![]() ![]() These 6 Masteries are included in the original game: At a slightly higher level, the player is given the choice to select a second Mastery to specialize in, allowing them to hybridize their character based on their own play style. Similar to Titan Quest, the player can initially choose one out of several different classes, known as "Masteries", each focusing on different gameplay styles. When you awaken, you are given some basic equipment by the refugees at Devil's Crossing and are free to explore the world with your newfound abilities as a Taken, although you can choose to complete quests that will hopefully aid the remaining human survivors in ultimately stopping the Aetherial and Cthonian war which threatens to destroy Cairn entirely. Bourbon then cuts you from the noose despite some protests from the other refugees. The leader of the refugees, Captain John Bourbon, gives the orders for you to be hung, but as you hang by the noose, the Aetherial possessing you escapes. You start the main Grim Dawn campaign off as an Aetherial-possessed human who was captured by a group of humans seeking refuge at Devil's Crossing, a prison with road access to many parts of Cairn that have since been destroyed or overrun by the Aetherials and their possessed human slaves. The unnatural powers of these survivors, occasionally called "Taken", are feared by some, but also give a new hope of launching a resistance to fight the "outsiders" and reclaim what is left of their world. A few survivors have begun to exhibit strange new abilities after surviving possession or exposure to the Aetherials. ![]() These humans have quietly watched the warring invaders destroy one another and have become wise to the strengths and vulnerabilities of their otherworldly foes. Small enclaves of human survivors exist scattered throughout the world, holed up in refuges. For humankind, it is the dawn of a grim new age where iron has replaced gold as currency and the great civilizations of old are nothing but a memory. Their war has brought the world of Cairn to the brink of destruction. Grim Dawn takes place in the world of Cairn, where humanity is caught in between an eternal war between two otherworldly forces: the Aetherials, who seek to use human bodies as a resource to take over the world and the Chthonians, creatures from the void who seek to wipe out humanity before the Aetherials can use them. Grim Dawn is an Action RPG game developed by Crate Entertainment, a company that includes veterans of Iron Lore Entertainment, the makers of Titan Quest. "Enter an apocalyptic fantasy world, where humanity is on the brink of extinction, iron is valued above gold and trust is hard earned." ![]()

They absorb more light than they reflect, making the spaces dimmer and casting a moody look on already dark spaces. The reason is that dark gray paint colors don’t do well in dim-lit areas of a home or workplace. While these guys offer significantly more depth and tend to maintain their looks in any space, they have lesser versatility than brighter ones. Using this basis, Valspar Gray Paint Colors fall into the following groups. ![]() The opposite is the case for bright paint colors with higher LRVs. This is why dark paint colors have low LRVs they absorb more light than they reflect. It runs on a numerical scale of 0 – 100, with lower values indicating weak reflectance but high absorbing power.

Gray paint colors become the safest choice when you don’t want extra color or when you don’t to mess up your decor. This makes them just as popular as the other two neutrals for homes and workspaces.

