The first set of DLC has come out for Valhalla, titled Wrath of the Druids. The expansion sees Eivor on his way to Ireland where you will pick up a new story arc and will see the amazing expanse that is Ireland.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

To play the DLC you will have to complete one of the two first story arcs in England and an option to sail to Ireland will come via a stranger who will arrive in your camp. The power level in Ireland is 55 but it will adjust to your character level. This means you don't have to progress that much in the main game to enjoy the DLC. If you have played through Valhalla you will be higher than 55.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n

Ireland is a huge new area you get to explore, the map is impressive. The terrain is a lot more rugged and mountainous than the original game. If you are from Ireland or have visited Ireland, you will familiar with the locations which is a nice touch. As a gamer from Ireland, it's novel to travel to in-game places you know and have visited. The game does a good job of having that Irish vibe with the voice acting and lore of Ireland portrayed well. Irish landscapes are well rendered and you get a sense of life in the Viking era of Ireland. A mixture of Latin, Irish and English is spoken too. Druids add a sense of mysticism and mystery to the proceedings too. The architecture is faithfully recreating buildings of that era. You will be able to equip new unique items such as clothing and weapons too. You will encounter new enemies, animals throughout the DLC. Ubisoft gets the mix of a new place to play through with solid gameplay, stunning visuals and intriguing story arcs to boot. It was a joy to play and see places I was familiar with. There are new abilities and new gameplay mechanics and buildings too. It's a really solid offering and it adds to the game.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n

The standalone price for the season pass for Valhalla costs \u20ac39.99.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The season pass is included in the Gold and Ultimate editions of Valhalla.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The season pass will include access to Wrath of the Druids (released 13th May) and The Siege of Paris which will be released later in the year.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n

While the standalone price for the season pass may seem high, the Wrath of Druids is sizeable about 13 hours of main quests and 5 hours of side quests. It depends on if you need another fix of Valhalla, and if you do I think you will get your money's worth, this only part 1 of the DLC. I liked the new arcs, the additional skills, new enemies and the general Irish feel about the DLC. I have been to a lot of these places so it was interesting seeing the \"Viking\" version in the game. The voice acting, mysticism, the darkness all have been executed well. It was a joy to play the DLC. I remembered how much I have enjoyed Vahalla after I revisited the game via the DLC. I'm looking forward to the next set of DLC.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The Roller Champions Beta was a brief window into the new IP from Ubisoft. It's based around roller derby being merged into 3 versus 3 battle royale. The game combines elements of roller derby, racing games and sports games. I can draw comparisons in terms of gameplay of Rocket League, you and your team pit yourself against others online. In this game, you take control of a player instead of a vehicle though.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n

Roller Champions is based on roller derby, but this takes a 3 person team format, you have to capture the ball and put it into the goal. It's not that straightforward, when you capture the ball you must navigate a lap of the course before you can score. You must avoid enemy players to get the goal to open. You can go it all alone by dodging others or pass it to fellow team members, if you (and your team) manage that the goal will open and you get the opportunity to score. Opposition players can push, kick and take the ball off you. The game is based on these 3 versus 3 formats, where you can use your teams to pass the ball.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n

The graphics have a shine and you get a real sense of momentum when you play. You feel the crash and come together as players hustle for the ball to gain possession. It's fast-paced and there is always something happening in the game. There is rarely a dull moment. All of this combined with the solid online netplay and plenty of people on the servers was a great experience. The game is a mix of a racer, beat 'em up and sports game, these elements make Roller Champions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n

I'm not sure if the balance is perfect but I think minor tweaks are required for defending teams, I feel the offensive teams are a bit overpowered. Apart from this point, it's an enjoyable experience. The game is straightforward to pick and the controls are simple too. Before you know it you are stuck in the action as well. It will be interesting to see how the final game turns out, this beta does give a good flavour of what we can look forward to.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

