2/5

2/5

I give Kirby star allies a 2/5 because not only is it really easy but the game is unfinished when it came out. Let me explain.

The game came out with a single neat concept which is all they had which is to make Kirby’s enemies his allies or friends. But that wasn’t really worth the $60 so they kept on adding new things like DLC and extra levels and you may be thinking.”Hey, that’s not a bad idea.” No, it is because the consumer would more likely by the complete version than the unfinished versions it’s like Mario Tennis aces they keep adding new Characters to make you keep playing the game.

But even if that’s fixed the games still boring and uninteresting it’s repetitive and not funny it doesn’t draw the players into playing a level cause of the design of it is so horrible and I am not a huge fan of the controls you can be but I’m not.

There are no tricks or anything clever about its uninspired and not creative. I strongly believe the game is not $60 and is more worth $40 0r $20

 

 

 

 

I GIVE THIS GAME A 2/5

 

Skyrim is a long game but I still like it even if it is a dungeon clearing, dragon slaying, open world map I still like it, I love it I played around 100s of hours into it and I never regretted it.

Like Zelda and Fallout, Skyrim is a good example of a well fleshed out open world and its not empty every nook and cranny is filled up with something to explore with. You can find a hidden chest with a good weapon you can find some bandit hideout or a fort. Sometimes these random dragons attack you and that’s good because every dragon you kill gives you a dragon soul which can be used to get new magic and stuff.                                                                                                                 You can join a guild like the thieves guild the mages guild the dark brotherhood. There are 273 quests in Skyrim so it never gets old. You can buy a house, adopt a child. Have a companion to go on an adventure with its endless.

Now let’s talk about the combat which is a major part of the game and I came to say it’s mediocre its combat is like farcrys combat but not as cool. There are countless glitches and mods to do anything you want. The only problem I have with this game is that instead of trying to fix the glitches or bugs they focus in the graphics department and trying to make the water look better (Not A JOke)

I GIVE IT A 4/5

I had fun playing Splatoon but I think its kind of a silly game it is not anything we`ve seen before. The weapons are broken. We have to press a button to see the minimap. What is up with the motion control? Why is there still no voice chat? But it is kind of fun even if you’re a squid shooting ink out of a gun it’s pretty cool. You don’t have to be a soldier holding an m16 like in call of duty. Instead your shooting ink upon the floors and walls.

Now there are different strategies to this game. Like the good weapon the AR of the assault rifle if you like to get killed I recommend the sniper rifle. If you don’t even want to play the game pick the splat roller and if you die by the bucket then you probably are really bad at the videogame. The framerate is good.

Is splatoon a good game? NO. IS splatoon fun Totally. I give splatoon 2  a 3/5

 

I played through the first 36 hours of Xenoblade Chronicles and I didn’t really like it. The fighting system is not that smooth. The game mechanics are hard to understand. Every fight is hard collecting things is tedious and confusing. The characters are not that memorable. Why is there a level 50 gorilla in the baby section the first part of the game?!

 

I would spend Hours fighting on a guy over and over again till I finally beat him and its not that satisfying because its the same old win in the game loses in the cutscene trick. The Main character’s voice is annoying the humor is trying to be funny but it actually isn’t. The female character designs are so dumb but enough of that. Let us think of the good things in this game. Well for starters the pacing is okay it’s not too bad and the character development is decent like the storyline too.

 

The overall rating is a 1/5

We`ve all heard of Shrek but you go to love it with the sequencing and the brilliant intro. Let me explain we start off the movie with this green abomination called Shrek and he’s like taking a bath in the mud. Eating bugs and scaring people with the classic “Get out of my swamp” With the song All stars playing in the background.  But this doesn’t stop as Eddie Murphy voice acts a talking donkey, Now that’s an idea that I haven’t seen in a long time. Now, this brings in a new element because you see all these famous fairy tale characters like the 3 little pigs and Pinocchio have to live in Shreks swamp now I believe this is symbolic of people growing up and letting go of their fantasies and fairy tales. Truly a fantastic move by the director Andrew Adamson.

Let us talk about the main villain,  Lord Farquadd the main antagonist who is actually a midget believe it or not. Now lord farquad is a great antagonist a very different one he is a great menacing dictator that is in desperate need for a princess despite his good looks. He sends in prince charming a very symbolic character because he is the exact opposite of Shrek. He sends Shrek to save the princess.

I also love this movie for one of my favorite scenes of all time the onion layers scene. In an onion field, Shrek says “I’m like an onion because I have layers.” and the brilliance of that scene is that donkey remarks that Shrek is like a cake and not an onion. Because the two both have layers, And I love that scene because it shows shreks outside like an onion greenish and makes you cry but in the inside a nice sweet cake.

 

I guess the moral is a cover is not the book

NINTENDO ONLINE SUCKS, hey guys it’s me HMSethan here and I`m here to tell you that NINTENDO ONLINE SUCKS. They have no dedicated servers. And if you’re like me playing some smash bros you will be quick to understand. It`s a shame really cause super smash brothers is a great game, like a perfect face but has a pimple on the left cheek and that pimple is online.

