Back 4 Blood > Left 4 Dead 2

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Back 4 Blood

Back 4 Blood is a cooperative First Person shooter zombie game developed by ‘Turtle Rock Studios‘ and published by ‘Warner Bros Games‘. Back 4 Blood is an excellent game but got unfairly bashed by the ignorant gaming community. Another victim of this like the Callisto Protocol. X35 Earthwalker did a whole podcast episode talking about Back 4 Blood. So check that out as well. Back 4 Blood is definitely better than Left 4 Dead 2. Let’s take a look.

Let’s not make this long as there’s a whole podcast on this as well. For starters Left 4 Dead 2 was released in 2009. An old game like that is not beating a new game like Back 4 Blood. The huge gap in time means a gap in technology and software. So it’s obvious that Back 4 Blood has superior graphics and visuals. The levels look much better as well. The character designs are more detailed. That’s the obvious stuff.

X35 Earthwalker Back 4 Blood

Left 4 Dead 2 has 4 characters and only one of them is actually memorable. Back 4 Blood has 8 characters right off the bat but an additional 4 as additional content. So a total of 12 characters. So Back 4 Blood has 3 times more characters. More options. What’s also better is that Back 4 Blood’s characters have abilities. Each character has an effect for themselves and then a buff for their team. So for example a character might have a maximum stamina boost for themself but then grants faster stamina regeneration for the whole team. So yeah, remember that there’s 12 of them.

Next off course is the ridden… the zombies/infected. There’s more threats and ridden variety than what you have in Left 4 Dead 2. Left 4 Dead 2 has regular zombies, jockey, smoker, spitter, boomer, charger, hunter, tank and witch. Each of course do their own thing. For example the tank is the biggest, strongest and most dangerous. Witch only attacks with lethal strikes when started or disturbed by players. Jockey likes to hop on players to incapacitate players and render them useless. Smoker tries to kidnap players with its long tongue. Charger believes in charging you down to pin you and do big damage.

X35 Earthwalker Back 4 Blood

In Back 4 Blood you have: regular ridden, snitcher, Tallboy, Reeker, Stinger, shredder, ripper, sentinel, urchin and these have variants too and ones that have armour too, making them even more. For example there’s three types of sentinels which each have different annoying attacks like an actual swarm and the other lobs like fire bombs. The Tank is like the boss enemy of Left 4 Dead 2 but not an actual boss. Back 4 Blood actually has bosses with health bars, so another step up over Left 4 Dead 2. There’s currently 3 bosses at least that you can encounter even in a level as a surprise guest. Ogre, Hag and Berserker. Each one is a major problem. Ogre is the largest thing ever and can hurl massive boulder like projectiles. Hag is basically the superior witch as when startled it chases the player down and proper chomps down on them. Than can escape by digging into the ground. The Berserker is armoured up and leaps great distances to slam and throw players around. Basically a discount Berserker from Gears of War. So way more threats and enemies in Back 4 Blood.

Next up are weapons. There’s way more weapons in Back 4 Blood. More ranged weapons, more melee weapons, more throwable weapons. M4, M16, MP5, UMP45, Ak-47, RPK and way more rifles and guns of different types too. Shotguns, snipers and rifles like the M1. So whatever is your style you can do it. Even a sawed off shotgun. There’s bow and arrows with the arrows being infinite. Melee weapons there’s spiked baseball bats, axe, machete and even wolverine claws. There’s Molotov, pipe bombs (of course), grenades, smoke grenade, flash bang and let’s just say green glow substance to attract ridden to it. There’s also support items too like a stun gun to free yourself from being incapacitated by a special ridden that grabs you. We will say that the pipe bomb in Left 4 Dead 2 has a much better explosion than Back 4 Blood.

X35 Earthwalker Back 4 Blood

Another big advantage Back 4 Blood has are the weapon attachments. Both have them but Back 4 Blood has much more and deeper mechanics concerning it. Nozzle, magazine/bullets, scope and stock. The one you equip will have different parts and there’s different grades to the parts from common all the way to legendary. Even the melee weapons have attachments. Giving damage resistance, increased damage, melee speed, movement speed and more. So clearly Back 4 Blood has more mechanics and deeper than Left 4 Dead 2. Back 4 Blood even has a full weapons range for basically every weapon you can find in the game. Pick em up, try em out. Every throwable and attachment is there too. So you can get a feel for them, see the difference the attachments make and see the exact damage with the targets. There’s even a flamethrower!!! And it’s mad strong. 

