The RPG games genre has been a Japanese game school specialty for a long time and has raised numerous gamers. The same gamers will say that jRPG games are no longer what they once were, which is true, but will also be happy to find out where jRPG titles are today. The game called Lost Sphear counts on this fact, offering gamers a grain of nostalgia and striving to achieve the quality of a class like Chrono Trigger or Secret of Mana. In the spiritual successor of the game…

Crossover projects that mix characters from different games/media into one „mishmash“ are certainly very appealing to video game publishers. If we exclude Kingdom Hearts, crossovers are mostly part of the martial arts games field (Marvel vs Capcom, Smash Bros.). Given that in such games players have the opportunity to inflict physical damage on the characters that are hated; it is clear where their attractiveness comes from. This time Dissidia decided to once again include many characters from the Final Fantasy series in its Dissidia Final Fantasy NT. The new…

Dragon Ball FighterZ is a product of the Arc System Works development team, the team responsible for the respected Guilty Gear and BlazBlue series and which has worked on Dragon Ball games on a number of occasions, but this is the first game they made for the home consoles. The developer in question likes two things: hand-drawn 2D graphics and gameplay based on combo moves. This makes them an ideal candidate for making Dragon Ball games. The complete look of the game, voice acting (yes, it’s possible to choose…

In the games, hunting was once an activity reserved for the Cabela’s C production games. The situation began to change sometime at the arrival of Red Dead Redemption, and then there was a wave of games where hunting was one of the basic mechanics. Far Cry 3, The Witcher 3 and Horizon Zero Dawn are just some of those games. But before them there was Monster Hunter, Capcom‘s series that started in 2004. The new sequel to Monster Hunter World comes to attract new audiences around the world to…

There is something strange in human nature that makes the concept of mysterious murders the climax of intrigue for us. It is the simplest explanation to why the crime genre enjoys so much success in popular culture and why it is present wherever you turn. Among the most read books of today are Nesbø’s and Larsson’s crime stories, and on the TV you can watch the trillionth CSI season followed by Narcos, True Detective and the like. Hidden Agenda is a sort of successor to the great horror Until…

Battlefront II‘s singleplayer campaign begins promisingly and briefly touches on the motif of excessive self-confidence. The story is about the events between the sixth and seventh episode of the Star Wars, a canon that no other medium will materialize. The final spice of that delicacy is the fact that Iden Versio, the commander of the imperial Inferno Squad, is in the lead. The story rests on a weak basis, and the gameplay is pretty unattractive during the campaign. The shooting was not interesting in any moment because there was…

According to Guerrilla Games, in the Horizon Zero Dawn: Frozen Wilds, a technologically advanced species, with which we share the century, spent its time saving the world instead of praying to various gods, and a thousand years later the protagonist Aloy follows the same path. On the other side, the people our young heroine encounters on her journey still struggle with primitive beliefs which makes them give a form of divinity to anything they do not understand. Like Horizon Zero Dawn, the Frozen Wilds expansion teaches us that an…

Prior to the release of Need for Speed: Payback I joked how this could be NFS Refund or NFS Rear View Mirror. After I invested more time in that game than it deserved, I think a better name for it would be NFS Payoff. Everything in the new NFS is about paying. For every possible thing, even the most ridiculous of them, the game pays some points to you. You drifted a little with your car, albeit by chance? Here’s the salary! Payment is coming, as if you had…

This year Sledgehammer Games has made a decent WW2 game that can proudly stand beside the first two Call of Duty games. Decent in this case means exactly what you would expect from a Call of Duty game, and not much more than that. The campaign is firmly directed and scripted, and the multiplayer is recognizably conservative in the terms of today’s shooter games. The advantage of all this is that Call of Duty: WWII slides without any need for instructions. It does not matter that you have to…

The job of a football coach, or a manager, has changed dramatically over the last few years. Managers are now stay in clubs and representations shorter than players themselves. We’re not even halfway through the current season, and big names like Ancelotti, Bilic, de Boer, etc. have already been fired. It’s funny to compare the actual manager job with the virtual one, primarily because it gives you far more insight into it. Football Manager gives you this opportunity, on a very detailed, almost microscopic level. When it comes to…
