She reportedly yelled obscenities at the Idolmaster composer, which is where he started to forcibly pull her hand, prompting her to run away.

Thankfully, the girl is unharmed, and following a police report Tanaka has been arrested pending investigation into the matter for “Indecent Assault”.
The NHK report mentions that Tanaka had told officers that he found the girl “the type he liked” before following her to the next station, where he cornered her at the bicycle parking lot.
CCTV footage also shows the man following her, and he was arrested on the 24th.
The Idolmaster social media accounts have not commented on the issue following the reports, though it would not be unlikely if Tanaka saw himself removed from the franchise for this.
Similarly, other games that worked with Tanaka such as Uma Musume have also not released a statement on the issue, or if they would be continuing to work with the composer.
Idolmaster is one of the most popular idol games on the market, with Cinderella Girls itself making over 11 million USD in the past month according to AppMagic.

Dabi is an extremely offensive-oriented unit who burns both enemies and even himself. His Plus Ultra Attack deals 700% damage to one enemy with high chance to burn the target and himself for 3 turns.

Tweet to @GamerBraves

His 1st skill hits all enemies with 225% damage with a high chance to burn enemies with Hellfire, medium chance to burn enemies for 3 turns and high chance to burn himself for 3 turns. This skill has a short 4-turn cooldown. Hellfire causes all remaining turns of burn to take effect immediately, then cancels burn. Hellfire can also result in critical damage, providing immense damage potential.
His 2nd skill hits all enemies with 250% damage while reducing their ATK by 15% for 3 turns with a medium chance to burn enemies for 3 turns and high chance to burn himself for 3 turns. This skill has a 5-turn cooldown.
Dabi’s 1st auto skill fills his Plus Ultra Gauge by 20% and increases his crit rate by 20% while he is burned.
His 2nd auto skill increases critical damage by 40% while he is burned. It also reduces the burn damage he takes by 70%.
Overall, he has insane damage potential and appears to be an extremely capable unit both in VE Tower and PvP. While it’s still too early to tell if UR Dabi is a top tier unit My Hero Ultra Impact, he does appear to rank pretty highly overall based on his kit.
As such, if you have the Gems to spare, Dabi is a pretty solid choice to pull for in the upcoming banner.

Days Gone – An interview with David Lee from Days Gone developer, Bend Studio

Days Gone is a much-anticipated action horror game set in a post-apocalyptic open world. The game is coming exclusively for PS4 this April and ahead of its official release, we got a chance to have an interview with the Community Manager of Bend Studio (the developer for Days Gone), David Lee. Read on below for the new details he told us!

The game was first announced during E3 2016, which is about 3 years ago. Comparing then and now, David tells us that the game has improved dramatically and visually especially on the UI. PlayStation has provided a sufficient amount of time and budget for the studio to create the game, and David hopes that everyone will be able to love and enjoy the final product.

Freakers don’t really have consciousness, they are violent and ruthless, the only thing in their mind is “food”. You will be the biggest thing they want to eat, so make sure you take them out whenever you meet them. Also, they are more aggressive and violent at night time (especially during the snow), but this doesn’t mean that they are weak to high-temperature conditions.

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

The Hordes (a group of Freakers) usually migrate together from place to place. You should always aware of their locations because it will be really difficult to escape if you bump into them. However, if you manage to survive through the Horde, you can earn a lot of Freakers’ ears and trade them for currencies to upgrade your camps. You can only collect them one by one though.
There are plenty of ways you can clear a Freaker nest, but the easiest and most effective way would be using Molotov (or anything with fire). When asked about the possibility for enemies like Rippers to move into the cleared Freaker nest (instead of allies), David tells us that Rippers have their own activity area so we don’t have to worry about that. There will be several locations to where the Rippers are, and you will know it once you are aware of that.

We all know that Deacon will lose his favourite bike at the beginning of the game. We wonder will we be able to retrieve it back, David responses us by saying that “play the story and you will know it!”. Also, the game doesn’t require you to make serious decisions, but you can choose to help out other survivors or leave them alone while you are travelling in the open-world. These choices you make will not affect the main storyline.
As the game has a day/night cycle, the resources you can grab in the game will respawn again when a day passes. Some of the rare resources might take a few more days to respawn. For now, the difficulty modes only affect the amount of damage you deal and the amount of damage you take.

