Good write up! This game’s on my radar now.
Not usually one to say this but there’s a helluva lot of typos in this. Should be “than” not “then”. Chalk full? I think you mean chock-full.
Some really good points in this article, fairplay.
Surprisingly looking forward to this one!
Makes me think of Control, tbh.
Those digital sales figures are really impressive.
I disagree. Reviewing a game is not like reviewing a car, a hoover, or an inaminate object. It’s an experience. If it’s not buggy, that doesn’t automatically give a game 5/10. That’s cobblers.
Surprised by how well Rainbow Six Siege continues to do!
I’m loving The Outer Worlds, personally, but this is an interesting read with some good points.
Take ya time, folks! The game is gonna be PHENOM.
I liked it, but haven’t super gotten into it. As you can tell from my username, FTL is one of my fave games ever. I’ll go back to Into The Breach and try and get into it soon - hopefully it’ll click this time.
Looks super cool!
Really enjoyed Bad North - fun game!
I’m sorry, but that’s absolute cobblers.
Hope it comes west at some point
Yeah, because if someone has a different perspective to you it’s for them clicks, right? Lol
Per the article: "The truth is, I don’t actually hate Control. There are some decent, well-meaning ideas hidden in there. At the heart of a good-looking game is a weird world with some solid action gameplay. However, about two thirds of the title is spent backtracking aimlessly around a lifeless, repetitive structure with very little authentic tension, atmosphere or agency. These issues really got in the way of my enjoyment of the game. And I know that Remedy have done better and can do ...
Possibly one of the most overrated games of the year imho. It’s so boring.
Tempting price for The Division 2, for sure.
