Welcome back to Marvel’s Midnight Suns! Following the preview, I’ve since spent more time with the game, so here we are. Do check out the preview here.

SKY HIGH
I want to approach this from a subjective angle first. I’ve heard plenty of one-liners by now, and I have to say, I’m still enjoying it. I can’t say I have the same enthusiasm for the variety of lore pieces scattered around which might be taken as sacrilegious, but I would like to explain why I’ve skimmed through them when discussing more about the game later.

There’s the growing pains of a ragtag group of apparent teenagers and the “Earth’s Mightiest Heroes” forced to come together to stop a world ending threat, with the crux of their plan being the child of said world ending threat. The Hunter has to be the heart, despite being dead for the past 300 years.

BUILD-A-HUNTER
Upgrading and research pretty much feed into each other. Researching will get you the materials needed for upgrades, which in turn fulfills conditions in order to research new things. You need the upgrades for your heroes’ cards to get stronger, so that you can take them out on missions for other research prerequisites. You can get these resources as you explore the Abbey, but at the early stage, it’s hardly worth the effort to pick up such miniscule drops.

The Hunter will be able to lean “Light” or “Dark”, and unlock respective passives for doing so (and changing the colour of the collar). This Balance is affected not just in certain dialogue choices, but also the skills you use most frequently in combat. From what I can see, the Balance in turn affects how affective your cards are in that certain alignment. For example, my Heal started off at restoring 60, but has grown to 117 following an upgrade.
More passive stats can be gained through helping out the heroes in the Abbey, or as you upgrade stuff, potentially from sparring as well (for the respective heroes). There’s a lot of incremental stuff that encourages you to mix around with your fellow Midnight Suns / Avengers to really liven the place up (and get more suits via Research for helpful passives).

Unfortunately, this honestly can feel like a drag; grinding for the nitty gritty in between some enjoyable combat and conversation dampens the fun a touch.
ABBEY IN THE WOODS
I mentioned in the preview that the story and the characters are what I like best about Midnight Suns, and I stand by that. I’m sure there are bound to be complaints about the exposition dumps, the long conversations, but I enjoy how they’re delivered.

The combat and gameplay loop is enjoyable, up to a point. There’s a whole bunch of things that interconnect, which can be both a strength and weakness:

Facility and ability upgrades, sparring, hero ops, all have their respective resource cost. It adds a layer of grinding I don’t particularly enjoy
However, you need to hit the pre-requisites so that you can unlock other stuff, namely the other facilities for some sweet bonuses, team combo attacks in battle
Cards from coils feature the heroes you took for a previous mission. Overlevelling aside, the fact that you have to discard half the cards you get means there’ll be that other grind for whoever else you want to use
Exploration will net you small resource pick-ups and other crafting items for extracurricular activities; while they’re optional, they do unlock nifty bonuses
Story missions may require you to do one regular mission before you dive into progressing the narrative, which may feel like it’s slowing down the narrative tension
Backtracking is necessary not just to get the random resources around; places do update themselves with more unique collectibles. While running around isn’t that slow, it does mean needing to re-exploring places that aren’t necessarily populated

INTO LIMBO
I don’t want to talk too much about the story seeing as that’s what I insist is the strongest part of the game, aside from the combat. I’m torn in wholeheartedly recommending this game with the rich lore you can find scattered around because of the sheer amount of honestly un-fun tedium that drags things down during the in-between. The pace becomes glacial with all the random resource gates I come across trying to fix up the place or get some upgrades.

It’s good for moderate gaming sessions. As cool as they are, I think the canned animations and busy work wear on you eventually that holds Marvel’s Midnight Suns back from being a possibly campy, pretty great fun.

                                        Combat is a fun twist to strategy, and card game

One Piece Odyssey Review – The Memories Are Real

One Piece Odyssey is an RPG game developed by ILCA and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment featuring the characters from the One Piece series.

The game follows the Straw Hats on their adventure to reclaim their memories in the island of Waford and is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC.

Reclaim Your Memories in this Odyssey
One Piece Odyssey sets in the Waford Island where the Straw Hats crashed landed after being swallowed by a huge storm at sea. Things got even worse when they encountered Adio and Lim, two new characters for the game. Lim’s hatred for pirates causes her to scatter the Straw Hats’ memories around the island.
I actually like how they start the game with this act. Now we have a logical reasoning why the Straw Hats start at level 1 despite all the adventures they have gone through, because they don’t have any memories of it.