There are 3 different skill trees for Days Gone – the Melee, Ranged Combat and Survival. For those who want to scavenge more supplies or make resources collecting easier, you can level up the Survival skill first. While Ranged Combat skills allow you to perform better in ranged combat, for example, you can bring more ammo or have the focus mode. For Melee, you can increase the damage of your melee weapons or repair them so that you can consistently keep it yours. It is up to you to balance the skills and find a perfect space between them.
Using bikes to ride over animals or Freakers will be one of the best things you can do in Days Gone because it is basically a one-shot kill. The bike receives damage, there is no skill to reduce it but you can add more durability of your bike by upgrading its parts. Under the Survival skill tree, there will be a useful “Survival Sense” allowing you to outline enemies from a distance. You can try to lure them over using rocks or other items.

On future plans, we are curious about DLCs that might explain more on the main casts’ back story. According to David, they do have DLCs but he can’t tell us anything yet. However, he ensures that the main story will be informative enough to tell you everything important about the characters. The team will also consider adding multiplayer features if there is a lot of requests from the players.
Depends on how you play, you will get a unique experience in Days Gone. It is a game that you will enjoy replaying. The game is launching on April 26 for PlayStation 4, don’t miss out if you are interested!

Demon’s Souls Review – The Root of All Souls Games

I don’t think you could track a more popular yet niche genre than the Souls-Like. These games are characterized by their learn-by-dying gameplay, with plenty of memes about how controller-smashingly difficult they are, and journalists’ obsession with comparing anything remotely difficult to the genre and its most iconic entry, Dark Souls.

With Demon’s Souls, remake specialists Bluepoint Games have taken it upon themselves to make a faithful ground-up recreation of the Souls game that started it all. Even with a graphical facelift, how does Demon’s Souls hold up? Read on and find out.

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

As with all Souls-likes, the meat of Demon’s Souls is in its gameplay. Bluepoint have made an almost 1:1 experience with the game, making sure it keeps its same slower, methodical pacing that games like Bloodborne moved away from.
That’s not to say it’s dated, however. The remake has added several quality of life features, such as omnidirectional rolling, similar to Dark Souls Remastered. You also have the ability to directly store your items if your inventory is full, meaning no more backtracking to the Nexus and ruining your good runs.

One gripe here is that Demon’s Souls lacks Dark Souls’ iconic Estus Flask. Rather than have an ever-refilling health item, your healing is in the form of consumable grass. This was one of my big gripes in Bloodborne, whereby you’d start getting yourself killed out of some weird paranoia about using up your precious consumables.
After all, god forbid you run out of healing items, and now you’ll have to farm enemies and make your way to a merchant NPC to buy them without the safety of topping off your health when you take an unlucky hit.
One thing I love about the Souls games is their character sheets. It’s intricate and nerdy and absolutely brilliant
The Nitty Gritty of Gameplay
A lot of people would say that the majority of Souls games play the same. There’s health, there’s stamina, and you have to spend one to keep the other from going down. But as the progenitor for the genre, Demon’s Souls is a good glimpse into the earliest ideas.
As  I mentioned earlier, the game is much slower than anyone who’s played the flashier entries like Dark Souls 3 or Bloodborne would expect. A defensive plan is necessary here, since many enemy moves are designed to either be countered or parried, and your stamina can take quite a while to come back if you decide to start on the offensive.

Aggressive Enemies
Some enemies are surprisingly nimble, such as the enemies in the starting area who are capable of doing the Bloodborne “keep-attacking-with-near-limitless-stamina” approach. The most dangerous thing you’ll encounter however is groups of enemies. Just because one of them is in recovery already, doesn’t mean the others won’t take advantage of you being in hitstunned to get more shots in. Archers are especially bad for this, filling you with crossbow bolts and arrows faster than you can say “Anor Londo”.
Of course, like the Souls games, there’s a breadth of ways to play. Aside from melee, there’s also the agile dex builds, which will require you to really master the enemy’s attack patterns if you want to get devastating counterattacks and ripostes for big damage.
There’s also the magic users, AKA this game’s easy mode. Range is a huge asset in this game, moreso in Demon’s Souls than any other Souls-Like because the enemies are that much slower, meaning they’ll have to work harder to run to you. Many enemies are also poorly equipped to resist magic damage, especially those with big bulky armor.

