Medieval Empires’ Post

Helldivers 2 has sold more than 12 million units across PS5 and PC so far. By this time, it should be nearing around $500 million in gross revenue, making it the fastest-selling PlayStation game ever. We couldn't miss this incredible game on the podcast, so we played it in a special episode. Read the rundown here. Arrowhead Game Studios started originally with Magicka in 2011, but you could clearly see its impact on Helldivers 2. This specific combination input is used in both this game and Helldivers 1 & 2 (as seen in the image). Magicka is a coop 4-player adventure game where you go through the story with your friends, where fun is driven by spell combinations with its special button input and accidental friendly fire. This formed the basis for Arrowhead's success formula. As you can see from this point on, they are mastering this expertise of a "4 player coop friendly fun game" The studio continued this similar setup with Gauntlet in 2014 which is again a 4 player coop game and then Helldivers 1 in 2015 which again is a 4 player coop game. Nearly all of the mechanics/ lore and theme greatly translated from Helldivers 1 to Helldivers 2. Except that it is no more isometric view, but a 3rd person view. A similar shift was done when Warcraft 3 was translated into World of Warcraft. By 2024, the studio now has 13 years of genre expertise in their unique genre, where they pretty much did a 4th game with the same overall setup. Therefore the success of Helldivers 2 is no accident, as it can be seen on the surface. Similarly how Larian Studios did the first entry into their Divinity RPG series already in 2002 and then used all those 21 years of experience and 6 released RPGs to create the giant success of Baldur's Gate 3. Helldivers 2 is also a hard-earned victory for Arrowhead, after a long time of mastering their genre expertise.

About horror game "NAV" The protagonist finds himself in a space where nature is the dominant force, where time seems to have stopped and where at some point the line between reality and the paranormal is blurred. The level is divided conventionally into three states: 1. Twilight 2. Night 3. darkness These states are similar to the state of a person under severe psychological distress : Bargaining Denial Acceptance The location of the first part of the village (which appears in the demo version of the game) is a linear level designed to be explored. The location has places of interest, filler zones and secret locations. Exploring these locations rewards the player with emotions first and foremost, as well as details of what happened in the village, why it was abandoned and what happened to the inhabitants. The player will explore not only the environment of the abandoned village, but also the houses of those who lived there before. The houses have long been abandoned and each of them holds its own secrets. The protagonist is constantly surrounded by everything abandoned, dead and forgotten. This is partly a reflection of the protagonist's inner state. But it is also important that he is also surrounded by nature. It is always beautiful, enchanting, mysterious. The sounds of nature make the space deeper for perception and more exciting. At some point the player will open additional parts of the level. These parts make the story even more interesting and move the plot.In the demo version is an introductory part of the whole story, which will be deeper, more complex, more interesting and emotional in the full game.And we will definitely need your feedback after you play the demo version of the game.