Another amazing thing they did with the memory part is when it comes to reclaiming it. Apart from being able to regain the Straw Hats lost skills, you’ll also be reliving the tales of adventures they had. The One Piece series has many, many arcs and while Odyssey only retells four arcs, they did it in a way that is easy for newcomers to series to digest.
However, the game’s rendition of the past arcs isn’t exactly a 1 to 1 adaptation so you technically won’t get the meat of each arc, just they key moments of it. I can understand why veterans to the series would be a bit peeved at it since it is the development and the emotions flowing through each arc that makes them very memorable.
Nevertheless, this was a very smart decision on their end so that players who are not really all that into One Piece can still know the characters without having to go through the series’ bible.
The Odyssey’s Gameplay
Rather than going for the same old action-adventure gameplay from previous One Piece games, Odyssey takes a different approach and instead went for the traditional turn-based JRPGs.
When you start a battle, up to four crew members will be thrown into the battlefield and the rest will be in reserve. The game employs the rock-paper-scissor elements into its combat. For example, rock attacks work well against scissors type enemies but are weak against paper type enemies. You’ll need to play around this to get the best result in battle.

One amazing feature they have in Odyssey is the ability to freely swap the active characters with the reserves whenever you still have action points to use. This makes it so I can adapt to whatever situation at hand rather than having to predict my way to victory before entering any kind of combat.
To spice up its turn-based combat, Odyssey has a feature called Dramatic Scene that provides extra objectives that you can clear to get extra rewards. Some of them are scripted and others can randomly pop-up during battles. The scenes could go from having a specific Straw Hat defeat the enemy or protect an ally until the end of battle. Depending on the situation, you can just ignore it if its too difficult but the rewards they offer are just too sweet to ignore.

Odyssey is not all turn-based and when outside of battle, you can do all sorts of stuff from roaming the levels to discover treasures and even interact with the NPCs to gain additional quests. The Straw Hats also come with abilities that can help you explore even more of the island. We have Luffy extending his arms to reach far-away places, Sanji detecting hidden ingredients scattered around the map and Chopper squeezing through small areas.
Fun little trivia, the team behind Odyssey had also worked on Dragon Quest XI and a few Tales series so if you’re familiar with them, Odyssey feels right at home for you.
Resting Amidst Your Adventure
As you explore the island of Waford, you’ll come across camp sites that you can use to rest up. Setting up camp lets you fully restore your HP along with tons of other benefits. There are more options that you can do while camping as well, which includes cooking and crafting.

When cooking, Sanji can use the ingredients that you’ve scavenged from exploring to cook up delicious meals that you can use in battle. These meals bring far better effects than the foods you can pick up, like healing all allies in one go while also granting status buffs.
As for crafting, we have Usopp with his Trick balls and Robin for her Mystery Craft. Trick balls can be used to provides buffs to your team or debuffing the enemies while Mystery Craft sews up equipment for you.
Unlike traditional RPGs where each type of equipment has a dedicated slot to it, Odyssey gives each member of the Straw Hat a grid that you can freely slot in any equipment you want. The grid has limited space to it however but you can expand it by acquiring more blocks by progressing into the game.

The Breathtaking Odyssey
One Piece Odyssey is gorgeous to say the least. In fact, I daresay it is the most beautiful One Piece game to date. The environments are all pleasing to explore and it is always an amazing feeling to explore iconic locations from the series.
The character models are also amazing. They bring out the same aesthetic you get from the series’ manga and not once did they look off. Even their funny expressions are exaggerated the same way they would in the manga.
Even the monsters are all amazing. The designs originated from the series and there were even some that are specifically designed by Eiichiro Oda for this game.

Final Piece Thoughts
One Piece Odyssey’s innovative approach is very risky, from the new plot to the new approach to the gameplay itself. However, in order to break away from the disappointing trend of anime video games, daring moves like these might be the one thing One Piece needs.
Odyssey is also very fun to play as a standalone RPG. While the retelling might be all too faithful to the source material, it is just enough for newcomers to get to know the Straw Hats and enjoy One Piece both as a game and as a series.

                                        Pros

                                        Cons

                                        Impressive addition to its turn-based gameplay that spice things up just nicely

                                        Turn-based combat as it is does not appeal to many

                                        Visually gorgeous and amazing character models

                                        The retelling is not as faithful and less ideal for One Piece fans

One Piece Odyssey was played on the PlayStation 5

[Gamescom Asia 2022] Cuisineer Let’s You Cook Up Meals From Defeating Monsters

During the Primetime livestream for Gamescom Asia 2022, a new trailer showcasing gameplay for the upcoming indie action RPG title – Cuisineer was shown off.