The Worlds of Boletaria
The level design in Demon’s Souls is some of the best I’ve seen in a Souls-Like. Rather than pretend to be a bigger open world like Dark Souls and Dark Souls 2, Demon’s Souls full-on admits the game is designed like a Megaman game.
You have various Archstones, leading you to one of the game’s five main areas. Each area then has three “acts”, with a new checkpoint unlocking upon killing the boss of the preceding act.
I think my favorite thing about this is that you’re very clearly not intended to go through each area all at once. Rather, the game clearly prefers you to take your time, clearing the first act of each area before going through the second acts, et cetera.
It’s a very different feeling from Dark Souls, where it’s designed for you to wander around Lordran and almost stumble into the next area. In a sense, Demon’s Souls feels a lot more focused- even though the game wants you to be touring its many locales constantly.
Despite the overall areas being quite linear, there’s still plenty to do. Since Demon’s Souls is much stingier with its checkpoint placement than later Souls games, a lot of the time you’ll need to go off the main path and start figuring out where the shortcuts are to lead you back to the Archstones.
On top of that, they’ve even managed to squeeze in some optional bosses, though they’re moreso in the vein of just really tough enemies than full on boss fights like the ones in Bloodborne.

Still, these fights are great because they play into the Souls ethos of rewarding you. Demon’s Souls has a bridge segment where you have to outrun a red dragon as it lights the entire bridge on fire. However, having enough arrows means you can pretty reliably whittle down the creature’s health, putting it down for good as it doesn’t respawn when you die and get sent back.
Stuff like this is great because there’s very rarely ever such thing as wasted effort. Maybe the payoff won’t be as great as you thought, but you’ll never make things worse for you.

Bossfights
Demon’s Souls has some of the most unique bossfights in Souls’ history, but that’s not always a good thing. The design philosophy seems very much built around the concept of puzzles- many bosses have a gaping exploit, and its up to you to figure it out.
While this is a great idea on paper (Shadow of the Colossus takes this to the extreme, after all), it suffers from some pretty obtuse feedback.
One of the best examples of this is an early boss, the Adjudicator. It’s whole gimmick is that your weapon deflects off its body any time you try to use it, unless you attack its weak spot, a blade jutting out of its gut.
Your only feedback for doing this isn’t that you start doing damage to the boss- instead, you get the blood effect, while the health bar remains stagnant.
It’s not like later Souls games didn’t adopt the weakspot-based boss. Dark Souls 3 has the Curse Rotted Greatwood, which is by and large the same mechanics, only with additional enemies running around. The problem is that if you’re a panicked new player who’d just sprinted here from the first Archstone, it’s quite a tall order to have players look for a visual effect when they’re probably going to be staring down the health bar.
It’s not an overused bottle of body spray wafting off my character, it’s the stench of my own failure as I basically spent 90% of my playtime in Soul Form
That Souls-Like Transparency
Of course, being a Souls game, Demon’s Souls is as straightforward with you as a Used Car Salesman trying to get rid of a Beetle with 4 flats and a body in the trunk. The game has plenty of systems that it barely explains, even moreso than later Souls games.
One of these is your Soul Form, which would later go on to become hollowing in Dark Souls. As you are now, you have a body, yes? When you die, that body drops dead but you can go on as a spirit that respawns at the archstone. In Spirit Form, you lose half your health, and no longer have the ability to summon help from other players, or in turn be invaded by them.
It’s not that hard to explain once you’ve played any other Souls game, but new players should take advantage of the 11 years since the release of the original Demon’s Souls to consult a wiki whenever they can.
The game gets super obtuse with its most unique mechanic, Tendency. With World Tendency, dying to enemies and the like shifts your game towards either black or white tendency, with Black offering a harder challenge and more rewards, vs White giving an easier fight but reduced loot drops.
It’s a great system, but once again- consult a wiki if you want to use this to your advantage. There’s also Character Tendency, which applies to the game’s multiplayer: Doing “evil” things like invading other players will move your tendency towards black, while helping others will move it towards white.

