Bart will try talking to her when he has a chance, to learn about her story more. But first, our first boarding! It is also a Sloop under the pirate flag. The pics below illustrate how combat looks in the game: you encounter a ship on a global map, engage with the event, start closing in...

On Bermuda, Bart finds a pirate who is young but well-respected by people on the island. Yoko Diaz, a female officer, seems to be far away from her motherland. Getting her trust is difficult, though: she says Bart's reputation is not good enough. Sounds like Bart needs to become "The Gentleman...

Gamescom is happening this week.

Meet young Bartolomeu "Bart" Português, watching over his small boat on the shore of Hispaniola (modern Haiti). All the navies are hostile to him (French, English, Spanish, and Dutch), and Spain even announced a bounty of 24k pesos for his head. The ship is a tier 6 Sloop, it's 50% damaged...

Yo Ho, Ho! (And a Bottle of Rum) In 1724, an unknown British author released the book A General History of the Robberies and Murders of the most notorious Pyrates. It continues to be reprinted in many different editions, sometimes published under Charles Johnson's name and sometimes under...

This vacation, I watched Our Flag Means Death (not gonna lie, I had re-watched my favourite Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy before). And Oh-My-God! It's beautiful, full of humour, romance, adventure, it's so fresh, and funny, and interesting! The fact they managed to create a well-made series...

A Plague Tale: Requiem by Asobo Studio releases in exactly two months. I'm so looking forward to it. The first game was such a unique experience: a good, yet a bit scary, story, full of French & medieval feeling, nice mechanics, and most importantly, a very rare game for "young adults". That...

Blizzard shared some info on a very important topic: monetization in D4. I'm happy with what I'm seeing: "The best-looking cosmetics aren’t exclusive to the Shop. Diablo IV will ship with hundreds of transmogs unlockable from drops in-game, including dozens of armor sets of the highest visual...

That's some nice progress for Cythandria, good job. Getting good gear before or after just starting the Nightmare difficulty usually is very important for your survival, especially if this gear improves resistances. Another moment for a similar procedure (at least for me) happens during Act 1 in...

That's a great detailed review! One thing I find difficult is giving a game a score, especially if this game was released many years ago, but the score is given today. I consider Skyrim dated. Too many mechanics now have better alternatives. There are so many open-world games and RPGs released...

This doesn't really promise a good future for the game, considering the game's development. They had already moved from SpartialOS to UE4 before, now they moved from UE4 to UE5. https://deluxe.news/nightingale-interview-biowares-value-in-a-cooperative-survival-sim/...

No 2022 release for Hogwarts Legacy:

That was rather quick (6 days)! Congrats! Only 0.1% of players have that achievement, that's very cool!

Ah, the Red Dragon armour, brings back the Dragon Age: Origins memories. Dr. Mordin is one of the most iconic NPCs in gaming, I think. Btw, Zaeed - The Price of Revenge is a DLC pack for Mass Effect 2 that was released on January 28, 2010. It was initially intended to be released on January 26...

https://www.eurogamer.net/how-larian-and-slitherine-adapted-dungeons-dragons-and-warhammer After browsing the Larian forum a bit, I see there are many followers of this game who don't agree with the changes Larian have made to D&D. Even one comment under the Eurogamer article has that...

I just don't know, it's 🤘🤘🤘 On a side note, another successful Early Access title (might be interesting for Vampire Survivors players): https://kotaku.com/vampire-survivors-bullet-hell-roguelike-steam-hit-1849367325

That's a great idea for a thread. I haven't played Solasta yet, but I have it in my library. I'm sure a thread like this will inspire people like me to actually give this game a go!

OHHHHHH! THAT'S SO COOL! CONGRATS! 👏 And thanks a lot for these status updates and thoughts about the game/builds/tips! 🥂

I guess there are games for all tastes. Management games can be very fun. The biggest step is to try them for the first time.

Hey @Black Elk, it's so good to see you here! I echo a lot of what you've said: the radio silence you mention, either intended or unintended due to longer development cycles, COVID, or a company growing too quickly, just feels so odd for an EA title; then there is the 100% reliance on the EA...
