Video Games General

are you talking about Valley?


gameplay trailers wish I knew why youtube vids won't load the thumbnail

Holy moly! Yes , that's the game!
 
The new Vampire Survivors DLC is kind of insane. First of all the map is absolutely massive. So much so that once you have all of it unlocked it's difficult to traverse the whole thing in one game even with the movement speed item. They added teleporters just to make sure you can get where you want to go without wasting time. Considering the map is taking a lot from SOTN I'm a little worried that the map might get bigger after the final boss fight. In terms of characters they've pulled from just about every Castlevania. Even characters from 64 and Lament of Innocence are in it this with their own unique weapons. Just working my way through unlocking all the new characters, even rushing a few, has taken about 8 hours. And I still have more to go.

This game was already a love letter to Castlevania and being allowed to actually make use of the IP has taken it several steps further.
 
Which just leaves one question: Is there a vampire in the game now? Or did the dev (and Konami) allow the running joke to continue?
 
At least two: The (what is a) man himself and his niece from Bloodlines.
And a step further, the man himself
Is voiced by Niel "Asterion" Newborn himself.

But what may be one of the best parts of the DLC is the music. Along with getting Konami Kukeiha Club's legendary tracks, Filippo Vicarelli went above and beyond with the remixes from across nearly 40 years of Castlevania music. Worth more than the price of admission.
 

The mad bastards did it! Foxhole gets air combat!

Now you, too, can enjoy the pleasure that is making bombing runs on rear-line logistics centers, or being a truck driver, living in fear of enemy bombers. Or the pleasures of flying air patrols, to defend your logistics against enemy bombers.

In all seriousness, I wonder how it will play. Bombs on Logi is already a given, as are paradropping Partisans into rear hexes, but the rest is more up in the air. If we can drop supply crates for friendlies, this might open the door for some really devious plays that makes the recent game-winning Warden Invasion of the Fingers look like child's play.

All in all? I really want to see how it plays out.
