New Difficulty Update Coming Soon For ‘Vampyr’

Later this summer, fans of the blood-sucking RPG, “Vampyr” will see a new update to the game, a difficulty setting. The game’s difficulty depends on the actions players take to earn XP to raise the stats of Jonathan Reed, the game’s protagonist. Players can earn XP by fighting enemies, locating documents, talking with London citizens, and completing side missions but if you want to earn a lot of XP quickly you can “embrace” (suck the blood) of characters you meet along the way but by doing so can affect events in the game. The new difficulty will affect how players can earn XP, through combat you will earn little to none, making the temptation greater to feed on the citizens of London. Because of this new update, it would make the gameplay more about the narrative of the story. The update will be in effect on all gaming devices and in preparation for the update, “Vampyr” is 25% off on

Exit the Vault In ‘Fallout: 76’

Bethesda Game Studios knows how to tease fans when it comes to their favorite game series, especially when it comes to “Fallout”, the post-apocalyptic first-person shooter that takes players into an alternate timeline where the United States suffered a nuclear holocaust. Yesterday, a teaser trailer for the latest installment of the gaming franchise was released, offering little details. “Fallout 76“, according to sources, is rumored to be an online multiplayer game that takes place inside Vault 76, one of many subterranean Vaults that were designed to house hundreds of selected citizens of the United States in the event of a nuclear blast. Those living in the vaults will eventually be evicted and sent back up to the surface to rebuild and repopulate what remains of the United States. The rumors also have stated that the game will be a survival RPG style game much like “Day Z” and “Rust” where players have to collect supplies and weapons and build shelters

‘Endemic’ Mixes Modern Zombies With Classic Roleplaying

Dungeons and Dragons is host to some of the most creative monsters in popular fiction, but one thing it’s never addressed is a full on apocalyptic epidemic. Or an Endemic as a new zombie themed RPG coins it. From creator and visionary Lance Yoshioka, Endemic is a dynamic table top role playing game, with zombie survival horror, combat systems, rules for zombification, and all the undead fun D&D Heads have ever wanted. Me and a few friends played a few rounds of Endemic together, and while it was a dense game to get into (the rulebook is 256 pages, with everything from Armor Durability to if a Snow Plow could outrun a zombie), we had a lot of fun. The thing that set Endemic apart for me was the focus on survival; unlike many traditional RPG’s, where your quests take you on hunts for treasure and glory, your only goal here is to not get your face bitten off, rather
