My #1 best game of all time. And it's not even close. What a monumental achievement by a team of ~30 people...

The game is unfinished. Acts 1 and 2 are one of the best RPG experiences I've ever had. Act 3 completely drops the ball and endings are disappointing. I recommend waiting for definitive edition, so you can get the full experience you and this game deserve.

Constant server connection issues. The game is literally unplayable. Don't waste your money.

This is a scam, get the original HOMM III with HD mod for PC. It looks better, plays better, has mod support and costs whopping $2.

This game has literally nothing more to offer than Dishonored games. It has quite bit less in fact. Less powers, less locations, less interesting "story" and characters. It also somehow has much worse AI than both Dishonored games, which is baffling. I'm a big fan of Dishonored and wanted to like this game but it's painfully average, and definitely not worth your time.

The game doesn't upgrade to PS5 version. The issue seems random but widespread (look up the forums). This is unacceptable.

Great visuals, good soundtrack, hot waifus. The rest of the game is absolutely trash. I can't fathom how anyone could've made this and thought it's a job well done.

The game is literally unplayable. It doesn't have any camera speed settings.

It's a 3D platformer, which are notoriously hard to create. Just a bad idea done okay'ly.

No native controller support and **** K&M controls. No, I'm not going to use steam input, nor should I ever be forced to use it. Literally unplayable.

Unfair, unbalanced and very poorly executed from the tactial side of things. Also, extremely repetitive. The art direction is great, but there's nothing to sink your teeth into.

Truly God-like Roguelike. I can't believe I have to say it, but: If you absolutely hate roguelikes, you're probably not gonna enjoy this one. Because it's a roguelike. That you hate. So maybe don't play it instead of buying something you hate and writing a negative review. ...just a thought.

Absolutely one of the best if not the best action RPG of all time. The story leaves a lot to be desired, for sure. However, DDDA brings to life amazing combat system, with 9 flexible classes, the best RPG boss battles and great progression. It innovates on many other features like the day and night cycle that actually matters, companion system, and endgame content. From its original release in 2012, there still is absolutely no a-RPG that holds a candle to DDDA. As for optimization, I don't know what the hell are people talking about. Since the release on GTX 970 & ancient i7-3770, you can get 100+FPS in 1080p. For my target 60FPS, I could mod in a heavy ENB and texture overhaul with no issues (which I recommend btw). Please, just get it on a discount and play it. You can thank me later.

Terrible character controls make the game borderline unplayable, and definitely not enjoyable. I seriously don't know what yall smoked to give it a 10. The original Super Mario Brothers controlled much better than this.

There's a great game somewhere in the idea but Death Stranding is definitely not it. If you're not starved for something different and/or have a lot of free time (I clocked in at 53 hours), don't bother. I appreciate the fresh approach to open-world traversal and semi-innovative multiplayer and that's a weak 7/10 for me.

I'm about 60% done with the game and ready to give my honest opinion about it. This is a tough one to judge. A tough one because everything that is not gameplay is pretty much 10/10. The graphics can't get much better on this hardware. The soundtrack is amazing. The writing superb. The world, ecosystems, NPC's awesome. And yet the gameplay is absolutely horrendous. Here is why: - The control scheme. I think every sane person can agree it's pretty bad. Complicated, unintuitive and inconsistent, no point writing an essay about it. - The actual controls of your character. The animation is very, very heavy. It's not realistic (unless Arthur is constantly drunk and drugged), it's impressive looking. While I'm okay with having running disabled in camp/certain situations why the hell can't I fast-walk outside the camp/buildings? The only three options available for the most of the game are: slow walk (you move even slower than NPC's), run and sprint. It's not immersive, it's immersion breaking. The only choices I have is to walk so slowly, my companions scream at me to hurry up and I can't effectively get anywhere or run which is way to fast to be immersive. The lack of fast walk outside the camp is just mind-boggling. - The mission structure is insane... ly bad. Missions consist mostly of walking/riding (read holding 1 button) while listening to dialogue. The rest of it is mediocre gunplay and heavily scripted events. Many people argue GTA followed the same principle (I don't like comparing these two very different series but for the sake of argument and mental exersise let's do this once) GTA missions indeed are structured comparably but driving cars in GTA is actually very engaging and one of the strongest points of the game (not to mention other means of transport such as helicopters, planes, bikes, you name it). In RDR2 riding horses is cool, but gets boring so very quickly the devs themselves decided to add a cinematic travel so you don't actually have to do it. - The scripting and autosaves are so bad, they give me flashbacks to 2003. Most of the missions have you follow a very specific path. If you walk too far you failed. If you don't go to X in time, you failed. You've fallen too far behind, you failed. Et cetera, et cetera. The game heavily punishes any kind of creativity, it wants you to do exactly as you're told and see exactly what you're intended to see. In addition to that checkpoints are sometimes awful (one example is while sneaking to a certain place: if you get discovered at any point you have to restart and the checkpoint is... before a 5-minute carriage ride). The post is too long as it is so I won't give many examples, but this is the first game in maybe 10 years where I've actually noticed a terrible checkpoint system. - No difficulty settings. While the gunplay is serviceable, the lack of difficulty makes the shooting sequence tedious as hell. Arthur can literally eat a few shotgun rounds before he falls and has a slow-mo op deadeye ability pretty much always up. The only difficulty there is comes in the form of incredibly clunky controls that can ocassionally get you killed. These are my main gripes with the game. I think RDR2 is an amazing piece of entertainment that fails hard as a game. My final score so far would be somewhere between a 4 and a 9 out of 10. It honestly depends on what you want from the game. If you want any sense of challenge, progress or mental exersise, there is absolutely none to find here. If all you want is to chill, take in the environment and watch a good story unfold this is the product for you. I've developed a love-hate relationship with RDR2 as I believe games should take advantage of the medium and use gameplay to enhance the experience and do things way outside the reach of the "traditional" entertainment. That's why it irritates me to see a product so caught up in itself, it forgot it's a game. If you've gone through this post this far, I want to apologize for any weird grammar you had to go through. This is not my native language and I was in a bit of a hurry but tried my best. Thanks for reading.

I was very disappointed with this game. It has nice artistic design and very good audio but the gameplay becomes boring really quickly (for me it was 4 hours). You become so overpowered in chapter one that the enemies are no threat even on the highest difficulty but if you don't take the upgrades gameplay becomes even worse, because you limit your options. Overally huge disappointment for me :/
