  1. Nel panorama videoludico, quattro sviluppatori solitari sfidano i budget faraonici. Con design sperimentale, creano progetti che superano le mega-produzioni per coesione meccanica, ignorando le scuse logistiche.

  5. @gamingonlinux currently playing #Borderlands4 and #DyingLightTheBeast, both are pretty good, despite numerous problems with BL4. I also played #VoidBreaker last month and waiting for a new big update since it's in early access

  10. So far I enjoyed playing #VoidBreaker. I have completed the game on normal mode and did 1 iteration. Not sure if I will be going to the next difficulty, but I sure want to try other combinations of mods and play styles.

  13. Due to not having anything interesting to play until Borderlands 4 and Dying Light release, I spontaneously decided to give #VoidBreaker a chance after seeing a meme on Reddit. I'm not a fan of randomized/roguelite games, but the concept is pretty much interesting.

    I've only unlocked the rifle and haven't yet beaten the first boss, but there's too much bullet hell for the first zone to my liking.

    Void/Breaker es otro FPS roguelke con una estética muy ultrafuturista.

    Esta vez te toca escapar de las crueles garras de una malévola IA que te obliga a permanecer en un ciclo de pruebas sin fin. Pero parece haber esperanzas, porque su omnisapiencia no parece ser completa.

    Que le den a la IA, y en el juego tb.

    Sale este año, a to esto...

  20. VoidBreaker: Ending the Dark Age

    Can Tucker Harwell end the HPG blackout?

    VoidBreaker, a new BattleTech novel written by Bryan Young, was released earlier this month. It follows a Clan Sea Fox Watch agent on a mission to locate Tucker Harwell in hopes that he has the knowledge and ability to fix interstellar communications.

    Spoiler Warning: This post will contain some spoilers for the book, but I’ll try not to reveal too much of the actual plot.

    For more than two decades, both in and out of universe, BattleTech has been in a Dark Age. For the release of the MechWarrior: Dark Age game line in 2002, the setting’s timeline jumped from 3067 to 3132 and the new plot kicked off with the events of Gray Monday, 7 August 3132, resulting in hyperpulse generator (HPG) stations across the Inner Sphere failing. The network of HPG stations run by ComStar is what had allowed for fast and reliable interstellar communication, and their failure isolated thousands of worlds. The chaos that followed saw the outbreak of small conflicts in a collapsing Republic of the Sphere that formed the backdrop for the new collectible miniatures game. No one knew who was behind the mysterious attack on the HPG network, but no one was able to fix the stations either. The Inner Sphere was forced to fall back to less efficient and reliable JumpShip couriers in order to gets news and messages between worlds.

    Target of Opportunity, released in 2005, saw the first glimmer of hope for restoring communications. In that story, set in 3135, a ComStar genius named Tucker Harwell managed to repair a single HPG station on the world of Wyatt. Unfortunately for him, that success made him a target of pretty much every faction in the setting as they each wanted to be the one to bring communications back.

    Tucker’s story continued through 2009’s A Bonfire of Worlds, 2020’s Rock of the Republic, and 2021’s Hour of the Wolf. He was held captive by a militant splinter of ComStar, freed by the Republic of the Sphere, and then was the one to find Devlin Stone and wake him from cryosleep. Despite his efforts, and the various forms of motivation attempted by the faction’s trying to use him, he was unable to replicate his success on Wyatt. In Hour of the Wolf, BattleTech’s Dark Age era officially ended with Clan Wolf rising to the position of ilClan, but much to ilKhan Alaric Ward’s disappointment, that victory didn’t automatically bring an end to the HPG blackout.

    VoidBreaker picks up Tucker’s story after the events of Hour of the Wolf and shepherds him into the ilClan era sparked by Clan Wolf’s victory. It also starts the setting on the path out of the Dark Age with the hope of an HPG station fix that can be replicated.

    Starting in April 3151, the novel follows Kenja Rodriguez, a Clan Sea Fox Watch agent. She starts the story on a mission to raid Irian Tactical Communications Corporation in order to retrieve research information they have on HPGs and sabotage the corporation’s efforts to repair them. After that mission’s conclusion, she receives news of Clan Wolf’s victory on Terra and is tasked with a new mission: She needs to find and capture Tucker Harwell. From there the novel follows her months-long mission to locate, capture, and then protect Tucker as he works to restore HPG communications through August 3152.

    Because the novel follows a Watch agent on a secret mission, VoidBreaker has less of a focus on military operations and BattleMechs than most BattleTech novels, but they still show up at a few pivotal moments. Instead, readers get a deeper look at undercover operations, interstellar chases on DropShips and JumpShips, and some brutal zero-gravity boarding actions. As much as I enjoy stories about big, stompy BattleMechs, I always appreciate when authors give us views of different parts of the setting.

    While the story is almost entirely from the point of view of Kenja, I feel like Bryan Young did a great job with the character of Tucker Harwell once he was introduced. The physical and mental hardships that Tucker’s been through in the nearly two decades since he fixed Wyatt’s HPG could be seen in his behavior and interactions with other characters. He’s a man who has been kidnapped, tortured, and betrayed multiple times, and someone who knows some of the Republic of the Sphere’s darkest secrets, and I think the book gave readers a good sense of that. Bryan wove those traits into the story, and then gave Tucker his moment of triumph as he managed to finally replicate his success and bring another HPG station online.

    Tucker’s new fix, which gets applied to a few HPG stations by the novel’s final chapter, promises to bring a true end to BattleTech’s Dark Age. That doesn’t mean the whole network is fixed though. There are thousands of worlds in the Inner Sphere and each of their HPG stations will need to be fixed. I’m sure there will be more twists and turns for Tucker and the Inner Sphere before the work is done. That said, it is good to be on that path.

    The only part of VoidBreaker that felt a bit off to me was the antagonist’s actions towards the end. Overall, I think the reveal of his identity and motivations were well handled, but the decision of which world he brought Tucker to felt like an odd choice. While Kenja muses on possible motivations for the choice, I would have appreciated something a little more concrete as to the reasoning for what felt like an extremely risky choice on his part. Ultimately though, the story could have played out the same on any other world he chose, so it’s just a minor quibble in an otherwise very enjoyable book.

    As a final note, while VoidBreaker sheds some more light on the blackout, readers should not go into it expecting all of the mysteries to be solved. We get a bit more information about why HPG stations aren’t able to send messages, and a desription of how Tucker’s new fix works. However, there is nothing new to resolve the mystery of who was behind the Gray Monday attacks. That is left for future fiction or to remain an ongoing and unresolved mystery of the setting.

    I recommend BattleTech fans pick up a copy to read, especially if you’re a fan of Tucker Harwell or Clan Sea Fox. Like the recent Trial of Birthright, it shepherds characters from the Dark Age novels into BattleTech’s new era and helps to set the stage for what promises to be an interesting time for the setting.
