Material Girl: First Opinion

Material Girl: First Opinion

You ever have a feeling that when you buy a game cheap you expect cheap. Well this is one of the games that should be cheaper.

Story line

The main protagonist, Sakura, is trying to save money to survive and to make sure she doesn’t get kicked out of home. So she needs 15,000 yen for electricity. Days later she needs an additional 50,000 for rent. She starts off working at a bakery and then gets a job at a convenience store. She gets manhandled at both of these jobs. She also gets sexually assaulted. She eventually gets “noticed” by a tittie bar and decides to work there. Still needing more money, she realises that she can start to charge 10,000 yen a pop for sex, instead of being assaulted, at which point she starts to dwindle into promiscuity.

The Good

• The graphics are really nice
• Costumes look good and they allow you to activate certain scenes depending on what is worn
• Free roam and plenty of choices that split off the story into different directions.
• The main game play is as a top-down play style and when conversations occur it then shows proper cartoon images

The Bad

• Japanese voicing in key sentences especially during seduction scenes
• Japanese moaning
• No English translations in some dialogues and some menus
• The music is very forgettable
• Beware of the toilets!!

The Ugly

• The English translations are atrocious as it appears that they are doing a word-for-word translation rather than a sentence-by-sentence translations. It emphasises the fact that the Chinese have bad English. I would be very glad to do the translations for them.
• True → Ture
• Start → Satrt
• Breasts → Bubbles or Bubbies
• Trigger words: Rape

Bottom line

The steam version is censored but you can search the net to find the uncensored version

This is a good game if you don’t like doing a lot of reading. There are some good points and a lot of bad points.

Mizus Musings #1

Mizus Musings #1

As most knows, it's sales time cause Thanksgiving, Black Friday and all that jazz being big in America but somehow infects Australia like so rabid sales bug that we all can't help but be secretly gleeful about the option of procuring games at heavily discounted prices.
I should know, I can't help but try and get one or five games for under 5 bucks.

Since I basically with a partner who enjoys video games as much as I do and I have given him free access to my games, he helped me procure the last three games.
With that piece of info, I present the next few games I shall hopefully be posting about soon.

I also have the Ultra Sun of Pokemon that will be the possible key subject of my daily game progress musings between the PC and PS4 ones. Yes, I plan to try and update daily. Basically talk about games, progress of games and random things like gaming goals or even projects backed that is gaming based.

Expect a poorly written up first impression of Material Girl which I spent four hours today questioning myself and possibly torture the other half with it. I am now resisting the urge to go back onto the PS4 and playing more Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires but for now, working on that sweet new review.

Personal Post #8 - Why you should buy Hunie Sakura Bundle

Personal Post #8 - Why you should buy Hunie Sakura Bundle

   September 05, 2017       Mizu

It's been a while since I did any review or what not and I will happily blame life for draining me from wanting to do this.

So today, we are going to comment mainly on the fact that if you like the Hunie or Sakura series that you can get them from humble bundle for a cheap price of USD$10 or AUD$13.

Orrrr if you are like me, you been waiting for them all to come in a bundle and realise you have four already and then palm them off to your friends as a way to torture them with bountiful breasts upon kawaii anime girls and leave them questioning on not only why you play it  but mainly on why would you do this to them and if you really care about them
I mean, look at this list and I still have yet to install and play them and complain all about it cause I can!

So why should you get this lovely bundle?
It's a lot cheaper than buying the whole lot individually and a whole lot of action in one go. I mean, did I say that you get the two Hunie items as well? Cause you get that and do questionable things cause who doesn't love to play things that make people internally or externally question you.

So, now, I shall install the Dungeon and play that for a while and maybe, who knows, I may review it for my own amusement.

Video: Halp! How do I BioShock!?

So recently I have decided to go back to silently streaming/recording videos for my own mild amusement.

Todays video is a four part edition of me playing the remastered BioShock game that I got free off steam, due to having the originalish games previously procured on steam.

I have to admit, that the game looks nice but pretty much feels like I am playing the original game that I am rather use to, which is not a bad thing. I have yet to encounter any problems that other players have expressed while playing the game or I just don't care enough to really notice since I am rather enjoying the game, it's like walking down memory lane and that makes me rather happy as both a person and a gamer.
I am slowly gaining the courage to speak while gaming but until then, enjoy the videos and lets hope I make more to keep this up as a habit.

So, in my infinite wisdom and despite me saying I never play anything Hatoful again, I went and procured the holiday, remastered game of Hatoful Boyfriend.

I don't know whether it was due to sheer curiousity or sheer stupidity, I got this game on sale and shortly, I will play and give a first impressions of this game. Wish me luck cause I will be needing more than luck if it's anything like the other game of the same title.

On a side note, I shall be attempting to review and write up more things, such as the endings to a certain visual novel but until then, time to play with the pigeons again.

This little beauty came out some time ago and it joins the brigade of the recently obtained loot.

Considering I have played the first game some time ago and gotten quite addicted, I was very pleased to see that the second installment has managed to be seen on shelves here and even better that I manage to get the game and at a bargain price of $23, you would not believe how elated I felt when I took this baby home.

Considering I should one day do a review of the first game, I shall start with the second one for now.

Below is the following views of a vocaloid game fan.

Being a small Vocaloid fan, I procured yet another game dedicated to vocaloid and rhythm games where it involves a lot of jabbing at screens and trying to get past Great to earn more items to spoil little Vocaloids with, Kaito being my favourite.

This little beauty was released on September 11th here in Australia, so I got this a few days after initial release since I had only obtained Ultra Despair Girls on release.

