hey turnbas lovers Leaf here back at it
0:03
with another sponsored video this time
0:05
we'll be checking out this upcoming Mega
0:07
turnbas PVP game from Fusion interactive
0:10
called fusionist like who doesn't love
0:12
cool looking Mech and turnbas battles in
0:14
this channel now before we begin I'd
0:17
like to reiterate that this video is
0:19
sponsored but at the same time we did
0:21
also want to showcase something that
0:22
looked pretty unique to the turnbas
0:24
lovers community so what exactly is
0:27
fusionist well fusionist is actually a
0:30
multi-layered nft project where the
0:32
economy heavily revolves around tokens
0:34
there are three layers to this project
0:36
that they're calling game one game two
0:39
and game three or colonize conquer and
0:42
unite respectively game one is a
0:44
building simulation SL Resource
0:46
Management game and this is primarily
0:48
where you'll be earning most of your
0:50
resources to build new mechs and this
0:52
will be accessible directly through a
0:54
browser game 2 is a turn-based PVP game
0:56
and this is where we'll be focusing much
0:58
of our attention in this video video and
1:00
game three describes itself as explore
1:03
and expand across the Galaxy claiming
1:05
territory and resources but that's
1:07
really all we get for now so let's talk
1:09
about game two or the conquer game of
1:12
fusionist compared to game one game two
1:14
will be available on Steam and on the
1:16
epic game store but the two games tie in
1:19
together so I'd imagine you still have
1:20
to maintain some sort of activity in
1:22
game one to make any progress or even
1:24
participate in game two right off the
1:26
bat you can kind of already see the
1:28
graphical Fidelity and the amount of
1:30
thought put into the visuals the game is
1:32
visually appealing and the mechs even
1:34
more so let's talk about the mechs for a
1:36
little bit the mech in this game are one
1:39
of the things that I really appreciated
1:41
especially because a lot of them have
1:43
pretty interesting designs while the
1:45
same type of Mech usually has the same
1:47
frame or silhouette the diversity of
1:50
details between two different mechs are
1:52
pretty nice even though these two Max
1:54
are pretty much both Strikers they looks
1:56
and personality and weirdly enough how
1:59
they perform and combat are both pretty
2:01
different I just really like the overall
2:03
visual design that they were going for
2:05
here so a huge nod to the people who
2:07
made these good job anyway fusionist is
2:11
a turn-based strategy game that offers
2:13
strategic depth and tactical gameplay
2:15
players assembly a team of five mechs
2:17
each with their own unique skills and
2:19
roles to play there's also these things
2:22
called cores that give significant Buffs
2:24
to your Mech and sometimes alter how you
2:26
play them aside from that Mech skills
2:29
also have element reactions that create
2:31
certain effectss under the right
2:33
conditions for example burn deals damage
2:35
over time electric chains damage between
2:38
enemies and Frozen can freeze enemies in
2:40
place Max also have five different rooll
2:43
classes the striker the Keystone the
2:45
Buster the bullseye and the Apostle each
2:48
of them feel a very specific role with
2:50
some exhaling in close quarters combat
2:52
While others Provide support from a safe
2:55
distance using all these aspects of the
2:57
game you'll be building a team of five
2:58
unique machs to do better battle with
3:00
other players but how exactly do you get
3:02
these mechs well as I'm making this
3:04
video mechs are obtained by spending
3:06
resources to scan for Mech blueprints
3:09
every scan reveals a Mech and their
3:11
equipped weapons then you can choose to
3:13
craft or discard them but note that
3:14
crafting a Mech also costs important
3:17
currency but having dupes isn't exactly
3:19
a bad idea considering that you're going
3:21
to need them anyway for upgrading your
3:23
main team see in fusionist leveling up
3:26
mechs requires sacrificing another Mech
3:28
of the same time and of the same level
3:31
but this really boosts the effectiveness
3:33
of a Mech every time you level them up
3:35
leveling up mechs may also give them
3:37
weapons so I don't really see any issues
3:39
in doing so now the game is primarily
3:41
