CFD!'s Rob Rich looks at a sequel to a previous XBL Indie release during the Winter Uprising event:
"The original Soulcaster seemed to come out of nowhere. One day Xbox Live was saturated with a bunch of crappy indie “not games,” and the next there was this adventure/tower defense/RPG hybrid making everyone reevaluate what it means to be an indie game on Microsoft’s console. Pretty much everyone loved it, but as with most popular games, they wanted more.
"And here it is. The sequel to the incredibly well-received original. An original that was featured in our very first Indie-Dome, no less. As with the first game, you play the part of a summoner who can’t do much of anything in a fight. And also as before, you get to conjure up the souls of expired warriors to do that which you cannot. So is Soulcaster II a huge step up from the original? Or is it just more of the same?"
It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.
The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.
Scrawl: "Looks like we know how that new Compile Heart countdown is going to end. The latest issue of Famitsu has confirmed that Agarest Senki 2, known as Record of Agarest War 2 in the US, is Compile Heart’s newest title."
1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.
Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.
This is not the first time that Bless Online receives a server merge in Korea. An announcement was made on the official Korean site.
Bless must be an amazing game to be on all these platforms (according to the tags): iPad iPhone Nintendo DS PC PS Vita PS2 PS3 PS4 PSP Wii Wii U Xbox Xbox 360 Xbox One
It's like the first one, which was awesome, only better. Which is more awesome.
I may have to check out both, which are apparently awesome.
It's good but... not good enough to pull me away from some of the more unique indie games worth trying. :(
