OVE Generation to launch 16 January 2020

From DMM Games and DBROS is OVE Generation, a new side-scrolling tactical battle game which will launch 16 January 2020! Probably no one would ever say there’s not enough cute girls, so here’s more of them in this new mobile game for iOS and Android.

The basic conceit puts you in a world where an apparent war has long since ended, for a long era of peace. However, a new calamity has occured, and the world needs warriors to fight back. Only girls are able to become the titular “OVE”s, and thus are put into service. The gameplay preview is reminiscent of similar games like Princess Connect: ReDive!. The design is certainly futuristic, to reflect its storyline. Art wise, the girls have clothing damage sprites if that interests you more.

Black Shark 5 Series Review – Shark-chan Electric Boogaloo Gaming Too

Following the Black Shark 4 series, undoubtedly there will be a follow up. The Black Shark 5 series is here, with both a regular and Pro version for the discerning mobile gamer. Both come in the 8GB + 128GB configurations, with the Black Shark 5 starting at RM2299. With that out of the way, what’s in store for us this time?

THE LOOKS
The Black Shark 5 series is going to the moon this time round, sporting a futuristic, space-y design. The regular Black Shark 5 and Pro models have different finishes on the back.

Related Posts

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

The regular Black Shark 5 has a more glossy, plastic finish that makes it quite reflective. As for details, it’s got the brand logo and name on the bottom right, with one small RGB light next to the camera module. This light turns on and off depending on your settings and actions.

Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

As for the Pro version, it’s the matte finish, which is definitely what I’d prefer. The logo and brand name have different placements with more decorative lines adding to the Future aesthetic. The RGB light is also different from the regular version, making for an overall subjectively cooler looking model. Feels like it justifies the “Pro” tag, doesn’t it?

The differences extend to the frames, though this time it’s the opposite: the regular Black Shark 5 has a matte frame while the Pro is glossy. The speaker grilles have different sizes when compering the models, though it doesn’t seem to have any particular effect besides “just being”.

Outside of those details, the phones are pretty much identical. Two master triggers and the power button are on the right, volume rocker on the left, SIM card tray and USB Type-C port relegated to the bottom. As someone who prefers having the headphone jack as an option, neither models have the hallowed 3.5mm headphone jack. Size wise, they’re likewise very similar, with both having the same 6.67″ screen size, negligible weight difference (regular at 218g to Pro’s 220g) and thickness (10mm to 9.5mm respectively), it’s not going to weigh down on you when you game on the phones for long stretches of time.
FUNCTIONALITY
DISPLAY
That said, while their screen sizes for both models are the same, the actual performance differs. The Black Shark 5 uses an AMOLED panel to the Pro’s OLED, with the difference maker being the HDR10+ and DCI-P3 certification for the latter. This means you can expect images to be more vibrant on the Pro. For instance, whites look off-white to yellow on the regular model over the Pro, and it’s not related to the available settings you can tweak.
If you’re not too concerned about the colours, both have 144Hz refresh rate support for your regular browsing and gaming comfort. The Magic Press technology remains as a mainstay feature: the one that can ‘sense’ the pressure levels for more fine-tuned control and in-build macros for you to fiddle with. It doesn’t have to be limited to games either as it can work something to gesture shortcuts. Press down then slide it in the direction you’ve bound an action to, and voila, magic (press)!

AUDIO
I honestly can consider the quality relatively subjective, but objectively, both Black Shark 5 and Black Shark 5 Pro have some punchy sound. They’re loud, and surprisingly, can offer sound as though you’re wearing headphones. The directional audio is very accurate, important for those competitive games requiring pinpoint accuracy with sound cues, and of course, good audio means a more immersive overall viewing experience for videos or music.
BATTERY
So, how’s that hyper charging speed mode? As the name suggests, the rate which the phone goes from 0 to 100 is comparatively like a blink of an eye to phones without this functionality, taking under 30 minutes. Do take note that with hyper charging speed mode, the phone feels like it’s overheating as the device tries to get juiced back up in whichever way it’s allowed to.
Both the regular and Black Shark 5 Pro roughly drop 40% watching Youtube channels after about 4 hours 30 minutes or so, which is quite impressive.
CAMERA
As much as it’s easy to simply think of this series of phones as specifically gaming focused, the cameras are actually good. The Pro version comes packing with a 108MP main camera, 13MP 120 degrees wide angle and 5MP macro. Additionally, it has image stabilization, so if you’re hastily whipping out your phone to take a shot before tabbing back to your game, that motion blur can thankfully get reduced.