X35 Earthwalker Back 4 Blood

The last major factor that puts Back 4 Blood way above Left 4 Dead 2 is the card system. These cards completely change the game. Use these cards to create builds. Some builds increase your damage with a certain weapon. Some increase your health. Others gave increased damage resistance. Some are a trade like -5% health but gain 40% stamina. When you unlock the strongest cards you can make yourself ridiculously strong. X35 Earthwalker the one true Earthwalker, the legendary soldier himself has multiple builds and he is over powered. There’s a melee build where it’s basically impossible for him to die while fighting. He has a mighty shooting build where he never needs to reload and does massive damage with guns.  

Back 4 Blood has received additional content so more things have arrived. There’s lots happening and when done on some of the hardest difficulties, things can get insane and intense. Left 4 Dead 2 is very easy. Easy game. Your melee attack is over powered. Back 4 Blood is a much harder game and requires far more strategy and good gameplay to beat, instead of spamming melee. This isn’t everything that Back 4 Blood does better than Left 4 Dead 2 but it’s already really clear which game is better. X35 Earthwalker is never wrong. Back 4 Blood may be better than Left 4 Dead 2 but neither are own the level off… the ‘Earth Walk!

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. A lot.

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker The Texas Chain Saw Massacre

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is a team based horror game developed by ‘Sumo Nottingham‘ and published by ‘Gun Interactive‘. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre came out already and it’s available on Xbox Series X, Xbox One, PS5, PS4 and pc. X35 Earthwalker has decided to look into this game and it’s got his attention. So here are some thoughts from X35 Earthwalker on The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Let’s take a look.

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre has the murderous Leather face family squaring up with the survivors. The survivors have to escape the house, facility or wherever they are held captive while the evil family tries to kill them. Simple. Now straight away players will make a comparison to ‘Dead by Daylight’. Similar but very clear differences for sure. Now straight up, X35 Earthwalker never cared for Dead by Daylight. We know about Dead by Daylight, the hunting villains, the traps and mechanics but never played and never wanted to. We can already confirm that The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is a better game than Dead by Daylight. Feed grandpa…

X35 Earthwalker The Texas Chain Saw Massacre

What’s sad is that when a new game comes in and even sort off steps on another established games territory, the fanbase of the established game at dumb and hate the new game. The left 4 dead 2 fans attacked Back 4 Blood. Back 4 Blood is better than Left 4 dead 2. So far it looks like The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is having a good time and bringing in lots of new players to this genre of gaming. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre has potential to do even more like locations and events. Feed grandpa?

From what we have seen so far it definitely looks like things are heavily in the favour of the killer family. They seem much stronger right now. We will say that we don’t know about the skill trees for each character. We know how it works, like increasing the savagery of leather face to do more damage for example but not the exact buffs it gives, unlocks and perks down the line and therefore the synergy and builds you can make. Who knows… maybe a focused powerful build can make Leland A survivor) bully the killers and tilt the whole favour to the victims. When you compare what these characters can do and the objective, it gets crazy. In Dead by daylight there’s one killer but in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre… there’s multiple. Feed grampa!

X35 Earthwalker The Texas Chain Saw Massacre

Just Sissy alone is a game changer. She can relentlessly chase down the victims and place the biggest amount of stress and pressure on survivors. She can go through gaps and crawl spaces too. Meaning the survivors are never safe. Then she’s poisoning people on top. You can hide by a gap, then blow poison in that area as a victim comes through and slash them up… easy kill. The hitch hiker is also chasing people down and going through certain spots too. He then set traps at crucial locations to slow you down. The cook is pad locking certain doors and locking things down. Less options for the survivors… and he has super hearing. Johnny is out here with powerful consecutive attacks and track players down to their almost exact location. Then big bad but stupid leather face who’s out here destroying obstacles and creating paths for his family. It’s good that his chainsaw alerts victims to where he is. Feed grandpa?!