Developed by BattleBrew Productions, Cuisineer is a food focused game where you play as Pom, an adventurer who has returned back to her hometown of Paell only to find out that you’ve inherited the family restaurant but it is in debt and on the brink of collapse and the only way to pay back the debt is to reopen the restaurant.

From the gameplay trailer, we control as Pom as we traverse the dungeon to which it seems to have the levels be separated into floors, as we fend off against monsters to collect ingredients as we dive deeper into the dungeon, which has procedurally generated levels.
Cuisineer is also split into two main gameplay elements, one being the aforementioned dungeon-delving, and the other one becomes a restaurant simulator where the game has you running your restaurant where you cook up meals using the ingredients that you’ve gathered from defeating the monsters and manage your customer’s every needs.

Capcom’s popular franchise Monster Hunter has been an ever expanding series filled with its deep lore, engaging gameplay as well as possibly the main selling point of the franchise, the interesting and unique varieties of different kinds of Monsters in the Monster Hunter universe.

And with the release of Monster Hunter World: Iceborn, the game’s popularity has definitely surged. One common way to capitalize the popularity of a certain franchise is by publishing merchandises, most notably in terms of figures and figurines.

We got our hands on a Glavenus or its Japanese name Dinovaldo (ディノバルド) figure and we’d like to showcase this magnificent figure.
A brief intro to Glavenus, it is a Large Monster of the Brute Wyvern species. Glavenus can spit fire and wield its heavy blue tail like a blade. It sparks its tail with its jaws to light it up, making it glow red which is similar to where Hunters would sharpen their blades when its blunt.

Glavenus was first introduced in Monster Hunter Generations and is part of the Fated Four which are the four flagship monsters in the game.
The Fated Four
Glavenus is arguably the fan favorite of the Fated Four due to its super cool monster design as well as the badass armor set that it provides in the game.

But before we get into the review, we would like to thank the kind souls in Gamer Break for allowing us to have this chance to review this figure. Do check out their Facebook page for more cool goodies.
– Review –
Overview of the Glavenus figure
At first glance, it’s not hard to see how detailed the figure is. From its head all the way to its tail, the figure is beautifully crafted and it’s super well detailed.

The creeks and cracks on its body are well sculpted making the figure ooze with life. Not only that, the scales have the rough and intricate look to further emphasize the jagged feel that Glavenus is supposed to give off.

Not only are the colors are painted on nicely, the blending of contrasting colors are also mix in well and you hardly can see any off putting colors being painted on halfheartedly.
Close-up shot 3
You can barely notice any seams on this figure, they really hide it well in between the rocks as well as underneath the craggy scales which is always a plus and shows how well the craftsmanship of the figure is.
Top down shot
The overall feel to the figure is really firm and holds weight which further amplifies the pristine quality of this figure and most importantly, it does not feel cheap at all.
The highlight of the figure to me would be the tail. The blueish/purplish hue where the tail is yet to be sharpen by Glavenus itself really plays off well to showcase the “metallic” parts of Glavenus’ tail and gives a really nice contrast of colors to make it stand out more.
All in all, this figure is definitely very high quality and a must buy for fans of Glavenus. It even comes with its own rocky high ground together with Glavenus, what’s not to love?

Black Stella: Inferno pre-registrations open in Japan

As of 4 March 2022, Black Stella: Inferno has begun accepting pre-registrations for its upcoming release in Japan. The announcement also comes with a new teaser trailer, as well as the release of image songs on the official website.

The game is presently still planned for release in Spring 2022, once again only in Japan as far as its known. Much like other mobile games, Black Stella: Inferno has milestone rewards for the number of pre-registrations, currently going up to 100,000. You’ll get currency to gacha at least 50 times and a character skin at 100,000.

Hopefully the rebirth of this project will go through much more smoothly. If you weren’t aware, Black Stella was a project originally conceived much earlier with a planned launch in June 2019, before it was ultimately postponed indefinitely and finally cancelled. Back then, it hit 150,000 pre-registrations, so presumably, it shouldn’t be too hard for the game to reach that again.

