Monopoly Madness Review – Capitalist Chaos

When I first heard about Ubisoft’s Monopoly Madness, my first thought was why? Why would you want to buy a Monopoly video game, when you can just play Monopoly. I think I’ve got like two monopoly boards lying around the house that wouldn’t require the use of a PS4.

Monopoly Madness however is not just Monopoly on a screen but rather a Monopoly party game that adapts the board game to a digital medium better than I initially thought. It plays nothing like the board game, you don’t roll a dice, you can move around as you please and overall, it is overall a very different experience.

The Art of Buying Things
Monopoly Madness’ gameplay at its core, is quite similar to its’ board game big brother. You collect money, electricity, and water and use those to win auctions and upgrade properties. Money buys you new properties and water and electricity helo you upgrade it. The more properties you have, the higher chances you have of winning. You can also get a number of power-ups along the way to annoy the other players.
The main actions in the game are sucking up money and resources into your never-ending money bag and blowing it back out. If you are standing next to an unbought property or an opponent’s property, you start the bidding process, spending your money on that property. The more money you blow into that property, the more likely you’ll be the owner of it.

If it’s your own property, you spend Electricity and Water to upgrade the property. If your property is in the bidding process, better put more money into it if you don’t want someone else to take it.
It’s a very simple gameplay loop that even a young child could get the hang of in a matter of minutes. One of the drawbacks to the traditional monopoly game was that there were a lot of rules to remember and the game can take a while to set up and get going. Your average monopoly game would always take around one and a half hours.
This is a more bite-sized version that compresses the core idea to a less complex but more streamlined version, perhaps better suited for our poor attention-deficit gamer brains. In all seriousness, it fits video games as a medium a bit better, bringing the board game to bit-sized hectic chunks that can easily be picked up and played.
Moving in Society

Your character moves on a simple grid, up-down, left-right, diagonally. It can get a little hard to keep track of your character when there are multiple players spread out on screen as the game zooms out on the map to keep everyone on screen. Along the way, there will be random events happening, like heavy rain, causing the road to be slippery or airplanes just flying over non-stop to block your vision.
If you are not in the vicinity of any property you can blow onto an enemy to stun them for a short while. This is pretty useful when you are fighting for the same resources. Just walk up to the guy and blow him, he’ll be stunned and you can take the money.
There are a small number of one-time power-ups you can use, kind of like the one that you get in Mario Kart. Most of the power-ups are fairly useful, like the coffee power-up that causes your opponent to sprint off in a random direction or the bulldozer power-up that allows you to knock down anything in your path, including other people’s upgraded property.
The Auction

You can’t just go around buying properties whenever you want, however. There’s a countdown before the bidding process is initiated, and when the countdown is done, you have a short time to bid on the properties you want. Anybody can bid on the same building, and of course, the highest bidder wins, and get to keep that building.
The prices of different properties are varied, as there are different tiers of properties in the game as well. Properties will cost more depending on the number of stars they have. I would advise bidding once and only if other people start bidding do you spend even more on it. That way you can save money.
Some properties have ‘set’ effects, where if you acquire all the properties in the set, you have extra bonuses. You can recognize these by the jigsaw puzzle that appears to represent their special status. However, the game doesn’t explain what bonuses you actually get, so it helps…somehow.
I feel like the idea of sets could be expanded upon in terms of giving you new skills to use but there’s nothing really wrong with them, the way they are either.
Monopoly Madness, Modes and Maps

There are 3 different game modes in Monopoly Madness, Story mode, Free-For-All, and Teams. Story mode is local play only but the other two are available to play online.
Story mode allows for four-person local multiplayer, and there are various win conditions for different maps. For some, the condition is getting the most Property Medals wins, while in others the person who acquires all six properties is the winner.
For Free-For-All and Teams, there’s only one condition, which is to be the player who has the most Property Medals at the end of 10 minutes. And after that, there are bonus medals according to different conditions like Most Bidding Lost or whatever similar to Mario Party.
You can customize some aspects of the multiplayer, like match length and Power-up spawn rate, or event timer.
The game’s customization is on the lower end. You can only really choose how fast the game will be, but the map variety is really high. There are 4 major areas that you can choose from, and inside each area, there are five maps for multiplayer mode and seven for Story mode. And different maps have different sizes as well. Some are big and some are small.
Visual Style

