Recent reviews by Sherbiee

I am for the most part a 4b lane player so I have no idea of how the other charting is, so if you are looking for other lane reviews, this is not the review for you. Anyways, here is the actual review:

I have to say that this is actually worth the 20 dollars (200 Nok) I paid for this DLC, and frankly it feels like a 20 dollar DLC. Now having said that it does not mean it is bad at all, I quite find the DLC to be fairly priced. You get 12 songs, some of them I do not really enjoy playing mostly because I do not enjoy the songs themselves but on MAXIMUM difficulty they are actually quite nice to play. The songs feel nice and do have some funny BGA videos (looking at you Yodeling in meadow hill (Hidden Retreat)). I do wish there were more songs in this pack, but I am happy with what we got as one of the collabs I thought we would never get, it took me by surprise!

Now I have to say this is my most favourite pack visually, if you want songs I would suggest any of the other packs that feature a lot of other playlists such as the V EXTENSION PACK (all of them tbh, you will find a few songs that do have something for you).

The reasoning for why I am saying it is very appealing is that the GEAR (and note) as well as the THEME is very true to how TEKKEN feels and looks like. The GEAR is shaped like an arcade machine with healthbars as well as El Fail and El Clear dressed up for the occasion. Seriously, they did a really nice job on the art and I am so happy to say that this is the ONE time I actually prefer El Clear's outfit over El Fail. I should also mention that the buttons on the arcade machines press down as you press the buttons on your keyboard down.

You thought I would stop the review here, didn't you? No, there is more! I completed every single song and got all of the gallery (at least the artwork I believe) unlocked and it is simply stunning how well done each and every outfit for all of the characters are done. They took some serious inspiration for all of the girls! I am unsure if each girl is dressed up as a specific character, but I am sure someone can point this out if this is true or not.

So do I recommend this pack? Absolutely yes! If you are specifically looking for more songs to play... honestly, no? The songs are great, don't get me wrong, but I do not think 12 songs are worth the 20 dollars (on top of some of the more badass songs possibly not being picked, but this is DJMAX we are talking about, I understand they want to try and cater to all of their audience), but this is specifically TEKKEN so if you do not enjoy TEKKEN at all or its music I would stay away from this pack. If you are looking to just collect more songs then just ignore my opinion as I can understand that completionists would want to get this DLC as an achievement is locked behind it. If you want specifically the GEAR, THEME, note, and gallery art and so on then go for it, it is very much worth every single penny. Regardless, you will find some joy with this pack. I am sure the TEKKEN fanservice is great with this one as it does bring some great BGA.

Seriously addicting and fun with friends.

I only have under an hour of gameplay, but let me tell you WHY you should at the very least consider this game if you already play DJMAX Respect V and similar games that uses sidetrack mechanics.

This game genuinely has one of the most surprising mechanics that I have not seen a lot of rhythm games have:
It literally becomes a 4K lane into 5K lane MID SONG. Honestly, it caught me off by surprise but I started getting the hang of it after 10-20 minutes of gametime.

As mentioned, this game also utilizes sidetrack so teeeechnically you could consider the game to be 5K from the start and then going into 7K if you play on SOLAR mode.

Now you might be wondering: what is a SOLAR mode?
This game has SOLAR mode (sidetracks included)
And then it has LUNAR mode (no sidetracks)
Regardless of which mode you choose, you will still have the 5K lane mechanic mid song.

You will find both calm and peaceful songs as well as your fast and finger mashing ones. Whatever it is you are looking for you will find something that you can play. Or play all of the songs for that matter, the charting in this game as far as I can see is just of good quality as the DJMAX Respect V ones.

There is also what I believe to be a Live2D character accompanying you in some screens. Seriously, EXTREMELY cute.

In short:
Sidetrack mechanics
Features 4K and 5K lanes at the same time
Good variety of songs
DJMAX RV level of charting
Cute navigator
DLC that alters the menu, gear and notes, similar to DJMAX RV

Game is still in early access, but don't let that sway you away. It is seriously fun to play.

If you want a slashing and shooting game, get Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance instead.

I get that this game is supposed to be difficult, but even the normal difficulty which is how it is "supposed to be played" is kind of a joke and a mean punch to anyone who genuinely just wants to play. I got stuck at the boss wondering whether or not I was playing "a hardcore game" or some sort of joke that was posing as a rage game.

The acting is sub-par. I even joked about LOTR: Gollum having a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ writing but this game offers the worst of both worlds. If you are advertising the game having a "gripping" story, I should feel immersed. The main character not even sounding like a main character is turning me away from this game, even more so than the mechanics...

