Okeys, got a final tomorrows n' in me resting period I fired a few games I downloaded this week:
Shaya Closed Beta:
(Actually got this one 2 weeks agoes)
Pleasantly surprised!
Ayes, it be a Lineage clone, but it's what I'd like Lineage to feel if I had the time n' money to get back in that gamey...so let's review main aspects:
ºCharacter customization: Lineage clone tag should be more than enough ta dissuade ya, at least I did get a matey face with some facial hair
ºSetting originality und story: Uh, the
Story? Oh hold on! I'll get half a Shakespeare monkey crew to whip something quick
ºGame play: PVP fun and my fighter jumps like my Beastman toy never did! FUN!
Kinda troublesome ta switch between character factions though but as has been pointed by better n' more serious reviews, it be more a difference of which set of action figures ya prefer, the bad emo guys or the goodie two shoes pretty faces.
ºFINAL SAY:
If you like PVP and your lineage servers are filled to the brim with more than one hundred armour of Jehovah set with helm of Hades and Spear of Odin with invisibility of Ala items, then this is a good chance to get in the competition early!
PIRATES...OF...THE...CARIBEAN...ON...LINE???!!!
D'aaaaahrr!
Get a cheap make money quick gimmick matey!
Grab the graphics of monkey
Put the characters from the movie talking to ya n mix 'em with rum, lots and lots of rum!
ºCharacter customization:
If
ºStory, background and what not:
You fight like a dairy farmer!
ºGame play:
Every enemy I met I've annihilated!
(I swear this is what the FREE interface screams to you!)
ºFINAL SAY:
With your breath I'm sure they all suffocated!
PS :( I would actually play this free simple thingie if it weren'ts fer the whole PAY PAY PAY BECAUSE IM THE RED HEADED STEPCHILD OF A GAMESPY SUBSCRIPTIONS STAFF MEMBER!)
DUNGEON RUNNERS
(Anyone remember that '98 game where you had this executioner guyser with huge horns on his helmet and a funny big dumb guy voice that threw axes like those old ass dungeon crawler arcade games? And the sexy sex fiend sorceress chick with her Amazon womanpower feminist knight woman parody lady?)
Powers of the fantastic twins activate!
Form of Diablo game style!
Form of low poly fun Freedom force graphics!
Now let s call the NCsoft blue monkey to carry one of us in a bucket while the other one serves as the flying mount!
ºFINAL SAY:
Not bad gamey, but I d rather get that other one I mentioned since my machine can t take a lot these days :p
EXTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL!
Wellie wells wells! NC soft soon adds yet another pretty banner to their cinematic game list in their brand new (for mes) NC soft game launcher thingie!
No sooner Dungeon Runners goes into the wilderness that we hear of a new multiplayer game with manga bots!
My intuition did not fail and I found meself face to face with a Gundam themed Rakion/Gunz that, to it s credit, performed acceptably well in me shitty system.
ºFINAL SAY
Not me cup o hi caffeine beverage but if ya liked Bots, Gunz, Rakion or those quickie arena multiplayer games I d say go ahead, it be free and fun!
N a definite for the cyber owners!
(Quienes no sean sudacas como yo probablemente no tengan idea a que carajo me refiero así que no importa, say-no-more vieja!)
R(ising) F(orce) ONLAINE!
I remember trying a very early alpha/beta something test server for
ºCharacter customization:
Customization as compared to other Korean grind fests was kinda fun but it felt like those toys I had in the eighties whose body parts you could exchange (particularly with the robot fellers) so I'll have to go with a miser "comme si comme ça"
ºStory, background and Races:
Well, this be unusual!
It looks fer once we don t have humans (Aaargh! Gostro can only be human to have full freaky bothersome effect) but their descendancy and what not, the elven dudes were too gay for mes and the dark crystal sci-fi escapees were far too neo lemming for yours truly so I settled for the most heavy metal thing I could find (the Grievous's fan boys could use some more customization options thoughs!)
ºGame play:
(Finallys!)
All right, it plays exactly like Lineage, it s fun for pvp and all that but lately I don t be on the mood fer dedicating too much time ta hunt things just to be automatically levelled up in stats.
FINAL SAY:
If you like PVP, Lineage and manga styles mechaniscifiyingly thingies or at least Legends of the dark crystal in Asian pop style...
Well! It's a good free booty to kill time till some big cool MMO comes out.
Then again you can always go with Zero that has a more honest Diablo grind style :P
THE CONCLUSION
The different backgrounds and ecloded paths of the Keynesian state as compared to that of the welfare policy seem incredibly worthy of being reviewed thrice!
Heh, man, you are nuts. Loved the Monkey Island references. Slightly off-topic, but hey, you started it:
PIRATE: This is the END for you, you gutter-crawling cur!
SWORDMSTR: I've got a long, sharp lesson for you to learn today
GUYBRUSH: And I've got a little TIP for you, get the POINT?
PIRATE: Soon you'll be wearing my sword like a shish-kabob
SWORDMSTR: My sword is famous all over the caribbean.
GUYBRUSH: First you'd better stop waving it like a feather duster
PIRATE: My handkerchief will wipe up your blood.
SWORDMSTR: My name is feared in every dirty corner of this island
SWORDMSTR: I usually see people like you passed-out on tavern floors.
GUYBRUSH: So you got that job as janitor after all.
PIRATE: People fall at my feet when they see me coming
SWORDMSTR: My wisest enemies run away at the first sight of me!
GUYBRUSH: Even BEFORE they smell your breath?
PIRATE: I once owned a dog that was smarter than you.
SWORDMSTR: Only once I've met such a coward.
GUYBRUSH: He must have taught you everything you know.
PIRATE: You make me want to puke
SWORDMSTR: If your brother's like you, better marry a pig.
GUYBRUSH: You make me think somebody already did
PIRATE: Nobody's ever drawn blood from me and nobody ever will!
SWORDMSTR: No one will ever catch ME fighting as badly as you do.
GUYBRUSH: You run that fast?
PIRATE: You fight like a dairy farmer
SWORDMSTR: I will milk every drop of blood from your body
GUYBRUSH: How appropriate. You fight like a cow!
PIRATE: I got this scar on my face during a mighty struggle!
SWORDMSTR: My last fight ended with my hands covered with blood.
GUYBRUSH: I hope you've learned to stop picking your nose.
PIRATE: Have you stopped wearing diapers yet?
SWORDMSTR: I hope you have a boat ready for a quick escape.
GUYBRUSH: Why, did you want to borrow one?
PIRATE: I've heard you were a contemptible sneak
GUYBRUSH: Too bad no one's ever heard of YOU at all
PIRATE: You're no match for my brains, you poor fool.
SWORDMSTR: I've got the courage and the skill of a master swordsman!
GUYBRUSH: I'd be in real trouble if you ever used them.
PIRATE: You have the manners of a beggar
SWORDMSTR: Every word you say to me is stupid.
GUYBRUSH: I wanted to make sure you'd feel comfortable with me.
PIRATE: I'm not going to take your insolence sitting down
SWORDMSTR: You are a pain in the backside, sir!
GUYBRUSH: Your hemorrhoids are flaring up again, eh?
PIRATE: There are no words for how disgusting you are
SWORDMSTR: There are no clever moves that can help you now.
GUYBRUSH: Yes there are. You just never learned them.
PIRATE: I've spoken with apes more polite than you are
SWORDMSTR: Now I now what filth and stupidity really are.
GUYBRUSH: I'm glad to hear you attended your family reunion.
Regards. :)
PS. I'm rubber - you're glue!
