THE T
the-temple-of-elemental-evil-review
Welcome to our The Temple of Elemental Evil Review. The masterminds of true Role Playing gave us Arcanum and Vampire the Masquerade Bloodline. For their third game, they joined forces with Wizards of the Coast and publishers Atari to give us their take on world of Dungeons and Dragons. Is it everything we expect? Is it on par with titans like Baldur's Gate 2, Icewind Dale 2, Neverwinter Nights 2 and Planescape: Torment?
Solasta Crown of the Magister is a spiritual successor of sorts to The Temple of Elemental Evil? How do they compare? Hopefully you'll find some of these answers in this video.This is a computer RPG review, it's not meant to comment on the D&D ruleset or on how well the game implemented it in its mechanics. This review is for a non RPG specialized gamer who's maybe hyped about Baldur's Gate III because of the trailers and footage of BG3 he or she has seen and who has maybe played Larian Studio's Divinity Original Sin II.Hopefully our review will help you decide. We still encourage to watch videos on Temple of Elemental Evil gameplay.This review is based on a criteria that assigns weights to aspects of the game that are particularly important for me. It is not meant to be the ultimate truth about the game. Classic Role Playing Games are my favorite video game genre for a reason and there are a few things I expect from them... You can check our system of categories in one of our early videos.https://youtu.be/QWD6AQWlIfw

Annapurna, el publisher que nos trajo What Remains of Edith Fingh y Outer Wilds (entre muchos, muchos otros), une esfuerzos con el desarrollador B-12 para traernos la historia de un gato que intenta regresar a casa que no es EN REALIDAD la historia de un gato que está intentando volver a casa sino una lección de compasión y empatía.

NeverKnowsBest video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4P4xJ34dmqQ
So NeverKnowsBest accurately identified Baldur's Gate, Fallout and Planescape: Torment as the most influential CRPGs of all time. Medieval fantasy and Post Apocalypse are arguably the most popular themes in the CRPG world and Baldur's Gate II and Fallout are its genre-defining pillars. That explains why we've had a slew of games who have tried hard to build upon the legacy of these timeless classics. Some games like Pillars of Eternity have tried to adhere very closely to their sources of inspiration in terms of, not only mechanics, but also aesthetics, level design and atmosphere. Some others like Underrail have stripped their source of inspiration to the core and used as the main ingredient for a dish that's rich in taste due to the plethora of other influences. The X-files, Blade Runner and Running Man influences are strong in this one!

GRAVE
graven-review.-really-good...-if-you
I’m here to set the record straight! Graven is not bad game, it’s also not a good game, it’s an excellent game. And I feel like I have to come to its defense here with a Ye Old Gamer recommends video, because if you give credit to all these negative reviews on Steam and all these Youtube videos that are shitting hard on Graven, you may end up giving it a pass. And that would be a pity, because if you have been following this channel, there’s a good chance that Graven is for you.
Graven is not a first-person shooter like Heretic, it’s not a puzzle game like Myst, it’s not a metroidvania like Symphony of the Night, it doesn’t fully commit do the player-driven approach of Deus Ex, and it’s definitely not a souls-like (like Dark Souls, doh!)
Instead, it borrows mechanics and principles from all these games to deliver a unique experience that is first and foremost about “figuring out” how to progress further into the game and it rewards players for being thorough in their exploration and bold in their experimentation.
Graven is about figuring out how to get rid of the bad guys in the most efficient way. It’s about figuring out how to progress further into the game’s quests and it’s about figuring out how to get around the various locations in which the game takes place.
And if you are part of the game's intended, you are going to have a blast with it. It's one of the best games of 2024 so far!

Everspace 2. Really? Why?
Well 1st I feel like we have been starved for story-based space themed RPGs for a long time. And the ones that we have gotten lately (looking at you Bethesda with your Starfield), are nothing to write home about, really.
And 2nd. Everspace 2 was marketed as a story-driven ARPG of all things in which you control a spaceship no less, rather than a character. No exactly in the same ballpark as Diablo IV or Path of Exile, more like Star Wars: Squadrons with RPG mechanics, but there are some itches that this game will scratch thoroughly for fans of the sub-genre
Neverknowsbest video on space exploration didn't mention this one... he probably didn't play it... no wonder... but say a while and listen... because maybe he should've. I still thoroughly recommend that you check out some footage on Everspace 2 gameplay to make out your mind.

TOP 1
top-10-games-with-the-best-hold-the-line
While I properly prepare the last entry in "Our road to Baldur's Gate 3" series, which you should know by now, is Divinity Original Sin 2, I thought I'd give you something to sink 15 to 30 minutes into...
So major Kirrahe gave his hold the line speech in Mass Effect and I remembered fondly every time I've held the line in video games. Defending my stronghold is one of my favorite things in video games. Some games have done it better than others, but these are my personal Favorites:
10. Champions of Norrath
9. Pathfinder Kingmaker
8. Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear
7. Expedition: Vikings
6. Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening
5. Wasteland 3
4. Neverwinter Nights 2
Watch the video to reveal the podium!

TAINT
tainted-grail-the-fall-of-avalon-early
If Open World RPGs like Morrowind, Oblivion or Skyrim were your thing... almost a decade ago... Tainted Grail The Fall of Avalon will surely scratch that itch thoroughly. But what if... the sole mention of the word RPG gets you excited about a new videogame but the phrase "it's like Skyrim"... gives you pause? Could this game be for you, then? Stay a while and listen.

ESO's video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTkrTIjTU44&t=67s
Wolfheart FPS's Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0CgXSQ1ipA&t=4641s
This game was developed by the creators of Tainted Grail: Conquest and its tabletop predecessors. Tainted Grail: Conquest took a great deal of inspiration from Slay the Spire. But it also built upon the Slay the Spire formula, turning it into the core mechanic of an awesome RPG that was deeply immersive and told great story, which means that Tainted Grail: Conquest was much more than an Arthurian Slay the Spire.
But, is Tainted Grail The Fall of Avalon more than Arthurian Skyrim?