The change in management has also seen a shift, from a 2D turn-based battler to a multiplayer real-time battler, with changes to the art and assets accordingly. Creators previously named in the project have returned, including Takaaki Suzuki (Girls und Panzer), Fumiaki Maruto (Saekano), Tappei Nagatsuki (Re:Zero), Yoshiaki Inaba (Lugalgigam) and Oguchi, with other writers also noted to be contributing to the scenario.
It presumably won’t be too long before the game launches, so keep an eye out.

PS4 Games Region Codes Explained

When you bought a physical copy of your most anticipated PS4 game and found out that the game does not support your preferred language nor will you get any DLCs on it when you’re back in your comfortable crib… this might save yourself the trip back to the game store.

Games are published worldwide based on regions by publishers. Yes, the games are usually compatible with all PS4 from different regions but if you’re worried about region locked DLCs, Updates and Patches or supported language, you will need to look out for a certain region indicator before your purchase.

Certain games are released in different regions due to language and censorship which may not be appropriate if released in that region. Thus, games are released in batches dependent on regions. As seen in the pictures above, you might notice at the bottom back corner of your physical copy – a certain globe with a number on it. The number indicates which region the game is released.
To check if the game you bought is released for your region, here’s a list of region codes below:
R0 – ALL
R1 – Bermuda, Canada, United States and U.S. territories
R2 – The Middle East, Western Europe, Central Europe, Egypt, French overseas territories, Greenland, Japan, Lesotho, South Africa and Swaziland
R3 – Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, Macau, South Korea and Taiwan
R4 – Australasia, Central America, the Caribbean, Mexico, Oceania, South America
R5 – The rest of Africa, Former Soviet Union, the Indian subcontinent, Mongolia, North Korea
R6 – Mainland China
Here’s a comparison between 3 different region released of MHW:

As seen in the pictures above, the games are from Region 2, 4 and ALL. You will also be able to find the languages that are supported in the game at the back of your physical cover. That way you can make sure that the game you bought is tied to your region so that you can download any updates or patches that supports your game.
This is especially important for your PSN codes as well. Because PSN codes are locked to the country that it is bought from – it must match the country of the PSN account. This also applies to DLCs and it must match the region of the PSN account and the region the game was bought from.
Hope this helps!

Final Fantasy VII Remake December Preview: New visuals for characters, Aerith abilities, Shiva summon

Square Enix has released more Final Fantasy VII Remake more visuals and revealed some key information on locations and characters this December, so let’s dive right in!

Mako─ the lifeblood of the planet and the fuel that sustains the city of Midgar…

By exploiting this resource to power their reactors, the Shinra Electric Power Company has all but seized control of the entire world. A ragtag group of idealists, known as Avalanche, are one of the last bastions of resistance.
Cloud, an elite SOLDIER operative turned mercenary, takes part in an Avalanche operation to destroy Mako Reactor 1 in the city of Midgar. The bombing plunges the city into fiery chaos, and amidst the raging inferno, Cloud is tormented by visions of a bitter enemy long thought dead.

After this hallucination fades, he meets a young woman selling flowers, who offers him a single yellow blossom. In that instant, a host of swirling shadows surround them. Once more begins a story that will shape the destiny of an entire world.
CHARACTERS
First, let’s see these stunning new visuals of Tifa and Sephiroth.

Related Posts

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

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

Next up, Sephiroth himself! The first and finest of SOLDIER, he was hailed as a hero after his gallant efforts in the war with Wutai. Youths have since been inspired to join SOLDIER to be like him. The man is thought to have died during a top secret mission, but details are unknown.

Of course, we have the ever present Shinra Electric Power Company. This company is a huge conglomerate, ruling the world with mako energy and is centered around Midgar. It’s divided into the Public Security, Advanced Weaponry, Research and Development, and Space and Aeronautic Divisions. Each have their own eccentric directors.

President Shinra himself, the current president of the company, single-handedly grew the company from a small arms manufacturer to its current state. Cutthroat business tactics are fair game for him to secure profits, and eliminating opposition is not beyond him. He is pretty openhanded should you be lucky enough to be in his good graces.

Heidegger’s director of Public Security. The former commanding officer has been President Shinra’s right-hand man since the early days of the company. With implicit trust from the president, his department is the most powerful within Shinra. He’s as ruthless as the president himself, sacrificing subordinates without hesitation as he sees fit.