focused on PVP but if you're not
3:44
confident with your abilities yet then
3:45
you can always try doing some missions
3:47
that pick you against AI enemies first
3:49
now let's get down to the nitty greedy
3:51
of the combat fusionist is first and
3:54
foremost a turn-based tactics game which
3:56
means that combat takes place inside a
3:59
grid and aside from having better units
4:01
team combinations and positioning is the
4:03
key to winning battles the basics are
4:05
there and well established you can
4:07
reposition your Mech during their turn
4:09
and perform attacks to any enemy that is
4:11
within their weapon range but there are
4:13
also a lot of different skills that you
4:14
can use depending on the equipped
4:17
weapons and speaking of what skills your
4:19
Mech has is dictated by what weapons
4:21
they have equipped and the only real way
4:23
of getting you weapons for an existing
4:25
Mech at least as of right now is by
4:28
leveling them up but the skills that
4:30
I've seen so far are pretty diverse and
4:32
there are some that are already very
4:34
interesting I haven't exactly explored
4:36
every skill this game has to offer so I
4:37
leave them to you to discover this game
4:41
has a lot of depth in terms of combat
4:43
and while the game isn't exactly
4:44
finished yet it definitely has a lot of
4:46
potential and we are eager to see what
4:48
comes next in the future if you're
4:51
curious to experience the game for
4:52
yourself you can download the game by
4:53
clicking the link down in the
4:55
description now I don't really dabble in
4:57
the nft stuff so I didn't talk about any
4:59
of that in this video so for more
5:02
details about that like how to connect
5:03
your wallet and how to gain access to
5:05
the games consider joining the fusionist
5:07
Discord because they're the ones who
5:09
will be able to help you out with all
5:11
that crypto stuff and the community is
5:13
pretty helpful too so it's unlikely that
5:15
you'll have to wait long for a response
5:18
anyways this is basically the end of
5:21
this video but if you want to check out
5:23
some pure unadulterated gameplay you can
5:26
definitely stick around for a while and
5:27
see more of the game as always ways make
5:30
sure to hit like subscribe if you're new
5:32
around here and remember to follow
5:33
turnbas lovers for everything turn-based
5:36
this has been leaf and I'll see you guys
5:38
on the next
5:39
one so here we can see the deployment
5:44
phase so you usually want to have your
5:47
vanguards vanguards up
5:50
front and then dealers and supports at
5:54
the
5:54
back you can also see the enemies uh
5:57
deployment table here so you can roughly
5:59
guess where they'll be placing their
6:15
units seems we are the first to move so
6:19
the enemy has one Keystone one buster
6:23
one Bullseye and two
6:27
Strikers I think the first order of
6:30
business is to
6:31
get
6:33
my uh Bullseye or my sniper Mech to a
6:37
position where it can start dealing
6:40
damage but I don't I don't really want
6:42
it
6:44
fighting
6:46
uh someone that the Keystone is guarding
6:50
so I'll move this here for now and
6:53
moving it moving your Mech to a yellow
6:57
tile to this one and ends instantly ends
7:02
the turn but if I move it to the White
7:07
Tile I still have the opportunity
7:10
to do some actions uh either attack or
7:14
to move again but I'll move this guy
7:16
back for now to a safer
7:23
distance it seems the enemy is being way
7:27
too aggressive here moving his
7:30
Strikers just instantly forward but the
7:34
problem is if you do that they're
7:37
essentially open to any type of attack
7:40
and they didn't deal damage when they
7:43
first went in so what's going to happen
7:47
is well
7:51
[Music]
8:09
there is where the Keystone Exel uh when
8:13
the Keystone guards or selects an ally
8:16
to guard whenever that all Ally takes uh
8:20
range damage the Keystone basically
8:22
takes its place instead so your Mech or
8:26
your damage dealer will be mostly safe
8:30
uh during that
8:32
engagement doesn't work against AOE or
8:35
melees
8:40
though then this is the Apostle I
8:43
thought I
8:45
got oh wait no we do have the n n uh
8:48
Nano maintenance so this is the
8:56
heal and it's going to heal HP and
8:59
Shield health depending on what's
9:05
damaged now we're going to use the
9:07
Buster to deal a huge amount of