A Fresh Coat of Paint
Now, Demon’s Souls is a launch title for the PS5, which continues to baffle me considering Souls games permanent residence in the niches of gaming. That being said, the launch-window status means it takes pride in showing off many of the features of the PS5, especially since it has no last-gen release.
The models all look amazing, with great environmental effects like rain giving the game a very atmospheric feel. It also loads near-instantly, allowing you to warp between all the game’s areas without having time to make a cup of tea in between them. It’s a great feature, thanks to the PS5’s SSD. I legitimately hope minimized loading screens becomes a standard for future Souls-likes going forward, especially if they’re planning on remastering any of the back catalogue. The grind becomes way less disheartening when you’re not staring at your reflection from a black screen, reading about Alva the Wayfarer and his forbidden bootycall for the 50th time because you got mauled by a dog.

There’s a lot of moments where you can tell Bluepoint Games was directed to flex as brazenly as possible, such as with the game’s unique visceral attack animations. In previous souls games, many weapons would have similar animations for counterattacks or backstabs. Here, they’re specific to each weapon class, with one-handed clubs having a particularly brutal finisher involving busting a dude’s kneecaps then getting his head while he tries to get back up.
There’s also the game’s liberal use of particle effects, which look gorgeous but can often get tedious. I get that I’m on fire, but sometimes the particles are so dense that they actually end up blocking your field of vision.
All in all though, Demon’s Souls has a lot of great ways to show off the PS5, and it does so without being a game with an abundance of cliffs to stand over and stare at.

Closing Thoughts
By virtue of being a near 1:1 remake of the most niche Souls games, there’s a lot to love with Demon’s Souls. It’s an engaging RPG that looks amazing thanks to the facelift by Bluepoint Games, and is definitely a must pick for those of us who got into the Souls genre during the height of their popularity, rather than at the start.
While it could easily have been argued that Bluepoint should have changed the game where they could have, I personally think the 1:1 approach is better- those of us who couldn’t get into a game because of its dated graphics have an unadulterated way to enjoy the game, at worst it just has a better polycount and loading times.
It’s also a great addition to Bluepoint’s scorecard, having already knocked it out of the park with their Shadow of the Colossus remake. Regardless, everyone wins with this remake: Newer fans get to see where it all started, and a console generation lacking in exclusives suddenly gets a niche pick, rapidly growing its install base.

Pros
Cons

Engaging Level Design
Lots of obtuse systems

From PlayStation Studios and Bluepoint Games comes a remake of the PlayStation classic, Demon’s Souls. Entirely rebuilt from the ground up and masterfully enhanced, this remake introduces the horrors of a fog-laden, dark fantasy land to a whole new generation of gamers. Those who’ve faced its trials and tribulations before, can once again challenge the darkness in stunning visual quality and incredible performance.
In his quest for power, the 12th King of Boletaria, King Allant channelled the ancient Soul Arts, awakening a demon from the dawn of time itself, The Old One.
With the summoning of The Old One, a colorless fog swept across the land, unleashing nightmarish creatures that hungered for human souls. Those whose souls were stripped from them, lost their minds – left only with the desire to attack the sane that remained.

Now, Boletaria is cut off from the outside world, and the knights who dare penetrate the deep fog to free the land from its plight, are never seen again. As a lone warrior who has braved the baneful fog, you must face the hardest of challenges to earn the title “Slayer of Demons” and send The Old One back to its slumber.

NieR Automata Cheatcode Discovered That Lets You Skip The Whole Game

After a whopping three years, a hardworking fan has discovered a NieR Automata cheatcode that lets players skip the entire game, straight to the final decision.