Now, when it comes to these sort of games, it's best to obtain them early cause they only seem to be in once and quickly snatched up by gamers like myself.
Any search now for the game, in Australia, is out of stock. Though, this topic of opinion is for something I can do at a later date.

Now onto the opinion of the game.

So I recently obtained this beauty on September 10th, since Australia is forever behind obtaining games, though I admit it has improved over the years but that is another topic altogether.
This game is mainly on the PS Vita and sort of stems away from it's other titles in both genre and story telling, it is also more open, which is a nice change from the enclosure of the school.

I haven't been doing much in the aspect of gaming.
I have been playing a few games here and there and procured even less, in aspect of playable games. I do have quite a few loot items and probably sent just as long doing things in real life and delaying updates here, which is somewhat vexing.

I will do first impression reviews shortly on the few games and items I have recently obtained and try and spread it out over the next couple of days, since I may be busy doing a couple of things and setting up for my Birthday, which will both be about loot and Fallout 4.

So for now, I will share the pointless yet pretty loot I have obtained. Which is a new case cover for my 3DS and I have to admit, it deserves a few comments.

The cover has this wood aesthetic about it and the colours are bright enough to be noticed but subtle enough to make my DS very pleasant to look at. I also sort of like Kirby in this regard cause it shows the many faces and items of Kirby and his universe.
Also, it is very adorable and easy to interchange and suits most looks, I am sure there are people who have a set look for themselves and all that they own.

I still await the day when I can get the glow-in-the-dark Boo one.

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 - Chapter 1: The Penal Colony

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 - Chapter 1: The Penal Colony

So I procured this game some time ago and I finally got round to playing it between study and life. 
This is my first impressions.

So, you start off with Claire and Moira.
The intro only gave so much and the next thing you know, you are trapped in a prison. Unsure of where you are and why you are there but you do have a trusty bracelet with a voice that somewhat mocks and educates you. 

The mechanics of the game is simple, to a degree. You can switch between Claire and Moira and exploit their unique skills, such as Claire’s markmanship and Moira’s flashlight.

The enemies are a bit of a pain and you need to rely more on shooting weak points, they are not always their heads. This also applies to when you play as the other two characters.

The point of this chapter in Claire’s case is to escape the prison and find some help. After a lot of learning to play and backtracking with little direction, you manage to get out and find a radio tower. Which is great, considering here you find out you are trapped on a fricken island (code Veronica much).

Then you switch over to Barry, whose goal is to save Moira.
Here you meet Natalia who is more than what she seems.

She is, personally, the most helpful character in the whole game. she can see where the enemies are, I mean, how bloody awesome is that.
So, after going through the prison, again, you manage to also take an even longer route to the radio tower, but big news awaits you there.

That is the gist of chapter 1.

I personally like the build up for the next chapter and what this whole game contains and I look forward to playing more at a later time.

So the gist of the story is that you and your friends are traveling and end up having the car breakdown in the mountains.
An old man helps you out and lets you stay at his manor of a home. At first this is pretty awesome but the next day, the car is not shaping up any better and one of your friends is ill. That's not all.
The old man mentions he needs to leave for a few days and your character being a rash but kind person somewhat agrees to take care of the place until the car is ready to go.

This is just the beginning. For you and your friends now have to figure out the secret of a legend about the Mermaid Swamp.

Mini-Rant: The Banning of Hotline Miami 2

Mini-Rant: The Banning of Hotline Miami 2

   October 10, 2015       Mizu

In Australia, Hotline Miami 2 is banned for possibly, a dull reason.

I do not condone rape nor anything like that but after managing to buy a copy of this game, I decided to see what the huff is about.

After a quick research and play through the game, I discovered it only occurs at the intro gameplay called Midnight Animal and it is probably very brief.

If you don't like spoilers, please stop reading but if you don't care, then do go on.

Midnight Animal is basically a smut film style and is in fact meaning that no one is being raped, it's only insinuated.
Now, let me get something out. Today, I watched the first episode of American Horror Story: Hotel and in that episode, a drug addict is raped by a masked person with a spike shaped dildo, yet Australia is okay with showing this on television, ON TELEVISION, let that sink in. Should I mention you can see this in great detail.
Should I also mention that American Horror Story is notorious for it's dark and deeply sexual themes and is basically a MA rated show. Many other shows do the same thing and is allowed to be shown on our TV.
The game itself only shows one major thing, the man on top and pulling down his pants. That's it. Did you expect something more than pixels pretending to be in a sexual moment? Well, sadly, this game doesn't do more than that. Heck, even Grand Theft Auto and Saint's Row games show more, even The Sims are more raunchy if you activate cheats and remove the pixels obscuring the naughty parts.

The people they are trying to protect from this game can watch it on a prime time TV show and not bat an eyelid, but as soon as a game puts it in, let's not forget the player is warned about the sexual explicit scenes, also when it gets up to the scene, for those who said no, it allows you to skip it. therefore, it is okay for the game to be banned cause it's a game and children only play games, not the fine adults of the Australian society.

Yes, Video Games are for Children, possibly according to our fine leaders who still think that the gaming industry brings in no money for the economy which is a load of BS.
It's funny that in 2013, Adult gamers was treated like children and had to petition the government to grow up and let them have cake, I mean, R18+ classifications for games. Several years on, games are still banned despite this being out for us gamers to indulge in games of a more graphic and mature nature. Fun Fact: more games have been banned while the R18+ rule has been in effect. Yes, this is a sad but true fact for Australians.

So, dear people of the world, enjoy your games while us Australians remain envious and hopeful to one day drink from the enjoyment of these fine games.
