The latest sequel of the resident evil series, Resident Evil Village has not failed to make a mark in the gaming world. Produced by Capcom, it is an ideal game for people who are into horror with a touch of action.

The storyline picks up three years after volume 7. Ethan Winters is living with his wife and child when the evil from the last instalment appears and kills his wife and kidnaps his daughter. With that begins the epic journey of Ethan Winters to rescue his kidnapped child.

The beginning of the storyline fully engages the gamer in the haunted world of the village. You play as Ethan Winters with the challenge to survive and use resources to kill the evil that you come across.

The game experience on a higher end PC is very much smooth and enjoyable. The realistic graphics, animations, characters, and sound effects make your gaming experience better than ever.

As Ethan enters the village, he is pursued by werewolf mutants, creepy dolls, and other undesirables.

The game maintains a thrilling pace till the very end of the storyline. Visuals and mechanics are great, the storyline is interesting, characters are well-developed and the gaming environment is much more detailed than in the previous sequels. Every villain is unique, and offers different encounters.

The game takes some characteristics from the previous sequels. The plot twist being Chris Redfield who has always been a hero is seen as a villain.

The village game satisfies the horror genre in in a more complete way. Unlike the previous games, there is more variety of enemies at every stage. The game is not only about the shooting but has many other challenges and puzzles.

Depending on your gaming hardware experience may not be perfectly smooth but enjoyable. For a budget gaming PC be prepared to tweak settings to reduce lag and glitches.

Final Words

Resident Evil Village is a respectable survival horror game that does justice to the series. The game is a perfect combination of action and horror with engaging narration and realistic animations that deserves two thumbs up.

Age of Empires IV RTS continues to impress PC gaming and gamers

The Age of Empires part IV was announced in late August of 2017. Since then, the real-time strategy (RTS) fans have been anxiously waiting for the game to release. Since Microsoft and Xbox took the initiative to launch the game, there were high hopes that this game would impress the lot.

Finally, the game got released, and let’s tell you; it wasn’t an easy task completing the game. Everything was a delight to the eyes, from its four-part historic campaign with multiple missions to testing the multiplayer matches and skirmishes.

Review + Gaming Graphics:
The Age of Empires IV could be called a classic RTS game in every sense.

Although one can’t say it is revolutionary, the game has been impressive enough with its unique spice, style, and grace – contrary to other RTS games.

It is balanced and a superb finished game that feels more like a slow burn as you progress through the missions. The replayability is spectacular and is fun enough.

Although it is highly debatable in our personal opinion, it does not go to the level of Age of Empires II - cult success. But we can see many elements incorporated in the 4th installment of this game that we have seen in the second one.

Like the best-loved elements from the Age of Empires II game that was mimicked into the latest installment but with high-definition, this enriched look in the new RTS game won hearts.

One crucial thing we saw in the game was the producers' dedication and their understanding of their fans. They paid homage to the old as well as the new fans. The tutorial for Age of Empires IV was more like a throwback to the unforgettable memories we made for the previous Age of Empires series.

Another change we saw was in the Story Mode, when the difficulty level in the campaign removed the mass tactics and the micro play to give the story a more narrative-driven experience.

The challenges in AoE IV are designed for the gamers to test their potential and improve their understanding of the game and its core elements.

Final Words

It is up for debate whether the game truly captured the essence of the previous games or whether it would be likable to the audience. To us, the game was impressive enough despite being an RTS genre.

Some moments inside the game lack the potential and complexity required at this level. The technological aspects of the Age of Empire IV could have been done better, but it’s still acceptable.
In conclusion, this game was a solid entry to the Age of Empire series, and there is still plenty to discuss, but with new additions and fixes, this game is worth a try.

We have loved playing the game so far, and so will you. We are just excited about what the Age of Empires IV RTS game brings to its audiences.

In short, the Age of Empires IV RTS impressed us!

The Elden Ring is one of the biggest highlights of this year. Since March, the game has already sold more than 12 M copies, and its success is touching new horizons. Elden Ring has become a massive commercial as well as a critical success.

Elden Ring is the latest addition to the “Souls” series. The developer of the game collaborated with Game of Thrones author George R. R. Martin to create this masterpiece.