It also seems to automatically adjust modes to an extent, where photos still look quite bright even if the venue itself is dim. There is some quirk where there’s a purple tint to some photos though, so that might be something to watch out for. The regular Black Shark 5’s main camera is 64MP, while the rest of the array is the same as the Pro.
MASTER TRIGGERS
These triggers return from the Black Shark 4. They already felt good to use before, and somehow, they’ve gotten even better. Again, this shouldn’t be considered a gaming exclusive feature as they can prove handy shortcuts for functions all about the phone. Take the camera for example: take quick snaps just by hitting the trigger for some nice convenience.

Of course, getting it set up for gaming is easy too. Simply slide down the gaming drop-down menu, and map them with the MasterControl setting, and you’re done.
SHARK-CHAN
Shark-chan is another returnee! Unfortunately, her functionally has not expanded much from the Black Shark 4. As with previously, you can interact with her by tapping on her, get her to set up an alarm, and shows off a special charging effect.
SHARK SPACE
More or less the phone’s gaming hub. Here, you’ll see what gacha game crimes you’ve installed, or if it doesn’t show up, you can add them in manually so that you can do the setup for the Magnetic Triggers, Magic Press, and what have you.
The accessories are also paired up through here.
PERFORMANCE
Going by the raw numbers, AnTuTu scores the Black Shark 5 at 721703, while the Pro version is at a whopping 943430. The reason for this difference is simple: the regular version uses the Snapdragon 870 5G while Pro utilizes the newest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.

LEAGUE OF LEGENDS: WILD RIFT
An overall smooth experience with hardly any difference between either models of the Black Shark 5. The framerate peaks at the game’s possible maximum, so no issues here.

APEX LEGENDS MOBILE
The framerate doesn’t dip until you make that initial jump, but that happens pretty much across any device no matter their specs. What’s important is that the game runs smooth as butter when you hit the ground running, with the play experience further improved thanks to the functions you can map to the master trigger. It’s highly recommended you do utilize the triggers too, as they make it so much easier to aim and shoot.

GENSHIN IMPACT
The big daddy of all benchmarks! 60 FPS and max settings is not a problem for either Black Shark 5 models, but oh boy, the regular Black Shark 5 starts cooking the hands.

Special mention really goes to Genshin for heating up the phones. The other games no doubt can start warming the device especially after 3 hours of continuous play, but Genshin straight up make your phone feel like a hot potato.
CLOSING THOUGHTS
Overall, both the Black Shark 5 and its Pro version are really good at doing their job, namely being gaming phones. The regular model is a top contender to be the best gaming phone when you’re on a tighter budget with plenty of functions to suit your needs. Sure, it loses in raw numbers, but its performance cannot be denied.

If you have more cash to spare, the Pro version is of course, hands down the choice. It isn’t just for the better chipset; when it comes down to it, the Pro version has better thermals than the regular model.
tl;dr: The Black Shark 5 series should definitely be on your radar for you mobile gamers out there.

As previously mentioned, Quantum Maki is actually a mish mash of genres, as it incorporates a third person shooting mechanic with some bullet hell thrown into the mix. You assume the role of commander of a squad of Ritters, pilots who maneuver powerful suits known as Quantum Makis. As you unleash a hail of projectiles onto hostile entities, you will also have evade and weave around their own barrage of fire.

But first, some lore. In 2033, a mysterious tower suddenly materialised on earth, and it houses many technological wonders. Humanity took advantage of this and propelled the level of technology by leaps and bounds. Of course, an arms race soon ensued as all factions of humanity began fighting for control of the tower in order to hoard its technology to themselves. Cue the player, who assumes the role of a commander of an elite squad of pilots known only as Ritters. Ritters pilot the titular Quantum Makis, and you are tasked with securing technology from the tower in order to defeat an evil empire. Fairly basic writing, but gameplay is what matters most anyway.
It is also worth noting that in just two days after its launch, Quantum Maki is having its first collaboration event with Code Geass, featuring the likes of Lelouch, C.C, Kallen and Suzaku, alongside their signature Knightmare Frames.
For the latest information, be sure to drop by the official website. Also, be sure to follow their official Twitter account for any updates as well.

RTS in the Palm of Your Hands – Dawn of Titans

Dawn of Titans is a mobile RTS game developed by NaturalMotion. The game was first announced in March 2015 and was just released in December 2016. It took them a year to finish developing the game and we can see why. The game looks amazing with a very detailed landscape and character figures, it is almost unbelievable that it is a mobile game. With a rating of 4.5 Stars on Google Play and App Store, the game should attract fans who loved playing RTS.

If you are familiar with Rome Total War, then it shouldn’t be difficult to understand how to play Dawn of Titans. The game is similar to that however there are other features that makes this game really interesting. Titans, are available for you to recruit to be part of your army. They are bigger and stronger and is the main force of your army. However one should not belittle the militia army as well. The swarming numbers can take down a Titan, so you’ll have to command your troops carefully to protect your Titan while battling enemy troops. Before every start of the battle, you will be in a planning phase where you can command your troops to move towards the enemies or flank them. Just like Rome Total War, you can still control your troop’s movements even during combat.

