![]() Cyberdecks are an implanted computer that allows you to do various things like hacking doors or boxes, opening new paths, and breaching vending machines for health-buffing and healing loot. As this is a cyberpunk title, that can be guns, but it’s more often than not things you’ll jam into your meaty fleshy bits. ![]() To meet the challenge of the ever-increasing threat, you’ll need some upgrades. That said, you will spend a lot of time tilting your thumbstick away from enemies, trying to kite them to keep them at bay while they swing pipes at your head or launch mortars at your feet. It makes for a more engaging and nuanced approach to this style of gameplay, even if just a little bit. The game can be played solo which makes cover a lot more necessary, though even more temporary as miscreants can come at you from all angles. It keeps you relatively safe, though the enemies here are thick as thieves, so that safety is fleeting at best. The Ascent features a fairly unique cover system for this genre, allowing you to take cover and then fire over the top of anything you can put your back against. The environments are packed with debris, walls, and more - and that’s where the big change hits. That’s a factor here as well, giving you a quick dodge roll with the A button (with a cooldown), and enemies from every corner. Typical twinstick titles have you dodging and weaving as a flurry of bullets race towards you, using the environment and your own personal skills to stay safe. It’s jarring to see a massive golden Buddha that acts as an entrance to a cybernetics clinic, and I absolutely love it.Īt its heart, The Ascent is a twinstick shooter with a few twists. Advertising for various noodle shops, something akin to energy drinks, biomedical services, and more blanket the space with pink and blue neon as flying cars zip by. ![]() The city is stacked high, but you can see the slipshod and haphazard way it was cobbled together, managing to look futuristic and yet somehow like stacked remnants of something from the past. With neon, far too much rain, body mods, and urban sprawl as far as the eye can see, developer Neon Giant delivers the perfect blend of 80’s cyberpunk, twisted science, and anime aesthetics. As the power vacuum attracts the dregs who want a shot at seizing control, you’ve got the simple task of finding a job.įirst and foremost, the Ascent absolutely nails the cyberpunk aesthetic. Unfortunately for you, The Ascent Group, the massive megacorp driving commerce on this planet, just collapsed. Looking for a chance at something better, you have saddled yourself with debt up to your eyeballs. On planet Veles, they’ve built a massive densely populated arcology filled with indentured servants. Hopefully there will be a fix pretty soon, buty considering the small size of the development team, it could take some time.In the future, massive megacorps own everything, and everyone. While Curve Digital is replying to individual complaints on Twitter, there hasn’t been an official statement as of yet. ![]() It’s unclear as of now how these numerous issues have come to be. It’s asked them to flesh out their exact complaints on the Bug/Issue Reporting page. The developer has replied to many of them saying that it’s aware of the problem. The Ascent’s Twitter handle is currently swamped with players frustrated with these issues. RELATED: The Ascent's Most Fun And Addicting Feature Is Its Combat Others are plagued by game crashing issues, and in one case a player experienced a complete character wipe after putting in over 30 hours. This is especially frustrating as the device can only be upgraded by finding rare collectibles strewn across the world. ![]() Apparently their levelled up device, which is used to hack into turrets, unlock doors, and grant access to high level chests, have suddenly been wiped down to the base version. Other players have been experiencing issues with regard to their cyberdeck. ![]() ![]() Myne in the book took her own sweet time to start appreciating her family. This is such a stark difference to the impression I got of Myne in the anime’s first season, so I was super surprised. She didn’t care about helping her family out at all and is only highly invested in creating books. Her new family are strangers and thus, her monologue feels super unkind when it comes to her new family. ![]() She disliked her weak body, hated her family’s idea of cleanliness and most of all, never saw Tuuli as a sweet, responsible sister. Her monologue when she first woke up as Myne is always revolving around the idea that she looks down on her family’s situation. In the light novel, however… I honestly didn’t enjoy reading her monologue in the beginning. ![]() In the anime, it was portrayed that she’s just slightly inconvenienced and mad from her situation. She couldn’t do housework nor could she walk far from home. After all, you just died and entered a young child’s body. She treated her family like a stranger at first, but soon warmed up to them. She’s no longer a Japanese young lady from a modern era anymore, but a sickly young girl who could easily flop over and die if she’s not careful. The anime’s first season gave me a comforting vibe, where Myne tries to soak up as much as possible about this new world. The anime’s plot pretty much is a copy of the book’s plot but like every anime, they skipped out on a lot of details. It was only when she enlisted Lutz’s help that she succeeded. She tried to make paper on her own but failed. The anime’s first season covers Part 1, where we see Urano waking up as Myne and trying to adjust to her new life. I believe J-Novel has more volumes translated if you subscribed to their e-book offerings. 2 are out in the wild as of this writing. The JP light novels go up to Part 5 but for now, the English translation has up to Part 4 Vol. Note: Minor spoilers? I don’t talk beyond what is written as short summaries on the back of each paperback volume + S1, S2 anime. I bought the books knowing I’m about to experience the whole journey again but boy, it’s so much better. It is such a joy to watch Myne spreading her wings like she ought to. Not only that, she gained experience and her mindset grew as well. ![]() As she gradually inches towards her goal, she makes plenty of connections and widens her circle. She failed again and again, but she never stopped trying to make her own books. The story had a natural build up to Myne’s success. My thoughts about this series can be generally summed up as “YES. I wrote a few blog posts about the anime if you are interested. ![]() ![]() ![]() BONUS TRACKS: Gospel Boogie (A Wonderful Time Up There) God Is Not Dead.

On the Limited side, we have a similar situation, although shifted a bit. And the ladder – which I’ll discuss more later – offers a great set of incentives for people to enter the scene. There’s just a nebulous area in the middle, a place for people to grow from ‘playing the ladder’ to ‘competing for the Cosmic Crown Showdown’, where there’s no real substance. The big tournaments we see make a great end-game, as it were, for the best Constructed players to keep interested. They’ve released new cards at a good pace, they’ve introduced new mechanics regularly, and they’ve maintained the Constructed tournament scene in a healthy way to ensure there are goals for the upper echelon of players to strive towards. That being said, things aren’t perfect and they’ll have to make a few overall changes if they really want to push Hex into e-sports territory. The two things that I see as being big areas for improvement: Constructed lacks a middle tier of competition and Limited gameplay lacks something to strive for. I’m going to be blunt… as a competitive game, Hex is still as good as previously. I’ll be referencing my previous review a bit, since while a lot has changed, some things remain the same. But let’s take a step back and look at the game’s various facets and how they stand now. Quite frankly, I am spending more time on the game than I ever thought I would. If you’re unsure what the terminology means, I recommend looking here as the definitions are fairly good. This review will utilize some TCG jargon without explanation. So, given all of the above… how does the game look now? They have expanded their free to play offering, revamped the difficulty curve, and significantly enhanced the reward structure. They have revamped their tournament structure, taking strong advantage of the digital framework they’ve built to explore new territory. They have released a plethora of new cards, and are on the verge of releasing another set as we speak. My initial review cautioned people to not get suckered in by their promises as the game’s non-standard elements were still very much lacking, while offering strong praise for the game’s competitive elements – the more traditional things that make a ‘TCG’ run.Īlmost a year has passed since then, and Hex Entertainment has been busy. I rarely do these sorts of review updates… but sometimes it proves necessary. ![]() Early last year, I wrote a review for a digital card game who had just made their official ‘release’ called Hex. ![]() ![]() ![]() Continued abuse of our services will cause your IP address to be blocked indefinitely.

I have to keep trying to see if I can find that out. Maybe I revise because it gradually takes me into the heart of what the story is about.
