Skull and Bones is one of those games that has been in the work awhile, in fact we saw it at E3 2017 as well as this year, and I heard about it before that. It has been pushed back at least once that I have written about. Ubisoft Skull and Bones Delayed

That isn’t necessarily a bad thing tho as they clearly want to learn from the mistakes of Sea of Thieves. So far Skull & Bones is shaping up nicely, as the game looks beautiful and seems to have a nice mix of needing to work together, but also giving you plenty reason to take the chance and turn on each other when needed. The real question here however is, will you be punished for doing it needlessly? One of my big issues with Sea of Thieves was that sometimes people just did stuff because they could and it was really a detriment to the game, and that was on top of there really being no content to the game. Either way, enjoy the trailer and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Admittedly I am not a huge fan of this series, and I think it’s because the fan base annoys me to no end. The game is fun but I have spent years listening to fans claim it was the greatest fighting game of all time while simultaneously listening to them slam each iteration for any number of reasons from the characters to the controls, the lack of Gamecube controller. You name it there was always something. The game is however fun and unpredictable.

I won’t bother the usual showing you guys the video from E3 tho, by now either you have seen it, or you won’t bother watching it because it is long as hell. So I will just touch some of the highlights that I thought were impressive. First, they are all here. Every character that has ever been in the game as DLC or just part of the game is now a playable character, and so is Ridley. This is amazing and something fans have been wanting, and yes there are new characters as well.

Another great thing fans have been crying for, and I do mean crying, is they can now use a Gamecube controller. That can now also be checked of their wishlist, and honestly I don’t think people realize the significance of this. I doubt they gave smash fans an entire controller for themselves. I think we will now see Gamecube games on the Switch. Just my thoughts. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

The quiet man is an interesting concept to say the least. According to the press release from Square Enix “THE QUIET MAN takes players beyond sound and words to deliver an immersive story-driven cinematic action experience, which players can complete in one sitting, seamlessly blending high-production live action, realistic CG and pulse-pounding action gameplay.”

Now this all sounds pretty cool, but at the same time, this could be pretty awful. We have seen games like this before turn out pretty bad when they try to blend real life stuff into game play. Tho the reveal trailer (below) was pretty damn amazing. It will release on Steam and PlayStation 4 in 2019. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Jump Force is a Shonen Jump fans wet dream come true. An evil force, and all their favorite characters unite to fight it. I won’t lie, I am I huge dragon ball fan. Loved everything from The original thru super. This game however to me, just doesn’t need to exist. But I see why it does, there is money in it. And that is honestly all this is, one huge cash grab. I have heard these arguments before, who would win in a fight X character or Y character, and if you go into most comic book stores they will happily explain to you why one or 2 people in this game will probably kill everyone else no issue. But, that being said it looks good, and will most likely play beautifully and at the end of the day that is all the fans will care about, and if there is a beta, I will sign up. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Just Cause 4, what can be said about this series that can’t be said about this series that can’t be summed up with the fact that I have shot cows up into the air for half an hour for the fun of it. I have waited for bikers to drive by and stuck them to buildings. Why?  I don’t really know. See when you give gamers the option to do basically whatever they want, gamers will do the most random things they can think of. Yes we will do the story, but we will do other insane stuff to.

This brings me to Just Cause 4. They have now given us bigger and better ways to do all the messed up things we have all loved to do. Tho they seem to have gone above and beyond in certain areas. The game looks beautiful, as expected, but now we have weather. I know, lots of games have weather. However now we have things like a tornado ripping buildings apart and not just small scale. This is something you can no use to your advantage, just don’t be flying anywhere near it because apparently you will get sucked in. Of course there is a video, and it is below. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Black Desert made its showing at E3 for the Xbox one. Here is that beautiful trailer.

And make no mistake, it does look beautiful. But no need to fear Playstation fans, it isn’t likely to be an Xbox exclusive, at least not for long, as at one point at least there was a PS4 version being worked on. For more details on that and the number of players check polygon.

The other thing to point out is if you look up many of the reviews, they aren’t that great. For example on steam its at about 6/10 and metacritic puts it at a 73 and 7.3. Now to down a game before it comes out, but the game is already out for a fairly substantial amount of time. Is isn’t unreasonable to assume this won’t get any better and there isn’t much reason to get excited about it. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Look you read the name, so you already know this is going to be messed up. It is exactly what it sounds like. This is a Battle Royale. The rapture happens, those that don’t get taken, kill each other. Last man standing wins. Watch the hilarious and amazing trailer wins.

Anno 1800 is an enigma in gaming. It is a strategy game, but it is also a city designer and simulation game/strategy game combined with a ship combat game. Do you want to simply trade? Be an oppressive war monger? Do you simply want to be somewhere in the middle? These are some of the choices you will need to make. For more info watch the trailer below, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