One of the features of the game is that you own a floating island with your castle on it. You rule and oversee your kingdom which you can zoom in and out with a pinch of your fingers. While taking care of your kingdom, of course you will require resources. You can build farms for food which is required to build troops and gold as well for building and upgrading buildings. You can also capture other resource islands that will provide you with gold and food hourly. However you can only hold up to 3 resource islands.
As your kingdom grows and progress through the main campaign, you will be able to join alliances or create your own. Because the game is in an open world, your kingdom can be attacked by random strangers and they will raid your kingdom, earning them a portion of your resources. By joining in an Alliance, it will help you build some reputation that will hinder others from attacking you at least. However, your Titans can only gain levels by entering into battle. You will need to either do campaigns or raiding to level up your Titan. There are resource islands and neutral enemies that are available for your raiding needs and if you are lucky enough, you may obtain relics or armories that your Titans can equip. Not just that, your player levels can increase as well and as you unlock more buildings and build them, you can unlock spells to be used during battle!
For such a genre on mobile, the game looks really cool with all the features and it is definitely one of the most beautiful graphics that we’ve seen. The gameplay is smooth with detailed graphics and the war mechanics are easy to understand and handle. This will definitely be one of the games that I will recommend to those who love RTS games such as this.

Another page in the Alicization arc – Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris review

Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris launched 10 July 2020 for PS4, Xbox One and PC via Steam after an initial delay due to issues arising from COVID-19. As the name suggests, the game follows the Alicization arc storyline, taking players to the “Underworld”, a virtual world populated by AI essentially indistinguishable from regular people, with rules of their own. In the franchise’s latest RPG, Kirito begins his adventure anew, with new/old friends and enemies alike.

PARTYING UP
There’s a staggering number of playable characters that you can add to your roster, including:

Kirito himself (of course)
Eugeo
Alice
Asuna
Renly Synthesis Twenty-Seven
Sheyta Synthesis Twelve
Sortiliena Serlut
Sinon
Leafa
Lisbeth
Silica
Medina, as the game’s original character

… as the revealed roster, with more still over the course of the story. After the first chapter, you’d be able to customize Kirito, changing his name, gender, hairstyle, eye colour and such forth even if you’re still ostensibly playing Kirito. At least for a bit, you could imagine being someone else being in the starring role.

The game is divided into several chapters, each having a visual novel style of recounting the story so far, broken up by the action and combat sequences. The visual novel parts tend to drag out, disrupting the action RPG that many people arguably would have picked up the Alicization Lycoris for. It also retreads a lot of the anime’s story which fans are probably well acquainted with, so a lot of it can be skipped just so that you can get to the parts where Medina is featured, since she’s the original character for the game.

GAMING THE SYSTEM
In the chapters, players will control Kirito and his party members to take on quests together. The main story is quite lengthy, and you could opt to just follow the questline, fight the bosses along the way and complete the game. Otherwise, you can stray off the beaten track to explore the Underworld realized in this game engine, discovering new sights, coming across side quests, treasure and other challenges.

As much as they’re called “side content”, it becomes practically mandatory at some point as you come up tougher enemies, so the way to get stronger is to seek out everything else. Grinding out the quests does give the feeling of playing an MMO, which, depending on how you feel about frankly mindless quests, can be maybe good or bad thing. You can break up the monotony with other systems like fishing, cooking and plant gathering, reminding oneself of open world-esque gameplay when you’re tired of slapping around the same ol’ monsters.

Kirito and friends will be able to utilize moves known as Sword Skills, able to have four of them at a time according to the branches of the skills or weapons they use during combat. The skills in turn have their own SP values, and you can chain them seamlessly during battle. This plays into the chaining system, where successive skills can deal higher damage to the enemy. On top of this is the Sacred Arts system, where you can unleash Arts with varying effects, from HP restoration to different elemental attacks in a Chain Burst. Needless to say, using the right Arts at the right time can make or break a fight.

Besides going gung-ho and attacking, blocking is also possible. This goes the same for your enemies, which can have their guards broken. Special skills can make breaking guard easier against your foes to land devastating Arts on them. To make things easier, EX skill attributes can be gradually unlocked on characters to vary up their behaviours when controlled by the AI. Set them up as you like, be it more aggressive, offense-oriented AI or more defensive stances. The current maximum level is 50, which may not leave as many points as you’d like to distribute.
THE PIXELS OF THE UNDERWORLD
The game visually has improved when compared to the previous title, but not by leaps and bounds. The controls are at least smooth so that the chaining of skills feels satisfactory with accompanying flashy effects. It doesn’t have the “weight” behind them, but is generally passable.

