This definitely feels like BF3 & 4. Gun handling, movement, the intensity of combat, these things really are on point. There is a lot going on while fighting. Tanks exploding, soldiers shouting, grenade impacts, jets flying above - it really is what the community wanted these things to be. Especially the sound design is spot on. Weapons, explosions and vehicles sound extremely realistic. This really adds to the games atmosphere.T he classes are in my opinion well balanced. I like the fact that the support class can build walls, revive and support with medi/ammo packs. Assault is leading the front with a mix of Rifles, a Shotgun and a ladder to find new vertical ways on the Battlefield. Sniping is spot on, it really feels amazing. And the engineer can either support vehicles or destroy hostile ones. Maps are smaller than usual. This can be a bit annoying, especially in game modes like Breakthrough, where its often hard to find open spaces to start a sneaky flank, because there just is no space to advance and the enemy team has everything covered with little effort. The outcome of this is an attacker front thats pretty much standing still, throwing nades and hoping to get enough kills at a certain location to advance which often fails. And thats coming from a person that loves playing infantery only on Rush. The UI of the menus is horrendous. There is way too much stuff on your screen and its really hard to find certain settings. Graphics of course are beautiful, even tho the general atmosphere of BF1 was better. In conclusion this is an action stuffed Battlefield game thats really fun to play. Right now with the upcoming new Maps and the Battle Royal Mode we can look at an interesting future of the game. The foundation for an excellent experience is there for sure. 8/10

Never ever have i played a better game in the horror genre than Silent Hill 2 (Remake). The psychological displeasure of this game is underlined with an atmosphere like no other. There are very few jumpscares, but the ones that actually are in the game are phenomenal. Because of this circumstance you always have to stay sharp and concentrated. But the true fact that makes this game so interesting is its unmatched ambient. Fog, noises, the people you meet, the town itself. You always ask yourself - "whats even happening here?" until the plot gets revealed and you do your own research afterwards, which is absolutely mindblowing once you realize the true nature of all the protagonists. The little details are unmatched for this genre. Facial expressions, dialogue hints, metaphors - you name it. After finishing the game I was still very invested and to this day still I occasionally read lore or watch videos about the true meaning of many scenes, enemies, the main characters etc. even tho I finished the game nearly a year ago. Combat is intense and very fair. It can feel slow at certain times, but thats exactly why fighting is so pleasurable. The enemies are terrifying, boss battles are insanely well done with great variety of attack-patterns. Puzzles are extremely smart designed. Pacing is phenomenal. The story is one of the best written stories not only in the gaming-world, but in fiction/theater/movies in general and i truly mean it. I will 100% replay this and get a physical copy for my PS5 too. This is in my Top 5 Games of all time, if not even higher. Must play. 10/10

The pacing of this game was just phenomenal. I know a lot of people complain about a "slow start" or a "slow pace" in general, but that truly is the beauty of this title. You truly appreciate walking in a town, in camp, in stores and so on. This game makes you breathe in the whole experience and doesn`t just rush right through the story and its general world. It really makes you appreciate the small details like dialogues of NPCs, wildlife, the animations of the characters etc. Truly refreshing even tho the story is about 40+ hours long. I just wanted to keep it going the more i came to the end of it. Even after finishing the main game i just kept exploring, looking at things and appreciating the world building mixed with the atmosphere of lightning, NPCs and audio. Of course the characters in this game are written beautifully showing the best and worst of mankind. Must play. 10/10

This is a must-play. While the story is nothing particular extraordinary, the gameplay itself and especially the world with its many terrains, towns, lively citys and towns is truly an experience no one should miss out on. NPC dialogues are extremely well done and interesting with many options to choose from while answering/talking. The whole fantasy setting is so well made, that its hard to find another RPG that can live up to this kind of status (maybe except Skyrim). You always want to keep exploring or hunt for new Armor/Weapons. Both DLCs are great and while i liked the main game i thought the stories of the DLCs were better. The location of Blood & Wine was my favorite, as it was representing a Provence-like setting with vineyards, castles and lakes. Its a shame it took me so long to finish, but i will 100% come back to this, while i wait for Witcher 4! Masterpiece! 10/10

Incredible experience overall - this game is finally where we all wanted it to **** combat system is astonishing, i personally preferred to play as an assassin, combining stealth with speed and the sheer amount of weapons and also "chrome-upgrades" is immense. Character progression is paced fitting and satisfying - cars, bikes, weapons are piling up over time and are nice rewards for your efforts of keeping things under control while also trying to get cult status in Night **** story is pretty action-heavy (who would have guessed) and is well built but also a bit basic in my opinion. In general Cyberpunk 2077 (also including the DLC) is an excellent adrenaline rushed experience with humorous elements bullying late-capitalism-ideologies mixed with an insane creative mix of futurism and the "real world". Combat mechanics are absolutely incredible and the game looks next gen indeed. A must play experience! 9/10

