10 YEARS OF GW2 – A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE

Hello peeps! As a little countdown to GW2's launch anniversary on August 28 I decided to dig up some old memories and take a small look at my personal journey through the game. Each day I'll make a post about another year.

DAY 2: 2013

In 2013 I essentially just kept doing what I did the months before: Explore Tyria, make plenty new characters (none of which survived to this day), and attempt to take some nicer looking screenshots:

(I probably had 3 fps looking at the shader settings here)

You know what else happened in 2013? The first Super Adventure Festival!

Probably the most elaborate April Fool's joke ever made. My absolute favourite festival to this day, SAB was pure joy from the start. I always remember the one from this year in particular because I had a spontaneous uncomfortable doctor's appointment that day, and asked my mum to tap a key on my PC's keyboard once in a while so the game wouldn't kick me out while I was gone. I really didn't want to lose progress haha (also, bless my mum for doing that). Also, if I recall correctly the main menu used to play a chiptune version of GW2's main theme at the time. That was pretty neat.

2013 was also the year I took this screenshot...

...because I was in awe at the amount of people present. Biggest zerg ever seen.

Also... this:

It's probably really not that funny if you weren't involved but getting lost trying to find your dead party member while getting chased by a champion has given this moment iconic inside joke status to us. It appears poor Nathanaël was actually stuck inside a wall and ended up having to port to a waypoint. Also I wish I could say I spell better than that nowadays but I really don't.

That year I also reached level 80 and set foot into Frostgorge Sound for the first time.

I instantly fell in love with this map and it used to be my favourite for many years. It's just so stunning visually.

(starting to wonder if I didn't know about first person camera)

That pretty much concludes 2013 already. Yes, I did miss out on doing LS1 content since I hadn't finished the personal story yet and didn't really understand there was new story happening. Onto 2014!

Permanent additions to the character roster that year: None.

Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart

Developed by Insomniac Games

Published by SIE

Release Date 2021

Tested on PC (16 GB RAM, Ryzen 7 7735, RTX 4060)

MSRP 59,99 USD

It’s a great joy, a rare one, to get the chance to play a non-frills singleplayer game with to-do-point mechanics. Mechanics are vital parts of a game, how it works and how the player is supposed to play the said game, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is on another level, it is super fun, mechanics are kept to minimum, and they don’t get in your way when you’re playing, and everything is steady and consistent. Rift Apart deserves all the praise I can present here and more.

As a gamer I have never played a Ratchet and Clank game before honestly, this is my first time going into the franchise, this title is one of the launch titles for PlayStation 5, which later released on PC with additional technical capabilities and features. In my playtime I tried to keep the game at steady 60 FPS therefore I did limit some graphical settings to medium, as a result of that, you may see some slight pixelated assets here and there, otherwise the game looks extra sharp and crisp. 

Rift Apart takes the story from the previous game of the franchise, Ratchet and Clank: Into the Nexus, which was released back in 2013, so it is highly likely that you are familiar with the franchise or the preceding game, the game opens with a short and concise tutorial section which plays as the sequence that sets the tone and scene for the rest of the game. Ratchet and Clank are galactic heroes and a parade is being held in honour of them, yet Ratchet and Clank acknowledge that they have been out of the game for sometime and haven’t done much since their last mission from the previous game. Right at this point the parade gets invaded by Doctor Nefarious, the long-time arch nemesis of Ratchet and Clank, during the fight between them and Doctor Nefarious’s goons, Clank surprises Ratchet by showing that he fixed Dimensionator recently, Nefarious grabs it and opens dimensions one after the other, and we get sucked into them respectively. As parallel universes are created and visited, we find ourselves in a parallel reality where Doctor Nefarious is the beloved and feared dictator of the entire galaxy. From this point onwards, we play as Ratchet, Clank and Rivet (who is another rebel in this parallel reality).

Now I’d like to share some gameplay clips, here is the first boss fight:

This is one of the high-action scenes, where you’re required to make quick decisions:

As can be seen in the clips, action-adventure spirit is greatly executed on gameplay level, backed up by superb environmental detail and vivid locations. One thing that stands out prominently is that, I never felt the need to interact with menus in this game, the game is always on-the-go, and the game always guides you to the next location without making you feel ‘okay I should arrive the targeted location’, that’s why the map that can be found in menu is never needed. The world is offered to you before you and the linear story progression takes you to the next place smoothly.