The survivors have sound detection, faster unlocks, a shoulder bash, pain tolerance basically and a big second wind for sprinting. Of course the skill tree will change things for sure but it’s definitely one sided by the looks of it. Now off course there are factors like communication skills and team work, the obstacles in the map themselves and that there’s multiple escape routes. We even saw players who escaped the map  in a. matter of minutes. Like an insanely fast escape. Obviously since players will now be aware of this and the fuses, skilful family members will be aware and ready to stop that from happening. We definitely need to see more amazing gameplay from the survivors instead of cheap tactics that only work temporarily of the ignorance of murderer players. Feed grandpa()

X35 Earthwalker The Texas Chain Saw Massacre

This will lead to mind games between both sides and we already have advanced tactics in mind that we haven’t seen players do. Makes sense as X35 Earthwalker is the smartest person on the planet. Some youtubers say foolish things, when asked which side is stronger, like “it depends on the team”. That a response for the lazy and ignorant. No one wants such a lame answer. Currently the family is clearly stronger. The only time they have a hard time or lose is when they mess up or have a new player who doesn’t know much about the game. Feed grandpa-

Fine we will address grandpa. You guys keep bringing it up. Grandpa is the strongest member of the murder family. He makes things even more in the families favour. Get him activated as soon as possible! He will automatically slow down the victims as they have to stay still or spend time trying to take grandpa out. At max level which isn’t that hard to do, he completely destroys the victims by revealing them completely whether they are staying still for not. If the victims want to take too long and play hide and seek, then work on grandpa and they will regret it. Grandpa probably use to be the beast titan back in the day. Just listen to that howl/scream/roar. People sissy be collecting blood real easy. Too man players and youtubers forget to top grandpa up. Humph… amateurs.

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre does have very graphic stuff happening which is needed. We like the different executions of the murder family. From the sadistic and laughing while killing, to the carefully placed slices and just straight up brutal kills with chainsaw. Many people like this game for a reason. The dumbest player we’ve ever seen with the worst gameplay ever was a dude named ltg. He was the worst victim player we ever saw. Now actually good players make the game fun and interesting to watch. Giving more of an adventure feel. We definitely look forward to seeing more of this game. X35 Earthwalker definitely expects more to come. Now The Texas Chain Saw Massacre may have a killer family but they wouldn’t stand a chance against… the ‘Earth walk!’

Starfield. Some thoughts

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Starfield

Starfield is the Open Universe Role Playing Game developed by ‘Bethesda Game Studios‘ and published by ‘Bethesda Softworks‘. Starfield is said to be coming out the 6th of September 2023 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and pc. X35 Earthwalker is the number one gamer in the world and he has some thoughts on Starfield. Starfield out here trying to be the game of the decade. Let’s take a look.

Starfield is being talked about the most. For a good reason. Bethesda has the biggest job right now with lots of pressure. Everyone is watching this game. Xbox players want this game to be the best thing ever while playstation fans want it to fail so hard. There’s literally a countdown for the release of Starfield on twitter. There’s so much attention and eyes and hype that it has to be good. Starfield needs to be more than Good. It needs to be the best game currently. X35 Earthwalker wants Starfield to be excellent and we are confident it will be.

X35 Earthwalker Starfield

Starfield can best be described as No Man’s Sky’ but more adventure focused, actual combat and less building… really. No Man’s Sky started off good and through patches and updates became a fantastic game and certainly one of a kind. Starfield is now the second like this. Many planets, open universe, space travel, future set, weapons and more. Games like this are easy to get right and make into fantastic adventures. Starfield is set in the year 2330 AD. So much has happened from going to mars, colonisation, space agencies, artifact, united colonies, constellation, wars and more. Quite a lot of lore already and the game isn’t out yet.

We definitely hope that Starfield has actual good combat. Relaxation exploration games do very well the atmosphere and their purpose of a chill time. Those games don’t have enemies and combat. Starfield has combat and threats. So the combat and actual good enemies matter here. That was something No Man’s Sky lacked at first. We need actual weapons and options. We need to see a variety of enemies. We need tons of aliens and in huge variety. If there’s going to be many planets then there needs to be many environments and therefore different ecosystems and therefore different enemies.s Not just reused threats. 