Whatever it is, the game just feels really slow. If a character gets knocked into the air, they fall as though through jelly and switching between characters doesn’t match with the rapid action you would want. Maybe the slower pace would be much more comfortable for Sword Art Online fans used to it from the previous titles, but if you’re playing it looking for a new RPG experience, it’s unsatisfactory.
KNIGHTS’ JUDGMENT
The game is bogged down with optimization problems that will take some time to patch, and compared to the previous titles of the franchise, the polish is quite lacking, perhaps partially to blame on the pandemic disrupting work. There is a lot of content that players can enjoy in the game even if it is padded out due to lengthy visual novel sections, and on the PS4 Pro, a lot of time is spent merely loading in.

For players who are not already existing fans of the franchise, the heavy loading of plot does not get the best pacing. While the character customization is welcome, it does not have any effect on the cutscenes, so if you were hoping for a degree of immersion, you will not find it here. When you do get to fight, that’s where the game really shines, so savour them when they do arrive. There is also multiplayer, but it’ll be quite a while before you actually get it unlocked, which seems fair to get you to know the story, while also being a slog.

Pros
Cons

Multiplayer is fun
Optimization issues

Fully voiced story
Graphics have not improved by much

Sacred Arts are great to use
Saving the game is troublesome at best

Exploration highly encouraged with side quests etc to do

FINAL SCORE
6 / 10

Other Premium Cosmetics
As of time of writing, the Razor Arcana, Crystal Maiden & Phantom Assassin persona as well as the Primal Beast Prestige item are still currently unavailable and will be coming out in due time but there is no exact date as to when each of the cosmetics will appear, so all we can do now is patiently wait for them.

China Decries The Term Waifu , BL And More In Seminar

The Chinese China Music and Digital Association published a speech with opinions about content in the country, taking offense at things like Boys Love, the term Waifu and the increasing influence of anime in the country.

UPDATE 30/9: It looks like the speech itself has been proven to be fake, from someone’s class assignment that wound up online without context. However many of the opinions here, as you can see, are very much in line with things the Chinese government has already said that we had previously reported on.

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

UPDATE 30/9, 12.30: Josh Ye from the South China Morning Press has disproven the previous claim, and verified the authenticity of our source.
The whole 12-page document says the purpose of the presentation was “to improve professional quality and business ability”, covering problems that they deem to be threatening to youth in the country.
Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

It recommends “various new management regulations” to combat these, with the top of them being addiction to games among minors, something China is already dealing with via new laws.
Instead the real meat of this document is their views on content in entertainment like games and TV programmes. The body takes aim at anime culture in particular, trying to distance itself and control the values in these works. Do be noted that since Anime-News.net only had the excerpts in image form, a lot of these were translated via Google Translate, and clarified only where we were 100% sure we could do so without losing the spirit of the quotes.
No Wife, Only Video Game Character
It seems like a huge part of the offense taken by China seems to be that anime has taken a strong foothold in the country. It decries a “Large market share” held by Japanese products such as with Onmyoji, Naruto and One Piece, all of which are popular in China.
While not attacking it as aggressively as it does effeminate or gay men, it shows off some aggression for waifu culture, using Azur Lane as an example.
They explicitly name drop the character Kaga from Azur Lane, expressing disdain that people would call the ship-girl their “wife”. (The term waifu has no contemporaries in other languages).
Despite being Chinese in origin, many of the most successful Chinese games tend to borrow anime aesthetics, at times even having collabs with anime characters
It should be noted that Kaga being the mentioned character is an interesting choice, seeing as how she’s voiced by Ai Kayano, who the Chinese government has no love for following her faux pas. That being said, Kaga was removed from Azur Lane officially due to concerns about the character being too sexy.
There’s also mention of “Anti-social and anti-human” behaviors, citing games as eroding people’s compassion. Funnily enough this part about interpersonal communications was where they didn’t bring up waifu culture, instead talking about games like Plague Inc, where humans are just a numerical value you wanna kill.
However, despite their example discussing a lack of empathy in gaming, they didn’t argue for more pro-empathy games. Their second argument was for This War of Mine, which actually presents complex arguments in games and says that you shouldn’t talk about those in video games.
“Moral dilemmas are not suitable for letting players make choices through games.”, the speech reads.
Gender And Sexuality
BL (Or Boys Love, for the uninitiated) was seen to be a problem in China, known for their homophobic views. They took aim at Danmei- published works promoting the content, decrying it as a bad thing.
“Deliberate propaganda and descriptions wrongly guide male and male [couples], male and male economics (such as official website promotion, screenshots, comics, etc., males and males in mounts can ride together, and male and male kisses appear in the fifth fairy sword)”, the statement reads.
Doubling down on the “This is not our culture” narrative, they took aim at Onmyoji in particular, which they claimed pandered to Fujoshi (lit. Rotten women, women who enjoy BL).