Monopoly Madness has a very vibrant modern cartoon aesthetic. It makes it clear that this is a game targeted at families, where children can join in the fun of rampaging in the street and tearing down your parent’s in-game houses. I also like that some of the playable characters are updated versions of the traditional monopoly tokens like the top hat and the Scottish terrier.
It carries a happy vibe and makes the game more relaxing (except when it destroys your friendships and ruins your family).
At The Monopoly of Madness

Monopoly Madness is honestly far more fun than I expected it to be. The four-player capitalist chaos of buying up properties makes it feel almost like a competitive Overcook game with different characters rushing around trying to buy up the whole town.
It is very much a sit-down with friends for a couple of rounds kind of game. It’s also really easy to play, so even if your friends rarely touch video games, they can get into it pretty quickly and have fun together.
The customization of the game is a little too plain. There’s just not much that we can do other than choose how fast the game can end. I wish they had implemented the mechanics from Story mode into the multiplayer modes, like being able to choose different objectives.
Overall, it’s a solid party game, well worth your time if you ever get bored with the board game and need something a bit more fast-paced.

EA might be bringing Apex Legends to mobile!

Apex Legends, the free-to-play Battle Royale game that blew up overnight will be getting its own mobile version soon.

When EA released its quarterly earnings yesterday, it was no surprise Apex Legends was at the top. However, what caught our attention is that EA mentioned that it will be bringing Apex Legends to China and to mobile.

PUBG Mobile & Fortnite Battle Royale
Just like the other two popular Battle Royale titles, EA is bringing Apex Legends to mobile as a way to keep game’s momentum going. So far, that’s all the information that we can get as there aren’t any release date nor specifics but is safe to say both iOS and Android will be on it.

Personally, I’m not sure whether everything from the game will make it to the mobile because you know it’s mobile. Maybe the game will be striped down to simple mechanics to bring out the full experiences of the game on mobile.

The Grand Finals is scheduled for October 2018, and will see the champion take home at least $25,000 USD! Mobile Legends will also organize a special MPL event, where a portion from purchases of exclusive MPL in-game items will contribute to the overall prize pool.
Teams who make it to the top can make a name for themselves as Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Facebook will broadcast selected matches of the online qualifiers, all matches throughout the Regular Season, culminating in an on-ground Grand Finals event.

There will be a maximum of 523 teams per qualifier, where only six teams will enter the Regular Season. There will be no prizes during this stage.
The schedule of the qualifiers are as follows:

Malaysia Qualifier 1 (22nd – 24th June): The Top 2 teams will proceed to the Regular Season
Malaysia Qualifier 2 (29th June – 1st July): The Top 2 teams will proceed to the Regular Season
Singapore Qualifier (7th – 8th July): The Champion will proceed to the Regular Season

The 3rd placing teams from Malaysia Qualifier 1 and 2 will play against each other. The winner will proceed to the Regular Season. Matches for the final 16 teams of each qualifier will be a best of 3, while all other rounds are best of 1.
The top four teams from MPL/SG Season 1 who will proceed to the Regular Season are:

Bigetron E-sports (formerly IDNS SG)
Flash Tyrants
AirAsia Saiyan
Mystic Burden

MysteriousAssassin (4th place) had undergone a major roster shuffle, allowing Mystic Burden (5th place) to take their slot. The Regular Season format has also been updated where the 10 teams will play each other in a round robin format with best of 3 matches.
Teams who win 2-0 in a best of three will win $600 USD, while a 2:1 result will see the money split to $400 USD:$200 USD between the two teams. Players and fans stand a chance to win a share of the prize money too throughout the Regular Season.

Maintenance and downtime plagues SINoALICE

While Square Enix’s latest smartphone game SINoALICE is technically out, players have found difficulty actually trying out the game for themselves.

Reminiscent to that of Fate/Grand Order’s launch in Japan last year, players have been greeted by an abundance of time outs and the all too familiar maintenance screen. Despite a series of timetables as to when players will be able to log in, intermittent issues have essentially rendered the SINoALICE essentially unplayable.

We can only guess the reason why the servers have been unable to sustain the influx of players, although the smart money would be on the fact that the game is offering players a 10 roll ticket right at the very beginning, not to mention the fact that it is riding on the popularity that was NieR:Automata.
At time of writing this post, the game has gone back into maintenance.