X35 Earthwalker Starfield

The only two games we see as close to Starfield either in scale or type of game are No Man’s Sky off course and Elden Ring. Elden Ring impressed people with not only with the gameplay but the sheer size of the game and deep lore. There’s so much to do that you could argue there’s too much (we don’t argue that). Starfield has the room to be as big as No Man’s Sky and lore deep like Elden Ring. Massive space games have all the room and potential in the world. Do not mess this up. Get creative. 

We wonder how many vehicles there will be. We wonder what the forms of travel and transportations will be available in the world. A game of this size does need fast travel at least on a planetary level. Whether it’s through built or activated transporters, they need to have something. The ability to get around quick. We do like the mobility in the game thanks to the jet pack. So vertical travel and exploration is a big deal.

The gameplay definitely reminds us of Outriders with No Man’s Sky. You can sprint up and melee enemies, different weapon types and descend upon your foes. There’s nice amount of details presented about the planets. The graphical details are looking real good too. We have many thoughts about Starfield and noticed some things that the developers need to take a look at. Starfield already looks good but we are expecting more. Bethesda needs to go all out here. They would do way better if they had X35 Earthwalker on board or leading them. Now Starfield may have over 1000 planets but that universe is so small compared to… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Hello Engineer: Scrap Machines Constructor

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Hello Engineer

Hello Engineer: Scrap Machines Constructor is a multiplayer construction game developed and published by ‘tinyBuild‘. Hello Engineer is said to be coming out the 17th of August 2023 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. It’s already on Stadia. Hello Engineer is out here trying to build something big. X35 Earthwalker is greatest inventor ever. Let’s take a look.

Hello Engineer: Scrap Machines Constructor is all about players doing lots of construction and building of vehicles and other machinery. All this to overcome obstacles and challenges in an amusement park. Your neighbor, who is described as “creepy” is the antagonist. He also has evil bots. So even the neighbour wants to be Doctor Eggman. That’s the story basically.

X35 Earthwalker Hello Engineer

So this is what Hello Engineer: Scrap Machines Constructor brings to the table. You still have the neighbour, he’s still being creepy and there’s aspects of puzzles. You got to understand what’s going on, come up with a solution and it has to be done through your construction. We do like the change of genre and direction as it’s good to try new things and add more flavours to the meal.

X35 Earthwalker Hello Engineer

We checked out some Hello Engineer: Scrap Machines Constructor gameplay and it’s what we expected. Hello Neighbor style for sure and graphics. There’s gaps and jumps to make. There’s ramps and even what looks like a full race course section. You can build a lot of things. The size, the Fram, the shape, the tire types and size of course. You can even construct things that fly. Yeah, as in you got flames coming out to propel something into the air sort of like a rocket.

Overall Hello Engineer: Scrap Machines Constructor looks like a good game. If you like the Hello neighbor universe or maybe the neighbor himself then you shouldn’t have much of a problem. If you are creative and like Minecraft then you should be good too. The graphics are good for the style. Seems to be a good amount of creativity. The developers ‘tinyBuild’ have done a good job by the looks of it. We at X35 Earthwalker are not interested in this game but will have to hear what happens. Now Hello Engineer: Scrap Machines Constructor may have rocket vehicles but those can’t reach the heights of… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Quantum: Recharged. Wrap Em

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Quantum recharged

Quantum: Recharged is an arcade, retro style game developed by ‘SneakyBox‘ and published by ‘Atari‘. Quantum: Recharged is said to be coming out the 17th of August 2023 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Atari VCS, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. It’s good to see a re-release of an old game and modernised. X35 Earthwalker will see how interesting this is. Let’s take a look.

Quantum: Recharged has a very simple premise. Players must encircle and trap the enemies with your ship to create zones that destroys them. Pretty cool and different from the straight up bullet hell or arcade shooter. So the aim is to avoid damage at all costs. Be quick and stay mobile. Players will need to get sort of tactical.

X35 Earthwalker Quantum recharged

So those who play the original will know what to do in Quantum: Recharged. Quantum: Recharged has the improved sounds, graphics, visuals, animations, scenery etc… But wait, there’s more! arcade mode off course as you got to play the game first. There’s leaderboards which means things get competitive. All those with no life will score high. Power ups, as new flavours need to be added. Power ups include things like an extra life, unlimited dodges and even freezing your enemies.