They also reiterated a point about feminization in men- something they’d brought up before and was rumored to be the reason behind drastic new regulations involving Fate/Grand Order.
“Neutralization, beautiful men in women’s clothing, pseudo-girls Judgment criteria: subjective feelings, causing confusion about gender perception (see the introduction to find that it is male)”, the slide reads.
While having characters who identify as men but dress as women is a common trope in anime, it should be noted that China’s main example was rather hilarious, being Venti from Genshin Impact. Considering their traditionalist views the only thing “female” about Venti is his braids, with everything else more closely resembling a young boy than any kind of woman.
(Souce: Anime-News.Net)
Tipping Your Hand (Editorial)
So first thing’s first, this is obviously a terrible take. It’s sexist, homophobic and completely unnecessary. But unfortunately what we’re seeing is the Chinese government trying to reclaim control of their image- one that doesn’t own dakimakura of anthropomorphized battleships.
There’s some genuinely good critique of anime culture in the document as well, such as how Japan uses anime as a way to rewrite history, softening their image during World War II thanks to anime fans not having the critical thinking to separate fact from sword-wielding fiction.
But its overall tone is laughably out of date, as was their tone with the minor ban and the new regulations which saw the banning of Ultraman Tiga, of all things.
This isn’t the first time members of China’s Communist Party have done this- just a few months ago they attended a gaming event decried the entire medium as “Spiritual opium”, right before launching its bombshell regulation.
Considering how many anime-style gacha games have their roots in China (Punishing Gray Raven, Genshin Impact, Azur Lane), the effects of these could be huge if followed through.
It should be noted that this was just a speech, and not the passing of any new kind of law. But considering the party’s hold on the country, don’t be surprised if more laws do come out soon to better support their opinions.
Addendum: It looks like China will be using these as guidelines for their regulatory board, as mentioned in the SCMP article posted above.

Deemo 2 announced

Deemo 2 has been announced, which one could assume to be a direct sequel to the original Deemo. There is also Deemo Reborn, with Playstation 4 / Playstation VR as its platform. The original Deemo was first released on mobile platforms, so 2 is likely to make its way there at some point.

Right now, Rayark Games have only released a teaser trailer which you can see above. From its imagery, “rain” and “flowers” seem to be the focus for the game. Deemo the first featured a girl named Alice, who fell down a hole. A mysterious creature with the titular name Deemo helps her to return to her own world, playing the piano and growing a tree sprouting from the piano.

The teaser gives us a glimpse at another child, seemingly running towards a massive monster, perhaps breaking out of the building they are running to. Trains presumably also play some kind of role, some journey of sorts. You can enjoy the piano music featured in the trailer as well, the returning style of the game.
We can speculate all we want about the game, but for now, there’s no platform announced, much less a release date. You can check out its website here.

Ko-Do-Ne-Mu Million Arthur announced at Perfect World Conference

A new Million Arthur title has been announced at the Perfect World Games Conference known as Ko-Do-Ne-Mu Million Arthur! You can check out the teaser trailer grabbed straight from weibo below:

It looks to employ quite elaborate animations and could almost pass off as a new MMO using the IP – something that has happened before in Han-Gyaku-Sei Million Arthur – but the description, and indeed the art shown towards the end of the teaser, indicates that it will be a card game. The production quality implies this is the IP’s way of keeping up with something like Yu-Gi-Oh! or even Shadowverse‘s console outing, Champions Battle.

MX vs ATV Legends Review – Country Road, Take Me Home, to the Dirt where I Belong

Related Posts

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

MX vs ATV Legends from THQ Nordic and Rainbow Studios launched 28 June 2022, wherein you become a world-famous professional rider and take your career all over the new open world environments. It’s not my kind of game for sure, so this review is from a newbie’s perspective.

RIP ROARING
As immersive as it is to be dropped into the game at once, I unfortunately do not enjoy this aspect. In any case, it’s a “free ride” mode through checkpoints which serve as tutorials for the game at the first start up. Once done, you’ll finally be able to access the menu (which is the start / option button for the ol’ Dualsense).

The tutorial is actually quite comprehensive and easy to understand since motocross is understandably quite different from “typical” car / motorcycle racing games. God knows how I managed Riders Republic. The “free ride” is the “menu” in a sense since you’re allowed to ride around here to find events, collectibles or NPCs.