Black Shark has announced the Malaysia price for the Black Shark 5 series gaming phones, which consist of the 5 and 5 Pro models.

The Black Shark 5 Series phones will be available in Malaysia from the 8th of June, via official channels such as the brand’s Lazada, Shopee and TikTok stores with a starting price of RM3699 for the Black Shark 5 Pro, as well as RM2299 for the Black Shark 5.

Each model comes with two distinct colors, all based around space and themed around exploring the final frontier.
The Return Of A Fan Favorite
The newest entries in the gaming smartphone brand feature improvements to its iconic features, such as the magnetic triggers which allow you to play more control-intensive games such as shooters like Garena Free Fire or PUBG Mobile without filling the screen with your fingers.

They’ve also mentioned that these triggers have out-of-game usage as well, such as as a makeshift shutter for when you’re taking photos with the phone’s main camera.
It also features a 144Hz display, with a 720Hz sampling rate to allow for more responsive controls and snappy visuals as you play your favorite mobile games for fun or for glory.
That being said, representatives from Black Shark did clarify several features with the phone, such as the lack of a built-in SSD, which they said was due to problems with the Google CTS Certification, as well as the lack of native app-recording, where it uses your microphone instead.
You can see the main features of the Black Shark 5 Series phones here:

“Today is a special day, as we welcome some of the most accomplished studios in the games industry to Xbox. We are thrilled to announce Microsoft has entered into an agreement to acquire ZeniMax Media, parent company of Bethesda Softworks.” Phil Spencer, head of Xbox, writes.
With this acquisition, Microsoft announced that all Bethesda’s current-gen titles would be coming to Xbox Game Pass when the Series X launches in November. These titles would include games like DOOM and The Evil Within, which were published by Bethesda.

Here’s the list of studios now under Microsoft under this deal:

Bethesda Softworks,
Bethesda Game Studios
id Software
ZeniMax Online Studios
Arkane
MachineGames
Tango Gameworks
Alpha Dog
Roundhouse Studio

A Storied Past Together
According to Senior Vice President of Global Marketing and Communications Pete Hines, part of this decision was because of Bethesda’s storied history with Microsoft.
“…We have a long history of working with Microsoft. Our companies share many of the same basic principles. We believe in a culture that values passion, quality, collaboration, and innovation. When I think back to the first time we decided to shift from being a PC-only developer and make Morrowind for the original Xbox, it was a move that countless people said would never work…nobody on consoles wanted a game that big and complex. But Microsoft believed in us and so did you. And now RPGs of all shapes and sizes are hugely successful on consoles”, he writes.
No word has been given if future Bethesda titles would now be Xbox exclusive, such as the upcoming Starfield and Elder Scrolls VI.
This news comes just before pre-orders for the Xbox Series X and Series S open in the US.

FFXIV To Fix Error 2002 , Give Free Game Time Following Endwalker Server Issues

Final Fantasy XIV Producer Naoki Yoshida has issued a statement following the release of the Endwalker expansion for Final Fantasy XIV Online ( FFXIV ), which saw players stuck in queues for hours trying to get in to the game as well as getting kicked out due to an Error 2002.

In a statement, Yoshida said that players would get an additional 14 days of free play time, following up from the previously credited 7 free days to apologize for the server issues.

“We are aware that the long waiting times to log into the game are preventing players from playing, and for this, we sincerely apologize”, Yoshida says. “In response to this, we recently granted 7 days of game time, but now we will also be granting an additional 14 days”
The FFXIV Producer also announced that they’d solved the issue with Error 2002, which saw players being booted from the queue randomly while waiting. According to Yoshida, the fix would be applied in next Tuesday’s patch.

