Solace Dreams Remake: A Doom Mod Inspired By Dark Souls

0
untitled

Doom has faced countless modifications and conversions since it’s release back in 1993. However, this new, full conversion mod takes the cake. Solace Dreams Remake is, well, a remake of an older game called Solace Dreams. Developer Erminio Lucente then took the Doom engine and created a whole new gaming experience by taking inspiration from Dark Souls and Silent Hill.

A lot of games these days have been labelled as “similar to Dark Souls,” however, this one actually means it. Alpha Beta Gamer states that Solace Dreams Remake is about a schoolgirl named Yuna who wakes up to find herself in a strange, dream realm. Each level of the game shows a different nightmare with different themes or settings.

It’s safe to say that Lucente really outdid himself with this mod, as the gameplay features of Solace Dreams Remake are pretty great. To be more specific, it has a shop, an in-game currency, as well as an XP and leveling system. Also, you have the power to summon one of your classmate’s in their boss form in order to assist you in battle.

Overall, the game has eight levels, and the visual style of each level are unique. You might ask: where does Dark Souls come into play? Well, the similarity between Solace Dreams Remake and Dark Souls can be seen during boss fights, as you will need extended patience and precision.

You can try out the Solace Dreams Remake by clicking here. Do note that it’s still in alpha version, so it may not be perfect but we highly recommend it anyway.

In addition, another historic team can be controlled by fans through the iconic Boston Celtics team led by the legend Bill Russell. The other two playable teams are the West 2nd seed Los Angeles Clippers and East top seed Milwaukee Bucks.

The NBA2K21 demo provides players the ability to experience new additional features including a revamped shooting system and the Courtside Report. On top of that, the demo also includes a MyPlayer Builder which allows players to customize their characters in order to dominate the court. The developers also revealed that the progress made from the demo will be carried over once they buy the full version of the game.

NBA2K21 will also be released on the next-gen consoles including the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. However, because of the current global coronavirus pandemic, the developers said that they won’t be updating player rankings until the game is released on the next-gen consoles. Their main reason for doing this is to guarantee that the in-game ratings will reflect the performance of a player for the currently delayed season.

The NBA2K21 full game will be released on September 4, 2020, with a launch price of $69.99.

Apex Legends Game Director Address Silent Weapons Bug in Season 6

It has come to the attention – and frustration – of many gamers that Apex Legends Season 6 currently has an ongoing bug wherein energy weapons like the Volt and the Devotion are completely silent in some cases. This can be a bit troublesome to many players, since energy weapons have become hugely popular in this sixth season.

 

Battle royal games like Apex Legends heavily rely on audio cues, so this can be a big problem when someone is shooting at you and you don’t know where they’re shooting from due to the lack of sound.

Fortunately, the developers at Respawn Entertainment have heard the outcry and they have addressed the bug on Twitter, stating that they are working on it. Unfortunately, there is no easy fix, but rest assured that they are actively working to find a solution to the issue.

We might not have an exact time frame as to when a fix will be rolled out, since it’s possible that they will wait until they have an update that includes other fixes for the game. However, it’s nice to know that they are aware of the situation.

That being said, if you don’t mind this glitch and you haven’t updated your game to the latest season, you should do so now. Along with Apex Legends Season 6 is a string of new features, including a new character called Rampart.

From there, our protagonists resist against their skewed system and fight their way to the top of the charts, despite all odds being against them.
