Came across a game called "The Killing Antidote." Resident Evil-ish game made by chinese developers. It's in testing and you can request access. I got mine immediately after requesting for it. Played it a little bit, seems okay. Has lots of customizations for the female MC. Pressing space makes your character do a low jump, useful with the correct customization, hahaha.
So i grabbed Jedi Survivor during Spring Sale...doable nmn ung framepacing issue and may konting graphical glitches but the performance overall is great. Pinaka issue ko lang is di gumagana ung Steam overlay sa game, di ako makapagtake ng screenshots tho achievements are fine. Meron workaround to add ung EA launcher sa Steam tapus dun mo i-run ung game pero di pwede i upload ung mga screenshots sa Steam mismo. So sad, kc sobrang laki ng improvement ng Survivor sa Fallen Order on every aspect.
Mejo GOTY ko na tong Hell Divers 2. Never have I got hooked on a game that I lose track of time ever since playing diablo 2 like last time. Inaabot ako 4-5am kaka helldive haha.
They're doing a lot of things right, but kinda sad na sila ay exception, not the norm:
- Live service game, and as it should be. The "war" against the terminids (bugs) and the other "war" against the Automatons (basically, the terminators) feels immersive, thanks for it being managed by a GM from arrowhead.
- micro transactions are actually Micro! Walang FOMO pa kung gusto mo bumili ng Premium Game pass that unlocks previous Warbonds, kasi forever available as long as the game is alive.
- hindi rin predatory yung setup nung denominations of the premium currency. You can just keep on buying the 490php = 1000 super credits to buy the latest warbond, as each warbond costs 1000 super creds (you can even farm them in game, and it won't take you months to farm it in game, maybe 1 or 2 days?)
- First time gusto ko talaga gumastos for micro transactions without feeling bad, kasi gusto ko masuportahan yung ginagawa ng devs for the industry.
- friendly sa beginners and those who can only allot a few moments of their lives to game. Kasi roguelike siya na PVE. Wala ka mafi-feel na maiiwan ka porke saglit ka lang nakakalaro, yes you'd need to progress to get access to the other strategems and weapons, but the initial kit you have is actually viable.
- dahil PVE, halos walang toxic. Yun ayaw ko sa mga competitive games, diko kayang sabayan kasi laging meron at merong mas magaling sakin na hindi ko kayang talunin, dito, di mo kelangan abutin sila, kasi PVE.
There are game bugs yes (not the terminids), as I do get the occasional game crash or yung biglang di ako makaalis sa pwesto ko. Pero the game is so good, I tend to look past these as minor inconveniences.
Sana mag stick yung player base nila.
I can go on and on about how I massively like the game. Basta as it stands, GOTY for me.
Samantalang dati, happy-go-lucky lang sa pag max ng lahat ng settings haha. Narealize ko luma narin pala to. Naka 3 years na sakin haha. Parang last year lang kasi 2021
Ung Jedi Survivor kept crashing during optimization. Almost gave up. Turned off everything sa Adrenaline. Biglang lumusot and now able to get into the game. Started story and game crashed several minutes in (wala pa sa game proper, still part of the opening).
So far, hindi na nag-crash sa optimization but it still goes through it every time you launch the game. Crashes in game are pretty random.
^check ka ng forum baka specific sa hardware mo ung issue. Though di tlaga ganun ka optimized yung game, never nmn ako nagka crash.
My setup: Ryzen 5700X3D, RX6800XT, 16GB ram, installed in mechanical hard drive. solid sa tagal mag load kapag fast travels, and need mo maghintay ng ilang seconds pagka load before ka makagalaw ng maayos lol pero after nung initial load ok na. Wala kc space sa SSD.
^ binili ko kanina Helldivers 2 sa 3rd party key site. (Greenman gaming)
Testing lang kung gagana. Ayun nag activate naman. Ewan ko kung i-disable din nila key activations in the future.