Tweet to @GamerBraves

“In regards to Error 2002 that occurs during login queues, outside of causes related to unstable connections, we have confirmed a bug. This bug was part of a login-related program created back in FFXIV version 1.0, and thanks to the reports and tests carried out by many of our players, we were able to identify the cause of the problem. We apologize for not being able to identify the issue on our end and thank you all for submitting detailed reports regarding this matter”, he said.
They also said they would be putting a halt to sales of the game as well as its free trial:
Players are currently experiencing extremely long wait times due to the dense concentration of play hours which far exceed our server capacity, especially during the peak times, and so we have decided to temporarily suspend the sale and delivery of FINAL FANTASY XIV Starter Edition and Complete Edition. Additionally, although those with an active subscription are prioritized to log in, Free Trial players are unable to log in outside of late night and early morning hours, and so we will also temporarily suspend new registrations for the Free Trial.
In short, since people are buying the game then finding out they can’t play, they’re making it so you can’t buy the game temporarily, at least until the issue blows over more.
FFXIV has had an amazing year for growth, due in part to more people hearing about the game and the so-called WoW Exodus, where popular World of Warcraft Streamers started to cover it instead.
That combined with a lack of ability to buy new servers lead to severe congestion come Endwalker launch, frustrating many players as they spent hours in queue just to get in and play the game.

[TGS 2018] An interview with the producer of Days Gone – Chris Reese, John Garvin and Jeff Ross

Talking about PlayStation 4 exclusives, you will probably think of God of War, Detroit: Become Human and Marvel’s Spider-Man that launched this year. From our experience, PS4 exclusives always give us the most promising titles, and Days Gone will be one of the most-anticipated ones coming in 2019. We are lucky to get a chance to interview its producer, Chris Reese, John Garvin and Jeff Ross, so check out what they told us below!

Days Gone is an action-adventure survival horror game where you will control Deacon St. John who struggles to survive in a post-apocalyptic world full of Freakers. As he was a member of a bike club before the world fell to ruins, you can travel across the open world with a bike (you will have only one bike for the whole game).

The bike can be damaged and of course, it will need fuel to travel so you must find resources to upgrade the bike and keep it running. The location of the bike will be your checkpoint too, you will respawn or continue your saved game from that location. Be careful where you park your bike!

Tweet to @GamerBraves

The game features 3 main storylines where you will discover pieces of stories and clues that tell you more about how the world ended. In the game, you will face hordes of mutated humans – the Freaks and there will be 8 types of them. Those Freaks can infect other humans, turning them into Freaks. They won’t intentionally attack you, but if your health is low they will become aggressive.

The Freaks are active at night and retreat to their nest to rest during the day. Therefore, you should avoid staying outside at night, instead you can stay at your base and wait for tomorrow to come. At the base, you can sleep to skip the night (5 minutes in real life = 1 hour in the game). However, this wouldn’t recover your health so you will still need medicine. You can also go days without sleep and there won’t be any harm to your character.

The only way to destroy a nest is by starting a fire. There are multiple ways to do so – you can use a Molotov, gasoline, incendiary bolt (crossbow) and more. Freaks aren’t your only enemy, you might be attacked by Marauders (other humans) and creatures like wolves too. Aside from these, you may face a unique enemy type (the boss) as well.

Days Gone is an open-world game, which means you can explore the world freely to gather the resources you want. But be careful to not make loud noises, as you might trigger the “Escalation” that summons hordes of enemies.

There will be a great variety of traps and weapons that you can use such as Pistols, Uzi and Axe. Melee weapons will have an endurance level shown next to the weapon icon. Once it is depleted, the weapon will break. Fortunately, we can always craft items and weapons using the resources we found, there will be a skill tree allowing you to learn skills to repair melee weapons too.
(From left to right) John Garvin, Jeff Ross, Chris Reese

These are all we know from our interview with Chris Reese, John Garvin and Jeff Ross! Days Gone will be releasing exclusively for PlayStation 4 on February 22, 2019. You can visit their official website for more information, and stay tuned for the pre-order!

Coral Island Indiegogo page is a scam

Stairway Games, the developer for farming sim Coral Island has declared that the Indiegogo page for Coral Island is not made by them.

At the time of writing, the fake Indiegogo campaign has raised just over $4,000 USD from 63 backers. While it is unknown who or what party is running this scam, it is unfortunate that they have profited off Stairway Games’ hard work.
The fake campaign on Indiegogo is an exact duplicate of Coral Island‘s Kickstarter page. The Kickstarter page is a legitimate crowdfunding campaign ran by Stairway Games. A true success story, the developer managed to raise over 1.6 million USD for the project. Thanks to more than 36,000 backers, the project met all of its stretch goals.
The Yogyakarta, Indonesia-based developer plans to officially launch the game later this year in October. Players can plant crops, raise animals, go fishing, and perform many other activities in this island-based farming sim.
For those who wish to pre-order the game, stay tuned to the game’s Twitter account. Players will be able to pre-order the game on Backerkit soon.

