March Assassination #1 (SG Win / PoP Pick)

11.4 hours

29/88

Please consider liking my review on Steam - it means a lot to me!

It's quite a miserable experience to run this game on modern hardware, and even more miserable to attempt to beat it given the brutal difficulty curve, but I would be remiss if I didn't recognize it does more things well than poorly.

To be fair, I don't see myself playing it anymore. It didn't really click with me. The humor and lore/plot are a bit cringey and get old very soon. It's not terrible, just not great either. But what really didn't land with me were the controls, and consequently, the combat. Magicka's spell system is really, really intricate and deep. This means expert players are capable of bending the elements at will, casting shields, imbuing weapons, placing grenades, using projectiles, beams and AoE attacks when they want. But it requires so many button presses that are placed so close together that it felt like my fingers were playing DDR. In order to keep alive and the DPS decent, you have to type faster with your left-hand than a Twitch mod banning slur during a CoD livestream. Half the time I was using memorized spells, the other half I was dead. It is a deep system, but really hard to grasp and too much for my smol brein.

That said, it's a game that looks and sounds lovely, and while the challenge level is high, it's also somewhat fair and varied for skilled players (I can attest seeing pros playing on Youtube). Multiplayer coop must be a lot of fun. But it's hard to recommend this game given the instability issues, the arcane controls, and the overall frustration that comes with it. Buyer beware, this might become one of your favorite games, or something you simply hate or play out of spite

Update 14
I’ve played like nothing this month since I was too engrossed in watching tv shows, notably Fallout and Game of Thrones BUT there is one game that had to be played no matter what. Resident Evil Requiem.

Absolutely incredible video game. Obviously nothing can touch re4, but this might be the next best one in the series, though it's hard to say since it's been a while since I've played Village which I also really loved. They manage to strike a really good balance between the gameplay of Grace and Leon, horror and action. My actual gameplay time was just under 11 hours, so it's a bit of a shorter game, considering I explored pretty much everything (literally only missed 3 files lol).

If you can, turn on hair strands, because goddamn Leon's hair looks perfect.

That’s kind of it for this month, really lazy month for me. Played a bit of Fallout New Vegas and will definitely continue with that.

Lets just jump into business, surprise surprise my favourite game of the month is a yuri! Demon Queen was so good. Its just an all round wholesome comedy. It links back to the Cat yaoi they made before which I’m certainly curious about replaying one day now that I can understand the references between both sets

I jumped into that because I didn’t actually have anything to say but then I thought of something, will I change what I said nope so we are going backwards this time! I got myself a new laptop this month and changed up my profile. I decided to have a second game showcase with my favourite yuris (there are 2 missing but profile limited) It actually made my main one a problem since Kindred spirits is like one of my all time favourites so it was there, all 3 favourite girls. Like I could not easily think of another game as I wanted it to be a visual novel not just ffx. But you know amnesia is a great game, to bad the header is plain

Report #23 February

Kinda uneventful month. Went ahead with my usual idle games, finished the ETS2 valentine event, got disappointed that Nocan had nothing new story-wise compared with the playtest, just some “grind” scenes that I was able to completely skip as I haven’t got some not so useful updates that I noticed during the playtest, finished most of CellStudios games which I purchased a while ago, and finished Isle of Jura which I won on steamgifts in january, managed to download few demos from the steam next fest that i hardly started playing on them, hopefully i can manage to finish with them before they get disabled. Aaaaand that’s kinda everything.

See you next time and happy gaming in the meantime!

Weird month. I’m from Brazil and February is usually when Carnaval happens, and I take that very seriously, meaning that in between travel and recovery, I expected to not game for roughly half of the month. What I did not expect was to wake up one day with immense abdominal pain and having to rush to surgery to remove my appendix. I guess that’s life. On the bright side I’m back home and with a lot of time on my hands, so maybe March will be good for my backlog lol a light month in terms of new games, either beaten or added to the library, but maybe that’s for the best
