Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 doesn't look like the product of development hell at all. Despite the tight deadlines, The Chinese Room has created a decent game. Unfortunately, under such circumstances, it was simply impossible to replicate the scale of the first VTMB.
The main mistake of RuneQuest: Warlords is that it missed the chance to fix the flaws of Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector. The game didn't surprise me, although overall it turned out to be decent. For fans of RuneQuest, it's a real treat.
I enjoy playing Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition much more than modern Obsidian games like Avowed. That's because Neverwinter Nights 2 offers exciting stories, interesting companions, and a rich role-playing system.
Gears of War: Reloaded looks good. The remaster is definitely worth playing through once — out of curiosity. It's just a shame that various bugs can spoil the fun.
Broken Arrow is a strong debut from Steel Balalaika Studio and one of the most compelling real-time tactics in recent years, equally engaging in single-player and online modes.
Simon the Sorcerer Origins is a nostalgic adventure set in a vibrant fantasy world filled with jokes. Visually, the game ranges from “acceptable” to “excellent”.
Stronghold Crusader: Definitive Edition is a worthy remaster that expands on the classic castle-building strategy game. However, most of the new features are designed for experienced players.