I found a cheat code in NieR Automata that allows you to skip to the last ending immediately after killing the first boss and unlock the bonus modes. I'll do a full video soon. It's not a glitch, it's an actual cheat code hard-coded into the engine. @yokotaro pic.twitter.com/FtuNPovq6F

— Lance McDonald (@manfightdragon) January 3, 2021

Lance Mcdonald says he discovered the NieR Automata cheatcode via “hundreds of hours of reverse engineering”.

After beating the game’s first boss, he appears to go to some barrels, inputting a code consisting of both direction inputs as well as face buttons. After inputting the sequence, the screen fades to black, taking you to the final decision of the game.
McDonald says he’s uploading a video soon to show in greater detail how the cheatcode works, though the snippet on twitter is proof that it exists.
Yoko Taro had long teased that there was a secret in the game that hadn’t been discovered yet. He’s since come out with a cryptic tweet, quote-retweeting McDonald’s attempt with the caption “3 Years 10 Months”, probably alluding to how long the cheatcode went unnoticed.
It should be stressed that this is a straight-up cheatcode, and not an exploit like many speedrunners are used to doing in games. The difference being that while many exploits are a result of the game resolving anomalies in the code, this is an intended effect of keying in the code, similar to Doom’s IDDQD or Warcraft’s Thereisnospoon codes.
The cheatcode also fits in with NieR: Automata’s quirky mechanics. Reaching the game’s final route allows you to straight up buy achievements with in-game money, letting you get the Platinum Trophy by simply grinding for money.

Twin Mirror has Sam using a Mind Palace, which allows him to retreat into his psyche and relive past events, helping players figure out what to do next. They’ll also have a Double, which is a more empathetic version of Sam, to see how characters would react based on their choices.
According to Dontnod Entertainment, Sam’s analytical skills are meant to act as a double-edged sword, as he comes off as cold and can hurt the people around him.
Sam also spends a lot of the game talking to a therapist in his head, trying to get him to drop the conspiracy theories, though with limited success if the trailer is anything to go by.

E3 2020 has been cancelled?

Joining a string of events getting cancelled and/or postponed, both major and minor, will be E3 2020. Via Ars Technica, multiple sources familiar with the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) have said the annual Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) will soon be cancelled. Digital Devolver posted an ominous tweet about cancelling E3 flights and hotels, to further fuel the fire. E3 2020 would be at the Los Angeles Convention Center for three days in early June, as with previous years, if the cancellation doesn’t come to pass.

Cancel your E3 flights and hotels, y’all.

— Devolver Digital (@devolverdigital) March 11, 2020

An announcement about the event was supposedly meant to be released today, with whispers floating around that it would be confirmed within 24 hours. At time of writing, ESA representatives did not respond to Ars Technica about the state of E3. Would they be moving to a completely different venue, postponing the event, or be having it a virtual, live-streaming event? We’d be finding out soon enough, surely.

E3 2020 was originally stated to move forward, with a “continued plan for a safe and successful E3, while monitoring and evaluating potential impacts on events held in Los Angeles”. For now, it might be safe to assume that despite that, E3 2020 might be cancelled after all with mounting coronavirus concerns even with earlier assurances.
Sony had already long planned for a no-show at this year’s E3 despite the Playstation 5 expected holiday 2020. At this rate, no one else would be at the event either.

Komori Life to be available 25 March

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

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

Life and farming simulation game Komori Life is expected to be available on 25 March. It would seem that you can choose to play as either a student or an office worker, but regardless, they will be returning to their rural village to start a new, self-sufficient life. The Taiwanese version of the game will have Japanese voiceover.

These kinds of sim games don’t necessarily have “main” goals, but there is one in Komori Life. More functions will gradually open up to you as you progress. Despite that, it’s not mandatory, so you can still go on your merry way with the few things you have, like farming, and eventually, you’d be able to unlock those other things too.

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

Within the game is a “diary”, which works the same way as an achievement system or missions/goals. Do things like crafting furniture for the first time, accepting requests from villagers, raising pets and so forth. While you’re going along with the “main” quest, if you find yourself at a loss of things to do, then just look through the diary to find something!

