Ill keep this short; Graphics are okay, not good. Looks like a budget title. Sound is okay, great music, okay weapon sounds, some characters are great voiced (princess Kamea for example), many chars are badly voiced. Story is standard, no surprises. Not many cinematics, clearly a budget title. The biggest flaws are in the mechanics of the game. There is not much tactical depth. You move, you shoot, thats it. A big problem are dificult spikes. For no reason i suddenly faced heavy mechs while i still had light and bad medium mechs in my lance. Since time is running against you its a fun-killer in a game that uses a budget outside of combat. I had some bad expierence like that, killed most of my fun. In the end i ended my playthough because it is just frustraiting to fight in a 50 ton mech against something that is far heavier. All in all a ton of potential but when i compare it with the mech commander titles those are far better and they are friggin old. Not a good conclusion.
Terrible expierence! The game is shallow and cards are not really compelling. The name of the game could be ANYTHING and you wouldnt think that is strange. I got no elder scrolle vibe from the game except the music and even the music is just okay. From a gameplay perspective the lane concept is not really a great concept in my opinion. Gives room for stupid game endings. What is not great too for the balancing is that you need at least 50 cards in der your deck. Right now there is not enough draw in the game to make such a big deck work. You draw 20-30 cards an after that the game is decided. Such big decks make luck a much bigger factor. One thing that make me quit the game really quick is the UI. Its unpoliished as hell! Looks okay but there are too many loading screens and it takes the game too long to load. Deckbuilding is a pain in the ass in my opinion, the text on the cards is too small too its hard to read it. All in all a bad expierence. What is laughable is that the game comes into a competetive market with already established brands like Hearthstone or Shadowverse (i played both) and the price tag on the game is kinda high and the progression rate not fast enough as a consequence. If youre not blizzard you need to go down the route of shadowverse. You need to be generous. Elder scrolls is not generous in my opinion it cost just like hearthstone in the end and more compared to shadowverse. I think the game will fail in the end. Plus i had zero fun but that could be my taste.
Darkest Dungeon is finally out of ea!I played it during ea and it was **** was not horrible because it was buggy or bad, it screwed you over big time and in a scummy **** this still true?Lets find out: Visuals:I like the artstyle.Really dark and everything blends together very **** a cartoonlike look and i think even if you dont like that style in general in this game its so fitting youll like **** course the game is no Far Cry when it comes to effects but that is not necessary. Sound:The voiceover is well **** ancestor will speak about thinks, comment on things and most of the time it fits the situation very well.After some time it can be too much i think! Gameplay:Let me say it that way:If you like being screwed over constantly this game is your thing.I dont like that.I like hard games where you have to think.Darkest Dungeon can(and will) screw you over in the dirties **** example with crits from monsters.Maybe youll receive 4 crits in your first battle and the result will be so much stress that you might have trouble getting through the **** youll receive a desease that lowers you stats so much that character becomes useless during that quest(and maybe even beyond the **** much stuff is super random, i dont like **** might screw your hole playthrough if you run out of money after a bad **** gameplay itself is solid but not more.Everything is very basic and sometimes even shallow.There is no big story **** make your own **** you dont like it(like me) dont buy this game. Conclusion:If you like the concept of the game buy it!This is game is a 10/10 for the right **** bugfree with good visuals and that rare these **** you search for more(like me) story for example and a fair game dont buy Darkest Dungeon.I had some fun with it but i got bored after 12 hours because of the missing story so i can give this game a score of 6 which is an "**** masterpiece here but still a good game.
