‘. Another Crab’s Treasure is said to be coming out the 25th of April 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker can confirm that crabs are tasty.  Another Crab’s Treasure is making the crustacean the main star here. Let’s take a look.

Another Crab’s Treasure has an understandable story. Players control Kril the crab… a hermit crab. Basically someone took Kril’s shell and sold it most likely. Or he was behind on rent and it got repossessed. To a hermit crab, their shell is literally their home. It’s that important. So Kril can’t just get it back. He has to buy it back. Life’s a hoe like that sometimes. Buying back your repossessed shell isn’t cheap. So the only logical thing to do is embark on an epic quest to recover treasure which can be used to get the shell back.

X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

So Kril arms himself and gets to work. You must battle and fight your way through. dodge attacks, time your strikes and survive. Keil isn’t the only one looking for treasure. The ocean is a dangerous place. Predators exist after all. Besides, there’s bigger things happening in the ocean. The ocean is polluted. Kril may be the one to learn the dark secret behind the pollution of the ocean… no, we won’t assume it’s the works of man. After all it could be ocean denizens with a crab in a bucket mentality.

A hermit crab isn’t strong so Kril will need protection, especially since he has no shell anymore. Players must find trash which can be used as a shell instead to help tank blows from enemies. So crab a food tin, box or whatever… then stick it on you. You Ian;’t done now. Trash in the ocean can be used for more things including weapons… maybe a firearm. Don’t forget about the solution though. Trash ain’t clean. Gunk is here and we aren’t talking about that great game called The Gunk.

X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

We checked out some Another Crab’s Treasure gameplay and it’s not really what we expected. There’s more to the combat. You’ll get the chance to learn what’s called umami techniques from the other ocean dwellers. These are strong attacks that can change the battle. For example using a bobbit worm to trap enemies or even a mantis shrimp punch. Now if you didn’t tell from the gameplay, Another Crab’s Treasure is described similar to a soulslike. So expect some difficulty. There’s assist options for players if they want to make the game easier but the same options can be used to make the game harder.

Overall Another Crab’s Treasure looks like a good game. The graphic style works for a game like this which has some comedy to it. It’s a more casual and fun atmosphere instead of everything being dead and dark. There’s jokes and some stuff to keep things light but beware… the game is said to be a challenge for sure. We doubt it though. We liking the different characters, their accents and the different foes. This just might be a fun game. The seaweed looking sort of suspicious though. The developers ‘Aggro Crab’ have done a very good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to keep an eye open for this game. Now Another Crab’s Treasure may have a whole ocean but it’s still too small for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Stasis: Bone Totem. Underwater horror base?

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Stasis: Bone Totem

Stasis: Bone Totem is a point & click puzzle horror game developed and published by ‘The Brotherhood’. Stasis: Bone Totem is said to be coming out the 28th of March 2024 on the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5 and PS4. It’s already out on PC. X35 Earthwalker has never heard of Stasis before. Stasis: Bone Totem is trying to make this a serious adventure. Let’s take a look.

Stasis: Bone Totem is the latest game in the Stasis anthology. Stasis: Bone Totem is playing a different game here. New characters, new story and an underwater location to check out. Stasis: Bone Totem focuses on a husband and wife team. Mac and Charlie. They are ocean salvagers. That’s how they make a living. They discover an abandoned oil rig… it’s always an oil rig. They are totally safe.

X35 Earthwalker Stasis: Bone Totem

Discovering the oil rig is start of the horrors. Now if the protagonists were black, there would be no game as they would ignore the oil rig and move on… but the protagonists want to be like mystery inc and look for clues or whatever. They end up uncovering a secret, a horrific secret that a certain corporation… not umbrella, wants to keep a secret. The cayne corporation will do whatever it takes to keep this a secret.

Now Stasis: Bone Totem doesn’t have Charlie Mac working alone. They have their “trusty Super-Toy” called Moses. Listen to this description of the game. “you’ll encounter an immersive narrative filled with spine-tingling horror and unexpected twists.” Now we definitely doubt this but hopefully they can make this happen.

X35 Earthwalker Stasis: Bone Totem

Stasis: Bone Totem has got good focus on puzzles. This underwater base has a good number of them. As a point & click players will need to keep their eyes open and pay attention to all the details. How much noter making do you readers think is required. 

We checked out some Stasis: Bone Totem gameplay and it’s what we expected. Read this, “With stunning visuals, a music score by Mark Morgan, a screenplay written by a Hollywood ace, voice acting by veteran actors, and a gripping storyline that will keep you on the edge of your seat.” We always respect hard work and effort put into games. We want to see all of this pay off. 

