Re: Earthion (PS5) - A Scorching Shmup That Soars Beyond Nostalgia

KillerIsD34D

As a huge Shmup fan, i have of course played it, and here is my little take on it :

  • Amazing retro visuals with cool video options
  • The soundtrack is an absolute blast
  • It really feels like a game that could has been released in the early 90's, and not just a tribute
  • There are some audio options but nothing to mix music and sound effects independently
  • The game is difficult (a thing that i'm used to with this type of games), but not in a good way. Some enemy attacks are difficult to read and faster than your ship - which can sometimes left you with an unfair feeling. For those like me who likes to do "no hit" runs, good f****** luck with this one, even on the easiest mode.

Re: Hell Is Us Free Playable Demo Is Available Now on PS5

I did not enjoy the combat. It is for example not satisfying at all to dodge an attack, and tha overall experience lacks of feedback.

The game is however intriguing, even if it's not especially unique. It reminds me of games like Alan Wake, Death Stranding, Hellpoint, Empyreal, etc.

Re: Xbox Backtracks on $80 Price Tag for The Outer Worlds 2 Following Public Outcry

Well. I'm not gonna lie, i'm disapointed.
I really loved The Outer Worlds, but it was a small game. I dreamed of the same game but with way bigger scope/budget.

So when i discovered TOW2 had that price point, in my head i immedialty thought "yeah, it will be like the first one but 10 times bigger and better".

Now i see this, and i'm telling myself that they are not confident with the price point, which maybe means the game will not be as "big" as i expected...