Gloria Union: Twin Fates in Blue Ocean FHD Edition debut trailer

Japan-based game developer Sting has put up the debut trailer for Gloria Union: Twin Fates in Blue Ocean FHD Edition, for smartphones and the Nintendo Switch.

To recap, Gloria Union: Twin Fates in Blue Ocean FHD Edition is an enhanced port of the original Gloria Union: Twin Fates in Blue Ocean that first came out in June 2011. Mobile and Switch remaster users will find additional features, including balance adjustments, high definition resolution and ease of play changes, as well as cheats, if you are so inclined. The main games of the Department Heaven series were localized by Atlus for English-speaking audiences, while the Union sub-series have all been Japan exclusive.

Given that the game seems pretty separate even from its own sub-series, this might be a chance for the game to get localised, bringing another take on the tactical role-playing genre after so long. The Dept. Heaven series was also supposedly going to get an MMO for PC when it was revealed in 2008, but nothing seems to have come of the project. There certainly appears to be much effort put into this project, but will the port breathe new life into the series? We shall see when it releases proper next week on 18 March 2021.

Diablo IV and Overwatch 2 Have Been Delayed Indefinitely

Blizzard Entertainment has announced that Diablo IV and Overwatch 2 have been delayed without a clear release period.

They cite that both games need extra time in development to be brought to a higher quality of standard.

“While we are still planning to deliver a substantial amount of content from Blizzard next year, we are now planning for a later launch for Overwatch 2 and Diablo IV than originally envisaged,” Activision Blizzard said on to Polygon.
“These are two of the most eagerly anticipated titles in the industry, and our teams have made great strides towards completion in recent quarters. But we believe giving the teams some extra time to complete production and continue growing their creative resources to support the titles after launch will ensure that these releases delight and engage their communities for many years into the future.”

While the company has not confirmed a connection, the Diablo IV and Overwatch 2 have been delayed following the recent lawsuit Blizzard received from the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing following allegations of sexual harassment and discrimination enabled by Blizzard’s higher-ups.
While they are not officially connected to the lawsuit, many of Blizzard’s senior staff involved in the allegations have exited from the company including Diablo IV’s director, who was only recently replaced this October. Overwatch has likewise seen the original game’s director and executive director leave. These exits would likely have a large effect on both games’ development.

Both games were announced at Blizzcon 2019 with little heard from either since. Diablo recently saw a remaster of Diablo 2, named Diablo 2: Resurrected for modern consoles though.
Diablo IV and Overwatch 2 will release for PC, Xbox Series X, and PS5 sometime in the future.

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

The Post-launch Update 2 for Demon Slayer The Hinokami Chronicles, the console game based on the popular anime series Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, is now available.
In Demon Slayer The Hinokami Chronicles update 2, two demons, Yahaba and Susamaru, are added as playable characters for Versus Mode. Yahaba features a tricky combat style as he manipulates arrows, which do not deal damage themselves, to hurt his opponents by slamming them into the ground. Susamaru specializes in quickly defeating her opponents with long-range attacks using mari balls.

This update also introduces the 60 fps setting for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Steam, allowing some parts of the game to be enjoyed at 60 fps. The update also includes new Online Missions, new Rewards, such as new Quotes and Profile Photos, and some minor bug fixes.

Tweet to @GamerBraves

Following Kibutsuji’s orders, Yahaba sets off on a mission with Susamaru to attack Tanjiro in Asakusa. He has eyes on both hands and can generate arrows that manipulate directional forces with his Blood Demon Art.
Yahaba fights using arrows, which makes him a long-range fighter. Although the arrows themselves do no damage, opponents struck by them can be dealt damage by lifting them into the air and bashing them into the ground. He can even strike rocks with his arrows and throw them at his opponent.

Yahaba’s attacks include those deal damage and those that do not. Make sure to plan your combos around the attacks that deal damage!
Keep your distance and look for openings while hitting your opponent with attacks that don’t deal damage, and then deal heavy damage by using combos that center around attacks that do deal damage!