This 3-C SOLDIER operator turned rebel loves his bikes, speed and anyone who can match him, with a fitting moniker of “Speed Demon”. His comrades find him irritating with how he constantly squeals his rear tire and making them choke on burnt rubber.
BATTLE INTRODUCTION – AERITH

Aerith can perform ranged magic attacks with the Square button. Launch successive attacks by pressing the button repeatedly or holding it. The number of targets increases when launched in succession, covering a wide area.
The Triangle button lets Aerith use her unique ability, “Tempest”. Charge it up by holding the button to increase its damage. A max-charged button makes it explode repeatedly on hitting an enemy.

She also possesses the abilities “Soul Drain” and “Lustrous Shield”. The former lets her absorb MP from enemies, while the latter conjures a magical shield that keeps enemies at bay and stops projectiles. Enemies contacting the shield will take damage.

                    Soul Drain.

                    Lustrous Shield.

SUMMONS
Equip Summoning Materia and summon them when the special gauge fills up! They’ll fight alongside you automatically, or you can use your ATB to have them perform special abilities. Before they leave, they’ll end on a powerful move. Here we have Shiva, an ice summon and proud queen of ice. She possesses the ability Heavenly Strike, where she conjures a great glacier and brings it down on an enemy’s head. Her special technique, Diamond Dust, encases enemies in ice and shatters them.

                    Heavenly Strike.

                    Diamond Dust.

ENVIRONMENTS
The structure of Midgar has been redesigned in Final Fantasy VII Remake, with more depth to both characters and the world. The train graveyard is a train depot that was used in constructing the city. At the end of its use, it became a train junkyard. Strong winds cause the abandoned carriages to creak. Characters will talk amongst each other as they pass through the maze. The original game had no dialogue in this area, but Remake has added a new story, with many event scenes.

Not just that, we have glimpses at the Shinra Building too, the headquarters of Shinra Electric Power Company. The 70-storey tall skyscraper is the core of Shinra, in the center of Midgar. The upper floors have President Shinra’s and the director’s offices, alongside the Memorial Floor – where you can learn the history of Shinra – and the Visual Entertainment Hall, demonstrating the latest technology. You can access the upper floors by the elevators or emergency stairwell.

                    Outside the building.

                    Entrance.

                    Cars on display in the building.

                    Relaxation floor.

What do you think of this December preview for Final Fantasy VII Remake? We’re a few months off yet to its release, just wait a little longer!

Last Idea, Square Enix’s smartphone RPG, shuts down on 29 May 2020. The notice can be read in Japanese here. The announcement apologizes for the sudden notice, and thanks players for supporting the game since its launch on 18 April, 2019.

Last Idea officially shuts down on 29 May 2020, at 15:00 JST. The notice says it has been determined it would be difficult to “continue providing satisfactory service” to players. Microtransactions that include gem sales, subscriptions and other paid services have ended as of 31 March 2020, 15:00 JST.

Any gems already purchased can still be used, and any subscription bonuses will continue past the expiration date. Should the subscription services be automatically renewed, the notice asks players to contact them. Notice of refunds will be informed at a later time. While the service is ending, the game promises it will still update the main quest to provide the final chapter.
Last Idea had a collaboration event with God Eater Resonant Ops some time back which may have brought in new players, but clearly that wasn’t enough. Last Idea itself had hack ‘n’ slash action made for smartphones, featuring a treasure hunter protagonist who finds a mysterious girl with amnesia, taking it upon himself to save her.

miHoYo Is Working On An Open World Shooter Made In Canada

miHoYo has announced that they’ll be working on a new game, described as a triple-A open world shooter, developed by their new Montreal-based studio.

Not much is known about the upcoming miHoYo Open world shooter, though everything we know comes from The Montreal International as well as job listings for the new studio on the site.

These include the release plans for the game- apparently it will be a multiplatform triple-A release, so we could be seeing either a Mobile/PC release such as with Honkai Star Rail and Honkai Impact, or a console release included like with Genshin Impact.
miHoYo confirmed the open world shooter gameplay on their LinkedIn, sharing the article as well.

Tweet to @GamerBraves

“As a hub for research and development, the Canada team will work closely with the global development team and focus on creating a brand new AAA open-world action-adventure game featuring shooting-based gameplay within a living, breathing paranormal world”, the post reads.
We don’t know anything else about the game, though previous fan leaks point that it could be the rumored-in-development Honkai 4, seeing as it’s been described as an action-adventure game. Fans have also pointed out it could be Project X, a previously announced title with little else known about it.
UPDATE: Industry Analyst Daniel Ahmad has confirmed that the project is indeed Project X.

