Livet Som Gamer

A new week is here, ful of news. The latest Smash bros character Hero is out. An interesting character with a lot of skills. The 4.0 update is also here and brings with it, very easy mode, voting, timer on final smash and online tournaments.  Rockstar is having some tax problems with there studio in England. It seems like they haven't payed taxes in ten years. The developer Respawn thinks Fallen Order is similar to Sekiro. The Switch is getting a new big title. We can only hope it looks better then The Witcher 3 does on the Switch.     

The new Fire Emblem is out and we have a first impression for you! In the spirit of strategy and tactics we continue the episode with this as a topic. We have all played a lot of strategy games, but what makes a good strategy game? What is superior, real time or turn based? We also take a look at some of the most classic of strategy games, the biggest and what the future holds.

Nintendo is the the spotlight this week. They apparently have some controllers that are not behaving in an appropriate manner and could end up costing them a lot. Overwatch have revealed there new character and abilities. This is not all as changes are coming to the overall gameplay. Siege is also in ful swing with character changes and bugg fixes. They have also talked about the release window for Quarantine. Don't forget that Fire Emblem Three Houses is releasing this weekend. Allt the best until next time.

Today were taking about one of the defining parts of game creation, graphics. When the developer puts together a game they choose how to portray their game through the graphics, this is how we get to experience there creation. Hyper-graphics in games have been defined by big titles like Half Life 2, Crysis and Battlefield. They gave us some of the biggest leaps and got stuck in our memories. Smaller games have the advantage of trying different and interesting ides like Gris, Ori, Cuphead and countless other games. But what does the future hold? What is the next big thing?   

We have created a total of 100 episodes! We have been doing this podcast for over one and a half year now and is still having a blast. In this episode I challenge Christian and Fredrik to guess what we talked about in a few old episodes just based on the name of the episodes. Fredrik is the genius behind all of the names for the episodes and knowing what the episode is about isn't always the easiest. It's Wednesday which also means news. Nintendo is still trailing with info after E3. A Switch with a bigger battery sounds interesting and a late release date for which game? Game stores still exist but for how long? Gamestop is doing everything they can but is it enough?   

Wow Classic is soon upon us while Final Fantasy XIV just got the new expansion Shadowbringers. That's why we in this episode do a deep dive in the mmo genre. The genre that brings the biggest crowd of players, have the biggest events and more ways to play the same game than anyone else. We compare the free to play model vs the subscription vs buy it then play it for free. What mmo games are on the rise and what does the future hold, this and more in episode 86.

 We are complete! In the sense that Christian is back from vacation. Wednesday means news and Nintendo is delivering the biggest news this past week with a new Switch. Steam summer sale is over and done with more confusion than anything els. Last episode we talked about Monster Hunter World and the budget version Dauntless. Dauntless is actually getting some new content and some very familiar skins. Amazon is trying to make a name for itself in the gaming world with a Lord of the rings mmo.

We are back on the hunt for big monsters. We have bought Monster Hunter Word for the second time but now for PC. We take a look at this game again and compare it to the console versions and Dauntless.  Why did this game succeed so well? What is it with this game that made us buy it again? What is the games biggest flaws?

A few games we play right now are geting some new content. Rainbow Six Siege have a new game mode, Word War Z have a new difficulty and Monster Hunter World is soon geting its first real expansion.. wait.. and last expansion. Is it just us or does Blue Protocol look like a Tales online? Overwatch is finally ending the GOATS era and what's up with live action movies based on games?!

Siege is an etablated multiplayer game that is still going strong. We have played the game on an off since the release. When we now started playing the game again we felt like an episode would be perfect. One off us have completed Gears of War 4 and what is this game Underlords everyone is talking about?

EA is in the news this week with some surprising mechanics. PUBG is making changes and maybe a sequel? Epic talk strategy vs Steam, Nintendo have not forgotten the Wii U yet and what would a summer be without a Steam summer sale. This and more in this weeks newsreel.

Cadence of Hyrule is out and we have played it! As always in our midweek newsreel we talk about the latest new from the gaming world. Nintendo did not give us any new models of the Switch this E3 but rumors still exist. With a lightsaber it should be easy to cut of limbs but Disney won't allow it in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. The new Avengers game from Square Enix looked awesome at E3 but the latest news about the game disassembled our hopes fast. 

This years E3 is over and done with and had some really good briefings. We got a lot of dates, new games, more content for some, while other games got to little. We had surprises like Keanu Reeves, Trials of Mana, a follow up to Breath of the Wild and many more. E3 this year was of course missing Sony, Skull and Bones, Pikmin, Dragon age 4 to name a few. We talk about this and our overall impression of this years E3 in episode 83.

Sometimes you just get what you want, we finally got a remake of Seiken Densetsu 3, aka Trials of Mana. In the third episode of this years E3, we take a look at Ubisoft, Square Enix and Nintendo. All three have had the briefings with loads of games. All three showed of new games, Roller champions, Avengers, Oninaki, Luigi's mansion 3 and many more. We also got titles that we didn't se coming which was nice. We have our favorit games from this year, do you?

The second day brings lots and lots of games. The Xbox briefing brought with it a hole bunch of game reveals, like Blair Witch, Psychonauts 2, 12 minutes, a new Tales game and many more. We got release dates for Ori, Cyberpunk 2077, Gears of War 5 and several others. We also got some information an a cutscene of Halo Infinite. Bethesda also had there briefing, revealing a few new games, Orion and more information on Doom Eternal and other games that have already been released. We discuss all of these games and more in this episode.

And so it begins, E3 is here and EA is out first. The new Star Wars game is called Fallen Order and we got too se 15 minutes of gameplay. EA also revealed new content for both Apex Legends and Battlefield V with some surprises mixed in. Then you have the standard games that EA always have with them, Madden, Fifa and Sims. This and more in Part one of E3.

Google is doing what Google does best, trying to take over the world, this time with Stadia. E3 is soon  upon us and the rumors are falling like stars. The Xbox line up is almost revealed and Nintendo have announced the games that will be playable on the floor.  Have you ever wondered what fragrant the Xbox would have? Xbox have teamed up with Lynx to create body spray, deodorant, and shower gel with te Xbox brand. 

How long is the longest game you have played? How short is the shortest? Why are fps games almost always on the shorter side while games like Final Fantasy are long and dragged out. We talk about some of the longest games we have played and compare them to the shortest we have played. This and more in episode 79.

It's that time of the week when we deliver news from the gaming world. Have you seen the latest Death Stranding trailer? We have a hard time knowing what to expect from the game but at the same time can't wait to play it. The nice thing about the trailer is that we got a release date for the game.  Is the new Zelda game releasing soon? And why is Australia suing Sony? It's also a good time to be a Pokemon fan because now you can play in your sleep... wait what!? We have also played Dauntless. A free to play game that is very similar to the Monster Hunter games. This and much more in this weeks newsreel.

Have you ever waited to long for a game to be released? In this weeks episode we talk about game that have been in development for to long. What did happened under the development and why did it take so long?  We have also played the new World War Z and give you our thoughts about the game. Final Fantasy XIV is soon geting its new expansion, are we going to play it?