It's a real throwback to one of my favourite gaming genres, I know you don't see many side-scrolling beat em ups apart from the odd indie game. I love side-scrolling beat 'em ups.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe game is styled and themed with all things Scott Pilgrim from the characters, the locations and the bosses you meet throughout. Thematically it gets across the comic aspects of Scott Pilgrim well, the Scott Pilgrim vibe is omnipresent. The humour, language, sounds and soundtrack all fit in seamlessly to the game. It looks slick and has that 16-bit retro vibe going. Even the playstyle and gameplay does evoke memories of Streets of Rage on the Megadrive. The main story mode follows a couple of environments which lead to a boss and this formula continues for each boss. The gameplay is simple and straightforward.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe game does support up to 3 extra players playing locally or online. The extra game modes of Zombies, Dodgeball and Battle Royale do add some much-needed variety to the single-player. My favourite extra game is Boss Rush Mode which has you play all the bosses from the game in a row. I'm a major fan of game bosses in general and this is probably why I love it. Each boss has their moves and secret moves and is the best set of enemies in any game.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhile Scott Pilgrim does a lot right: the style, theme and the beat em' classic for gameplay. The main game doesn't have that depth of variation to keep you glued to the game, after 2 or 3 levels you have pretty much seen the guts of the game and what is on offer. I'm a huge fan of side-scrolling beat 'em ups and I enjoyed it but didn't love it. However, the addition of online, local play and modes such as Zombies do add some much-needed variety and longevity to the game.<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 6\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game - Complete Edition Review","post_excerpt":"Side-scrolling beat 'em up","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"scott-pilgrim-vs-the-world-the-game-complete-edition-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:59:20","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:59:20","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=205905","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":false,"total_page":1},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_22"};

You (Dani Rojas) are thrown into the deep end trying to escape the military and police forces of Yara. There is a revolution in the air; you and your guerrilla comrades are ready to fight off Ant\u00f3n Castillo and his evil forces.<\/span>\r\n\r\nFar Cry 6 just extends the current format and gameplay style of Far Cry games. If you are new to Far Cry, it's a huge open world that you play the majority of the time in the first person. You can craft upgrades by collecting resources and upgrading your arsenal as you progress through the game. It's very much a first-person shooter where you have a host of vehicles and horseback to navigate the world.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIf you have played previous versions, you can see this is an update to the last version with a new storyline and area (Yara) to explore. The game must be thought of as a mercenary style game where you slowly do tasks: take over checkpoints, sabotage the enemy, rob supplies etc... to gain influence over Yara and the inhabitants. It's a massive (I don't think this does it justice) open world that is stunning. You will take pictures and stop to admire the views during the game. It just looks superb, and every time I play, I notice new things. Yara is a tropical paradise that consists of a set of islands with volcanoes, mountains, jungles and beaches. Each aspect of the terrain and surroundings is captured in stunning detail with the addition of animals, the army and police to greet you at every corner.<\/span>\r\n\r\nUbisoft has done a fantastic job with presentation, menus and general navigation in the game. They understand Far Cry and the little tweaks like quick travel all over the map-reduce the grind of travelling this huge map. The game is polished and has the refinements you expect from a series that has been around for so long.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe world is chaotic, action-packed and just mayhem at times. The game runs at dynamic 4K at 60 FPS. The story deals with themes of oppression, nationalism, freedom and authoritarianism. There is a close link to Yara and South American countries and their struggles. This is ubiquitous in the game. The game has a focus on revolutions and days gone by. The main story does capture these themes as well as the struggle of the people. The voice acting and acting is fantastic; it helps drive the story along. The gameplay is more a mercenary style where you play as you see fit to accomplish missions. There is a dichotomy between gameplay and the story. The story tries to paint Ant\u00f3n as a conflicted leader in parts with his son by his side. However, the vast amount of people suffering under his tyranny doesn't tally with any sympathy for Ant\u00f3n.<\/span>\r\n\r\nThe game is fun, the explosions, the helicopters and just all-out action are fun. The game doesn't push the envelope in terms of new game-play or new game mechanics, it does Far Cry and first-person shooters fantastically well.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFar Cry 6 is extremely enjoyable; there is a lot to do in the world in between the main missions and plentiful side missions. If you have played Far Cry before, you may think this is more of the same. The world and narrative are done well, the ruthless dictator, good versus bad and lots of missions to expand the story. The game is chaotic fun. The crafting isn't overburdening for me which is great; I picked the majority of resources while doing missions and gaining control of the island. There is repetition in taking over key elements from the army but the sheer amount of missions help to break up the repetition of side missions. The game isn't groundbreaking; you have seen all of this done before but, it's great fun with an easy learning curve, you are in and doing missions within a few minutes of starting the game that should be applauded.<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 7.5\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Far Cry 6 Review","post_excerpt":"Open-world adventure","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"far-cry-6-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:43:21","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:43:21","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=207004","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":206744,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-08-13 20:48:52","post_date_gmt":"2021-08-13 19:48:52","post_content":"