Well, the mechanics is nothing to brag about and bring home to your mother and show her how awesome this game is, cause it is anything but that. Not only do you tickle the enemies with your swords, but the grunts and low tier enemies you are killing don't really feel like low tier enemies. It is incredibly frustrating and the controls are janky.

Yes, I only have 0.9 hours on record and I should "play more" to get the "optimal experience", but there is just so many negatives about this game. I was looking forward to it, I REALLY wanted to love this game and thought this would be one of the few hack and slash games that would make me feel captivated in a story, but it feels like a half cooked pasta that nobody really wants to eat.

If there is a future update that fixes all of these problems it would be a game worthwhile picking up, but I would not even recommend getting it on a sale.

Steering clear of this game is highly advised, as it is riddled with an unfathomable number of bugs that pass off as a so-called "playable" experience. However, the term "playable" here merely implies an ongoing struggle with unresponsive controls, akin to wrestling an unruly opponent.

The camera is another issue, forever fixated on some imaginary popcorn kernel wedged between your teeth. Meanwhile, the enemies' uncanny abilities grant them superhuman senses, making you feel like a hapless spy attempting to sneak past them undetected.

Surprisingly, the choices you make throughout the game hardly affect the ending, if they even have any impact at all. They are rendered mere illusions of decision-making, bearing no real significance in shaping the rest of the gameplay.

One can't help but chuckle at some of the bugs, even if they do make you question your sanity. A curious instance involves a choice between the SPOILER ALERT: frail old man and the mean orc's fate. Despite choosing the old man to survive, the game erroneously features the orc in subsequent cutscenes, leaving you befuddled. Gollum's schizoid personality may be at play, but such glaring inconsistencies can't be entirely overlooked, causing you to second-guess yourself.

Promoted as a game that delves into Gollum's past, it falls disappointingly short. The bulk of the experience comprises repetitive tasks with sporadic moments of passable writing, drowned in a sea of way too many bugs. It becomes evident why Daedalic Entertainment primarily stuck to strategy games and other acclaimed titles, like Barotrauma, Unrailed!, and Witch It. The decision to release this game, despite its myriad issues, is baffling, and Nacon's endorsement of it only adds to the perplexity.

This game fails to deliver on its promise despite long-awaited anticipation. The story feels like a feverish dream, while the choices you make prove inconsequential. There's simply no saving grace for this title.

Now, let's discuss the obvious comparison: the game seems like an Assassin's Creed clone, only you're transformed into a fragile being incapable of handling even the slightest confrontation. It's hard to ignore the ill-conceived model of Gollum, resembling a face stung by bees. Whoever approved this design must have been lacking sound judgment.

Unsatisfied with the experience, I attempted to get a refund, but alas, my invested hours prevented it. While I comprehend the Terms of Service, it's only fair for consumers to be treated with respect when we can't recover our precious (pun not intended) time wasted on such a subpar product.

Perhaps remasters of classic PS2-era games would have been a better direction. Those titles had their charm and, with updated graphics and mechanics, could have truly shined. Maybe my nostalgia is clouding my judgment, but I can't help but feel that such a move would have been a more rewarding choice.

So...
Many...
SONGS!!!

Don't skip this on this, especially on a sale! So much value, so many genres, you will find something you will love here!

Best thing? There is no catch! You immediately unlock all songs, including future updates!

I could honestly spend hours just browsing the menu. This has so much more to offer than other rhythm games does when it comes to DLCs.

PCBS (PC Building Simulator) is a really great tool for visualising a build that you are either planning on making or just need something to tinker with. It is, however, not a tool for benchmarking the systems capability of games and the like. I will be going over this and much more in this review. I have been mostly playing in the free building option so I can not really tell you about the career mode this game has to offer, other reviewers might have gone over this. I will be breaking this review into different sections, so if there is one that particularily peaks your interest you can go ahead and skip to that one.

The different chapters of this review will be as following:

- Features and functionalities (this will include both the good and the bad parts of the building system that this game has implemented)
- How this game can be a tool for visualising your build
- Options for graphics and other settings
- Final thoughts and why you should consider getting this game

This game has a lot of features, the main one of course being the ability to build a PC. However, you can only build a desktop system so if you got this thinking you could build and repair laptops: sorry, but you can not. There are a lot of different options when it comes to the parts that you can choose for the PC: a ton of them. You can get different cases, CPUs, GPUs, different storages like HDD, SSD and M.2 drives, cooling options for the CPU as well as custom liquid cooling, motherboards, memory (RAM), power supplies, different coloured cables and pipes (you can choose between rigid or flexible) for the liquid cooling as well as the liquid itself (only the colour, not the properties of the cooling) and the connectors for the pipes, case fans, reservoirs, CPU blocks (liquid cooling), water cooled GPUs, radiators, and peripherals like keyboards and monitors.

