Agony Dev Announces New Game Succubus Via NSFW Trailer
Madmind Studios has certainly had an interesting 2018, to say the very least. They released their controversial game Agony on Steam, though the game was heavily censored. After a lot of back and forth about whether or not the uncensored version of the game would release, the Unrated version surprise released on Halloween.
It looks like the developer is taking no time off, as they have already announced that their next game is in development. The game is actually a spin-off of Agony, with Succubus being set in the same demonic world. A concept gameplay video was released to commemorate the occasion, which you can view right here. Be warned that it is very NSFW.
The game takes place after the events of Agony, with players controlling the Succubus. This demonic being has become a ruler of Hell alongside Nimrod, though she quickly learns that this new responsibility really isn’t to her liking. So, instead, she decides to wander the wilderness of Hell doing as she pleases, though it isn’t long until she learns that something sinister is afoot.
It turns out that another demonic being named Baphomet is assembling an army to remove Nimrod from the throne and capture his soul. The Succubus herself is captured and maimed, which leads to her setting out on a mission to get revenge. This game will allow players to acquire new weapons for the first time, as well as being able to cleave enemies right in half. It’s about as gruesome as the first game was, which was extremely gruesome and certainly pushed things to their absolute limits and even beyond.
For those who weren’t satisfied with what Agony had to offer, it looks like developer Madmind Studios is trying to remedy those issues with Succubus. The game looks much more action-focused, with a greater variety of weapons and skills to play around with. The character herself also looks much more nimble than the first game’s protagonist, as she can slide around and dodge enemy attacks.
More information on Succubus will be coming soon, as the game’s release date has not yet been revealed. It’s currently only confirmed for a release on PC. You can get more information via the Steam page, which will continue to be updated by the developer as we get closer to launch.
Since the excellent Baldur’s Gate 3 has been out in the wild for a while, interesting data can be gleaned, such as how players choose to play an innovative new RPG from home. Stats from developer Larian Studios and posted on the PlayStation Blog show that most people want to play as a stealthy archer like in Skyrim when given nearly limitless options.
According to a fascinating graph, Rogue/Ranger is the most popular multiclass build, with over 175,000 players using it to snipe unsuspecting enemies from range. The next two builds reveal similarly. 150,000 played Barbarian/Fighter because they loved pummeling things, and 109,00 played Barbarian/Paladin, which lets players talk to their victims before beatings.
More sense emerges as you descend. If the Paladin/Warlock/Sorcerer/Bard has high Charisma, any combination can be interesting. Charisma helps these classes cast spells and abilities and interact with NPCs outside of combat.
Playing a single class through Baldur’s Gate 3 feels great, which is what most players do. A pure Fighter or Wizard becomes so powerful by game’s end that we don’t blame you for not mixing things up!
Play as a Tiefling Oathbreaker Paladin, Dark Urge Origin (which you must resist), or Bard for real moral dilemmas. You could also play pseudo-Aragorn again.
Techland is continuing to release Dying Light 2 content as part of its long-term support. This is surprising since the meaty Good Night, Good Luck update was released a few months ago. It’s nice to know what’s coming, but no timeline was given.
IGN-exclusive roadmap trailers reveal more co-op missions, board quests, a tower raid, and replayable GRE anomalies. Executions and finishers may be added to the April Gut Feeling update, which overhauled melee mechanics. Graphical options, weapon repair, gear, and mod dismantling are always welcome.
Knives, polearms, and more enemy variants are coming, including a Nightmare difficulty. Changes to NG+ include firearms. Players can finally dress to their hearts’ content with new cosmetic options.
Has Techland’s Dying Light 2 support lured you back? Would you rather focus on something new?
Epic Games expanded the Fortnite V-Buck “pricing alignment” after laying off almost 900 employees, citing “inflation and currency fluctuations”. Fortnite’s premium currency will rise in international markets, including the largest.
Epic Games will raise the price of V-Bucks and real money content packs in the Czech Republic, Denmark, Eurozone countries, Hungary, Japan, Norway, Poland, Romania, Sweden, Turkey, and the US (including all US Dollar storefronts) on October 27.
Raising the price of this fictitious currency was successful when the company trialed it in the UK, Canada, and Mexico, so it was decided to announce it worldwide now. These USD increases range from $1 (1000 V-Bucks, previous $7.99) to $10 (13,500 V-Bucks, previous $79.99).
How do you view Epic’s timing and pricing increase?