This game starts so promising with many hints to 80+90s **** is this game falling flat to its face?Lets see: Sound:I really like the sound of the **** theme in the backround suits the retrotheme very **** voiceover. Visuals:The game looks for it trys to achieve pretty **** pixel-artstyle looks great and reminds me **** time when i played games as a **** characters are memorable, the enviroment **** assets have been used twice which is a good thing in the modern **** the fights i think they could have done much better.Sometimes punches or kicks wont connect that well.Looks stupid.Might be a bug, i dont know. Gamrplay:Up to this point the game was an easy 7 or 8.With the gameplay everything is falling **** first 1-2 hours are **** have enough progression an story to keep you interested.After that bad design kills every will to play more, at least for me because the game gets repetetive as hell pretty **** core-problem is that you lose stats on a daily basis and the loss is very **** after some hours youre just klicking your way through the game between work, gym and **** you do the other possible activitys you punish yourself too much because you lose stats and because of that you will lose fight and so on. Conclusion:In the end the mechanics of the game are so flawed that they overshadow everything great in the **** great visuals go into the garbage can, the nice sound too.What remains is a repeteive clickfest and **** much **** story for example is pretty interesting, funny and sometimes branching i think.With the flawed mechanics i was so bored i stoped playing and this is always not a good **** me the game is below average.Maybe they fix the stats decrease!That would help the game a lot and with that fix Punch Club would be a "must buy" for retrofans and fans of the genre.
Wow, where is the game in this desaster?I hated Fallout 3, loved NV and now they produce this kind of garbage that is even worse when i compare it to Fallout 3.Everything is dumbed **** story is a joke, alle the sidequests are boring as **** sidequest is like "go to X, X says "hey kill or clear **** real choices that matter.When i played F1,2,3 or NV at least i had some feeling the quest **** was great when it comes to sidequests. Your skills are now useless in **** need X amount of charisma, thats **** was so much better when you feel the build of your character matters in some way. The UI is a desaster!!!Its not only clunky as hell, its hard to navigate without a **** fights that **** VATS is a problem too because the time flows when you are in VATS and most of the time its hard to target certain bodyparts with the mouse. Tactical gameplay is not in this game.When you fight enemys above you level youll simply die.I tried just for fun to lure some tough raiders into a minefield with lots and lots of mines.They took nearly no **** scaling of the enemys is **** will find it either too hard or too **** a dozen of ghouls, no prob, minutes later one raider might run you **** cant roleplay that way i think and its no fun when a game scales so poorly i think. I saw some comment the shooting is so much ****, compared to F3 and maybe NV yes but those where no great games.What the hell is your standard?This is clearly no RPG and when i want to play a GREAT FPS i play a great one, not an abomination like Fallout 4.I play Wolfenstein for example with great visuals, great sound and so on!The gunplay is not even ok because everything is so clunky and **** many bad textures that i cant the enemys when they stand next to a **** **** the weaponhandling is weird too.I can talk about the framerate too.A great FPS runs with a constant framerate where i can shoot things with precision.Fallout 4 runs NOT **** you think Fallout 4 is an ok shooter go and play Wolfenstein or Shadow Warrior!!!! Bugs!!!Bugs!!!Bugs!!!I had some issues with bugs.Power armor is bugged as **** HUD is not displaying anything for example!According to my HUD in the armor i have no ammo, no health, no fusion core.This is **** bugs are there, companions fell through the terrain and died(they came back after i fasttraveld) and so on. The crafting seems nice, at first.Until you realize that you can just wait when enemys drop better stuff.This way i had a perfect 10mm after hours without wasting resources.I had to build the basic addon, on another weapon of the same model, trade the pieces, done.I have done that with most of my equipment and i had upgrades that needed the last ranks of weaponsmith for example when i was on a low level.That is just bad design because Bethesda makes it so some res are artificially rare and expensive.With my way you dont need that ressources.Should never be that way cause the crafting is a way for YOU to determine the way you want to play.Thats the plan from bethesda i think and they screwed this up. Visuals are pretty **** gives this piece of ugly garbage a 95??Of course, IGN.Cause they had no bugs and a brilliant looking game i **** engine is outdated and they say its ****!!! Conclusion:Boring as **** with bugs, clunky UI, no story, no immersion in the world and they dumbed down **** 4 way dialogue-wheel is the nail in the coffin.Without the bugs the game might be a 2.With the bugs its 1, barely, because you can start it.I was never that bored when i played a game.Bethesda, you **** **** at writing, at programming and at building world where RPG players can immerse **** the people that think this is a great game:You ****, i dont care if you allowed to have an own **** are a person without taste!!!
