Movie Review: American Fright Fest (2018) — Once Upon The Wytching Hour

I watched Fright Fest (which is the title I watched it by but it’s American Fright Fest on IMBD) alone as the boy went out to a Halloween party. A small town hires Spencer Crowe, a legendary horror movie director whose fallen on hard times to produce a fright fest for the town in the […]

Day 30, Mermaids

wake mermaids  How many people grew up with Disney’s Little Mermaid? Remember feeling warm and captivated by the movie’s whimsical charm? Well, writer Scott Snyder brought us a dark, creepy version of the fabled underwater creatures he and Sean Murphy’s graphic novel The Wake. I loved the design of mermaids and how they are a ancient evil reawakened that will rule the waters of the world again. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Day 29, The Cenobites

Pleasure is a subjective  concept, as well as happiness, love, and arousal. The Cenobites are the embodiments of pleasure and pain that are summoned by solving the puzzle of the Lament Configuration. Deformed, cold hearted, and kept in a constant state of agony the Cenobites’s purpose is to present the solver of the box with ultimate joy. I love how much gravity accompanies them both in the The Hellbound Heart novella and the original Hellraiser movie. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Day 28,DeathClaw

deathclaw

The post- apocalyptic ruins of America are a dangerous place with the array of raiders, mutants, robots, and creatures- the most terrifying of which is the DeathClaw. What this creature’s origin pre-war is hard to tell, but these are the true apex predators of the Wastes. Incredibly strong with there namesake claws and equally deadly teeth and resist hides, these beasts are as good as a boss battle each encounter and fill you with dread. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Day 27,The Thing

thing 82

The Thing is one of the most fascinating creatures in horror for the solid fact it has no definite shape. This microscopic organism replicates whatever life it comes into contact with, and as a defense mechanism, it reforms itself into a deadly mix of all the beings it has come into contact with. The Thing is one of the craziest looking things  I’ve seen on screen and has unlimited possibilities when it comes to creativity. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Day 26, Pennywise

There is a terrifying vulnerability that comes from being a kid and well, let’s face it, clowns can be pretty damn creepy to begin with. As long as the town of Derry, Maine has existed there has been a secret threat that feasts on mankind, loving fear and children. This threat is Pennywise the Dancing Clown. Pennywise comes from a race of shape-shifting, psychic spider creatures that grow power from the emotions of there victims, namely fear here. Pennywise was never my favorite until I started reading the book and saw the 2017 remake, but I was hooked. So, are you ready to float?

Day 25, Father Gascoigne

On day 25, we remember that no man, no matter his purity of heart or the righteousness of his deeds, is safe from the darkness completely. Only the strongest may repeal its nature, while the majority fall victim to it’s embrace. Gascoigne was once one of the most loyal and fierce hunters in all of Yharnam and was blessed to have a loving wife and daughter. Gascoigne is a tragic beast who gave in to the power of the blood and became what he fought to destroy. What stuck out about the first true boss of Bloodbourne is his tragic tale and unassuming figure. Make no mistake, he’s extremely strong and he will wreck your ass, even if he is temporarily disarmed by the music box from his little girl, which calls back the man he once was. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Disgaea 4 Complete + (PS4 Review)

Hello everyone, it is that time of again where I give a huge thank you to my friends over at NIS America for hooking us up with a copy of Disgaea 4 Complete +. Disgaea 4 as actually the first game in the series I played so when I heard there was a version coming to the PS4 with everything that has ever been in the game included with updated graphics and sound I just had to have it. So getting to play it for weeks in advance, you have to belive I was more than excited.

To get us started, the story about a vampire named Valvatorez, a vampire that ruled as a tyrant before swearing to never drink human blood. Doing so cost him all his powers, and reduced him to nothing more than a lowly Prinny instructor, possibly the lowest job in all of Hades. However when the Corrupterment starts making life difficult for him and everyone else in Hades and causing the honorable name of demons to be sullied Valvatorez won’t sit by and allow it to happen, so he and his trusty right-hand werewolf Fenrich will recruit an army to set things right.

The gameplay is pretty standard Disgaea. It is a turned based strategy RPG that will see you attempt to outmaneuver and overpower your enemies through the use of magic, skills, and geoblocks that chance the attributes of the squares you stand on. Some are beneficial for you so as upping your attack or defense, others help your enemies in the same way. Some are equal opportunities for whoever is on them while others just make life miserable by warping people around or being impossible to pass them. These can be manipulated tho by moving or destroying blocks. You can even change the colors of squares by destroying different colored geoblocks to damage enemies and suck.

Graphically the game is beautiful, a nice step up from its PS3 release back in 2011. There is a new level of detail to the character models and the levels themselves which is great to see. The sound is also superior to the original release tho none of this is at all surprising considering the substantial time gap and system upgrade.

The game itself, however, has insane replayability, and can actually be as hard as you want. you can beat the game around level 60 or 70 if you want, or you can go all in and level up to level 9,999 and do insane amounts of damage up into the hundreds of thousands. If you want you can create a party of pirates to harass other players in the item world. The item world lets you level up your items to insane levels and increase their powers while leveling up your characters. There are also at least 30 characters to unlock and entire dungeons designed just for the post-game.

Truthfully any fan of Disgaea or strategy RPG’s in general need to pick this one up, the game is a solid 9/10 and I will be playing it for a long time to come. Best wishes, may the gaming gods bring you glory, and all is for my lord.
