GamersBliss's review of Dungeons and Dragons Chronicles of Mystara. Does this arcade remake live up to its predecessors or is it just a waste of money and time from your life?
The friendly folks over at Razer recently sent us their full size Kishi Ultra mobile gaming controller, and this thing didn't disappoint.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."
The Epic Games Store continues to dish out free games and you can add two more to your library this week.
Looks prettay craptastic
Yikes
i guess there is a small group of people who would consider this their cup of tea. a NEW game though like that could have even just better graphics on the 3DS for one...
While people are allowed to have their own opinion, I have to ask how much did this reviewer actually play? At first glance these are fairly bland games, but there is a LOT more than meets the eye. One example is the choices they mention, but these choices DO offer you different places and locations to explore. Sure you end up going through the full adventure, but they're meant to be choices like you would see in the actual D&D game. Like you continue to the boss and run into an elf, do you save his village or continue on your quest? Choice A is one story and choice B is another story.
One thing I didn't see, which makes me question how much did they play, was also the esoteric elements and hidden secrets. There are a number of unique paths for playing as certain characters, hidden rooms, optional weapons and other cool things to discover. One of my favorites is the cursed sword 1, which turns into the Sword of Legend if you swing it up to 50 times. This is the kind of thought you don't see in other arcade games and is part of the charm of D&D. Certain characters also have additional skills, hidden perks and other things that you might not be aware of if you don't look at the manual. Bad on their part, but again this is an arcade game, which doesn't have to include a tutorial.
Anyway, for 15 dollars you're getting a game with tons of secrets and crazy weapons across two games. That's far better than you would find in The Simpsons or Xbox, so I really don't see why this game got such a low score, past the reviewer not really knowing the ins and outs.
I did play online as well, most of the people ran through it, the only time I go to explore was when I was by myself or with my friend. WE found treasure similar to dnd but it wasnt very significant.