Tweet to @GamerBraves

Oddly enough, this doesn’t extend to accessing other modes such as for the career track, racing or customizing, as these need to be found through the actual menu. There was potential to have it completely seamless by visiting a garage or somesuch, but no big shake I suppose.
GRAPHICS / PERFORMANCE / SOUND
The game’s overall assets look great with nice environments that have their accompanying physics. The tracks and events stand out with their individual designs, and both indoor and outdoor areas have good lighting. However, this quality doesn’t seem to extend to the character models, so much so that their rendering seems to take a longer time for whatever reason, making them look blurry.

Besides that, there were a number of other visual bugs. One of them was some black checkerboard effect that crops up often when on the track. For another, hitting the reset after falling off seems to glitch the character model so the bike is just hurtling along without a rider.
Sound wise, the sound effects – from the purring engines to the audience cheers – are solid. I’d recommend lowering the soundtrack volume as it can drown the sound of the bike.
GEARING UP
CAREER
Career Mode is one of the main features of the game with three separate parts: MX, ATV and UTV races. For ATV and UTV races, you will sometimes be required to progress in MX mode. This is simple enough: be that pro rider, win your races and attract as many fans as possible.

Completing certain races will get you rewards including motorbikes, spare parts, new tracks or even imitations to select events with attractive prizes. Repeating races is an option for you to improve your prior placing or good ol’ currency grind.
As no-frills as it is in Career Mode, the lack of anything apart from racing and getting the prizes / better numbers just isn’t enticing for a newbie without prior interest in motocross. There’s nothing particularly “unique” about the premise except that I’m new to it.
EXHIBITION
This mode is divided into Quickplay and Time Trial. Quickplay is further subdivided into events including Supercross, National, Rhythm, Trails, Invitational, or Freeride. Perhaps someone more familiar can tell the differences between them but as it stands, it doesn’t seem to have that much, well, differences: Supercross looks to have more jumps and ramps in indoor tracks, while National and Invitational have the dirt outdoors.

CUSTOMIZATION
This is made of three parts: Parts, Tuning, and Locker.
Parts is where you fiddle with the  suspension, brakes, tires, wheels, handlebars, seats, grips, exhaust, and sprockets. These are cosmetic only.
Tuning is where you improve your ride’s performance, where you can tweak the engine, clutch, chassis, suspension, traction, and brakes. You can tune to tweak various stats such as Power, Traction, Suspension, Handling, Brakes, and also Stunts. Some of these may require trade-offs in other aspects, e.g. increasing power at the cost of handling or suspension. Even as a newbie, learning how to tune is important as default settings can make things harder for yourself since you won’t be able to get the performance you’d prefer.

Lockers is basically the character customization to style up your clothes, gender, name, stage number if you want. It’s limited that you can only change according to what is offered to you as there’s no way to really change colours or body. Alas.
HITTING THE ROAD
This is where I really feel like the complete newbie. Racing games never really have been “accelerate and pray”, but navigating the movement, mechanics and physics of MX vs ATV Legends is an added layer of difficulty. There’s needing to tilt your body for the turns, the suspension, and the handling which almost seems inconsistently heavy or light.
The UTV feels even stranger. It feels like driving a car, with the handling of a motorbike. Bumps and crashes were to be expected and still it feels incredibly slippery to navigate even moving slowly following a straight line. Suffice to say, it will take a while before someone like me would be able to rise to the challenge.

The ATV is the most “beginner friendly” option since it’s more similar to a car and allows for the simple “accelerate and / or brake” method of control.
Now, it’s just the Reset Button that needs to be more responsive. It’s nice to have a backtrack should you fall off or go the wrong way, but it doesn’t seem to respond consistently. When every second matters in a racing game, it’s very inconvenient at best.
MULTIPLAYER
You can play multiplayer both online and offline. Online is as easy as going to the “Race Online” mode and jumping into a Quick Match. Alternatively, you could organize a Squad Compound to invite up to 16 people for a Quick Match or freeride session.

As for offline, up to 2 players can go Split Screen. Both of you will need gamepads, as one gamepad and keyboard + mouse doesn’t seem to work. The modes themselves are the same as online multiplayer, offering various event races or freerides.
END OF THE ROAD
As a whole, MX vs ATV Legends leaves quite a good impression on a motocross newbie. Freeride is quite nice to trundle along in in place of a regular menu, but the immersion isn’t taken the whole way as there are a number of activities requiring use of said menu rather than some “open world-like” navigation.
The game could also stand to improve in quality of life or even settings options. I can understand simplifying certain aspects to attract newbies, but if there isn’t really the “option” to opt out, anyone interested to challenge themselves further might find it lacking. It’s going to be a fine line to walk when even the lowest difficulty level can prove too much, but one supposes it be like that sometimes.

Hello Neighbor Is Creeping Up To iOS and Android In July!