The game revolves around the Elden Ring, a symbol of power, order, and prosperity in this world. Suddenly the ring shatters, thus leaving the shard bearers to fight to earn the power back over the land.

The players start as one of the group members called the Tarnished. These people are banished from the Lands Between. In the game, the players are called once again as the last effort to restore the Elden Ring to its former glory.

PC Gamer Experience

The graphics of Elden Ring are flawless. The golden leaves dangling along the giant Erdtree in the center of the world, glazing through the night, are as surreal as anything. From dark shadows to torch-lit caves, every scene is purely artistic, and the attention to detail in terms of the graphic is out of the world.

One couldn’t help but go awe-struck while seeing how well-designed the game is. There are lots of combats and secrets hidden for you as you progress in the game. One thing is for sure the game is not short. It is lengthy but keeps the excitement level subpar.

However, when you play the Elden Ring on your PC, it might have some issues.

The first issue is that the Elden Ring PC game is poorly optimized. It doesn’t matter how high-end your gaming PC is, and you will still get plenty of bugs.

A similar example is during the mounting of Torrent, the player starts levitating and eventually dies in a few seconds.

Another issue that has happened in gaming PCs is during multiplayer mode. It can crash multiple times on the multi-mode and seldom during the single mode.

However, you can change the settings like remapping the keyboard, mouse, and gamepad. Plus, some graphical tweaks can also make the performance better.

Despite all of this, the gaming experience for Elden Ring on PC is still superior. The game developers constantly update and send large patches to fix these bugs. They even added additional parts to the questlines of some characters that didn’t make it to the initial cut.

Conclusion

Despite some minor glitches in the game, there is no denying the fact that Elden Ring has taken the gaming world by storm. It has lived up to its hype.

Spending 90 bucks can get you lots of hours of gameplay which is the most exciting thing for me. The story’s progression in the Souls series is excellent, and Elden Ring adds a lot to the story.

Keeping the game glitch-free for PC users will make Elden Ring the next big thing for PC gamers.

There are countless numbers of role-playing games (RPGs) in the world. But the epic RPGs immerse you so deeply into their worlds that you get lost in their made-up worlds. Specifically, RPGs like Mass Effect 2, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Fallout 3 make you feel the weight of the decisions you make throughout the game by affecting the outcomes in dramatic ways. But nothing beats The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

The Witcher – now made even hotter with Superman superstar Henry Cavill playing the main character in the Witcher TV series – is about Geralt, a monster slayer set in a war-torn world containing everything you would expect from epic RPGs mentioned above. What makes Witcher 3 an uber RPG is that it not only gets the “normal” RPG elements right, but it also gets everything else right!

Having bought The Witcher 3 on both Nintendo Switch and PC, I sunk weeeeeeell over 100 hours on the Witcher 3 before completing the game, and still wanted more. I’ve never played an RPG where every single mission felt unique. In fact, some of the optional side-missions – which are often considered “lesser missions” in epic RPGs – are even more interesting than the main missions! As a result, you upgrade and improve Geralt without even realising it because every single mission is equally engrossing.

The other thing that The Witcher 3 got right was the action element. You battle monsters in real-time, and the action in the battles are so smooth and so good it rivals other pure Action RPGs! You actually feel that you are getting better as you use the different combination of weapons and spells – and you can play the action however you like! If you prefer spells then go ahead and build a powerful wizard in Geralt. If you’d rather skewer monsters then make Geralt a tank. Or you can mix them up if you’re undecided.

As if all the above wasn’t enough, developer CD Projekt Red even made the in-game card game, Gwent, highly addictive. Who really cares about a card game within an RPG game? But to my surprise, I was just as absorbed by the Gwent card game strategy as I was with the rest of the Witcher 3 world. Unbelievable!

The Final Word

In the final analysis, I would be more than willing to upgrade my gaming performance PC just to play The Witcher 3 in its full glory. The Witcher 3 is to the gaming world what The Lord of the Rings is to the movie world. It will be a mammoth task for any developer, even CD Projekt Red themselves, to top this uber RPG. But one can only hope, as I’ll be first to buy the game – and a new gaming performance PC along with it.
