So we\u2019ve arrived at yet another Summer Games Fest showcase! Actually, <em>this<\/em> is a legitimate E3 showcase, taking place during one of the three E3 days. God, I hate this mess of names. Anyway, two days ago we had the Devolver Digital showcase, dubbed Devolver MaxPass+. It had been preceded by a trailer for the showcase, but seeing as the storyline of this cinematic universe has become so convoluted and tried, I didn\u2019t even watch it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I simply don\u2019t care about these characters and their edginess anymore. I just wanna see some games. Specifically, I\u2019d love a release date for <em>Shadow Warrior 3<\/em> and <em>Death\u2019s Door<\/em> out of this conference. Fingers crossed we have some fun! Let\u2019s get to it, shall we?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/F3sclotZlb0?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><figcaption><em><strong>Credit: DevolverDigital<\/strong><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The show burst open with a new gameplay trailer for <em>Shadow<\/em> <em>Warrior 3<\/em>! This one has whips, kicking, swords, deadly traps, and <em>so much blood<\/em>! Honestly, it feels like a spiritual successor to <em>Bulletstorm <\/em>at this point. Just everything I could ever want from that sequel. This trailer is really showing off its <em>Doom Eternal<\/em> influence, and it is <em>chaotic<\/em>! I love it, but still\u2026 no release date. Just the vague 2021 again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now we get some exposition, showing Devolver showcases back when they were fun and not annoying. It seems this year is taking a look behind the camera and imagining the pitch meeting for the past four years or so. It\u2019s kind of funny, but I just want to see the games at this point. I\u2019m so drained by all the developer interviews, I just want Devolver to shove games down my throat, and damn good games at that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They\u2019re trying to be funny and mostly failing, so I\u2019m just gonna take a step back and wait for games.<br>Devolver likes to spoof the genres that are in the mainstream, and it sounds like this year they\u2019re talking about \u201cgames as a service.\u201d I am not sure what to expect.<br>Update: Devolver MaxPass+ <em>is <\/em>a subscription service? Maybe? Is it all a joke? Dammit, just give me games! We are seriously 10 minutes in with <em>no<\/em> new game announcements or release dates. That\u2019s it, I\u2019m skipping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mwcsoR4rjwY?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><figcaption><strong><em>Credit: DevolverDigital<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally a new game! I hate that they called it a \u201cpremium purchase,\u201d but whatever. <em>Trek to Yomi<\/em> is a 3D sidescroller about a samurai fighting his way through a burning village. It looks beautiful and it\u2019s completely black and white. I\u2019m down. Looks sick. It\u2019s coming out in 2022 for next-gen consoles and PC and oddly, it\u2019s being made by Flying Wild Hog, as well. How are they doing two games at once? How big <em>are<\/em> they?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next up is <em>Phantom Abyss<\/em>, which I actually didn\u2019t know was being published by Devolver. This quickly became one of my favorite games of this Summer Games Fest, as it\u2019s a procedurally generated race against ghosts to explore a temple. Players work at the same time to find and steal a totem from a big spooky temple guardian. Whoever makes it out with the totem wins, and that temple can never be attempted again. It is sealed and lost forever. It sounds like an absolute blast, and it visually looks fantastic, too. Early Access begins on June 22 and I am <em>so<\/em> there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now some more boring SNL skits. I guess they\u2019re selling MaxPass+ clothing on a website? I am <em>not <\/em>checking this stuff out, I <em>really <\/em>do not care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This next game absolutely blew me away, I didn\u2019t write anything until the trailer was over, I am <em>so<\/em> astonished by the look of it! <em>Wizard with a Gun<\/em> is a multiplayer sandbox game about a cowboy with magic powers\u2026 and a gun. It looks incredible, <em>sounds<\/em> incredible, and I can\u2019t wait to get my hands on it now! I don\u2019t even necessarily love isometric survival games, but throw in the ability to play it with others \u2013 and cowboys \u2013 and it\u2019s a pretty easy sell. <em>Wizard with a Gun<\/em> comes to Nintendo Switch and PC in 2022. I look forward to seeing a lot more from this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ldtX4d5qanA?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><figcaption><strong><em>Credit: DevolverDigital<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Next up is <em>Death\u2019s Door<\/em> and, to be completely honest, I\u2019m skipping the trailer for fear of spoilers. From the makers of <em>Titan Souls<\/em> \u2013 one of my favorite indies \u2013 this game follows a crow as he fights his way through a dark world of monsters. It\u2019s one of my most anticipated of the year and I really hope there\u2019s a release date attached to the end of this trailer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>July 20!!! Yes!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the creator of <em>Pony Island<\/em> and <em>The Hex<\/em> \u2013 two games I\u2019ve never heard of \u2013 comes\u2026 wait, &#8220;card-based?&#8221; Oof. Actually, this doesn\u2019t look like a deck builder at all. This looks like an actual card game, complete with environmental puzzles, horrific creatures dwelling in the shadows, and fourth-wall-breaking scenarios that change the gameplay entirely. What <em>is<\/em> <em>Inscryption<\/em>? I have no clue, but I\u2019m on board. Thankfully, it will be out later this year.

Think <em>Contra <\/em>meets <em>Ikaruga <\/em>meets <em>The Legend of Zelda<\/em>. At least, that\u2019s what I\u2019m getting from this trailer, with some humor, as well. It looks like a real blast, and again, it\u2019s only available as a physical product through one retailer. That\u2019s some unique marketing. Get it while it\u2019s hot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This weird showcase is coming to a close, finally. Now they\u2019re spoofing NFT\u2019s in some way, but I\u2019m too tired to care. Oh, it was all a dream.

Don\u2019t call it a video game conference and do barely nothing. Please. These just keep getting worse and worse. Anyway, I thank you all for suffering through that with me.