X35 Earthwalker Quantum recharged

Challenge mode is a thing. Quantum: Recharged challenge mode has 25 so called, “hand-crafted” levels which have their own challenges. For example, defeat a certain number of enemies within a time limit. Not very challenging if you ask us. Step it up Quantum: Recharged. The best thing they got going for them though is the fact that Quantum: Recharged has local co-op. So grab a family member or fiend, hand them a controller and have some fun.

X35 Earthwalker Quantum recharged

We checked out some Quantum: Recharged gameplay and it’s what we expected. Quantum: Recharged is definitely fast paced. Very fast. So make sure to get use to the speed. Dash around, avoid damage and danger, encircle foes and beat them. It’s so arcade and classic looking. Flashy, lights and action. 

Overall Quantum: Recharged looks like a fun game. A good fun game. Classic fun and simple formula. The developers ‘SneakyBox’ have done a very good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to hear how this game does. Quantum: Recharged may have a rerelease but it’s still hasn’t got the same quality level as… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Gord. Slavic Survival

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Gord

Gord is a survival Real Time Strategy Game developed by ‘covenant.dev‘ and published by ‘Team17‘. Gord is said to be coming out the 8th of December 2023 on the Xbox Series X, PS5 and pc. X35 Earthwalker likes the different cultures in games as it adds unique elements. Gord is trying to bring a unique experience for gamers. Let’s take a look.

Gord is supposed to be a unique adventure. You are responsible for a whole people. The Tribe of the Dawn’s people. You must build your gord. From simple hamlet/settlement to a real base/fortress. This off course won’t be easy as players will need to keep track of multiple things and manage said things. If you a gamer who ain’t got management skills, then expect to have a difficult time for complete failure.

X35 Earthwalker Gord

There’s main objectives which will guide you mostly but there are side quests that will keep you making decisions, putting you in danger and keeping you active. Gord will have you building structures and bringing up palisades. Gord will have you a lot of danger. There’s human threats like enemy tribes. There’s mythical threats like monsters and there’s also mysterious forces and powers happening in the surrounding area.

X35 Earthwalker Gord

You have to take care of the people. Every aspect. Your people can get sick and off course they will get hungry and thirsty. Even death is a factor. If a person loses their relative then they may suffer from it as in impacting their sanity. If things get critical there will be consequences like running away and off course the typical breakdown. So what happens outside and inside the camp matters.

What’s expected and included in this Gord Slavic style game are gods. If you please the gods, like with your prayers, you can get access to their spellcasting. These spells and incantations are designed to help you out in battle. Some are offensive types and others are defensive types. So expect incantations like even taking control of beasts. There’s the typical wrath or rage of the gods to demolish foes. So yeah, maybe bone on the gods good side.

X35 Earthwalker Gord

We checked out some Gord gameplay and it’s not exactly what we expected. It’s currently not impressing us right now. We like the depth of it and the many factors you have to into account while playing and the mechanics. Glad there are random encounters in Gord which can shake things up. Players may end up dealing with an infection in the area or maybe find and attempt to take down a legendary creature. The combat is very low scoring points. It gave us world of warcraft type combat vibes which we of course hate also. World of warcraft is so boring to us. We haven’t got much to say about it.

Overall Gord seems like an alright game. We have to see more of this game. We also need more concerning the combat banned appeal. We do like the rain effects on the characters and the lighting of like the torches in the night. The change of seasons is nice too. The difficulty of the game doesn’t seem hard enough. Like fake hard. Gord doesn’t seem like a difficult game. The developers ‘covenant.dev’ have done an alright job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will leave it up to the gamers to show what’s good with Gord. Now Gord may have a whole slavic adventure but it’s not adventurous enough for… the ‘Earth Walk’.

Under the Waves. Deep Stuff

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Under the Waves

Under the Waves is a narrative adventure game developed by ‘Parallel studios‘ and published by ‘Quantic Dream‘. Under the Waves is said to be coming out the 29th of august 2023 on the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4 and pc. Under the Waves is clearly trying to do something deep here. X35 Earthwalker has tamed the deep and so will be the judge here. Let’s take a look.

