There is no doubt that we live in quite twisted times. Organizational problems that the coronavirus gave us on many levels, raging inflation reflected in practically every area, and many other factors resulted in numerous changes in our everyday life. Galloping paper prices made the previous issue of “CD-Action” more expensive than the previous ones. Of course, this trend is not pleasant to anyone, which has not escaped the attention of the crew of the popular magazine. This is how our beloved magazine turns from a monthly into a quarterly . We’ll see how far this decision will change in April, meanwhile let’s see what we can find in the latest issue.
As always, we start with production for which we will have to wait. For a good start, we are greeted by the report from the early version of Blacktail , a promising production of the Polish studio The Parasight, in which we will play the famous Baba Yaga, in its much younger version, who has not yet decided whether she wants to follow the path of righteousness or wickedness. It is worth following the development of Dolmen , a game referring to sci-fi horrors and the work of HP Lovecraft, because although there is still a lot of work to do, you can already see that the title has a lot of potential. It is also impossible to pass by Dragonball: The Breakers indifferently , because although it does not make the best first impression, it may be a unique and successful asymmetrical chain store.
The undoubted, though not the only, star of the January issue is the latest installment of the Halo series, which is wildly recognized in the West, and completely indifferent to players in our country . Infinite , because it has such a subtitle, is an excellent and content-rich opportunity to check the reasons for this popularity, without the need to delve into the history of the predecessors. Another hit of the issue is unexpectedly a fan modification. Not only is it the first production of this type that has received an extensive review, but it is also on the cover. Judging by the results of most of the Last Tavern Tournaments, none of you will have any doubts about this, because we are talking about the Gothic II: Chronicles of Myrtana – Archolos expansion., which is a must-have fashion for fans of this ancient production. Of course, the review section does not end there, as here we will also find such interesting creations as Dusk ’82 , which is a prequel to the hit FPS, and made in a retro-squared style, Jett: The Far Shore , which is a non-obvious mix of several genres and tells about conquering the new world and many, many other texts worth reading.
Journalism, as always, is good. This is the third time and this time the last one, starting with the history of the Tomb Rider brand , showing that an appropriate approach to employees and respect for their work can work wonders. If you already miss the Christmas atmosphere full of Christmas carols and red Santa Claus jackets (I do not mention snowmen, because they can be found in various editions throughout the year), you can read the article about the beginnings and splendor of Christmas editions of popular games and it is not about a temporary change graphic design in mobile and web productions. Quite unexpected, but also interesting is the text presenting the history of the global phenomenon of Rubik’s Cube.
Want to know how the editors rate Resident Evil 4 VR , Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon , Solar Ash , Surviving the Aftermath , Marsupilami: Hoobadventure , Ruined King: A League of Legends Story or Wolfstride ? Or maybe you are curious what the cash of the future looks like, the art of making trailers, what is the damn NFT all about or how much light and heavy sins weigh? All this and much more, of course, in the latest issue of “CD-Action”! And now I have to wait until April.