“This year marks miHoYo’s tenth anniversary. Since our inception, guided by the mission of Tech Otakus Save the World, we have invested continuously in animation rendering, artificial intelligence, and cross-platform development technology to bolster our research and development capabilities. We are committed to publishing our games globally across console, PC and mobile platforms, owing to our thriving in-house distribution capabilities. We have gained a plethora of game development and operations experience as a result of Genshin Impact’s recent global release, which we can harness to create even higher-quality games to our players,” says Forrest Liu, co-founder of miHoYo.
“Montréal is home to a thriving game development community and is well-known for its world-class universities. We deeply value the expertise and creativity that the local ecosystem provides and believe it will empower miHoYo to create games with their imagination.”

Gudetama: An Eggcellent Adventure Review – Would You Like an Egg in These Trying Times?

Gudetama: An Eggcellent Adventure featuring the lazy egg Gudetama and the newly hatched chick Shakipiyo in their quest to find their mother is set to premiere on Netflix on December 13th, 2022

A little bit of trivia, Gudetama is a character created by Sanrio designer Amy, whose real name is Nagashima Emi in 2013. It came in second when it was first introduced in a competition but now it has garnered so much popularity that it even got its own Netflix series.

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

The show will air for 10 episodes with each lasting for 10 minutes making it the perfect series to watch while you’re in a public transport or having lunch.
The Adventures of an Egg
Gudetama: An Eggcellent Adventure stars Gudetama, an egg and Shakipiyo, a newly hatched chick with a part of an eggshell attached to her. Gudetama is one lazy egg yet nevertheless, he reluctantly sets off on an adventure with Shakipiyo to find their mother.
Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

The show starts off with Gudetama being confronted by Shakipiyo who keeps on insisting that they must find their mother since they are siblings. Shakipiyo declares the two as chickens, yet Gudetama calls them as eggs. In the end, Gudetama relents and the two set off to enter the wide world outside their fridge.

A show is not without its conflict, even for a light-hearted one such as this. In Gudetama: An Eggcelent Adventure, Gudetama is in fact, nearing his expiry date and nobody knows what being a rotten egg entails. They need to find their mother before that happens, even if Gudetama is too lazy to care about it.
I mentioned earlier how the two have set off into the wide world outside their fridge. They are a duo of an egg and a chick running around in a human-populated world, their journey won’t be easy. They will find themselves thrown into lots of dangerous situations, from rotating sushi bars, train rides and to hungry customers.
Amidst their journey, the two would meet up with all sorts of eggs, from hard-boiled eggs, Tamagoyaki to Chawanmushi and even learn how each of them are made. It is from here that Gudetama will start to think about his own path and what he must do before he becomes rotten.

Gudetama: An Eggcelent Adventure overall has a pretty straightforward plot. If you squint hard enough, you can already see where the plot is going. However, that’s not where the show shines the most. It is the interaction between Gudetama and Shakipiyo that brings this show to life and is sure to win your heart.
The Presentation of the Egg
The animation production for the series is handled by OLM with assistance from L’ESPACE FILM. I will be honest, amazingly enough Gudetama still retains the same cartoonish aspect of his 2D counterpart despite looking very realistic. You can tell that they are very respectful to the original art style of Gudetama.
It would not be a surprise to find people skeptical seeing how 2D does not always translate into 3D very well, but I assure you that the first few minutes will definitely clear any doubts you have on the animation.
OLM has always been an amazing studio with how they have delivered Pokemon, Komi-san and Odd Taxi. Sure, the examples are all 2D but it is amazing that they could still deliver the same number of skills into 3D.
There was not even a single point where Gudetama and Shakipiyo felt out of place when they travelled about the real world. With how amazing the visuals are, it is very clear that this series is made with lots of love and care for the source material.

With this level of visuals, I could confidently say that even those who never knew about Gudetama will definitely become a fan of him when they watch this series.
Gudetama and All The Eggs
Shunsuke Takeuchi, the voice of 24 characters in the series including Gudetama himself, plays out his role amazingly in this silly cartoon series. When it comes to Gudetama, his portrayal of the egg’s laziness as he stumbles around the world is simply amusing.
Gudetama as a character himself is also adorable. Even more so with how he plays out his laziness and simply flat out zero motivation with his droopy appearance.

