Shadow's Kiss Is Another Vampire-Themed MMO in Developement with Mature Content

0
0
If you are a vampire fan boy, then you might be interested in Shadow's Kiss, a vampire-themed MMO currently in development by a new game company called Clockwork Throne. They opened a Patreon page for Shadow's Kiss, hoping backers will pledge a monthly fee to help them continue the development. Well, currently the goal is kinda low with only $200 a month.
Patreon lets you be a patron of the arts, and pledge an amount of money, large or small, to artists and creators. In turn, we give you unique art, regular updates, design input, and even NSFW variants of some of our signature pieces, if you so desire. It's a brave new paradigm, where instead of big publishers dropping large sums of money, you, the enthusiasts, support cool ideas and art, often with the equivalent cash outlay of a Starbucks latte.
Speaking of the game, Shadow's Kiss draws inspiration from the Vampire Chronicles, True Blood, the Lost Boys, Buff & Angel, and other folklores and cultures. It will be an MMO where you play that part of a vampire and go on quests, find allies, and team up with other players to defeat enemies, seduce and control mortals, and gain territorial dominance. In addition, Shadow's Kiss contains mature content, delving into seduction and horror to punctuate the adventure, darkness, and romance of the Undead.



Shadow's Kiss is in a pre-alpha state now with a goal for fans to experience the alpha test sometime in 2016. More details can be found on the official website.

Dragomon Hunter Shutting Down in China only 6 Months after Open Beta

0
0
Dragomon Hunter, developed by Taiwan-based game developer X-Legend and published by Changyou in China, is going to cease its service, shutting down all the servers on February 23rd, 2016. Ironically, the game just entered into open beta in China on July 17, 2015 and after about 6 months, it is going to say goodbye to Chinese players. It seems that this anime-style MMO does not acclimatize in Chinese market well. The Chinese publisher didn't specify the reasons behing the sunset, though.


Dragomon Hunter is published in the west by Aeria Games and the game is still running. Maybe that's the difference between eastern and western players? Do you think Dragonmon Hunter will go in a stable way or it will have same fate in the future?

Top 10 Tips for Arena Success at Clash Royale

0
0
Clash Royale is almost the headline in every single day. If you haven't play it, you are definitely out.

Once you’ve download Clash Royale successfully on your iOS or Android devices. The following general tips that will keep you alive, winning, and racking up trophies seems very necessary.

1.Distract, don't defeat


If your opponent is sending someone to come topple your tower, like a Giant Skeleton, it can be tempting to counter it with another high-powered, and costly unit. But this isn't strictly necessary.
If you use cheap cards, like the Skeleton or Spear Goblins, you can distract offensive enemies once they're in range of a tower to keep them busy while your tower archers do the hard labour of wearing down that enemy.

2.Never sit at 10 Elixir


10 Elixir means no more of that all-important purple goo will generate. This is a huge waste of Elixir.

3.Keep the Elixir advantage


"if you can kill high Elixir cost cards with low Elixir cost cards, then you will have extra Elixir to cast cards that your opponent simply cannot afford to defend against".

4.Don't play too offensively 
Throwing all your units at one of your opponent's tower might seem like a good idea at the time, but just wait until your rival is free to send its best unit at your tower, while you're still waiting for Elixir to build up.

Play cautiously, and have the Elixir and the cards to defend anything your opponent might throw at you. When they make a mistake, or run out of Elixir, now is your chance to send a Prince or a Hog Rider down the lane and get an easy tower topple.

5.Watch TV Royale


By watching the pros playing games on TV Royale, you can analyse the moves they make, the moves they don't make, the ways they counter attacks, and - of course - the cards they take into battle.
 
 
6.Know the most common cards inside out
Mirror cards, Mortars, and Minion Hordes are only unlocked in late arenas, and can be more complicated to use compared to your standard Knight, Giant, Archers, and so on.

7.Use units in tandem
You shouldn't always think about cards as individual units. There are lots of combinations you can use to make two different units practically unstoppable. A Giant, for example, is formidable. But a Giant with a Balloon behind him? Good luck countering that in a hurry.

8.Get gold fast 
Money makes the world go round in Clash Royale, so knowing how to get this precious metal in large quantities is important. The Clash Royale Arena recommends opening chests and donating cards.

9.Spend your gems wisely


If you've got a lot of gems (either from chests or in-app purchases), the last thing you want to do is spend them poorly.

10.Keep an eye on the balance changes


Every now and then, Supercell will issue a bunch of changes to the game, buffing and nerfing the power, cost, and abilities of each card.

Keep an eye on these changes (open the activity log from the battle screen and then then choose the inbox tab) and then tweak your deck or your strategies accordingly.

Camelot Unchained Receives Enhanced Lighting Effects - Screenshots

City State Entertainment will finally add indirect and dynamic lighting to Camelot Unchained, the upcoming MMORPG focuses on PvP. It'll replace the current simple lighting that usually appears in "a high school theater production," the developer says. "The effect is intended to make Camelot Unchained pretty, longer," the developer adds. And they hope the game would last until around 2026.