Within your compound, farm, fish, cook, and make furniture or props. Arrange the furniture as you see fit! Plant and grow those crops to sell for money, which in turn you use to buy clothes, more furniture and whatever else you need.
Cooking in this game is done similarly to “Cooking Mama”, so practice that (not really). As you get more proficient, you can keep more animals, from cats, to chickens, cows and other creatures. The cats pretty much work like how you might expect: feed and walk/play with them, with the option to even dress your cat in clothes you can buy.
You’d be able to interact with other characters, of course, with the main village being where you buy all your things. There’s also a forest area where you can explore.

The forest would probably be one of the most important areas for players, where you can chop wood, mine and fish. There’ll be several areas for you to walk through, with convenient waypoints as well. However,  you do need to go through the area at least once if you want to teleport back. Fishing can feel like a rhythm game, while hunting is similar to FPS controls.
Some areas will require specific equipment to explore, or your energy will be sapped quickly. You can mitigate this through said equipment.

Energy is capped at 300 points, which will recover over time. Most meaningful actions will require this energy. This isn’t unusual, since typical sim games also have an energy bar. The game itself is pretty slow paced, so take it easy.

4GamerTW recommends players to complete requests and fishing to make money, especially with the latter giving you the opportunity to catch high-value fish that can give higher returns than farming.

If you’ve been looking for a little life farming sim, then you can try out Komori Life.

Lineage II M Cinematic Trailer Revealed!

Lineage II M, the upcoming game by NCsoft has launched an epic cinematic trailer in South Korea. The game that is developed with Unreal Engine 4 will be optimized for most high-end mobile devices like the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S9. Sadly to say, the developers are not going to optimize the game for older devices.

While Lineage II M is aiming to be the next top mobile MMORPG with an open seamless world, the developers hope to create a “one world” concept which allows all players to be in a single channel. Though with the recent release of Netmarble’s Lineage II: Revolution, Lineage II M is a different game entirely and is not a reinterpreted lore of the Lineage II IP or even the PC version. This means that players will gain new experiences from the upcoming title.

NIKKE PC Requirements Released, Alongside Cross Save Announcements

In a post on their website, they revealed both the minimum and recommended requirements for NIKKE on PC.

Overall the PC version doesn’t look overly resource intensive, being usable by mid-range PCs.
Minimum PC Specs

OS: Windows 7 64 bit
Processor: Intel Core i3 or similar
Memory: 8 GB
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti
DirectX：Version 11
Minimum Storage Space: 10 GB

It should be noted that both the minimum and recommended requirements don’t specify which generation of processors are being used, but its safe to assume it’ll be the latest generation for them.

The minimum specs are fairly modest, being able to run on a lot of older machines, and considering its a PC port of a mobile game, you’d expect about as much.
Recommended PC Specs

OS: Windows 10 64 bit
Processor: Intel Core i5
Memory: 8 GB
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER / GTX 1650
DirectX：Version 11
Recommended Storage Space: 20 GB

Unclear information about the CPU aside, the recommended settings appear to be tuned to most mid-range PCs. The extra storage space is likely for higher resolution textures, as well as things like voice data for all the cutscenes.
PC Version Features

The team also answered more questions about what exactly the PC version would entail in the blog post, most notably confirming that you’d be able to move your saves between the mobile and PC versions.
“Character information is fully synced across platforms. The characters, progress, resources, and purchases on any platform will be shared across all the other platforms. However, you will only be able to play with other players on PC, iOS, and Android while on the same server. (As there are many servers available across regions, character information will not be shared between servers.)”, the blog post reads.
Unfortunately the blog post does not include information on a release date, or if the game would be coming to Steam vs having a standalone client.

Bandai Spirits took over toy company Banpresto

Banpresto, the company who developed the Super Robot Wars series is now officially gone. Bandai Namco’s toy and hobby subsidiary, Bandai Spirits has completely taken over all rights and duties from the company as revealed on an announcement published on Kanpō.

Banpresto is a genuinely well-known developer company among Asia and Japan players. Other than the famous Super Robot Wars series, the company also brought us plenty of hit titles including Ar tonelico (PS2) and Ultraman Fighting Evolution. The company became a subsidiary of Bandai Namco since 2006. A few years passed by, and now it has fully dissolved with Bandai Namco.