A little bit of trivia here, his name, Gudetama, actually comes from the combination of the Japanese phrase for lazy (Gude gude) and egg (Tamago). True to his name, he has absolutely no interest in anything and he makes it plainly obvious as well.
I find myself relating to Gudetama’s personality because in a way, he reflects a lot of how I feel most of the time coming back home from work and have the laziness up to max.
I mentioned earlier how Shunsuke Takeuchi is voicing over 24 characters for the series, well all of them are different types of egg dishes such as “Rock”, a fried egg obsessed with rock music, “Ikura”, a Salmon Roe that questions his individuality and their own existence, and “Ganguro”, a burnt egg that loves to wear makeup.
It is both crazy and amazing how much Shunsuke Takeuchi can do. He mixes in just enough personalities for each character to make them all individually unique and entertaining to watch.
Let’s not forget Shakipiyo who is voiced by Seiran Fukushima. She is the driving force behind this series since without her, we’ll only have shots of Gudetama lazing around in the fridge. She is the straight man of the duo and the banter between the two of them is just too hilarious.

We also have a villain played by Akiyoshi Nakao who for some reason is dedicated to capturing Gudetama. The motive alone is questionable enough but he does bring out some comedy to the series with his appearance.
Egging Thoughts
In an eggshell, Gudetama: An Eggcellent Adventure is a very wholesome comedy series that you can watch alone or together with your friends or family. While it is mainly comedy, the series does touch on adult topics like personal individuality and motivation, something that I myself can relate to a bit.
The 3D CGI is just simply top notch. None of the 3D characters look out of place and the interactions between the characters are all so funny and lifelike, making the series feel much more enjoyable.
Gudetama: An Eggcellent Adventure is an adorable adventure series that everyone should watch and it doesn’t even take much time for one episode. It’s perfect to fill your time with some light humour when you’re tight on the schedule.

                                        Pros

                                        Cons

                                        Characters are awesome and funny

                                        The length for an episode feels too short

                                        Animations are top notch

                                        Story is a bit too predictable

Disney Star Smash to end service December 2021

The players did not shine on the court, as Disney Star Smash has announced its end of service after roughly a year since its launch. Disney and XFLAG’s game did not garner as much love as fellow Disney property, Twisted Wonderland, did, as it would appear. Disney Star Smash will officially end service on 7 December 2021, 15:00 JST, as stated by the notice here.

As usual, any players who may have bought premium currency may opt in for refunds, with further sales halted. The game featured an array of Disney characters with gameplay reminiscent of tennis as you smack the ball back and forth to defeat the enemies on the screen. Up to 4 players could play a stage together, co-op being one of the game’s selling points. There was also an accompanying manga following some young’uns looking to reach competitive heights in the sport. In this regard, one wonders if the manga will be rushed to completion.

Something witchy this way lies: impressions of Little Hope’s demo [ potential spoilers ]

Supermassive Games returns with another entry to The Dark Pictures Anthology, simply titled Little Hope. Through Bandai Namco Entertainment, I got the pleasure (?) to try out a demo build of the game scheduled for a 30 October 2020 release. Since it’s demo, surely even a coward can make it through without screaming, right?

Right!

Related Posts

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

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

As with the keynote, this demo impression will contain spoilers.

WHAT OPTIONS DO I HAVE?
The settings menu is always the first thing I check out in a new game. For the demo, I utilized the DualShock, but there will be keybinding options for the keyboard users. Since I turned on the accessibility options, I didn’t check controller keybinds, but they will be there for you to check in your own time. Being slightly indisposed, having options like:
Follow us on Twitter
Follow @GamerBraves
and Tweet us
Tweet to @GamerBraves

Single action prompts removing the need to hit multiple different buttons for the quick time events
Repeated actions only requiring a single press instead of a mash
Even the entire removal of QTEs for single player

… are extremely welcome. The removal of QTEs may not be functioning correctly in the demo build as there are still timed events and choices especially, so I’d like to see what they are like once the full release hits.

Then there are the subtitle options, enabling background opacity, colour-coded text and having subtitles for everything is also very appreciated. As with the accessibility options, the subtitling is not functioning at full capacity for the demo, but if you happen to be hard of hearing, you can look forward to adjusting the text as you need. Some gripes I have with these options is that you can’t preview them until you start the game, and colour-coded subs don’t look colour-blind friendly.

There’s data analytics to check once the game comes out in full, to see the choices people have made.
WEIRDSVILLE
The demo starts off about an hour into the game. You can check out the keynote presentation for further context. Andrew and John enter the town’s police station, which has definitely seen better times. The interactable items have a shine to them for you to capture your attention, and there’s the simple joystick gestures to perform actions. The gameplay hasn’t changed drastically, keeping the timed choices and have character traits update accordingly along the way.

