So after the most recent update and the fix of the in-game economy, I decided to revisit Red Dead Online with a friend that just got the game. Also, thanks for the free money and gold Rockstar. I used it to create a posse. I have to say some of my biggest complaints are still there but we will get to that. The economy feels much better, for example after a couple of story missions and some hunting I had enough money to buy a new gun which before the first update was not at all true. This was huge for me because finally, I could feed me and Thor (my horse) and not be bankrupt.

Tho sadly many of my complaints are still there. Really there isn’t much to do and the stuff there is to do many times is quickly ruined by other players. Hunting is kind of a chore since people will randomly shoot you and your animals despawn and people tend to hand out near the butchers.

Some of the weapons that are locked at higher levels also seem a bit odd, for example, the bow being locked at around level 9 or 10 seems weird considering its the best way to hunt and the fishing rod is locked at an even higher level. So if you just want to hang out with your friends in the world and hunt or go fishing it is not going to be a good time.

All that being said Rockstar has an excellent history of supporting their games and we all know there will be plenty of adjustments and things added as time goes on, and the game is still fun regardless. The potential of robbing banks and trains with friends is still exciting, so we just need to be patient. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

I have a small history with Magic the Gathering. I played quite a bit when I was younger with friends, and by younger, I mean like 20 years ago. So yes, we are going back away. Then I saw a commercial for this and thought why not check it out.

Graphically it is pretty nice, each card is nicely crafted and it is clearly established what each one does which has been a problem in a few card games I have played in digital format. Many times the print is too small and you end up guessing what to do with it.

Another nice thing is the tutorials explain very clearly what you should be doing and what the rules to Magic are in the first place. The game is easy to play and understand in this format and it is quite nice. Tho I will admit it doesn’t really feel the same as holding a deck in your hands and talking to your opponent face it face and sadly this cannot be replicated. Fans of Magic, however, looking for a fix would probably enjoy it and I think those looking to learn would get a pretty good grasp of it, but it is far from perfect. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Onrush is one of this months free games for PSN and admittedly I wasn’t too happy at first. Soma isn’t exactly popular here at Savior Gaming and I am not a huge fan of racing games. Onrush, on the other hand, isn’t even truly a racing game. This will take some explaining.

First, there isn’t a starting and finish line, you simply go. There are two teams trying to score points by making each other crash or even crashing the random cars also on the track tho those are so much easier to crush.

Second, not every race is the same. Some will have you cruising through checkpoints to add time to your clock while attempting to stop the other team from doing the same, scoring points by not letting your clock hit zero.

The controls and graphics are amazing and easy to look at. It is actually quite easy to see why this game has such a cult following. The music is pretty great as well with a nice soundtrack.

The game isn’t perfect tho. Admittedly you can only crash cars for so long before you want something else to do and pretty much everything is existence is locked, from clothes to tricks to even gestures and it takes time to unlock them. This isn’t a deal breaker, but its enough to put me off. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