Granblue Fantasy: The case of the Summer Fortune lottery

It’s been overnight since Granblue Fantasy released results for its Summer Fortune lottery tickets, and it has not been the prettiest sight. To understand the whole issue, let’s start from the beginning.

SUMMER FORTUNE?
Granblue Fantasy started their summer campaign bonuses, one of them being the Summer Fortune cards. Throughout the campaign’s duration, you would get a card each day with three random numbers printed on it.

Related Posts

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

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

A card prior to the announcements.
Winning numbers were announced 16 August 2021, 19:00 JST. If you matched the numbers listed, you were then eligible for prizes, from Tier 1 to Tier 4. In this case, to win a Tier 4 prize, your card needed to end in either a 5 or a 8.
The released results.
The game also has a clause where the last number on a card can be from 0 to 9, and not repeating until all have been drawn. Despite this, many have reported that they didn’t even get a single Tier 4 prize. For what its worth, the game also gave out 10,000 crystals – equivalent to just over 30 draws – when the results were released.

The clause.
THE PRIZES
Naturally, a lot of people were especially excited because of the prizes up for grabs. Tier 4 items could be considered mostly negligible, with Tier 3 and above being the greater jackpots. Tier 3 prizes had a selection of weapons of limited units, as well as summons you cannot ordinarily “spark” or claim through regular paid selection tickets. Tier 2 prizes were then limited seasonal units or summons where applicable, including the yearly zodiacs, upgrades for a powerful weapon or enough currency for a “spark”. Tier 1 prizes are ordinarily extremely expensive weapons, or a special ticket that allowed you a selection of anything in the current gacha pool.
For the uninitiated, a “spark” is where you draw 300 times and select a guaranteed item from a featured selection. Naturally, many a tweet has sprung forth from the event.
Fate Grand/Order has long been made fun of when comparing it to Granblue Fantasy.
THE FALLOUT
Saying that many people are having extremely strong feelings is probably putting it lightly. This hashtag ( #グラブル引退) has been dedicated to the post-announcement results. Players have been publicizing trashing their inventory, and / or announcing they were quitting the game. The items they are discarding typically involves a lot of dedicated time, or money. Some people have also been posting a screenshot of CyberAgent’s stock prices falling, of which Cygames is a subsidiary.

It should be noted that the stock prices started falling before the Granblue announcements, though of course, people would be focusing on the nosedive of 16 August.
WHAT HAPPENS NOW?
Well, until a statement has been released, we won’t know how Cygames might try to smooth things over. The various cast or staff around the game haven’t been afforded amazing luck either, so many players are in the same boat.
via the unofficial Granblue EN
It might have been better if the scratch cards were used instead. Even if the prize you got wasn’t the most attractive, they did at least guarantee a prize. It seems extreme to be trashing your inventory when you could simply quit the game, but emotional responses are just that: they don’t have to be rational or make sense.

The Summer Fortune campaign may be over, but there’s still time yet in the overall Granblue summer campaign. Let’s see where this ends up.
UPDATED 17 AUGUST 2021, 21:15 JST: Everyone will receive a free Tier 3 prize.

Lego Brawls Review – How You Brawlin’ Fellow Kids

Related Posts

Pokemon Sleep Now Available In Malaysia

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

Lego Brawls should be pretty self-explanatory from its name: a brawler / arena fighter in the vein of Super Smash Bros. It does have things that hold it back, so we might as well just get right into it.

CLIP-ON LEGO
Blinging out is part and parcel of life, and it’s no different in this game. You start off with a standard preset for the tutorial, then get unleashed into the meat of customization. As a LEGO figure, you can pretty much just change every piece that you’re allowed to. That said, there will be some pieces that just won’t fit seamlessly due to missing additional details.

Once that‘s done, it’s time to figure out the loadout. I only know fashion, not meta, especially not when I’ve just started in the game. Regardless, choices must be made for my main weapon, power ups, and a mount (!). Power ups are obtainable from breaking shiny cubes in the stage, while the mount can be used to ram enemies for massive damage while offering some protection.