I found out about it when I was playing Splatoon 2. I was about to play another game when a sign popped up that said JOIN ONLINE? I was mad that i couldn’t play online anymore without membership and my dad wouldn’t want to spend money for online. It was only till my 13th birthday when I went to game stop and secretly bought one behind his back.

When you first buy online they have this little arcade thing which is only exclusive to online players and its these old NES games they have Kirby, Mario, Metroid, Donkey kong, The Legend of Zelda. It sounds good at first but it’s actually not. See the games are easier than the original ones and you get bored really quickly. You play a game for 10 minutes and then you’re bored. The only decent game with online is Tetris 99 really addicting go check it out.

IS IT WORTH 20 DOLLARS kinda it’s not like Xbox or PS4 which is 60 dollars online and we get multiple games with it but the Xbox and the PS4 have really good online so yeah I guess it’s ok.

CONCLUSION: Nintendo online is like a baby who needs a diaper, a violin that needs tuning, Clothes that need to be folded neatly to be put in the drawer. I t has good potential but it needs to be polished up a little. What is the future for Nintendo? How will it affect more games? Well we will only find out

P.S: here’s my friend code for the switch: SW-6724-7331-7709

 

Hey, it’s me I just finished the super smash brothers campaign titled World of Light.  The campaign is super long it’s like 40 hrs I had a broken Link team so I beat it in 20 hrs. Let’s go over the storyline. Super smash bros is like a humongous crossover of videogame franchises so you got Mario and you got Kirby the roster is like 60 characters. So anyways all our characters are on a mountain looking at the sky and you have this ball with wings around it and hands all around it you know what just go watch the video i found on the smash website   https://www.smashbros.com/ 

So that`s the story and Kirby crash lands on a mountain and all the spirits get obliterated by Galeems Light and the music starts and its all epic i belive the person who sang it Hideki Sakamoto.

 

Gameplay wise:

They gameplay is a 5/5 you walk around on a map and you fight and unlock spirits. Spirits have different uses one drives a bus, one fixes a bridge  and as  you play you  start unlocking castles and dungeons. You can fight different bosses from different videogames you can unlock different  videogame characters. You can also unlock diffrent music soundtracks.  There`s even these side levels that make you feel nostlgic there`s one side level thats like your walking through the same Jungle as donkey kong country.  GREAT GAME ITS A GREAT GAME HOW COULD YOU NOT HAVE IT 5/5 !!!!!!! 5/5!!!!!!

 

Thats it see ya.

 

 

 

Hey guys you better check out my part 1 or you have no idea what’s going on so let’s do this anyway

So Dante goes through the first ring of hell which is called limbo and what Dante sees is a huge ring and people running in circles for all of eternity running in circles and being attacked by wasps and hornets. People go to Limbo for being neutral or neutrality so not taking a side.

people running from wasps. (Dante and Virgil bottom  right)

 

The second ring of hell is Lust and Lust and that basically means that you let your emotions control you’re a slave to your own emotions. Upon entering lust Dante and Virgil meet minos. Minos is a Giant dude with a snake. The Punishment for lust is that you are in massive hurricanes and wind higher than you can imagine. People who are in this circle of hell are Cleopatra, Achilles, and Helen of Troy.

 

lust

The 3rd Circle of hell is gluttony. Gluttony is where Cerberus lies and if you don’t know who Cerberus is its a giant dog with 3 heads most people probably know who he is.  it’s funny because in the divine comedy Cerberus is defined as the great worm which doesn’t make sense. Its ironic cause for gluttony you have an overabundance for pleasure but in gluttony, you have displeasure so you get rained on by icy cold slop and slush for all eternity. For all eternity you’re laying down being coved in disgusting filth while a 3 headed dog guards you.

gluttony

Moving on to the 4th circle of hell greed. The punishment here has been shared by a Greek legend called Sisyphus, I forgot what Sisyphus did but he did something to anger the gods and that’s a big no-no in Roman mythology. So the punishment is that you have to move a boulder up a mountain and it gets more vertical and you eventually fall down to the bottom. I think that is symbolic of being crushed by your own greed. The 4th circle  greed is guarded by Plutus. I don’t know much about him he’s like an old dude on a rock.

 

 Greed

 

We now come to the fifth circle Wrath. This is the last circle of the first half of hell. I forgot to mention that hell is divided into 2 sections there’s passive sin and active sin. Passive sin is not technically something that you considered sinful when you’re doing it.  Wrath is divided into 2 parts the Wrathful and the Sullen. The wrathful are forced to fight on muddy banks on the river Styx. The river Styx runs directly through wrath. This is where Fangio is the ferryman here. On the coast the wrathful which is quite simple because they lived there life in rage and anger the spend it fighting against each other. The sullen are stuck in the river Styx for all eternity embedded in mud.

Bye, see ya