You don’t want the room to feel cold or sterile. No matter the gray you choose, balance is key. “Charcoal grays are very striking and elegant, especially when paired with vivid colors like blue-reds/cranberry, emerald-green, or citrus orange,” McLean says. Really dark grays such as Sherwin-Williams’ Peppercorn (7674) can look amazing on an accent wall, or even enveloping an entire room, if done right. Going gray doesn’t always mean going neutral. “It’s also a wonderful transition color for those who aren’t sure about painting a whole room gray,” she adds. Want a paint shade that’ll work both ways? “Greiges (gray and beige) are the perfect neutral because of its versatility-you can pair it with warm or cool tones,” says Liz Toombs, president of PDR Interiors.Īmazing Gray (Sherwin-Williams 7044), above, is her pick. Photo by LAND DEVELOPMENT AND BUILDING, LLC A cool, light gray, like Benjamin Moore Winter Solstice (1605), above, is a solid pick for a spa atmosphere. Riordan sticks with cooler grays when designing around sources of water, like in the bathroom. In particular, gray with warmer brown undertones is lovely in living rooms and master bedrooms, she says. Unless you have an ultracontemporary home, beach-front property, or an industrial loft (these styles look amazing painted a blue-toned, cool gray) look to warmer tones, says Sara Chiarilli, an interior designer with Artful Conceptions in Tampa,FL. Yup, the function of your room is a factor, too. Assess the roomĬlaim your home to stay up-to-date of your home‘s value and equity. “Know that the color will change slightly throughout the day,” says Justin Riordan of Space and Archer Design Agency. East-facing rooms tend to have little bluer natural light, so green- and blue-grays can also work nicely here, pairing beautifully with turquoise and cobalt accents.Ī word of caution before you commit, though: Paint a swatch on your wall in your chosen shade, and see how it looks in the light. West-facing rooms also show better with warmer grays, while south-facing views, which get more sunshine, look great with cool grays. “Instead, choose a warm gray or grays with brownish undertones.” “North-facing rooms get little natural light, so a cool gray (green-gray, blue-gray) will only make it feel chilly or cold,” she says. To narrow your gray choices, gauge the light your space receives, recommends Sara McLean, color expert and designer at Dunn-Edwards. “If there are warm tones in the home, such as brown or taupe upholstery and flooring, or there’s a lot of red, orange, or yellow accents, then it’s imperative to use a gray with warm (tan or beige) undertones,” explains Dessie Sliekers of Slick Designs.īut if details in the rooms favor blues and purples, you’ll need a gray with cool undertones, which will have a bluish or greenish cast. To do this, you need to determine whether the undertone in your room is on the warm or cool side. Before jumping into the world of gray, it’s important to figure out which shade will complement the furniture and textiles you already have. ![]() ![]() ![]() There were also police vehicles and posters of criminals, especially the evil car from Wheely 3. There was the mechanical truck who helps Wheely with repairs and technical difficulties. As Wheely went through the town, I got to see familiar characters from previous games. The first few levels weren't too dificult, other than finding the bonus items (the spare tire and the mini-Wheely). Wheely, excited to embark on a brand new adventure, drives out the door, and that was where the game began. She tells him that it's a book about a road that leads to a mystery part of the world that that no one has been to before. Although there still weren't any real voices, it was clear that when Wheely asked Jolie what she was reading. He sees Jolie reading a book that I couldn't see the title of. The story began with a comic visual showing Wheely wandering around his house. I let the first few seconds of recording the video pass before I pressed the start button. I was so happy to be the first person to experience this new entry, I decided to record it, using my new screen recording service I got for my birthday several months ago. ![]() I didn't even get any logos, just the title screen, and the nostalgic music from all the other games. It didn't take too long to load the game. There was also a counter on the bottom right corner showing how many players have played so far. It didn't show any gameplay, but it did show a happy Wheely driving along a colorful road with the title "Wheely 9" above him. But when it began, I couldn't believe my eyes. As it was loading, I thought it would be something typical, like a dairy product or some bullshit like that. I was playing some of the Wheely games on my school chromebook, when an ad popped up during one of my playthroughs. I barely had any homework, and I was ready to embark on my magical holiday adventures. I just got out of school for Christmas vacation. It is one of the franchises that helped to shape my childhood, and it always will be. Although there have been no official plans by Pegas Games to continue the series, it has been played and loved by PC players worldwide, including myself. The story follows the titular little red car, who goes on adventures around the world with his friends and girlfriend/wife, Jolie. The first game, bearing the singular title, was released in the early 2010s, and the last (official) game to date, Aliens, was released on May 25, 2018. Wheely is an online free-to-play game franchise created by Pegas Games for almost any computer. In terms of PC, there is one franchise of car games that seems to stand out the most: Wheely. There are also countless video games regarding topic, from computers to consoles. While that alone is amazing already, film is not the only form of vehicle animation. From goofy and energetic cartoons, such as the titular titles from Pixar, to more abstract replicas of reality driving, memorable and iconic vehicles are further beautified in art.

