What to play + the best discounts of the week. Wasteland Remastered, DreadOut 2, One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows

Five years ago, the quest came out Stasis – and although ten people were listed in its credits, in fact almost everything was assembled by one developer, a former artist Christopher Bischoff. The project came out very budget, but received high marks, including 8 points from review.

And this week the author presented his new brainchild – Beautiful Desolation. Outwardly, the game is like old Fallout, but in reality it’s the same quest: collect trash, talk to the NPC and solve puzzles. Attracts the style of the author, attention to detail and an amazing atmosphere. Also in the reviews, they note an excellent plot, a huge amount of content, a lot of characters and the absence of bugs – in general, this is already quite a solid project at the level of serious studios. And in the niche genre of quests, Beautiful Desolation can even be considered a real blockbuster.

Modern games are often blamed for the fact that they are already “not the same”: they say, it used to be better. Well, all retro lovers can finally return to the origins of the industry: a remaster appeared on sale Wasteland – Roles 1988. The game completely updated the graphics, changed the controls, and also added the usual features of our time, such as save. Yes, and the texts can now be read in the game itself, and not in a separate brochure, imagine!

However, despite the updates, an unprepared player will face a cultural shock. Still, 32 years ago, games were made by other standards. Therefore, the remaster is intended primarily for fans of the old classics and those who wanted to find out what inspired the Fallout series. And all the rest is better to wait for the release Wasteland 3 which is scheduled for May 19th.

First Dreadout was a very scary game. But what is there, this is the real king of all horror movies, where you can train stress resistance to any life’s adversity. But, unfortunately, the developers decided that the horror component is not the most important thing in their game, and the horror sequel has become much less, but the action is much more.

And this decision was at least controversial: judging by the first reviews of the players, the battle was not very interesting, and many fans of the first part did not suit the changes. However, positive reviews in Steam still more, and in the negative they complain more likely not about gameplay, but about banal bugs, so it’s too early to talk about failure. If you have always dreamed of fighting monsters on behalf of an ordinary schoolgirl, there is a chance to get an unforgettable experience.

Jesse Cox is a famous American youtuber, comedian and voice actor. Remember the ice troll Jessie of The Witcher 3? Named after him! And recently it turned out that now he is also a game developer.

Max Gentlemen Sexy Business – This is a hybrid of economic strategy and dating simulator. The main character is a rich man whose family business was overcome by competitors; in order to get him back, the protagonist needs to re-establish ties and enlist the support of influential people. The game has adult content, but not enough, so fans of strawberries can pass by. But for lovers of original ideas, a strategy may come. The project is already praised for its non-standard approach to the genre, good humor and colorful characters.

And closes the list of the most significant releases of this week One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows – a fighting game based on the popular anime (we just recently about it wrote) And for those who have never heard of the adventures of the memetic superhero, we will briefly describe: One Punch Man is a story about the most ordinary Japanese clerk Saitama. Having decided to become a superhero, he trained so that he became bald, but now he defeats any enemy with one blow. True, with such rules, a fighting game would be quite boring, so in the game we will mainly manage Saitama friends. They do not even need to defeat the villains – just hold out until the main character arrives. And even further the outcome of the battle is obvious: one blow to the jaw, and any universal evil is knocked out. To play or not to play is up to you, but we recommend everyone to watch anime. A great parody of action games about superheroes.