In Under the Waves players control a dude called Stan. He’s a professional diver. He’s in deep… literally. In the ocean under the waves all by himself. The year is 1970 and it’s a futuristic advanced 1970 to have this kind of tech. Stan is having a struggle in his mind. He experienced a “life-changing loss”. He can’t seem to get over it and move forwards. He’s got a decision to make. What will he do?

X35 Earthwalker Under the Waves

Smart move by Under the Waves. Now Stan being in the north sea is actually a good representation of his situation. He is all alone and isolated from the rest of people. Yet Stan mentally isolated himself and made himself all alone. He is right where he wants to be. Can he stay there forever though? As he gets deeper in his mental isolation, things start to happen in the ocean. As in strange events… deep down. 

X35 Earthwalker Under the Waves

We checked out some Under the Waves gameplay and it’s mostly what we expected. Under the Waves stays having you dive down into the ocean. Mix of gameplay and cinematic to make the ocean more active. Use the submarine and see different things. Things like a sunken ship. Big cool creatures like even a whale. Under the Waves has Stan equipped with a special wetsuit. Expect underwater plants and even plants. They got a story here so pay attention. Heard it was deep. 

Overall Under the Waves seems like a good game. The graphics are very good. The lighting is very good. The visuals could have been better. The ocean with all the life in it needs to be presented and displayed in excellent levels. It needs to be big. Also looking so big compared to us. Lots of life and look the part. The ocean is arguably going to be the biggest thing for us concerning Under the Waves. Hopefully the story will be as narrative driving and deep as we hope… and as portrayed by the developers. The developers ‘Parallel studios’ have done a good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to see what it brings forth. Now Under the Waves may be in the ocean but it ain’t deep enough for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Blasphemous 2. This Game?

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Blasphemous 2

Blasphemous 2 is an action metroidvania game developed by ‘The Game Kitchen‘ and published by ‘Team17‘. Blasphemous 2 is said to be coming out the 24th of August 2023 on the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. Blasphemous 2 is here to bring more weird stuff our way. X35 Earthwalker will have to see if this game got the goods or not. Let’s take a look.

Blasphemous 2 is described as the “second scripture in the blasphemous series.” The main dude is back, also known as the “penitent one”. The story continues from the DLC ‘wounds of eventide’. The weird stuff. Well their whole game is weird but do y’all remember the heart in the sky, all about the return of the miracle and the birth of a new so called miracle child. Yeah, so make sure you up to date concerning the story for the better experience.

X35 Earthwalker Blasphemous 2

So yeah, woken up again… but in a new and strange land. You aren’t near what’s suppose to be your final resting place. You have to pass the time somehow so might as well get up and explore this place. There are guaranteed long forgotten secrets. So make sure to discover them. There’s always something going on with how games like this end and then want to start up the sequel. 

We heard there’s a whole horde of ugly and weird enemies waiting for you. Hopefully there’s at least one good looking foe. Blasphemous 2 is suppose to have a more full and non-linear world. This also means there’s more to do. Take the npcs for example. There’s a bunch of new ones. Some will help, others will ask for help. Some will send you on “death defying” missions to get forgotten items.

X35 Earthwalker Blasphemous 2

You know Blasphemous 2 is going to have more weird bosses. They are described as twisted and that’s fair. Off course get ready for their attack patterns and learn the right timing and openings. They should be easier to beat thanks to upgrades to the combat. New weapons, executions, bigger combos and improvable skillset.

We checked out some Blasphemous 2 gameplay and it’s what we expected. Animations look slightly better. The world has stand out locations and the overall visuals are are better overall but it’s tough to tell from here. How far will Blasphemous 2 go concerning the designs, details and bosses. They did wuss out on some things last time. 

Overall, Blasphemous 2 seems like a good game. X35 Earthwalker was never interested in the Blasphemous series. The first game failed to impress or even interest him. Hopefully they do better this time. The developers ‘The Game Kitchen’ have done a good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will wait to see if this game will impress us. Now Blasphemous 2 may have a hew land to explore but it’s too small and simple for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

The Expanse: A Telltale Series. Here we go

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker The Expanse: A Telltale Series

The Expanse: A Telltale Series is a narrative adventure game developed by ‘TellTale games‘ and ‘Deck Nine games‘. The Expanse: A Telltale Series episode 1 is said to be coming out the 27th of July 2023 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. X35 Earthwalker is very aware of the Telltale series games. Time for a new adventure. The Expanse: A Telltale Series might be up to something here. Let’s take a look.