Hello Neighbor is a game that was launched for consoles like Xbox One and PC (Steam) in December 2017 by tinyBuild. The game had a hit amongst players as it was a different kind of game and hilarious to play, with references to our weird neighbors in reality (gosh I hope not!). Now with tinyBuild’s latest revelation of the game coming to the PS4 and Nintendo Switch, they have also announced a mobile port that supports both iOS and Android!

While the sound of mobile port may differ depending on player preferences, the game seems to look really good on mobile as seen above. With controls fit and customed for mobile, tinyBuild is bringing the thriller neighbor game onto mobiles everywhere. Though the interface may be too huge and taking quite some space of the screen, hopefully it can be adjusted in the settings or maybe a controller support.

Currently there’s a limited beta where you can sign up to play it earlier. While the game is set to be released on the 27th July and free to download, only the first portion of the game is free to play. The remaining two portions of the game will need to be paid to unlock.

Seikimatsu Days: Our Era’s End Is Now Launched In Stores!

Seikimatsu Days: Our Era’s End (世紀末デイズ) by DeNA x Spike Chunsoft is finally in stores! The game however, is only available in Japan’s App Store or Play Store and there’s no news if there will be an English version of the game. Since it was first announced back in April 2018, the title was popular due to its unique feature – randomly generated dungeons.

As you might already know, Spike Chunsoft is the company that is responsible for making rogue-like games like Mystery Dungeon, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon and more. These are the games famous for their randomly generated dungeons feature that offers that replayability. You will never encounter or roam around the same dungeon layout!

Following their traditional turn-based battle system, the game requires you to take each step carefully as each time you make a move, the enemy moves as well. If you’ve played any of the Mystery Dungeon series like my favorite, Chocobo Dungeon, you’d know the mechanics already. Though, where your character is facing is also important as your character attacks wherever they are facing. They have also included Hunger Points, which makes the game challenging as you’ll need to defeat the Boss of the stage before your Hunger Points reaches 0.
Since it’s a mobile game, there is an Auto function, where your characters will move automatically, making the most optimal moves. There are a number of characters in the game from Scouts, Healers, Fighters, Defenders, Undead, Shooters, and Mage. But to get some of the characters, you will have to pull for them. Yes, the game like any other mobile games, adopts a gacha system. So pull only if you’re feeling lucky.

So if you have pre-registered earlier this month, you will be able to receive the rewards which comes with 2x 5* characters and also just enough Yukichis (in-game premium currency) to pull 10 times. If you love the Mystery Dungeon series, then this might be your cup of tea. However, the game is only available in Japan, so you’ll probably need to use other alternatives to play the game.
For more info, you can check out their official site too!

Heaven Burns Red First Impressions – I Want To Eat Crab

Heaven Burns Red is the latest mobile title from the partnership of KEY and WFS, an RPG and visual novel in one, and has since launched in Japan. Strangely enough, the game’s English website appears to have been quietly closed or put on ice, and certainly, the game doesn’t have any apparent signs of a global release at this juncture. One can only hope that day will come sooner rather than later.

Related Posts

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

GamerBraves Newsletter Vol. 103 – The Glory of The Barbie/Oppenheimer Double Feature

With that out of the way, what’s the game like?
PRESENTATION
To put it simply, Heaven Burns Red looks gorgeous. The 2D spritework have their blinking and mouth flap animations, nothing too groundbreaking in this aspect. You get the cut-ins and shaking effects where needed for the effect. On their own, I’m sure this sounds super ordinary – pleasing art is dime a dozen, you might say. Then, you hear the fully voiced dialogue. You know that 4.7GB batch download for voices? It’s absolutely worth every byte of storage space: their voice actors really come out with incredible performances that you don’t have to understand the language for, and I’m sure part of the credit must go to the direction, too. The dynamic among the cast is quickly established, enticing you to know more.
Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

In my layman opinion, I think the 3D model animations in battle is where it feels just a little off. They’re smooth and the quality is great, but there’s this ‘slowness’ that fumbles the pace somewhat. Besides that, though, the layout of the UI is highly stylish, though perhaps there is room to improve in terms of visibility.

There’s an “overworld” where you’ll be able to run around and visit destinations on the map. Characters you’ve met, or have yet to meet, can be found milling around, and you can get the option to speak with them for some more story and rapport.

One thing’s for sure, you absolutely must play this game with the sound on.
GAMEPLAY
There’s essentially the two distinct halves to this game: the visual novel, and the RPG.
The visual novel sections are not something I can fully comment on since I feel the language barrier will partially affect my opinion, since I can’t tell how much it affects the story’s flow. Our protagonist, Ruka, will pause at times, and dialogue prompts will appear. For the most part, what you see in the text will be what she says. There are two flavours to these choices: the regular multiple choice ones which are unvoiced, and this diagram one where you can choose the first and second half that you can hear before you confirm your choices.

