Valheim, released in 2021, has a functionally broken progression system. The game’s difficulty ramps up dramatically after the swamp, causing players to focus either on early game content or rely on mods to fundamentally change the game. Valheim’s approach to the survival mechanic has made progression take an exhausting amount of time to reach the best parts of the game and its updates. Many players will reflect on their fondest memories resting between the meadows and the swamps, when the game is still simple and the gameplay loop is refreshing. The manual nature of everything works and the game is challenging and exciting, no matter the settings. Starting at the mountains things change. This comes from a Valheim multiplayer prespective, not so much a single player perspective. The Issues with Progression The biome progression within Valheim is meadows, dark forest, swamp, mountains, plains, mistlands, ashlands and then the as of…
Marathon is historical and important, but do we really think about how deep its impact was to the gaming industry? We take a deep look at innovating and iteration in FPS gaming.
It seemed like Helldivers 2 was unstoppable but midway through 2024 it has fallen down to where Bloons TD 6 and Fallout 76 rest on the charts. This fall from the top wasn’t really from any single incident, but a collection of decisions that consistently drove player counts down from the unexpected hype of its release. You may think the account linking fiasco is what destroyed the player counts, but the game was actually in free fall long before then: HELLDIVERS™ 2 – Steam Charts. The problems were not only fundamental to the game’s design but the developers and publisher both didn’t rectify the obvious game issues rapidly enough before they lost the vast majority of players due to attrition. Note: This is only notable due to the anomalous nature of Helldivers 2 holding a strong player population for an extended period of time and then losing it, not specifically…

The Fallout series has several eras to consider when you’re thinking about the video games. The first is the classical era, which contains Fallout 1 & 2 along with Fallout Tactics. Next comes the first general 3D era, which contains Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas. The modern era includes Fallout 4 (including the modernization update) and Fallout 76. Which game should you play first and which are the best in the series? Let’s take a deeper look. Fallout Series Tier List & Ranking Why Fallout 4 is the Best and Should Be Your First Fallout Game There’s so many reasons why you should play Fallout 4 first: There’s a lot more I can dive into (more companions in FO4, lots of additional side quests and locations, etc.) but ultimately if you’re looking to get into the Fallout Universe, Fallout 4 is the first game you should give a try.…
A X (formally Twitter) user transcribed comments from a recent “StockWatch” episode where Piotr Nielubowicz provided commentary about single player microtransactions. He made the comment that he doesn’t see them for single player games, but multiplayer it would make sense. https://twitter.com/JuiceHead33/status/1773750640797175941?s=20 We do not see a place for microtransactions in the case of single-player games, but we do not rule out that we will use this solution in the future in the case of multiplayer projects. Piotr Nielubowicz, Chief Financial Officer i Karolina Gnaś, VP ds. relacji inwestorskich CD Projekt SA – start 29 marca o godz. 11:00 (stockwatch// .pl) Community Reaction Reaction to this has been positive. With the recent backlash against Dragon’s Dogma 2’s single player MTX, it only makes sense that the community looks for leaders to make bold statements about MTX within their games. Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher III both only had cosmetic and expansion…
Starfield, which has been the hallmark moniker for “Toddslop,” has set the bar for future Bethesda games fairly low. Starfield’s launch has been met with a considerable amount of negative reception and I fully expect that Elder Scrolls 6 will meet the same fate. To succinctly put my point: Skyrim will remain the gold standard and Elder Scrolls 6 will fall as flat as Starfield has. That is unless Bethesda does some major restructuring with their creative design. Skyrim is where this series will rest on its laurels forever, unless innovation comes fast. Starfield gave us an inferior experience to Skyrim, even with the wealth of new technology and learnings from Skyrim and Elder Scrolls Online, along with Fallout 4 and Fallout 76. Starfield Sets the Bar Low Starfield should have been the latest open world RPG that players flock to. A space setting, with the Bethesda world building and…