What’s interesting here is them showing more of the so-called “time travel” conceit. At points, you will get arrested by a vision. In the demo, a figure will grasp your character and you will then witness a point in history, like the witch trials that are the focus for this title. Choices do appear, but they don’t seem to change the end result so far, only offering some alternate dialogue.

In this section, we witness Amy being accused, then deemed guilty of witchcraft. It would seem that Amy and Mary can somehow see you, but a clever juxtaposition shows that no one else can, thus your presence further damns Amy’s fate. It’s a little unclear if while you can’t be seen, you can still be heard by the common folk, so a mystery to be answered with more occasions in the full release. You’ll be moving back and forth in time in this manner, and we’ll have to wait to see if there will be more methods.

I’m also curious if you can touch the person who’s experiencing the vision to see it with them. What happens to those outside the vision? What is its range? Does the figure grabbing you represent the person who will be able to see you in the past? A hollow Amy grabs our characters, and she is the one who calls out to us. Will this pattern hold true? More questions to find answers to. The demo also provided access to an equally limited Curator’s Cut, which offered more dialogue, but we’ll see how much more expanded this is in the full release.
A VISION FOR LATER
Due to the nature of the demo, I do not wish to pass too many judgments on the horror factor. It’s not fair, after all. I will fully admit the few jumps that they’ve done, like the first vision, made me scream, which gave way to curiosity once I noticed the other elements in play.
Now you see them…
Now you don’t.
I feel like the camera is more creative in this game, and the ability to freely rotate around your point of view character in more open spaces gives it a “more real” feeling, as you take in the sights of this forgotten town you’ve found yourself in. The visions are especially interesting since it gives me something to look forward to finding out when the game is out. How does it work? Can we change history? The Curator would surely know… I await the answers to my questions.
There’s also this lovely creature.
Also, Taylor is best girl.

Silverwing Bronya in Honkai Impact 3rd Lets You Rain Down Icy Violence On Your Enemies

miHoYo has put out a new preview for the upcoming battlesuit, Silverwing N-Ex Bronya, the grown up version of one of the  original playable valkyries in Honkai Impact 3rd, Bronya.

Silverwing Bronya will be yet another bow character coming to Honkai Impact, with a focus on doing Ice Damage thanks to her Scatter Shield setup. Her basic attack will feature grounded and air variants, and features Ignore Interrupt while reducing her incoming damage. You can switch the variants by tapping her Ult button.

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

Meanwhile, her skill button deploys Deconstruction Barrier, a scatter shield that multiplies the number of shots passing through it. This will be key for Bronya’s DPS, since it also comes with an additional effect- passing shots build up a single charge of her resource, and she gains a new finisher after she gets two charges of said resource. ‘
You can tell the scatter shield is important to her kit, because she also gets it as a reward for doing a perfect dodge- timing your dodge at just the right time will cause her to deploy the scatter shield between her and the last attacked enemy.

Finally, Silverwing Bronya also features a powerful ult, titled Razing Chrome. This massive laser does huge damage over a big area, and also finishes off with Bronya deploying another scatter shield to let you keep up your DPS.
On top of that, she also synergizes well with other ice-type Valkyries. Silverwing N-Ex also has a leader skill, boosting the team’s overall Ranged Ice Damage and Total Damage.
Silverwing N-Ex Bronya will come to Honkai Impact 3rd as part of the 5.4 update, alongside an Expansion Supply to get all the recommended Stigma and gear for her.

The PC version of Dark and Light was developed with Unreal Engine 4, however the mobile version will be powered by Snail Game’s 3rd Generation Flexi Engine, featuring dynamic lights, Unity Ragdoll and other visual technologies. Dark and Light Mobile will still look beautiful nonetheless on our mobile devices, however can our mobile device contain such a massive world MMORPG?

Dark and Light Mobile will have 4 races and 8 different classes to choose from unlike the PC version with only 3 races. Players will be able to choose to join either the light side or the dark side in 9 different regions. There are other game modes like Guild Siege along with other massive PvE content and 40-player boss raid. As seen in the PC version trailers, we will also be getting the flying dragon mounts in the mobile version.
Here are some of the screenshots from 2P:

Both the PC and Mobile version are to be released next year in 2017. However there were no specific dates announced on its release. Snail Games may be too ambitious in releasing both versions simultaneously but if they are able to pull it off, I think it would be really successful. Since the PC version is paid, I wonder if the Mobile version will be paid as well.