This second one is honestly quite novel (haha). Don’t feel like the given options quite capture how you want to answer? Mix and match from these selections! I’d love to see a similar system be included in future visual novels. The variables sound like fun to play around especially considering dating sim / multi-route games, and perhaps offer some level of flexibility in player agency.
The story progresses in “days”, with certain events taking place at set times too. The visual novel DNA is all over the place, so not knowing the language is definitely a disadvantage. Does progressing days lock me from chatting with some characters at certain times, if I haven’t already done so? Well, I wouldn’t be surprised.

When it comes to battles, it’s not particularly complicated. It’s a turn-based system, with you able to bring in 6 characters at once and each with their broad role. You and the enemies have two bars: one “break” bar, and your HP. You’ll need to deplete the break bar first before HP damage can be done. Each turn, you’ll recover skill points before you can use your skills. You can swap in your backline at any point, and they’ll be able to take their turn at once. Eventually, you can enter an Overdrive mode to go boom.
There is auto battle, with options for “regular” and “full” auto modes. You won’t be allowed to turn it on for the story battles until you’ve at least progressed to day 6, though.
Character development includes their base levels, skill levels, “booster”, and an array of accessories. Limit breaking is also a thing, requiring shards obtained from duplicates. As far as I can tell, duplicates give at least 10 shards each, and uh, it’s probably gonna take a while purely from gacha.
GACHA
Going by the closed beta, the SS (highest rarity) rate has been increased by 1%, that is, from 2% to 3%. This brings it in line with most gacha game rates. It’s 3000 currency for a 10-pull, which feels a little steep as I can’t visibly tell how much I get from doing day to day stories. The typical “nodes” and “missions” stuff you tend to see isn’t here.
New characters have a short introductory scene, as well.

IN CLOSING

Please, this really deserves a localization for international audiences to fully enjoy the story. I honestly think the RPG battle part is the weaker part of the game, but I can’t say for sure what exactly they need to improve.
If you’re a fan of Jun Maeda’s previous works, I should think this is one you can’t miss.

The God of Highschool Global goes live

It all began as a fighting tournament to seek out for the best fighter among all high school students in Korea. Mori Jin, a Taekwondo specialist and a high school student, soon learns that there is something much greater beneath the stage of the tournament.
The main campaign aside, the game boasts PvP modes where users fight one another representing their own team. To celebrate global launch, all users will be rewarded with 100 Premium Summon Tickets as well as an Ancient God Summon Ticket. Other goodies include gold, tickets and other cash items. Furthermore, players will be able to benefit from special buffs that increase the experience gained. For more details, be sure to drop by the official Facebook page.

[Penang Esports Festival 2019] Interviewing the champion Khan of the Tekken 7 Dojo!

Imran Khan, who goes by the screenname “Khan”, made a clean sweep of the Tekken 7 Dojo finals match in Penang Esports Festival 2019. The Pakistani made his way through the bracket and took down the Malaysian hopeful Zaba 3-0.

Khan has been in Malaysia for 15 days now, having stopped by KL before Penang. The Pakistani from Lahore is quite close with his family, and is already missing them. He’ll be able to share the good news of his championship with them! He’s earned the feeling of being proud to represent both his country and its Tekken community with the win.

Despite his 3-0 win, Khan says Zaba is quite a strong player. We saw the Malaysian almost get a comeback a few times, and the winner himself acknowledges the skill there. He says Zaba will be able to improve further via the community, saying it’s similar in Pakistan. He’s been competing against other Malaysians over the 2-day Penang Esports Festivals too. Khan feels the Malaysian esports scene has a lot of support, not just for the local players, but also for all the competitors.

Khan’s also Arslan Ash’s best friend since childhood, and he’s only got good things to say about his friend. “He’s very hardworking and believes in himself,” Khan says, adding they train daily for up to 10 to 11 hours. Tekken has been in Khan’s life since he was 12, with him running out of classes to go to arcades to play. His father had been angry at him, but his son is now representing Pakistan in Tekken. He also gets his mother to play with him before he leaves for a match. They’re now supportive of him playing Tekken, Khan tells us, when before they didn’t even know he played.
His strategy to winning is to believe in luck and a lot of practice. It seems to apply to his favourite “worst” character, Akuma, saying playing against Akuma requires being careful, and it can make one stronger. “Just work hard and don’t be jealous of anyone,” he advises those intending to go pro. “Your time will come, just focus it all on the game.”
If more events get organized in Malaysia, Khan says he would be willing to come, once again mentioning the great support from the fans. Let’s see if we can get him to come again some time! Congratulations once more to Khan.