Susamaru (Voiced by: Mikako Komatsu)

Susamaru sets off on the same mission with Yahaba to attack Tanjiro in Asakusa, as per Kibutsuji’s orders. She is a demon that takes on the appearance of a young girl and strikes her enemies with powerful mari balls.
Susamaru fights by throwing powerful mari balls from afar at her opponents. She can even attack short-range opponents, including members of the Demon Slayer Corps, from outside their reach without them ever touching her.

Her attacks generally involve throwing mari balls at her opponents while dynamically moving in and out of range, while her high-damage combos can also start with kicking strikes.
Post-launch Updates #3 is scheduled to be released as well. The next update will also introduce demons as special Versus Mode characters.
Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles is available for PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC. Check out what happened in update 1 for more information on the game.

What you can expect from Torchlight: The Legend Continues

We reported about Torchlight: The Legend Continues a few days ago which the game is now in their pre-registration phase. Many of you might have no idea how the game would be or wonder will it ruin the original series, so we did a short gameplay on the Torchlight Mobile released a couple of months ago in China.

Torchlight: The Legend Continues is said to be based on China’s Torchlight Mobile (developed and published by Runic Games and Perfect World) but in an English version. From what you can see from the video, it is basically an ARPG which you can easily find a mobile game with similar features on the market now.

You can create your character from the 4 classes available – Ember Blade, Engineer, Kitsune and Assassin (non-official character class translation). Every class have their unique characteristics and skills that you can upgrade or enhance when you progress further in the game. You can also customize your character (hair colours and equipment).

The controls are adaptive while looking smooth and dynamic. Even through the movement controlling joystick appears at the left bottom side, but you can actually access the joystick at any part of the screen. While for the skill releasing mechanics, it is similar to most of the ARPGs out there so I think you can get the hang of it easily. Talking about its gameplay, there are several multiplayer game modes including the MOBA and PvP battles. You can trade loots and golds with other players too.
The game features pet system which you can get them by missions or the gacha system. Different from its PC predecessor, the pets are not longer just a supporter, they will now raise your damage and give out bonus stats. There are several rank and rarity for the pets too (well it is common for a mobile game with gacha system).

The graphics of the game isn’t very impressive (comparing to many of the ARPG with high-end graphics now) but it is good in another way – you don’t need a powerful smartphone to play the game. The more important thing is, its environment and UI designs are generally same as the original version.
Overall the game is good to play, but it might get boring after a long period of playing. And to be honest, it is obviously a P2W game so many of us might get disappointed. However these are only my opinion on the China version of Torchlight Mobile, we will see how the game roll out when it finally releases. Share your opinions below!

GB: In Monster Hunter Stories, being a rider is supposed to be a secret. In Monster Hunter Riders, however, riders are pretty much everywhere. Can you tell us the connection between Stories and Riders? Are they in the same timeline, or even a parallel world?
Izumi: Similar to Monster Hunter Stories, riders and their partners (Monsties) also exists in the game. But the characters and stories [of Riders] has no connection to Stories. The game system, lore and story background is original to Riders.