The game makes use of dual-reality setup as well in a number of missions, basically you switch between two dimensions and progress as they allow you.

Lastly, you can purchase and upgrade new weapons with the currency that you collect by destroying boxes around and killing enemies:

Also, the menu offers map, cosmetic items for the character and light codex entries that can keep you up with story of the franchise:

Rift Apart is a great family-friendly action game that will make you fall in love with, it is lively, enjoyable, teeming with energy all-around.

Quake

NA release: 24th March1998

PAL release: 24th May 1998

JP release: N/A

Developer: iD, Midway

Publisher: Midway (NA), GT (Pal)

N64 Magazine Score: 79%

Like with Duke Nukem, Hexen and DOOM, this is another port of a FPS that released on PC a few years prior. The N64 version of Quake (which I’m calling Quake 64 to make things easier) was mostly the same, but had altered (and missing) maps, making it a slight variation of the original – luckily the 2021 remaster of Quake includes the N64 maps as an additional option (just make sure to turn off the horrible CRT filter).

Quake is like DOOM but with a bit more 3D, featuring platforming. It follows the structure of having to hunt down keys to progress levels white are a bit maze like and are often disorientating due to everywhere looking the game. It was no doubt impressive back in the day, but the genre evolved a lot between when this originally came out on PC and when it came out on N64.

Apart from slight level changes, the other big difference with Quake 64 is the music. The original had a wonderful soundtrack from Nine Inch Nails (which is a genuine game soundtrack, not just some music they made) while this has its own soundtrack which sounds a bit like DOOM 64, being mostly background creepy ambient noise.

Quake is a fine game by itself, but there’s not really any reason to play it over the original.

If Midway hadn’t delayed Quake in order to add a two-player mode (which should have been a four-player mode, of course), we’d have struggled to recommend Quake 64. It’s a basic port, little more. It no way improves upon the original which, two years from its first release, is a bit of a joke.

- James Price, N64 Magazine #15

Remake or Remaster?

The remaster of Quake included an additional download for the N64 version – although if you’re not on PC, you’re stuck with a horrible filter.

Official Ways to get the game

You can get Quake for Gog and Steam.

And now, just a few weeks later, those questions around pricing have been answered. The Asus ROG Ally will initially ship with the configuration detailed above for £699 in the UK and $699 in the US. That makes it approximately £130/$50 more expensive than Steam Deck's top-end 512GB NVMe SSD model and £350/$300 more than its bottom-end 64GB eMMC unit.

Gaming is an activity enjoyed by both young and older people. According to Statista, in 2021, there were 3.24 billion gamers worldwide. People are playing games across different devices, such as consoles, mobile devices, and PCs. As gaming is getting very popular in the present world, game developers are testing their games to enhance the experience for users. Before the games are released in the market, developers test all functions of their games to identify bugs and errors, like invisible walls, missing textures, high loading times, sloppy net code, unbalanced weapons, map holes, deformed characters, and lethargic controls. Game app testing is very crucial in the game development process, as it ensures that users’ gaming experience is fun, seamless, and without unpleasant interruptions.

Some of the factors leading to the poor usability of games include:

1. Availability of Different Types of Games

In the gaming industry, various types of games are available, and the user journey of each game and player is very different. As every game is different from the other, errors and bugs related to usability for these games will also be different. For example, in games like Minecraft, as players have the freedom to explore the whole gaming space, errors associated with user journeys will be more; however, in the case of PUBG, where players verbally communicate with each other while playing the game, errors related to network issues are likely to be more.

‍2. Compatibility and Performance of Various Gaming Devices

In terms of devices used by gamers, there are three types of devices in the market: high-end, mid-end, and low-end devices. As most gamers use low-end devices, gaming companies may face challenges in increasing the user experience of these devices. Battery drain and processing speeds are important factors that can affect the performance of gaming devices. Low-performing devices can also reduce the usability of the games.

‍3. Less Engagement Time

User engagement is the main priority of game developers. However, if gamers don’t enjoy the usability of a game, they may switch to other games. Many gaming companies are struggling to increase their user engagement and session length. They need an effective testing solution to identify the reasons for less engagement.

‍4. Low Frame Rate Stability (FPS)

If a game’s FPS is low, it may affect its usability. Game developers have to test the FPS of their games to perfect the gaming experience. Gaming companies need a continuous testing solution to overcome this challenge.