9:10
damage let's see oh wait this this one
9:14
also
9:17
has this one also has the freezing
9:19
element so we'll use
9:24
that so much damage
9:33
usually I like using the Buster to deal
9:36
with the Enemy Keystone but considering
9:38
that we can't reach the Keystone yet I
9:42
just Target whatever is available also
9:45
it added this Frozen defect which is uh
9:49
which adds damage negative damage
9:52
immunity from Frozen skills but this guy
9:55
is probably the only Frozen Mech in this
9:57
game so I don't
10:00
I don't think it's going to be that
10:01
useful the elemental effects become uh
10:04
significantly more useful the more of
10:06
the same kind of element mechs you have
10:10
on the field but I'll be able to take
10:12
out that uh Striker
10:15
and deal some damage to one of these
10:19
guys
10:22
here I think it's a good idea to move my
10:25
Striker just up close in personal and
10:28
then let's see normal attack evasion
10:32
slash gives
10:34
me ballistic computation for one turn
10:38
that I
10:39
think helps of uh helps Dodge Range
10:44
attacks but none of these guys here will
10:47
be able to deal ranged damage anyway so
10:50
I'll just use Evil slash it's just
10:52
essentially normal attack but just deals
10:54
more damage I'll hit their Buster take
10:57
out the shield
11:16
for this
11:18
guy let's
11:23
see I should just move this for now
11:27
engagement range is pretty much meley
11:30
for the Keystone unless you get or
11:32
unless it spawns with a weapon that
11:35
uh yelds range damage maybe a rocket
11:38
launcher but unfortunately it doesn't
11:40
have
11:49
that the sniper is going to try to deal
11:51
damage there but the Keystone is super
11:54
tanky so not really going to do much
12:02
the Apostle also deals some damage so
12:06
when it doesn't really need to heal or
12:08
when it can't heal you can just do
12:23
that unfortunate
12:33
the sniper I can try targeting this
12:36
Striker that's just constantly charging
12:39
at it but I feel like it's best to take
12:43
out enemies that are more V vulnerable
12:46
and deal more damage instead uh like for
12:49
this one we'll do
12:52
penetration uh but we'll choose the
12:54
Buster instead of
12:56
the bullseye because the enemy bullseye
12:59
while it may look like the a good idea
13:02
to take that guy out first there are two
13:05
problems here first it still has a
13:07
shield even if my shot deals a gazillion
13:11
damage that Shield will protect the HP
13:14
and HP will not drop also it has a
13:16
keystone here that's probably protecting
13:18
this guy so we'll deal with a buster
13:22
instead but it
13:27
misses I'll still deal with a bust but
13:29
use the striker this
13:32
time and there we
13:45
go finally my Keystone will get a little
13:50
bit of action
13:54
here but it's not really going to deal
13:57
much damage
14:24
I wish I could heal with the Apostle but
14:27
I don't really have a choice here here
14:29
so I might as well
14:32
deal a little bit of
14:40
damage now uh remember what I told you
14:43
earlier about the shield protecting the
14:46
HP that's only the case if there's only
14:49
a single instance of damage but for
14:51
cases where there are multiple
14:53
projectiles damaging a unit of course
14:57
when one of the projectiles breaks the
14:58
shield the remaining ones will then
15:01
damage the HP so those skills are super
15:04
great for enemies that have still have a
15:07
little bit of Shield health
15:16
remaining take that guy out and then
15:20
enemy is now down to two units now this
15:24
is basically just going to have to sweep
15:26
through this one
15:38
still has a little bit of Health I think
15:39
this is uh the best time to demonstrate
15:42
what I meant about how the shield
15:46
Works see that like uh my Striker
15:51
usually deals thousands of damage but
15:54
that one time it only damaged The Shield
15:56
because the shield protects uh
15:59
protects the mech from instances of
16:02
damage but even if there's only one
16:04
Shield remaining imagine imagine the
16:07
projectile or your melee weapon just
16:10
hitting the shield and not really
16:11
hitting the mech itself even if it deals
16:14
a stupendous amount of damage
16:30
we'll just have to take out these last
16:33
two
16:34
units
16:36
and that's GG
16:52
[Music]
17:10
and I think that about covers it