 

Overall Stasis: Bone Totem looks like a very good game. There’s definitely something going on. You can’t trust oil rigs… especially abandoned ones. The animations are very good overall. The graphics are what’s expected and very good, most of the time. The developers ‘The Brotherhood’ have done a very good job. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to hear what happens with this game. Now Stasis: Bone totem may have underwater environments but they are too dry for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Sker Ritual. Round based survival

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Sker Rituals

Sker Ritual is a round based survival game developed and published by ‘Wales Interactive‘. Sker Ritual is said to be coming out the 18th of April 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PS5 and PC. X35 Earthwalker will give this game a chance and examine it for a moment. Sker Ritual is looking to bring that monstrous, dark horror feeling to the action. Let’s take a look.

Sker Ritual is all about stopping that mean lady Elisabeth. She’s going to use the siren’s song. So what’s the solution? Fight, blast and shoot many things in rounds to victory. That’s how. You’re helping Elisabeth’s daughter Arianwen to stop her. Mother daughter drama possibly. At its core, Sker Ritual is just about that action. It’s a zombie horror shooter really and that’s good stage as there are players to just want to fight zombies… no story, just fight.

X35 Earthwalker Sker Rituals

So the main threat of course are the hordes of ‘Quiet Ones’. These guys are continuous and will not stop, unless you stop them… for them. While the relentless hordes are after you, you’ve got to solve mysteries as those are your main true missions. Off course players will need to upgrade their weapons to match the dangerous threat of the quiet ones. There’s even what’s called miracles. These miracles are Celtic god powers. We hear there’s a whole load of them. What miracles do is “offers a choice of three random upgradable powers that buff or alter your shooting, melee, grenade and healing”. They have different attributes, rarity and power off course.

X35 Earthwalker Sker Rituals

Now off course the main stars here are thews hordes of enemies. The quiet ones are here and ready to play… a bit rough. Sker Island has got some buffed up guys. The elites who each have their own abilities. They will hopefully force players to shake things up, like change location and combat approach to deal with them. No one strat carries through game. So you know about the quiet ones but we hear that there’s more threats… new ones too. Some reportedly do not even have a face!!! Regardless, kill themn you must, especially if you want to grab miracles. 

X35 Earthwalker Sker Rituals

We checked out some Sker Ritual gameplay and it’s what we expected. Players with experience in call of duty zombies and arena battles will do well here. Gamers who played Maid of Sker will notice that Sker Ritual follows the evil ending. Miracles can be enhanced to make things truly supernatural. There’s elites and then there’s supercharged elites who will bring the pain. Those who are here to play can grind through the ‘sker pass’ and even dread levels. Strangest of all maybe… there’s Easter eggs (bunny not included). So maybe look for them. Almost best of all is that Sker Ritual is multiplayer. You can play with three friends or family online to face the hordes together… as friends and family should. No local co-op sadly & shamefully.

Overall Sker Ritual looks like it’s going to be a great game. There’s depth to it and multiple ways to play. It’s all about action and gets players right to it. Don’t worry about fighting solo as it’s been said that “the intensity of Sker Island’s hordes scale to the number of players.” Also there’s interchangeable masks for players to collect and use to “induce fear on “Sker’s inhabitants”. Look into that yourself. It’s good to see games that just focus on the action sometimes. Graphics do look good enough too. The developers ‘Wales Interactive’ have done a great job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an ear open concerning this. Now Sker Ritual may have quiet ones but they are too loud for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Teared. Get the knife?

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Teared

Teared is an action platformer arcade style game developed by ‘Juanmod‘ and published by ‘Jandusoft‘. Teared is said to be coming out in the first quarter of 2024 on the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. X35 Earthwalker has played so many games and recognises many factors. Teared wants to bring some familiar arcade action. Let’s take a look.

Teared is all about the action and less of the story… just like old school games. Players control a hero apparently who is on a journey and will face all kinds of threats and foes. The trailer makes it clear that players must get the knife. Seriously, Teared reminds us of Ghost ‘N Goblins. Using the daggers. Games like this can go in real hard when done right.

X35 Earthwalker Teared

In basic arcade style, Teared has 9 levels and we hear there are 2 bonus stages as well. There’s also bosses. Said to be colossal. There’s also supposed to be a range of enemies to face like spiders, even dragons, cyclops, skeletons and more. Teared has room for precision with your attacks. Players might have to aim for some spots.

Apparently there’s 3 weapons that you have to find. Teared states that these three weapons are distinct, providing their own advantages. We can easily see how to make multiple distinct weapons in a game like this. Based on the visual style and the animations, we don’t expect much from the bosses… hopefully this games proves us wrong.

X35 Earthwalker Teared

We checked out some Teared gameplay and it’s what we expected. Teared is all about the action. You jump in and start throwing daggers at foes while progressing to the right. As a platformer there’s jumps, gaps, water, magma, elevation, bridges and more. There’s things or should we say monsters active in the background. 

