What we played in April: Homefront, Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, The Witcher 3
We offer to familiarize our monthly release. For various reasons, the material, alas, managed to prepare not at the beginning of the month, but only now.
Pleasant reading!
HomeFront (2011)
I went through this game at the time of release. Then, after the passage of single campaigns Call of Duty and Bad Company 2, it seemed simple and short. And after a recent reproduction, I remained the same opinion.
The plot takes place in the near future. North Korea began to develop after the death of its leader. By 2025, the US economy weakened, and under the oppression of the Great Korean Republic, was taken under tough control. The people of America, who lost their regular army, but not broken, will continue to fight the invaders, waging an uncompromising partisan war against them.
The ENT game is very good, written soundly and read interestingly. But is served through newspaper clippings that are scattered by levels, character dialogs and boot screens.
The characters are registered well and gradually open. Despite the stereotype: the formidable and stiff conner (a hint of the terminator), the bold and attractive Baba Baba Rihanna, the Hopper technician is an American with Korean roots and a judicial dark-skinned Boins resistance leader.
The levels are diverse in places: it is necessary to show invisibility, then control the military equipment, then fly by helicopter, then shoot from a sniper rifle, or to destroy the enemy under a phosphorus attack.
And the levels have a variety of visuals: the village of hermits, mass graves, occupied cities, resistance points, and some of them change during the passage.
Gameplay of the game is felt clumsy and rude. You can’t take aiming by holding the button, the animation is stingy, the return is only visual. And sometimes scripts may not work or work crookedly. In addition, partners do not really help with battle: they shoot past, often scream and interfere with their feet.
I liked the variety of weapons and sights. Three types of each type of sights, various types of camouflage and trunks delight the eye. There is something to choose to exterminate the enemy.
In general, you can buy a https://nonukcasinosites.co.uk/european-betting-sites/ game on sale and go in a couple of evenings.
Wolfenstein: The Old Blood
The prequel to the best shooter of 2014 I went completely and knocked out all Achivka this month. Last time I have to get medals for tests, get one perk and go through the game at the highest level of complexity. For this passage, I managed to do this.
The game begins a few days before the events of the main game, Bi Jay and his partner penetrate Wolfenstein in order to find a secret folder. But everything goes not according to plan, and the hero has to make a difficult journey to complete his mission. During the passage, we will be able to visit the castle, local village, small town, fight off from undead, wander around the cemetery, manage the robot and fight with the ancient monster. And at the end we go to battle in the Clot of the Skull.
The game turned out to be shorter than the main one, and during the passage you do not get tired of it.
The characters turned out only partially outwardly memorable, and they do not have such a strong charisma as in the main game. They are needed only to issue a task and tell part of the Black Black. By the way, about him. It is interesting to read about the fictional events that occurred in the game: an unsuccessful landing in Normandy, the search for ancient civilizations, archaeological finds … The story is prescribed soundly and read with pleasure.
The weapons diversified: a mini-racket appeared, a sniper rifle, a double-barreled man and a pipe, so that it was more fun to fight the fascist! New perks and trials for them have appeared.
I can also note good humor and reference to mass culture. Testing was also added to pass the level of the level on the glasses. Good challeng for gamers. Try to go through all the locations for gold! It will not be easy! Levels in the style of the old game have not gone anywhere.
In general, I can advise the passage. The game is short, rich and pleases with diversity.
From me, the rating is 7.5/10.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
This month I managed to go through three games: Aliens vs Predator 2010, Medal of Honor: Airborne and Call of Duty: World at War. For all of them, I am going to tell separately – about MOH and COD the blog will be for weeks. So today I will probably share the impressions of only one – The Witcher 3 . At the moment, I have not finished the game yet, but nevertheless, what can I say.
I’ll start. It seems to me that wild hunting is (almost) the perfect combination of ideas of the first and second part. As in the original witcher, to a greater extent the game is built on a free adventure, and not a strict production. A special emphasis is on the primary setting: fields, forests, swamps, all kinds of, it would seem, unremarkable villages and villages – on what sequel was so lacking.
From the second, the witcher took the fighting, significantly complementing it and the so -called “console” – to engage in potions is not interesting from the word at all. Elixirs are replenished automatically, and recipes now do not even need to even look at the encyclopedia. Actually, the CD Projekt took their mistake made in continuation, and carefully transferred it to a tricel. Fortunately, it is not critical, and someone may well seem to be a plus. Subjective is subjective. But there is another problem, more serious and obvious – the presentation of the plot, and probably, even he himself.
The root lies on the surface – CD Projekt trying to compose an interesting, captivating plot and simulate a large, diverse world, in the end they made, roughly speaking, two different, inconsistent parts of the game; The first one all the time drives someone to look and save us, and the second, on the contrary, is extremely slowly, leisurely drives all the nooths of nicepa land. In order to understand the level of incoming absurdity, imagine a typical Call of Duty with a rapid gameplay and Hollywood Katszen, but placed in a huge sandbox with smart opponents. Here is a wild hunt – about the same thing, but from the world of the role.
I will talk about this in detail, but after passing the main game.
Let’s now a little about the fighting.
Firstly, as for me, it is still more “twisted” than in the second part-there sometimes she literally did not work, scattering into pieces. If you played in the “killers of kings” at least at an average level of complexity, then well remember which “gumple-gum” begins, attack at least 3-4 adversaries. Here, by adding a rebound, it managed to make it more tactical.
Secondly, in order to receive the “Vedzhminsky gameplay” in order to get at least at the penultimate level of difficulty, I was advised by my friends, and I will also tell you. By “Witcher gameplay” I mean the use of not only signs, but also various oils, elixirs and decoctions. Having reduced the complexity by only one point, there is no need not only in potions, but also in standard movements according to the type of block, dodging and somersault; The main thing is just as often as possible to click on LKM.
Well, so far I like the game more than not. But there is no question of any final conclusions regarding The Witcher 3.
Well, thank you for your attention! See you again in a month. In the meantime, if you want, you can familiarize yourself with our previous publications.
The best comments
Witcher 3 for me a gorgeous RPG who needs to be held, but if we are talking about the best game among RPGs, then this mother is his Disco Elysium The Final Cut The best is the best game in the text is a non -linear story (there are only the ends are mostly related to death, but the main thing will be who you will play out and here are in terms of playing disco Elysium can give even a witcher 3), a cool detective story with a buch of GG, and MMM MUMM is cool, even Disco Elysium, bold on the topic of politics and the authors are not shy about this to say how many outbreaks that they prefer to bypass this spent political views on communalists, fascists and ultraliberals and at the same time authors and at the same time authors Mixes these political views like communism in the name of Lenin to recreate the USSR from the ashes, and art design and graphone, this is directly done (given the budget), conversations with personalities,In general, Disco Elysium is a very courageous and very not ordinary RPG under which a visual novel is hidden (t.K in the game there is a lot of read) This is the game on which others are required to equal, like a witcher 3, be sure to play Disco Elysium how time will be.
I’m going through the Disco Elysium and I haven’t gotten so for a long time and I haven’t banged from the text in games, I haven’t laughed for a long time, I didn’t laugh at the games in the games almost all over the room (while I finished the first day in the game).
Witcher 3 Great game but if you slightly trim the voice acting without these slowdown or accelerations and slightly correct the Saba in the ruble translation, then there would be an ideal.