The Expanse: A Telltale Series episode 1 is all the way up in space. So yeah, there’s no jumping ship this time. You basically follow a lady called Camina Drummer on a ship called the Artemis. Her choices of course will determine everything. You know the drill by now… it’s a Telltale game. There’s a mutiny… a bloody one. So yeah, not everything is as it seems, think about things clearly, get ready for quick time events and pay attention to clues.

X35 Earthwalker The Expanse: A Telltale Series

Now comparisons will always be made. Previous Telltale titles either had illusions, human threats or monsters. It’s looking like human threats again. The mutiny will probably be the most in your face threat but there’s also going to be space pirates… no, not Metroid space pirates. Actual raid, attack and probably board type pirates.

X35 Earthwalker The Expanse: A Telltale Series

We checked out some The Expanse: A Telltale Series gameplay and it’s what we expected for sure. Exploration is the key thing in the game. This time you are exploring in space, on the outskirts of an asteroid belt. You will even get the chance to scavenge wrecked ships… in zero g. Hint to players: Camina Drummer’s resolve matters here. Those who know the story already through certain media will haver an advantage here. We prefer jumping in blind and getting the new experience. 

Overall The Expanse: A Telltale Series looks like an alright game. We have sort of low expectations for this game. We know exactly what we want from this game as well. Visually it looks very good. The voice acting is very good too. There’s a lot of character interaction as well. Wonder if betrayal gets thrown into the mix. The developers ‘TellTale games‘ and ‘Deck Nine games‘ have done a veery good job so far. Looks like a lot of work went into it. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an eye open for this game. Now The Expanse: A Telltale Series may have dangers in space but those are simple stuff compared to… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Cross Tails is said to be coming out the 20th of July 2023 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. X35 Earthwalker gives many games a chance… why not this one. Cross Tails is bringing in a whole war. Let’s take a look.

Cross Tails has a funny but easy to understand situation world. There’s two kingdoms. The kingdom of Ranverfurt in the north and the Republic of Hidiq in the south. so what’s the problem? kingdom of Ranverfurt are canine while the Republic of Hidiq are feline. Get it yet? North is dogs and south are cats. It’s Dogs vs Cats. This land has been heavily affected by the war. Things have been bad for a decade. The citizens of both nations clearly don’t like each other and have this basically imprinted in their mind sets to hate each other. Time to explore this world.

Cross Tails is off course a big story game. Characters, their relationships to other characters like family. History and of course talking and interacting to learn everything etc. The battle side of Cross Tails is where things get real tactical. We talking positioning your units, melee units, ranged units, stats etc. We do like the look of the battle field. The information seems to be displayed clearly. There also seems to be items or things to interact with on the battlefield itself.

So yeah, exploration is the key. You need to look around, speak to people and get involved with what’s happening in the two nations and this world. If you make progress and truly get to the bottom of this, then maybe you’ll reveal a certain third party. A sinister third party who just might be influencing things. There’s two adventures in Cross Tails go play through. Experience both sides and perspectives of the situation. Felix Arens and Shaimaa Jerbi. Pick one and get to it.

We checked out some Cross Tails gameplay and it’s what we expected. We have seen games like this before but Cross Tails is made in the year 2023 so we expect the details to be a higher level. Cross Tails looks good and the combat is tactical with multiple variables. Seems deep enough for tactical players to get into. The themes in Cross Tails are serious and clearly want to bring the emotions in or situations that are relatable. Will they do it well?

Overall Cross Tails is looking like a very good game. Maybe even excellent but more needs to be seen and things need to be experienced. Games like this with a whole new world and history, with deep stories are needed. The fans are there. The tactical side with a whole skill tree on top adds a lot to the game. A lot. The developers ‘Rideon’ have done an excellent job so far. X35 Earthwalker will keep an ear open for this game. Cross Tails may have a feud between nations but it would have been solved immediately by… the ‘Earth Walk!’
