The ARC Raiders community has been having a lively discussion about whether or not the game should include player-versus-player combat. Some players enjoy the excitement of fighting each other, while others prefer to concentrate on the game’s story and missions without the risk of being attacked. This isn’t a small difference of opinion – it’s a core disagreement about what makes the game enjoyable.
The idea of the unknown can be scary, but also exciting. Humans are naturally driven to survive, even in difficult situations. This likely inspired Brendan Green, creator of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, to design a game that pushes our survival instincts. In Prologue Go Wayback, artificial intelligence creates a unique landscape each time you play, forcing you to rely on your own skills to survive. Many fans are hoping the game will eventually offer a cooperative multiplayer mode so they can experience this challenge with friends. Will Brendan Green grant their wish?

The campaign in Anno 117 is structured around a series of acts. It begins with managing the city of Juliana in the Latium province until the new emperor, Calidus, forces you into exile. The second act takes place in the distant province of Albion, where you must deal with a military conflict against the local Celts and their leader, Voada. Once you’ve either defeated Voada in battle or secured peace through diplomacy by completing three missions, Emperor Calidus will permit your return to Latium, bringing the campaign to a close.
To grow your economy in Anno 117, you’ll need to consistently find and utilize more valuable resources. These better resources require skilled workers to produce. You get these skilled workers by upgrading homes. To upgrade a home, you first need to make sure its residents have everything they need, like food and clothes, and then spend a little bit of building materials. When you upgrade a home, you’ll lose some of your less-skilled workers, but you’ll gain more highly-skilled ones.

These new versions of Dragon Quest and Dragon Quest II aren’t simple remakes; they’re fresh takes on the originals, more so than what was done with Dragon Quest III. It’s unclear whether the developers avoided a direct port – considering there are already ten different versions of the first two games after about 40 years! – or if they thought the originals were too outdated for today’s players. I personally love the first two Dragon Quest games, even more than the famous third one. Dragon Quest I is a wonderfully concise RPG that cleverly works within the hardware’s limitations. Dragon Quest II, however, aimed for greater scope than it could realistically achieve.
The game puts you in the role of college students who also happen to be demon hunters. They arrive at a strange island university where saving the world quickly becomes as important as keeping up with their studies. It strongly evokes the feel of early 2000s shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Daria, with a visual style reminiscent of classic Persona games. From the start, the professors seem suspicious, young people start turning up dead, and the sarcastic, unconventional students are clearly hiding painful pasts. It really captures the vibe of a beloved, but cancelled, early 2000s WB show – and I’m completely enjoying it.
