Lyke Gaming - Who Doesn't?

General flow Naruto Shippuden Storm 4 did away with most everything that is not combat, there are no RPG elements, no exploration or anything much, even the story's told through fights and quick-time events, so it's a very simple game. Even so, the game works, because the cast is the renowned ninjas of the Naruto franchise after all.  Although the story is played through in an extremely bare-bones way, I feel like it still brings out a bit of the nostalgia in me, especially that one Naruto vs Sasuke fight at the end.  Gameplay The main way to experience this game is definitely with friends or family, I bought this game sole for the fact that it is a great local vs game to play on my PS4. Honestly me and my brothers had our fun on this game, the one thing I enjoyed the most, is definitely discovering special interactions and combo ultimates. And out of all the combo ultimates, I definitely like the Hokage one the most, the Hyuuga clan combo ultimate is also p...

Environment Assassin's Creed Odyssey is set in ancient Greece, where there are so many islands, and so many statues and temples. Honestly, aesthetically, the whole map is incredibly beautiful and scenic, but at some point in time, I just stopped being able to appreciate the beauty of it, it all became just like noise to me, except for the places significantly different locations, such as the slums on the outskirts of Athens, one of those marble mine or perhaps the Colosseum, other than that, as beautiful as the other places in the game are, they have not managed to capture my attention much. Maybe it's because I've played the game for too long, or maybe it's because, structurally, most of the cities use the same, or at least extremely similar looking building design, the streets look similar, the temples which you synchronize the locations look similar.  Although I do understand it's because the game is trying to look realistic, but still, I feel as if the...

Environment The stages in this game takes puts you in all sorts of different places, Chinatown, pubs, abandoned buildings, hotels, secret underground research facilities and more! Infiltrating and killing people is quite the thrill in this game, discovering secret ways to assassinate or hidden rooms are always so exciting. Gameplay The gameplay would depend on the difficulty you choose to play on, there are 5 in total, ranging from being able to just go in guns blazing and killing everyone to needing to plan your every move carefully to prevent being killed.   I'll talk briefly about my experience where I completed the game on normal, the 2nd easiest difficulty. To put it in a few words, it was immensely fun! Although you're encouraged to keep casualties to a minimum and only killing the main targets, I found killing and eliminating threats to be a more enjoyable approach. I'd usually circle around perimeters and eliminating as many threats unseen as possib...

General Watcher of Samsara is a custom map in Dota 2, it is also a game where I've spent quite some time recently on, at its core, Watcher Of Samsara is a Tower Defense game, but what makes it so special is that it requires the players to have some degree of basic knowledge of the Dota 2 to succeed, due to the fact that the game builds upon Dota 2 hero units and items mostly from Dota 2. So, if you like Dota 2, this is a great TD, but if you're unfamiliar with Dota 2, you might need to take some time to familiarize yourself with the heroes and items. Gameplay In essence, Watcher of Samsara is a Tower Defense game, which you have to build an assortment of towers to prevent the creep count on the map from exceeding a certain threshold. The units are categorized into different rarity: N, R, SR and SSR,which is quite a unique approach in the TD genre, because TD games usually only require you to be familiar with the unit types and tower types to achieve success but Watc...

Environment The game is mostly set in a fantasy version of Feudal Japan, with demons and monsters roaming everywhere, the game takes on a dark and eerie vibe, not unlike the SoulsBorne games, and it does a very good job of delivering the dark beauty of the world that it is in. The ambiance is nice and enemies always seem to fit right into the maps, making it an enjoyable game to walk around in....when you're not being killed by the monsters, lol.  Gameplay Nioh is definitely a content packed game with a variety of weapons types, skill trees and guardian spirits that you can choose from to cater to your playstyle. In terms of weapons, there are swords, dual swords, axes, spears, Kusarigama, Odachi and Tonfa, all of them have their unique skill trees and provide you with quite a different playstyle, but from what I've played, I feel like sword is the most versatile for me. The mechanics I think were great are the Ninja skills and Onmyo skils, Ninja skills are tru...