This is not a game in the common sense. It`s a mix ****, a story and art. Its like you want to describe someone an emotion or feeling they never felt before. Be warned that you will/could encounter themes of depression and loneliness during this experience. You probably should experience this in one go instead of having breaks between chapters. 8/10

True masterpiece - loved pretty much everything about this game and i played it 12 years after its release. While AC Brotherhood was my first AC game I just had to come back and play this game and I didnt regret it for a single second. The quintessence of what made AC so great in a single game with an amazing protagonist, truly iconic! Puzzles are amazing, climbing - hiding - staying silent while being effective and accomplishing your mission, this game has it all! The best part about this game is that its truly simple in so many regards, but while being simple they really make you want to do all these tasks which make you progress or learn something about history, artifacts, people who used to roam these italian streets and its architecture. This combined with incredible music makes AC2 what it is today - a magnificent video game with soul & allure. 10/10

The two main components this game combines are - a mellow scenery & funny/interesting dialogues. It´s a very calm, but also exciting experience. Especially recommended for outdoor enthusiasts & explorer. The world itself is often restricted, which makes it hard to spend hours and hours of exploring actually. But the dialogues while having encounters with wildlife, other hikers, or incidents that take place are really on point and feel realistic. Navigating yourself around is fun - especially while finding new ways how you can advance. Short but very detailed and moving! Improvise, adapt, overcome! 8.0/10

Marvellous and touching! An incredible Platformer with many different abilities, a simple yet heartwarming story with amazing art-style and wonderful colors! If you are into Platformers with a touch of sweetness this is the game for you! While you progress you unlock many different abilities, which you'll need to advance. Level-Design is amazing, colors and design are beautiful (close your curtains - it's even better in the dark), characters are extremely well implemented, puzzles are hard but not impossible, music is top and Ori is adorable! Must play if you like platformers (with a lot of abilities)! 9.5/10

If you have a few spare hours to spend on a game and are not motivated enough to learn lots of new controls/mechanisms, but also want a fun experience with interesting puzzles and a dark themed story, this is the game for you! Its very similar to LIMBO which I liked a lot. But also it's more detailed when it comes to graphics and effects. Controls are exactly the same. The puzzles are very easy at the beginning and get harder and harder over time, but they are all manageable. In general I would say they are a bit easier than the ones in LIMBO (which doesn't mean the game is super easy). At certain parts i was stuck for more than 30 mins, but it was always worth the effort. Over all a very fun game, which I can recommend - especially when it's for sale. Keep in mind it's very short! 8/10

Magnificent, heartwarming, emotional and overall incredible. Never ever was I prepared for such an amazing experience. Before I played the game I thought this would be a stereotypical-teenage gossip drama and I was absolutely wrong. The game feels like a movie in which you can make your own decisions which ultimately changes the story itself. Characters are well written and interactions with each one of them feel super realistic. In general I would say the main focus of the game is on the developing relationships with the people around you and also the consequences of your own actions in the bigger picture. The bonding with others feels super emotional and I definitely had goosebumps more than once while playing. Graphics are good but nothing special, the atmosphere is amazing. Gameplay itself isn´t fast neither slow paced. You can decide where to go in a small level-based area, but exploration within the level is completely available. The Story is absolutely crazy and super well written. Decisions have a huge impact on everything and can be really hard at times. There are many twists and turns which made me shiver a lot. The setting and the characters within the story are very well placed and all of this fits together perfectly. The time it took me to finish the game is satisfying. Not too long and not too short. In my opinion this is a must play game for everyone who likes meaningful stories with emotional encounters and a strong message. 9.5/10

