Heavy Rain

-
So recently my brother's ex left her PlayStation 4 at my house. She's like let me know if there's any games you want to play so I'm like cool I'll see what you have. What she had was like no space, so I bought an external to go with it. And download all the games that she owned. Which took forever for just 18 games, like why does downloading games suck so much.

Anyway, one of the games I tried out was called Heavy Rain, I never heard of it before so it was pretty much just me randomly playing everything since I haven't had a PlayStation since PS2.

It was like a pick your ending, your choices matter type of game.

 So you move around four characters and their parts of the story. I will say the beginning hour is a little drawn out, but the story draws you in. Other than that, you should know I don't mind graphics, what I care about is story. gameplay, and the controls. More or less the controls more than anything. In this game the controls are weird. First to move anywhere you have to hold down R2 while moving the stick. There are lots of random actions you have to perform, either by holding down buttons, pressing them fast, or jerking the controller a certain way. But that is also how you interact with your environment as well. By moving the stick in certain directions. Some of the scenes and actions I had to repeat multiple times before I got it down. Then I'm sure my failing those affected some of the story as well. Just like your choices and actions change the story. I did a playthrough and I'm interested in trying another and going a different way. So the game has great replay value. 

It was originally for the PS3 but was remastered for the PS4. I hope you guys will enjoy it as much as I did.

Evie - Cosplay

Evie Evie is a playable character in the game Paladins: Champions of the Realm. It's a free-to-play game that you can play on well pretty much anything, Steam, PlayStation, Switch, and Xbox. Developed by Hi-Rez Studios, and Evil Mojo Games this was mainly squad-based FPS.  There are a few modes but the one I played the most was team vs team where me and a few buddies would team up and have to defend a cart that would slowly move through the level. Or if you were on the other team destroy the cart. The goal is to either prevent the cart from getting into the goal area or to stop it.  Cosplay Background Evie was one of the characters I enjoyed not only looks but also the dialogue. Of of my favorites is "I just want to live a normal life, without having to blow everybody up... Oh well!" The abilities she has were fun to play with but I always screwed it up. She had a basic attack from her ice staff. She could turn into an ice block to become immune to dam

Enshrouded - Casual Gaming Review

Enshrouded This is an action-adventure survival base-building game. It was developed and published by Keen Games GmbH. This demo key was given to me by the developers of a program called Keymailer. The demo was out for Next Fest. So, thank you for the key! Gameplay You wake up in a capsule inside a temple. You've been asleep for a long time. As you run out you pretty much have nothing, your first task being to make a base.  As you make your way to the waypoint on the map the game goes through basic concepts. Throwables can blow up and change the terrain as well as the other items. I dug myself in a hole at one point.  A lot of things are breakable so once I got something I could swing (a sword) I started to hit everything I could. Which was good because I was getting all sorts of materials.  There is something called well enshrouded, it's an area that is tainted. Having a light with you decreases the rate at which it affects you. But it's pretty much if