Some game engines pre-compute those computations, but that’s not good enough for CU. Our entire world is dynamic. Players can build and destroy structures. The terrain can shift depending on who controls a zone. The time of day and light angles change constantly. We need lighting that can adapt on the fly to a world that adapts on the fly.

Asta's Upcoming Western Open Beta Will Only Be Accessible for NA and EU Players

ASTA – The War of Tears and Winds

Webzen has just posted an update regarding the changes in Asta's open beta on March 2. Except for content changes, there will be some differences regarding the region restrictions. Only NA and EU players will be able to play the OBT, meaning that Oceanian and SEA players won't be able to play.
 

There are unfortunately also some bad news regarding the Open Beta that we feel we have to share with you: Polygon Games have asked us to once again tighten our region restrictions and only allow access to IPs in the “area of service” as defined in Webzen’s contractual agreement with them.
 
While we previously had to restrict access only from regions for which there are conflicting license agreements, these new restrictions will unfortunately also affect IPs from areas where this is not the case. Access will restricted based on IP geolocation, meaning you will only be able to access the game if the IP you use to log in is registered as being from one of the countries listed below.

 
The image below shows the exact regions that can play the OBT.

 
 
Content changes
 
You will see some noticeable differences between the IBT and OBT versions. This also extends to the game’s localization, where you will see changes such as:   

• The “HP” & “Critical” base attribute being renamed to “Vitality” & “Impact”    
• The “Ogre” race being rechristened as the “Doka”    
• The admittedly confusingly named “Jeweler” NPCs (the ones that add sockets to items and gems to sockets) being changed to “Socketers”    
• Factions and races being referred to as such (previously “realms” and “tribes”)

Black Desert Online Cash Shop Pricing Causes a Stir in the Community

A beautiful sunset in Black Desert Online
A beautiful sunset in Black Desert Online

To many, they have been waiting for this and are very pleased with Black Desert’s aesthetic, so it’s no wonder why Black Desert Online is booming with life on its second day of CBT 2, with channels in the servers being full or crowded even at night. The fighting is fluid, the environment is beautiful, and the soundtrack is very peaceful. However, some have lost interest in the game and any have been enraged after PM_Belsazar (an administrator on the forums) released the patch notes for this beta.

Within it contains information regarding plethora information about the game system, gameplay, and known bugs – the usual for just patch notes. Many were delighted to see the patch notes appear at first, that is, until they looked at information regarding the cash shop. To the community, the prices for a lot of the items seemed very expensive for a game you had to buy, so I decided to take a look myself before commenting about it.

For testing purposes, Daum gave us 50 dollars-worth of Daum Cash (the small yellow coin), so I went ahead to buy some things: pearls first since almost everything is in the currency of pearls, then lingerie, a staff camo, and an owl. It came up to be 2,700 pearls, which is almost 30 dollars right there. With the remaining 2,300, I went to look at the function tab and checked out expansion coupons for inventory space.

Just an expansion coupon for just one space was $1.50, and for eight it would cost you $8.00. For a f2p game, this would have been fine. After all, there has to be ways for the game to make money. However, for a game you need to pay 30 dollars for, these prices are ridiculous, especially since the outfits themselves are worth more than the game itself. To add onto how ridiculous the prices are, those who spent 100 dollars on the Conqueror’s Package can’t even afford the weapon and costume set due to them receiving 25 dollars-worth of pearls.
32 dollars for a weapon and costume set? Seriously, Daum?
32 dollars for a weapon and costume set? Seriously, Daum?

Thankfully, this is CBT 2, and with a lot of the community expressing their frustration at this, these prices will hopefully change. After all, the game is beautiful, and it would be a shame to see it go down the drain because of the prices on the cash shop.  Black Desert Online comes out officially on March 3rd, 2016.

The Black Death Shows Gameplay of Peasant, the Gathering Class in the Game

0
0
You may not be aware of the freedom The Black Death has until you watch this gameplay trailer. Peasant is one of the several non-combat classes in the sandbox MMORPG who focuses on crafting, gathering, and growing food. The trailer also shows a huge looting and trading and economy system that lots of items and mechanics (such as weight system) are involved. The game reminds me a bit of The Elder Scrolls franchise.
 

 
The Black Death is at its core a surival MMORPG, and that means playing in group is a better option. Since there are combat and non-combat classes, it’s smart to work with each other to get the max benefit. On the other hand, the game has an interesting economy system, for everything has a price in the game. You can purchase weapons, armor, houses, food, potions, tools, and much more, as long as you have coins.

Riot Announces New Dragon Champion to Replace Long-Awaited Ao Shin

Do you still remember the concept art for League of Legends dragon champion which revealed during the Chinese qualifiers? The character was named Ao Shin and Riot has barely revealed more details about this champion. After years of silence, Riot has finally spoken up about Ao Shin.



According to Riot message boards, Ao Shin is no longer in development. Riot revealed various problems during the creation of Ao Shin, including issues creating a kit, group of abilities, passive powers and more. However, the company is working on a different dragon to take his place. The new dragon tentatively named Aurelion Sol will be released, but won’t have much in common with his inspiration. It is scheduled to release in the first half of this year. "While we're sorry to have hyped up the idea of a serpentine, storm-wielding dragon for so long, we're still very excited to deliver a dragon champion this year that we hope you'll love,"