The customization is very flexible, so you can swap out anything you like if you figure something doesn’t click with you. All of them seem viable except the Jetpack, so there’s that. The user interface could stand to be improved, since all these options can be overwhelming.
For actual settings themselves:

No control remapping on PS5
Cross-play options can be limited to only your platform
Wiping progression
A Block feature

Pretty limited, but it is what it is.
PLAYING WITH LEGO
Game mode wise, there’s… not much. The two main ones are Brawl and Party: Brawl is where you can play against bots offline which contributes to your progression to unlock cosmetics, then Party for Local Multiplayer for up to 4 players with the Online mode available in Versus and Co-op modes.

You’ll find the typical arena fighter experience through Free-for-Brawl while Co-Op is more to a “capture a point” battle. While the modes themselves are fun, the actual pacing is highly questionable. Matches feel like they’re over in a blink of an eye, leaving barely any room for potential comebacks. You could pretty much breeze through every single map and mode in under an hour. Think about it: you’re getting into the groove of the game, and then it’s over.

Free-for-Brawl is an option for Co-Op mode, though it’s unlikely you could get that if you’re not with friends. Versus mode also seems to be scuffed, locking me into the character screen and only giving the option to share an Invite Code. At least the matchmaking is quick and there’s Cross-Play support.

THROWING LEGO HANDS
I think you know what to expect from an arena fighter / brawler, but even by those standards, LEGO Brawls is far too simplistic. I’m not the one going to be executing those fancy combos, but the more skilled don’t even have the option to with only standard attacks, dash attacks and a ground slam for your core moves.
A simple moveset is one thing, controls is another. Cancelling commands or even executing them doesn’t flow that well. If nothing else, abusing the dash move seems to be the way to go to since you can use it to ram into enemies or zip across the arena. Your skill level can be complemented with the power-ups too.

Stages you get let loose in are styled after some pretty iconic series including Ninjago, Jurassic Park, and more. The layouts are pretty simple, with the spice being the unique arena gimmicks thanks to power-ups that are obtained only to specific stages: summoning dinosaurs at the Jurassic Park, grabbing Poseidon’s Trident to control a Hydra… the power-ups are definitely ones to contest for.
Progression comes from first choosing a theme based on a property in the LEGO universe. Regardless of outcome, matches will earn you Studs to unlock items from your chosen theme, akin to a Battle Pass. While the progression itself is pretty fast, being forced to “master” each Brawler before you get to unlock another one just doesn’t feel great.

PACKING UP
On its own, LEGO Brawls isn’t Bad. However, it is lacking in many places with not much content, being too simplistic with controls being not as responsive as I’d like, and the forced progression. The saving grace is the customization, which I don’t think is saying much when that isn’t the primary selling point of this game. While I’d be fine with this for a mobile release, not adding more to a full-fledged console version feels like a missed opportunity.
It would make for a pretty okay brawler for the younger ones, at least.

                                        PROS

                                        CONS

                                        Great swathe of unlockable customization options

                                        Far too simplistic both mechanically and content-wise

                                        Gimmicks make each stage more fun to play around

Bandai Namco launches Ultra Kaiju Battle Breeder for smartphones

After much deliberation, Bandai Namco finally launched their previously announced Ultraman Kaiju-themed game, Ultra Kaiju Battle Breeder for Android smartphones first. The iOS version will follow suit on a later date.

We are looking at a turn-based strategy game where players are granted the opportunity of building teams consisting of different Kaiju from various Ultraman series. Subsequently, you will be able to field said monsters for combat.

Unlike other mobage, Ultra Kaiju Battle Breeder does not feature a gacha system of any sort. Instead, players are required to clear missions and farm special stages in order to get new Kaiju and earn shards to strengthen them further. As all the pre-registration milestones for the game have been reached, players will be rewarded accordingly with all early bird goodies.

It is definitely interesting that some attention is being paid to the least appreciated part of the Ultraman series, which are the monsters themselves. No matter how good the Ultraman in question is, they are only as good as the monster that they face off.