Overall Teared seems like an alright game. At the base and core this is a straight up arcade style get your score for your actions. It’s combat and killing foes. See a variety of levels and beat the game. Visually and animation wise Teared doesn’t look that good. So what matters here is how good the core is. The developers ‘Juanmod’ have done an alright job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker like to see honest games do well. Now Teared may have arcade action but it’s not on the level of… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Predecessor. Next Gen MOBA

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

Predecessor is a new Multiplayer Online Battle Arena game developed and published by ‘Omeda Studios‘. Predecessor is said to be coming out the 28th of March 2024 on the Xbox Series X, PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker is the leading expert in game design and knows what MOBA need to get right. Predecessor is not messing around when it comes to the action. Let’s take a look.

Predecessor isn’t just a Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA). It’s called a Next Generation MOBA. Just one look at Predecessor and you can see that it is. Predecessor will obviously remind players of other famous games in the same genre. The two are clearly Paladins and Overwatch. Both are great games. X35 Earthwalker prefers Paladins. Predecessor so far looks like it’s easily going to better and bigger than both of these. Next Generation doesn’t just mean visually better but also can mean mechanics and depth. Predecessor isn’t playing around here.

X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

Predecessor has numerous characters. We mean over 30 characters and these lads and ladies have loads of variety and distinct from each other. We love that. Just taking a look at the cast and you can probably see them being in different games and universes. We got Narbash who looks like a tribal nature loving ork. Gadget who is all about tech with a tech suit and gadgets. Zarus looks like a reptile tribe warrior who while old school living but powerful weapons. Sparrow is the ranger, so all about bows and arrows… let those arrows fly. Iggy & Scorch are the heroic pair. One is the small mini goblins looking thing while the other is almost like a discount two legged dragon who love fire. Riktor looks like a monster that got infused with technology like an experiment gone wrong. Sevarog looks like a dark reaper of souls from Destiny or something like that. A monster for sure. There’s much more and they look from cool to straight awesome. Also the female characters look strong and beautiful. Honestly the ladies look cool and range from friendly humble looking to, ascended dangerous or evil to rocking and cool. All character design overall is fantastic.

X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

There’s tons of abilities in Predecessor. Each character has passive, basic, alternate, primary, secondary and ultimate ability. This alone is bigger than other MOBA games. 6 abilities per character opens up variety, mechanics, combos and different situations. For example let’s look at Sevarog. Passive is ‘Reaper of Souls’ which means you gain a soul when killing with an ability. Souls grant more health and siphon damage. Basic is ‘Crush’ which is a simple melee hit. Alternate is ‘Phantom Rush’ which makes you dash forwards and through enemies. Primary is ‘siphon’ which harms all enemies in front of you with a hand and then heals Sevarog. Secondary is ‘Subjugate’ which calls down a dark energy attack which roots and later slows foes. Ultimate is ‘Colossal Blow’ which is a big swing on enemies and sending them flying. So the goal with Sevarog is to get in close and smash enemies, fish off with preferably siphon to gain health, reap souls and get more health. If team weakens a group then Colossal Blow will get a big multi kill and lots of sounds. Become super tanky and trap foes with Subjugate. Remember this is just one character with 6 abilities. There’s over 30 characters in Predecessor.

The main goal here in Predecessor is to complete objectives which gets you gold. So killing minions, enemy heroes and off course towers. Use gold to buy items that affect what your heroes can do. This includes going invisible, teleport and even freeze time. Items also can improve hero attributes like health, power and speed. So players are rewarded for playing well and being active. Even minion hunting matters and allows for upgrades. This reminds us of the system in Paladins. Thee upgrades truly matter and make a difference. This off course ends to more synergies with characters and items ands then the whole team for what might lead to broken stuff.  

We checked out some Predecessor gameplay and it’s what we expected. We like how the game looks graphically. Obviously more maps will been the way and all the characters will be up and ready. Over time you know more characters will be introduced. We like how some of these attacks really look. A few attacks do look lack luster though like Line Temp for Shinbi. Games like this are incredibly hard to do right, specially when int come to balancing. they can’t be quick to do patches yet. Nergs are better to do than buffs and this needs to be done carefully and with proper data. 30+ characters doing their own thing and effects is going to be tough. Especially when counters are a factor too. We look forward to seeing how all this is handled. The 1v1s on Offlanes, the chaos open the Midlanes and the fights for camps in the Jungle.  

Overall Predecessor looks fantastic. Definitely looking Next Gen and has the mechanics expected of something Next Generation. The graphics and visuals are top tier and it shows that serious work went into this game. The special effects and the attacks are worth having a viewing gallery off. The amount of abilities and mechanics, with the combinations of match factors allows for a lot to happen and variety in the game. The developers ‘Omeda studios’ have done a fantastic job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker are excited to see what this game truly brings. Now Predecessor may be Next Gen but it’s still many leagues behind… the ‘Earth Walk!’