Absolute classic ****, never fails to entertain... The immersive and impressive world of Skyrim is a shining example for every RPG out there, how it should be done. Mountains, Caves, Towns, Taverns, Cities, Lakes, Islands -everything in this game is explorable and has its unique touch of atmosphere mixed with secrecy. Graphics are stunning for a game thats been released in 2011 especially when you mod it to the maximum. Encounters with NPC´s feel lively and dialogues are well written, even tho the dialogue options are minimalistic most of the time, which can give you a feeling of restriction. The main-story is good, not great but definitely good, but the quests and storylines I enjoyed most were from the DLC`s. You feel important within those stories. You are a small piece of a bigger issue, trying to accomplish your goals, the outcome depends on your actions and it feels like you are climbing the ranks with every small step you take. The many different playstyles Skyrim offers vary from being a farmer living in peace and silence, over a wizard/necromancer with magic spells to a warrior who kills his enemies with sheer force or stealthy with intelligence and perfidiousness. Fighting can feel kind of dull in this game, but the many options how you level your character gives you a huge variety of different playstyles and you can just mix it up a lot. The game is kind of buggy sometimes- NPC´s running in walls, objects flying around, getting stuck and so on... Nonetheless even tho it has it´s issues it´s a great game. Overall this is a must-play game for every RPG/Fantasy-Fan and i would definitely recommend to play it! 9/10

This is the first time I tried playing a Fighting-Game and I really wasn´t disappointed! The Game is great to play when you have friends coming over and just want some quick-action, 1v1-gameplay. Fights are decided in a BO3 (Best of Three) and the many characters offer a variety of different playstyles. I finished the story and it was a great way to try out new characters, experiment with combos and to have a quick overview of the many different combat aspects of the fighters. Whilst I haven´t tried out the multiplayer yet i can already say that the Krypt (which is basically an interactive shop) has unique artworks, fatalities/brutalities, new outfits and fanart to unlock and is very interesting for collectors. Overall this is a very fun game to play and the best way is to play it with some friends at a Gaming-/Drinking-Evening! 8/10

What an adventure it was! The characters in this game are incredibly silly, sarcastic and sometimes even adorable. The story was awesome from start to end and even the outro was iconic. Puzzles are challenging but not super hard, you will spend a good amount of time thinking about your strategy to finish each level. The AI/Robots are super well implemented in the game and the main NPC´s feel like real humans with a personality and humor. I wish the story would have been double as long as it is, because I had a blast playing it. I also played CO-OP with some of my friends and I would highly recommend doing that too! You need good coordination and teamwork to achieve your goal. It´s impossible to not have a good time while playing with friends, since the puzzles are very well planned for two people and it´s hilarious to see your partner fail while a sarcastic robot makes jokes about the two of you! Looking forward to try out the community-maps! I highly recommend playing this game, it´s timeless and I definitely don´t regret playing it in 2020! One of my new All-Time-Favorites! 10/10

The scenery and music in this game are absolutely stunning. Very nice setting and awesome graphics combined with a smart and eventful story. The end includes a pretty big plot-twist and i really didnt see it coming. Some Puzzles can be kind of hard so be prepared to figure it out by yourself if you are dedicated enough or to use Google sometimes. I would recommend to get it in a sale, since its very short playtime though. Absolutely recommend to buy it if you are into Puzzles, great atmospshere and detective-stuff! 8/10

What more can I say then "Pripyat Mission"? This game includes the most iconic and epic Call of Duty-Mission of all time, which conquered pretty much everyones heart while playing it. Considering the age of the Game as well, its incredible how it manages to fascinate me, still in 2019 to play this Masterpiece. Especially the Silencers have something really satisfying to them. An absolute Must-Play-Title for every Shooter-Fan out there, doesnt matter how old you are! 9/10

Minimalistic Graphics combined with minimalistic controls, but the end-product is fascinating. Dark and melancholic atmosphere combined with a 2-D-Boy as main-character who solves puzzles and doesnt try to die a cruelsome death. The game is absolutely worth (literally) every cent and it should cost way more then it does. Grab it now! Shoutout Dave for gifting this to me! 8.5/10

Definitely a must-play for every Gamer, especially people from the Horror-Genre. A lot of things done right, especially considering the age of this game. Fighting really isnt very special, but you still have a nice combination of weapons and skills. The thrilling and heartwarming story combined with the absolutely horrific underwater scenery this game has, offered a lot of joy playing this title. Level-Based-Gameplay and some cruel characters that will hunt you in your worst nightmares. Amazing and looking forward to play the other Bioshock-Titles! 8.5/10

RPG done right. Open world with weird/funny/scary encounters in it, that make you wanna play this game for hours and hours at a time. Story is good, but dont hope for too much. Fighting isnt the most pleasant thing, since the controls and also the weapon-handling are very basic. What really makes this Game a classic are the NPC´s, its open world and the apocalyptic setting. I would still recommend to mod this game, to make it a little more lively. Especially the wasteland is really empty and pretty much everything looks the same -if unmodded. Grab it in a sale and you will have no regrets! 8/10