Environment Monster Hunter: World is one of the most beautiful games I've seen in recent years, all of the different maps always feel so vibrant and alive when you walk around in them, the Iceborne expansion does not disappoint in this aspect of the game, the icy map Hoarfrost Reach is a magnificent addition to the New World. One can seriously get lost in the maps themselves and spend hours and hours just exploring and going around collecting materials and fishing! Fishing is definitely one of my favorite side activity to do in games, and it is in MHW, which makes me appreciate the game all the more. Not to mention the music, the music really puts you in the right mood at all times, relaxing music for exploration and upbeat music for battle! Gameplay Iceborne did not only bring in new monsters for Hoarfrost Reach, but also quite a few for the other existing maps as well, a total of 27 new, returning, sub-species and variants are added to original number of 31 ...

Environment The game's set in a post-apocalypse earth where mech animals roam the land and metallic  ruins and abandoned buildings litter the map, and the humans set back to a more primitive time, using bows and spears as their main weapons. The map is a pretty wondrous place to explore, with a decent variety of biomes for you to walk/ride around in, and it is always a pleasant surprise to encounter newer species of mech animal. Not to mention how beautiful it always seems to look, no matter where you go, there's always gonna be a photo-worthy view! A beautiful and mysterious place that intrigues you to move forward the more you explore.  Gameplay Honestly. the game is harder than I initially thought it would be. I didn't expect to hit a speed bump on the "normal" difficulty, but I did, I died several times to the more aggressive mechs like the Snapmaws and the Bellowbacks, I swear, the Bellowbacks have such deceptive looks, they look damn weak, but t...

  Environment/ General feel The game allows you to explore several small maps where the various band members will hang out and talk, you can tap on them to listen to a variety of casual conversations to listen to. This is one of my favorite feature in this game, you can get a better feel of the band member's personality and relationships with one another.  The characters from the various bands all have their individual charm that keeps you playing to know more about their story! My personal favorite so far is definitely the carefree and air-headed "Hello, Happy World!", yes, the band's name is literally Hello, Happy World! The dynamic of 3 extremely air-headed girls and a DJ in a bear costume that's the voice of reason in the band, yes, the girl in the bear costume Deejay-ing is the logical and practical one! Their story line never fails to bring a smile to my face.   Gameplay The gamplay itself is a simple tapping rhythm game with 7 keys,...

Environment The map of the game is actually pretty big, you can travel to different areas filled with they very own personality and types of different Digimon. But although there are quite a lot of different areas that you can go to, none of them actually strike me as particularly memorable, although, I was quite invested in the town area where you train your Digimon, feed them and collect agricultural resources. I was really excited when the place transformed from a small bare-bones village into a rather magnificent town! Although the graphics can seem a bit dated, the Digimon themselves still look magnificent to me.  Gameplay The gameplay is solely focused on the breeding of your Digimon partners, in this game, you get to have 2 partners to follow you around, you can get them up from their baby forms right up to their mega forms, and you’ll have to pay attention while training them so that you’ll get the digivolution that you ...

Environment The game is set in London, a London that's ravaged by demons, despite that, the maps still managed to draw my attention from time to time, the city that's completely unrecognizable in places where demonic goo, tentacles and roots, the places do look marvelous and menacing at the same time, truly a fitting map for DMC 5  Gameplay The gameplay is going to be separated into 3 parts, the parts that you play as the 3 main characters of the game, Nero, Dante and V, they all have very distinctive playstyles which may affect your experience in the game.  First let's look at Nero , the first one you get to use, DMC 5 changed Nero to have a slightly more varied playstyle, by equipping him with a plethora of different "Devil Breakers" since his loss of his original demonic arm, the "Devil Bringer". While I do agree that the Devil Breakers are a breath of fresh are for Nero's rather monotonic gameplay back in DMC 4, I do ...