However, there are some minor flaws like the lack of some GPUs and CPUs as well as other parts mentioned in the previous paragraph: but ultimately this should not be a big issue and is more of a "would be nice to have" rather than "needed to play the game" as this game already has a lot of these hardware options. More parts might come on later dates as this game is frequently updated and seems to be properly loved by the developers.

Some very minor issues with this game are things like how cables are managed. Sometimes you might end up with a fan that has a cable going inside of it because of how you chose to route a cable, making it clip through. This does not change anything but it does make you question how the fan is still operating without catching onto it. Flexible pipes can also sometimes not be routed properly and can end up clipping through other parts: but this time it won't actually work so you would have to come up with a different solution. However, there are rigid pipes that you can use instead and there is a lot of different ways to use them: you can create new bends or delete existing ones and place the corners wherever you want them to be, given they do not clip through other parts. (The entire case will have a red outline if there is a part being clipped through, the pipes can also not phase through each other, I have tried this.)

This game does also feature DLC, with most of them being entirely optional and not needed for certain parts of the game. The esports expansion lets you play the esports version of the career mode, which in my understandment is just a reskin of the career mode: you do not work for customers, but instead for players (for the esports teams) and managers. With the different DLCs you get different workshops. I got the ROG one, and it looks pretty nice.

There are as mentioned in the previous chapter a lot of different parts which makes the building part of this game a fun experience. You can choose from having a really low-end system to a fully blown out "RGB gaming" system that would look more like a really expensive christmas tree. But what does this ultimately mean for anyone? Well, this means that you can visualise your dream build or your current one, or anyone elses for that matter! This does not reflect how you should cable manage, or whether every part would work well with each other, but this game could serve as a tool for anyone who is interested in building their own pc for the first time. Again, let me stress this one more time: do NOT use this game as a way of determining if the parts would work well together, you should research this so you do not end up with bottlenecks or a under-powered system, as in the power supply not being sufficient enough to power on all components.

In any case, this game can be served as a way of visualising the build you want to make as well as where you want to place the pipes (rigid) for the liquid cooling so you can see where you can or should loop it.

This is a short chapter as you can see, which perfectly reflects the options for the visual graphics. What I am saying here, is: you only get to choose from five total options, being: very low, low, medium, ultra and fantastic. I could not find any difference from the lowest to the highest besides some edges on some objects looking less pixelated. This also did not change the average FPS I was getting, with and without VSync (144). You do however get other options like the ability to run the game with fullscreen on or off, different resolutions, and sensitivies. The gamed does have partial controller support, but I have yet to try this out myself.

So, should you get this game at all? I absolutely think you should consider it, if you can live without having a certain CPU, GPU or other components that is not in the game (yet)? The game does have regular updates, most of them seem to focus on bugs but some do add new content. The PCBS team is partnered with several very well known name brands like ASUS, AMD, NVIDIA and many more.

Some minor issues like cables clipping through other parts and no ability to move the cables where you want them could be a deal breaker if that is of extreme importance, but this does ultimately not change the gameplay, but only the aestethics of the build itself. You do get some options like liquid cooling which lets you choose the rigid pipes that can be moved around and this alone is a very cool feature that can lend a hand to those who needs to figure out where the pipes could go and what would look the best. The reservoir, or the pump for the liquid cooling can not be placed where you want it as this is decided by the case, as in the cases have pre determined spots.

Either way, the features and the possible systems you can build are almost endless. I have not taken into consideration of the different motherboards compatibilities, so I really do not have a number for each of them as well as the different cases. All I can say is, is that there are WAY too many to even imagine the possibilites of the different combinations.

The Monster Hunter Stamina Test is a multi-zone stamina capacity test that gets progressively more difficult as it continues. The full canteen benefit test begins in 20 seconds. Line up at area 6. The stamina decrease starts at Wiggly Litchi but will slowly progress to Waterblight each minute after you hear this signal. *Deafening roar.* Stamina should be recharged by the time you hear this signal. *Wild screech.* Remember to dodge in the correct direction as Tigrex may block a direction entirely. The test ends once you get stunlocked into hell three times. The test will commence at “Quest Start.” Ready, set, Quest Start! SCREEEEEEEE-