He brings up the team’s small size during scenario planning and the ramp-up in staff needed when building the rest of the game. After mentioning the one present in Fantasian, a skill tree that gives players the sense of the game opening up for character growth, Yoshida says XVI has something similar.Īlso mentioned in the discussion, Yoshida confirms the scenario for FFXVI is complete, and the team is working on finishing side quests and working on the 3D models. He reveals that Final Fantasy XVI has an “expansive” skill tree. Yoshida questions what to even call Final Fantasy XVI since so many games have RPG elements. Some news slipped about Final Fantasy XVI when the topic switched to why Sakaguchi and Yoshida were drawn to the RPG genre. Sakaguchi is, of course, the creator of Final Fantasy and has most recently released the mobile RPG Fantasian. Yoshida is currently heading the development of Final Fantasy XVI and has been the driving force behind the resurrection of Final Fantasy XIV Online since A Realm Reborn. One highlight was a Famitsu-hosted interview with Naoki Yoshida and Hironobu Sakaguchi, two developers who represent the present and past of the Final Fantasy series, respectively. All that long, layered history is noticeable, even if you're not personally familiar.Tokyo Game Show 2021 concluded over the weekend, and we’re still learning great nuggets of information from the various streams and interviews during the event. That you're watching your escapades through a god's eye.Īttention and care is the thing with Fantasian. Teeny tiny creations that you romp through, often in ultra close-up, where the brush-strokes, miniature sprigs of feathery moss and little pinprick clumps of artist's putty are visible, the beauty often secondary to the sensation of it all - that the world is overtly authored, specifically hand-placed. There's a faint sense that these are acting as smart cover for a fairly thin budget (there's a recurring sound effect that is absolutely just a recording of a TIE Fighter, for instance, and a lot of laboured text in place of more elaborate cutscenes). The thing you'll know Fantasian for of course, alongside its director, is its extraordinary use of physical dioramas for its overworlds. It also makes for a kind of self-directed difficulty meter - if things are feeling a little easy, use the machine and fight the random monsters a couple dozen at a time. You can choose to battle them at any point, or you're forced to when it gets full, so the convenience of getting around the world without battles is gained, at the cost of a little mind-game you play with yourself about when to take them all on at once. Likewise the wild encounters, which you just start to tire of before being introduced to a very clever twist called a "Dimengon Machine", a doohickey that bottles up enemies you would've encountered, up to a limit. There are a moderate amount of systems here, and they're introduced in layers: turn-based battles, fine, but then positioning becomes important, and then a bit of very casual mechanics become important, as you learn to "bend" spells to get around blocking enemies or hit several at one. A welcoming kind of "onboarding" is not something I've associated with JRPGs, but - maybe because of its launch on Apple Arcade, with the different, presumably quite specific kind of audience that brings - Fantasian does it well. I have more or less no familiarity with any of this though, having dipped toes in a number of Final Fantasies and reliably found their water a little cold - but I'm sinking into Fantasian quite nicely. ![]() ![]() So it’s the perfect popcorn movie outing for the weekend.

The Protg (2021) Full Cast & Crew See agents for this cast & crew on IMDbPro Directed by Martin Campbell. The Protg is an exhilarating movie filled with high-octane action, copious amounts of blood and gore, and a sensual undercurrent of fight-or-flirt that has not been seen on the silver screen. The Protégé is just a good, fun action-thriller with great repeat value. It ultimately sets The Protégé apart from other, similarly-themed titles. Also, the relationship between Anna and Rembrandt is so intriguing, it’s worth the price of admission. In addition, the locations provide a stark contrast to the cold, stone locations during the European segments. Much of the film was shot in Southeast Asia, and not only is it gorgeous, but it is integral to the overall story. There is a cliched moment with his character, but he’s still a badass and, like Keaton, steals every scene. I mean, surely he had a stunt double, right? Samuel L.

Rescued as a child by the legendary assassin Moody (Samuel L. He’s downright ruthless as the big bad’s henchman, and his wavering moral compass and odd admiration for Anna adds great dimension to the character without going in a predictable direction. Michael Keaton is spectacular as Rembrandt. Q is put through the wringer and firmly establishes herself as an action star with work we haven’t seen since Nikita. These calmer moments feature Anna hunting down clues and investigating Moody’s mystery, as well as having her on the wrong end of “enhanced” interrogation when the big boss captures her. I found these dramatic points good counters to the high-energy action. ![]() There is a great deal of downtime from the gunplay and martial arts. In addition, there’s an apartment fight scene that is absolutely jaw-dropping and the most memorable moment of the film. The Protg is a 2021 action film directed by Martin Campbell and staring Maggie Q, Samuel L. Instead, we get several fun car and bike chases through the streets of Saigon, wonderfully choreographed hand-to-hand knife and gunfights, and it all ends with a nice explosion. The action beats are much more grounded and almost entirely devoid of CG “fix it in post” nonsense. If you’re tired of the over-the-top stunts from the Fast and the Furious franchise, The Protégé is the perfect alternative. That’s a good thing, within reason, but the film eventually expects us to be invested in. “… prolific assassin Rembrandt… kills Anna’s associates…” In The Protege, far more care seems to have gone into the stunts themselves than the movie around them. ![]() |