In the backstory of Riders, there is a well-known story of ten riders stopping a major catastrophe. Their heroics are remembered and thus respected by everyone.
Just some of the armours on display at the Monster Hunter 15th Exhibition.
GB: Being able to switch armours and weapons is a norm for the Monster Hunter series. Why can’t we do that in Riders?
Izumi: Every rider has their own reason or story in wielding and wearing their weapons and armours. As with Halcyon’s Lagiacrus armour, from a story-telling perspective, it actually tells a part of a rider’s story. In this setting, the weapons and armours then become a significant part of a rider’s character. We hope that players can enjoy the game with this in mind.
GB: Currently, there are only so few recruitable monsters/monsties. How do you plan to address this?
Izumi: Currently, we are planning to add 3 to 4 monsters every month.
GB: There are many characters in the game, with a lot of them not voiced. How would plan to address this?
Izumi: Depending on the characters, giving them a voice can add more depth to their overall personality. There will be more unique riders making an appearance in the game, so please look forward to it.
Getting our iconic ol’ buddy still needs a little work.
GB: Currently, we feel that a few of the quests are too hard, especially the advanced Rathalos quest. Do you plan to maintain this level of difficulty in the future?
Izumi: We create a quest with the ‘motto’ of “[a] challenging foe” and “[a] difficult opponent”. Players start off by challenging the beginner quest. Should they fail it, then players will need to plan and strategize accordingly to the opponent’s weakness. As they play the game, players will gradually get stronger everyday, before they can finally challenge the hardest difficulty.
We hope that new and old players can continue enjoying the game. The “Monster Challenge Quest” will remain as an important feature, and we will be adding different difficulty levels of monster quests.
GB: Will we have a PVP mode in the future? What about raid battles, guild system or even adding friends?
Editor’s note: At time of writing, none of these are available in the game.
Izumi: We created the game with the idea of a “single player PVE content”, while gathering more partners (monsties) and riders, and gradually increasing their player strength. We want to continue with this mindset/objective to our best ability and provide it to the players.
There is a lot of feedback from players requesting for the friend system and multiplay feature, of course. Right now, we are working on implementing the “add friend” feature. As for multiplay, we are still discussing internally on what kind of multiplay will be able to fit into the game, and meet player expectation.
The 4 million celebratory milestone.
GB: Can you share with us how many downloads the game has at the moment? How much of that are gamers from outside of Japan?
Izumi: As of 19 March, the game has exceeded 4 million downloads. Currently the game is not officially open outside of Japan, thus we are unable to provide the number of worldwide players.
GB: Is Monster Hunter Riders going to have a Global version, or even a Chinese version? Do you have a time frame for that if so?
Izumi: At the moment, we don’t have anything new to share. We have already received the feedback regarding localization, so we hope to discuss this further.
GB: Will we be seeing monsters that are introduced into both Monster Hunter World and Iceborne into Riders in the future?
Izumi: Of course, but we cannot give an exact release timing yet.
GB: Anything else you would like to share with us?
Izumi: Thank you for all the support from Monster Hunter fans. Though it might seem we are just repeating ourselves, but we really did receive a lot of feedback from worldwide Monster Hunter fans expressing the hope or need for localization of the game. Even if it’s just for one more person, we do hope that more players will be able to enjoy the game. We will continue discussing this internally regarding this possibility.
We’ll be looking forward to that localization, hopefully sooner than later. How have you been enjoying the game so far?

Shin Ultraman Review – I Think Nukes Might Be Bad, Guys.

I got to review Shin Ultraman-probably the greatest proof that Shin Godzilla wasn’t a fluke- Hideaki Anno’s Shin Hero brand really is just a great mix of breathing new life into iconic Japanese characters as well as some refreshingly biting commentary about real world issues.

Admittedly I’m not a die-hard Ultraman fan- by the time Ultraman had hit Malaysia there were so many giant silver men doing elbow drops on kaiju that it was almost overwhelming. But a general pop-culture awareness combined with the excellent 2011 Ultraman manga did get me interested in Shin Ultraman- and as luck would have it, access to the movie on my flight back from TGS 2022.

Still, being a huge mark for anything with Hideaki Anno producing and a general love for tokusatsu made me immediately interested in what Shin Ultraman brings to the table.
Surprise, It’s Politics!
Just like Shin Godzilla before it, Shin Ultraman kind of eschews the hero’s journey formula- it starts with a pretty quick montage of the state of things: Kaiju have appeared in Japan, enough that the government now has its own special body for combating them (and even a guy who names them). One day, however, an giant silver man appears alongside the kaiju, seemingly to fight it.

Tweet to @GamerBraves

I should point out, the first act of this movie is practically breakneck in pace. Somehow, everyone in the movie immediately understands the difference between kaiju and aliens, and the movie continues to ramp up with the implications of a) aliens existing and b) them seemingly always coming to Japan.