A game filled with Action, claustrophobic Tunnels, ****, Russians and lots of Monsters of all sorts. When it comes to atmosphere this game really has it all. The tunnels are very well constructed and you feel like going through a huge labyrinth most of the time. In these canal-system you will find some Human-Camps in which you really feel the agony of the surviving people in this demonic-like/apocalyptic World. The Human-Species is suffering and this game knows how to present it well, with a heroic story of a young man who tries to make the world a better place again. On your journey you will meet a few companions, loose some, make new friends, do all kinds of stuff like engeneering, dissabling traps, tiptoeing your way around enemies and lots of shooting. The story is well written and playing this game feels like a mix of Fallout 3 (scenery), Call of Duty (action-combat) and Resident-Evil (horror). Short 9 hours filled with agony, heartwarming moments and apolcalyptic monsters. You have a few weapons/grenades to choose from and also customization-hubs to advance your inventory or customize already owned weapons. I played 80% of the campaign in Hardcore-Mode but to be honest I´d rather not. Some levels especially at the end are pretty hard and it just destroys your immersion to do the same level again and again until you finally manage to pull it off. Combat feels okay, but there isn´t much recoil, which makes gun-handling fairly easy. For me stealth-gameplay was the most enjoyable way to play. All-in-all a great experience and I am really looking forward to play the next titles in the series! Worth every penny! 8.5/10

Justin Roiland really knows how to entertain. The Game is super fun, with similar voice-acting as in Rick & Morty this masterpiece entertains for a short 5 hours of gameplay, but its still worth the experience! Fighting isnt really that great, but the unique voice-acting from Justin Roiland really hits the nail on the head. Voices are pretty much the same as in Rick & Morty whilst Trover has the voice of Morty and some enemies the one from Rick. Puzzles are fun and not too hard. The atmosphere is silly whilst also fascinatingly weird and the characters you will meet on your journey are overwhelmingly funny. A must-play for every Rick & Morty-Fan out there! 9/10

Looking for a bloody, schizophrenic, demon-hunting Viking-Game? This is it! Whilst the fighting can feel a bit boring after a while, pretty much everything else in this game is perfect. Interesting, easy to follow Story combined with a dark and scary atmosphere and a badass, strong woman as Main-Character who tries to defeat her inner demons and solve a sad plot. Graphics are stunning and especially the cut-scenes make you fall in love with it. The last 30mins of the game are incredible and just thinking about playing this in VR really makes me shiver! 8.5/10

In this review I will list the Pros and Cons of this game and also write down my opinion in a summary. But before I do that let me say this- the game is very political and also 95% of the content in this game depends on reading. Dialogues, Encounters, Thoughts, the World around you, everything pretty much is written down and there are very few cut-scenes. So if you aren´t in either of those things this is probably not the game for you. Lets start with the Pros: -interesting characters -dialogues are extremely satisfying -many dialogue options -lots of skills to level -sounds are amazing -detailed explanation of surroundings, thoughts etc. -cool outfit options -absorbing main-story -gripping political breeze And the Cons: -checks which are necessary to progress get you stuck sometimes -no open world and small map -sci-fi aspects that seem kind of weird in this setting Summary: In general this is a very good game and i enjoyed my time absolutely playing this game. Never ever have I played a game before, with so many fascinating dialogue options. The characters (especially your partner) are entertaining (some in a positive-some in a negative way) and you really want to get to know every one of them. There is also a wide range of skills, with which you can form your own type of main-protoganist the way you want him to be (with some restrictions, because of the white/red-check system). These can be quiet annoying if you are unlucky. At two points in the game I talked to every NPC and exhausted all the dialogue-options without a possibility of making progress anymore, which really **** and I am not the only one with this problem, it occurred for quite a lot of people. So my tip is to save a lot! Pretty much before every white/red-check i saved the game for the possibility to achieve it if failed before. This will save you tons of time and you wont have to load older save-files to continue with the story. Side quests offer a wide range of variety and I enjoyed doing them as well. The whole game feels like a book, with options to influence the story really. Art-Style is beautiful and the world seems alive, even tho there isn´t a lot of movement (sound is absolutely stunning). The story has it´s twists and plots, it´s conclusive and I really didn´t expect the end. Some people will like it, some wont. Me, for my part enjoyed it. That said the game is a great experience and brings in some fresh air of entertainment in the RPG-Scene, totally recommend it! 8.5/10

Absolute Classic ****. I played the story in 2019 and to this day its one of the best Shooter-Stories anyone can experience. Awesome settings, with great characters and lots of action, feels like watching a Blockbuster to be honest. Recommended! 8/10
