On Steve, Soulframe, Warframe and New Ambitions

At the end of Tennocon 2022, we got a reveal of a brand new game, one that is now in development. Soulframe is going to be a brand new game, leaning much further towards fantasy over science fiction. Digital Extremes are now making two games instead of just one, which means that some people are going to move towards Soulframe. Most notably, the biggest person moving to the new Soulframe project is Steve Sinclair, the creative director of Warframe. You know, the guy who has led Warframe through thick and thin, all the way back to Warframe’s humble beginning as… [Continue Reading]

My Very Early Thoughts on Soulframe

Wilderness - taken from the Soulframe website

So it looks like Digital Extremes are making another game. At Tennocon 2022, a brand new game, built on the same engine as Warframe, was released at the end of the show. Dubbed Soulframe, while it had the same artistic style, what little we saw definitely set it apart from Warframe. This is high fantasy, a stark contrast to Warframe’s high sci-fi. And what we’ve seen so far as been… interesting. Curious even. But also rather vague. In the trailer, we see a new land, some new people and a lot of fog. There’s story in there somewhere, hidden behind… [Continue Reading]

Tennocon 2022 Felt Kinda Rushed

Well, Tennocon has been and gone, and frankly, I feel a tad disappointed. It fall felt kinda rushed and thrown together last minute. But it also felt like I had seen most of this before. It all felt a bit like Tennocon 2021, with honestly not a lot going on. At least we started with a brand new release. Khora Prime has been released and she is utterly beautiful. And, speaking of beautiful, Titania just got a brand new deluxe skin, which looks amazing. To the point that I want to play Titania. There was also some sort of weird… [Continue Reading]

A Quick Unboxing Article

Two Mysterious Boxes to open

For most of my life, getting anything via the post is a long, slow, tedious process. Shipping things to Aphrodite’s Island of Love is tricky because, quite obviously, Cyprus is an island. But on top of that, mail here is just slow all round. It’s very easy for things to get delayed, but eventually, the post always comes. That’s why I rarely order things online, I don’t want to be waiting forever for whatever it is I order. However, I have been known to purchase the occasional cool thing. Back in March and April though, Warframe was celebrating its anniversary,… [Continue Reading]

Not a Fan of the Drifter

Operator and Drifter

Please note that this article is very spoiler-heavy. If you haven’t played the New War, I recommend going and doing that before reading this article, so you can avoid the biggest spoiler of the quest. It’s also probably worth playing the Angels of the Zariman quest too, since I’ll be mentioning that.

Operator and Drifter. Frankly, if DE can have this as a loading screen, then I can use it in a spoiler-filled article.

Eternalism is a bit of a cop-out

The Plains of Eidolon in stormy weather

Eternalism is the idea that every choice we make creates new realities, one where you make one choice and one where you make another choice. Both choices now exist in two different realities and carry on as new, separate timelines. For example, during the New War, we are showed a cut scene of our space kid in a classroom, trying to keep everyone calm until we meet the Man in the Wall. This entity makes you an offer: take the Man in the Wall’s power and save yourselves; or remain where you are, refusing the demon’s assistance. In this moment,… [Continue Reading]

Such Wonderful Parkour

I know I said the other day that I’ll be playing less Warframe, but something occurred to me, and I needed to get in-game to find out. The thing I found out was that the Voidshell skins look a bit like Rhino’s rubedo skin. Since I was there though, I thought I might as well do some quick bounties or missions or something. After all, there is a season pass in Warframe as well, and I’m at a woefully low level. Not that I need anything from Nightwave, but I can’t say no to more Kuva. As I loaded Warframe… [Continue Reading]

Taking a Break from Warframe

After 4000 hours, countless articles and years of running around as a bright yellow Volt, I finally think it’s time I took a proper break from Warframe. Now, normally, I wouldn’t bother telling anyone that I am taking a break, but we get a lot of traffic here on the Daily SPUF that is Warframe-related and normally somewhat up to date. If I’m not playing Warframe though, I can’t be up to date. So I think it’s worth announcing. But anyway, I don’t know how long I won’t be playing for, probably just for a month or so. However I… [Continue Reading]

An Addiction to the Jump Key

If you have been browsing the Daily SPUF for a while, you may have noticed that our chief editor hates anything to do with parkour, platforming and jumping puzzles. Before any sort of parkour can be done, there’s always some hesitation. After all, most games kill you if you fall into a pit. However, despite my uneasy parkour ‘skills’ (I am not skilled in any way), there’s something odd about how I play video games. I rarely have my feet firmly planted on the ground. In fact, when I move around, I probably jump too much. But why? Why am… [Continue Reading]

Maybe Wukong is a little too strong…

Wukong and his Celestial Twin

With every anniversary event in Warframe, we are also given a peak into player stats. After all, it’s interesting to see which frames are popular and which ones aren’t. However, for the last couple of years, we’ve had the same Warframe at the top, quite a bit higher than expected. The frame in question is Wukong Prime, which has managed to beat all three starters when it comes to most-used Warframes. But why though, why is Wukong Prime so popular? Plenty of everything. Wukong has got a little bit of everything. He has a damage-dealing twin that uses our weapons;… [Continue Reading]