The next installation set of DLC has come out for Valhalla. The siege of Paris has you moving from Ravensthorpe to Paris in the next chapter of this game. There is another threat on the horizon for Eivor with King Charles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
To play the DLC you will have to complete one of the two first story arcs in England and an option to sail to Francia will be available at your camp. The recommended power level for the siege of Paris is 200 but, the game will adjust if you have a higher level. If you have played the Ireland DLC, it's similar as it's a standalone new area separate from England.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
Francia, which is ruled by Charles the Fat, provides the new terrain and landscape you can explore; the Seine and medieval Paris is there to be seen. The staples of Assassin Creed are there such as the viewpoints, the parkour, and frenetic combat. Francia is big and filled with castles, churches, and hidden subterranean environments to navigate. The roaming countryside and some villages are where you and your trusty steed will navigate between Paris and other cities. French accents and tones are encountered as you talk to passers-by and as you encounter the many characters of this world. The world is a sublime mixture of the dark underworld with brightness interspersed, the game is primarily dark as the focus is battle for Francia.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
I love the infiltration missions whereby you can decide how you approach the missions and how you will assassinate your targets. They have made this mission type enjoyable, and you can either act in a stealthy manner or go all guns blazing. The infiltration missions let you solve several quests to find out more about your target and its weaknesses. At this point, you have all the information you need to make your decision to proceed, this happens throughout the game.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
The architecture is faithfully recreating buildings of that era. You will be able to equip new unique items such as clothing and weapons too. You will encounter new enemies, animals throughout the DLC. Ubisoft gets the mix of a new place to play with solid gameplay, stunning visuals, and intriguing story arcs to boot. It was a joy to play and see places I was familiar with. There are new abilities and new gameplay mechanics and buildings too. It's a solid offering and it adds to the game.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
The standalone price for the Valhalla season pass costs \u20ac39.99. The season pass is included in the Gold and Ultimate editions of Valhalla.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
The season pass will include access to Wrath of the Druids and The Siege of Paris which will be released later in the year.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
The siege of Paris DLC is about 10 hours of main quests and about 5 hours of side missions. If you are a big fan of Valhalla or enjoyed it as much as I did, the price is reasonable for the two-part DLC. I enjoyed the reprisal of the infiltration missions and more mission-based assassinations which reminds me of the original. The story is intriguing, and you do feel a part of the story where your actions have an impact on the world. The production and voice acting, the darkness all have been executed well. This DLC just reminded me again how much I enjoyed playing Valhalla.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

It's a real throwback to one of my favourite gaming genres, I know you don't see many side-scrolling beat em ups apart from the odd indie game. I love side-scrolling beat 'em ups.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe game is styled and themed with all things Scott Pilgrim from the characters, the locations and the bosses you meet throughout. Thematically it gets across the comic aspects of Scott Pilgrim well, the Scott Pilgrim vibe is omnipresent. The humour, language, sounds and soundtrack all fit in seamlessly to the game. It looks slick and has that 16-bit retro vibe going. Even the playstyle and gameplay does evoke memories of Streets of Rage on the Megadrive. The main story mode follows a couple of environments which lead to a boss and this formula continues for each boss. The gameplay is simple and straightforward.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe game does support up to 3 extra players playing locally or online. The extra game modes of Zombies, Dodgeball and Battle Royale do add some much-needed variety to the single-player. My favourite extra game is Boss Rush Mode which has you play all the bosses from the game in a row. I'm a major fan of game bosses in general and this is probably why I love it. Each boss has their moves and secret moves and is the best set of enemies in any game.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhile Scott Pilgrim does a lot right: the style, theme and the beat em' classic for gameplay. The main game doesn't have that depth of variation to keep you glued to the game, after 2 or 3 levels you have pretty much seen the guts of the game and what is on offer. I'm a huge fan of side-scrolling beat 'em ups and I enjoyed it but didn't love it. However, the addition of online, local play and modes such as Zombies do add some much-needed variety and longevity to the game.<\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 6\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game - Complete Edition Review","post_excerpt":"Side-scrolling beat 'em up","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"scott-pilgrim-vs-the-world-the-game-complete-edition-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:59:20","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:59:20","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=205905","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":false,"total_page":1},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_22"};