Naturally, you might think that this would be some build up to a giant CGI swarm fight, but that’s the most important thing to learn about Shin Ultraman- it’s rarely so simple. Instead, each new alien is presented as a political problem, or more accurately, a political opportunity. After all, unlike the kaiju who just kind of roar and stomp, they talk!
This is really where Shin Ultraman most feels like it has something to say. Government officials are constantly talking about just how pressured Japan is on the international stage. When aliens show up, they absolutely have to kowtow to them, since the aliens are constantly dangling the idea of sharing their technology with other countries instead.
This kind of tension is the meat of Shin Ultraman- how do you do diplomacy with parties you just cannot be on an equal playing field with? The movie asks this question but has no answers. I mean, unless you have access to your own silver giant with elbow drops, that is.
Of Course The Giant Silver Man Has No Teeth
I absolutely adore how good the aliens in this movie look.
Admittedly, this is kind of where the movie does falter compared to Shin Godzilla- that movie was almost scathing in what it had to say: it was so much about the need for a new generation to take over that its own scene where every senior politician is violently blown up almost felt like revenge porn. In comparison, Shin Ultraman feels a lot more complainey in its commentary. It knows the problems, but doesn’t really know the solutions (and that’s probably for the better, considering just how complicated any of Japan’s foreign policy issues are).
One thing that does seem to hold up, though, is the movie’s opinion on nuclear weapons. While not always namedropped, there is a through line in the movie about weapons that would be catastrophic for anyone to have, and the counterargument of “that’s why we should have it”. It even manages to squeeze in a few side-criticisms of arms dealers while we’re at it, too, to the point I had to double check the credits to make sure Hideo Kojima hadn’t snuck into the writing room under a pseudonym.
That being said, the movie’s final dilemma is definitely on brand for the rest of the movie. Without getting into spoilers, it’s exactly the kind of weird and pondering final act the movie would get to. If you’ve been okay with the pace of the movie up to this point, it’s exactly what you’d want out of a final act.
Closing Thoughts

And that’s very much my review of Shin Ultraman in macrocosm- if you’re okay with the fact it’s not all wrestling moves and flashy supers, you’ll probably really like it as another in a series of movies that seem to use beloved characters to talk about current issues.
It’s not a total lecture- the action scenes we do get are amazing, as are the costume designs for the various aliens. But the point is if you wanted a movie that was at least subtle about what it has to say about global politics, you’re going to find yourself disappointed with Shin Ultraman. Personally? I very much love that about the movie. But if you’re the type who got into the new wave of Tokusatsu only looking for sick clips of beatdowns, you’d probably want to look elsewhere.
The ability for movies to leave you with questions in a good way is so rarely used nowadays, it’s refreshing to see the Shin Hero series pull it off twice in a row. Mix that with the tokusatsu homage aesthetic that Studio Khara has down to a tee, and you have all the makings for a movie quite unlike anything else on the market right now.

Shin Ultraman will be showing in Malaysia on October 6th via GSC

The pre-order period will run until 1 June 2021, 23:59 JST. The estimated delivery period will be December 2021.

This isn’t Seiko’s first rodeo with game / anime collaborations, having previously also designed products for a large range of other properties including Naruto, Haikyuu!!, Detective Conan, Fate/Grand Order and Street Fighter V, and none of them have been especially wallet friendly either.
Well, if you are flush and have money to spare, feel free to get one of these Arknights watches and flex that Seiko brand.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns features Slay The Spire gameplay meets Mass Effect storytelling

Earlier today, Firaxis Games showed a bit off gameplay and more details on their upcoming tactical RPG, Marvel’s Midnight Suns. You can watch the gameplay reveal here:

Set in the darker side of the Marvel universe, Lilith, the Mother of Demons was revived by HYDRA through a combination of dark magic and science. In response, the Avengers revive the legendary hero known as the Hunter, the child of Lilith and the only person known to have beaten her before.

The game puts players in the shoes of the Hunter, a customisable superhero. Players can determine the gender, appearance and abilities of the Hunter. As a result, the Hunter is a multi-role character, capable of filling in any position necessary for your 3-person team in combat.

In terms of gameplay, it appears that Marvel’s Midnight Suns is a deckbuilder of sorts, with the player’s combat options dependant on the cards they have available to them. Like Slay The Spire, players get to upgrade and select their cards to use in battle, with the game promising deep, strategic gameplay. Whether it matches the level of depth and planning like Slay The Spire is still hard to tell from the gameplay, however.

Another fascinating aspect of the game is the relationships players can make with the Midnight Suns, comprised of heroes from The Avengers, X-Men, Runaways and more. Similar to Mass Effect and Persona 5, part of the game is also living together and making friends with the members of the Midnight Suns. Based on who you choose to hang out with and what you do together, said character can get stronger.
Marvel’s Midnight Suns releases in March 2022 for PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, PS4, PS5 and Switch. Check out the game’s website for more info.