A syndicate remake/clone, ok here it is, finally.That was my thought until i played it some **** is it so bad? Sound:Nothing **** an indiegame ok but at least a better music or weapon sounds would be nice.When i compare it to Shadowrun Satallite Reign loses when it comes to sound.I miss memorable music and more/better voiced dialogues. Visuals:I dont think the visuals help the **** might fit the cyperpunk setting but everything is so bright that its hard to concentrade on the important **** you use the world scan for example the game throws far too much colours at you at the same time and you need the world scan often. Another problem is the **** constantly moving around a little bit and you cant rotate the cam freely.That can be a problem in some situations. All in all i dont like the artstyle **** much customization when it comes to your agents for example.Everything looks uninteresting to me compared to Shadowrun. Gameplay:The gmeplay is the real partycrasher.I understand when youre indie you might neglect visuals or/and sound but the gameplay is an important point and here Satellite Reign struggles the most. The AI is really inconsistent.Sometimes the AI spottes you behind cover, when i use the same cover after loading, it works(despite the same pathe of the security).That happened far too often to me and that is just one example.Another example is that the silent-kill sometimes not worked for **** does little to no damage but the guardsman called instantly reinforcements.Nice move! I get the feeling weapons in the world of SR are pretty weak.I need several seconds to gun down a weak guardsman.3-5 shots with a sniper rifle to kill the weakest enemy in the game out of cover?I get it, its a game where you sneak around but this is dumb. The pathfinding is broken too.Sometimes my agents order is "get into cover" and every agent is doing that.....except **** stands there and chills all **** spotted of course and the mission ends because everyone dies.This should never happend in this kind of game!NEVER EVER!!! Is there a story in this game?I think not **** so little story and its so uninteresting presented to the player that it is amazing.That might be ok in the 90s but its nearly 2016! I dont understand the XP **** for example is my hacker nearly 1 1/2 levels ahead of every other agent?What is the system behind XP distribution?Every agent got different XP and between my soldier and the hacker is a gap of 1 1/2 levels.I dont understand that. Progression in the game is too slow and the things you can to are so limited that its boring.When i compare it to Shadowrun again its laughable what you can do. Another big problem in the game is how saves **** cant save during missions in restricted zones.Combined with the bad AI/pathfinding this will become more than annoying. Conclusion:With all the things said, i think a person that like syndicate might like SR **** me the game is too flawed, too many opportunitys wasted and the AI and pathfinding problems break the game **** not a bad game dont get me worng but i had NO fun while i tried it **** so boring with no storytelling it pains me.Cant give this game a pass, sorry.Without the AI pathfinding problems the game might be a decent remake and a **** those problems are there and i cant ignore those points.Final score is just a 4.
Deathwatch is a ported mobile game from **** like X-Com, turn and sqaud based **** have movementpoints(most of the time 4) and you can spend these points to move and **** good is this game? Visuals:Not that **** looks ok in the **** tactical map looks not that great and i really dont like the **** angle the game uses is kinda awkward for me. Sound:Really terrible.I have no idea if this is a bug but for me the voiceovers is almost silent and i cant find an option to turn the vioces up or the enviromental sound **** "intro" for example is voiced and i cant hear **** good music in this game and this is a shame cause that is not really expensive i think. Gameplay:The gameplay itself is **** can do some things per turn including using **** problem is while this is all ok for a mobile game for a PC game this is not enough.Youll need some missions to unlock skills.Until then you are stuck with boring Marines.They can do exactly one thing:Shooting xenos and move.Unlocking skills costs XP.Most of the skills are expensive.When a skill costs you 12k XP youll have to play9-12 **** progression is too slow.Here you see that the mobile game was about buying boosters in the long term.They changed the game quite a bit for PC because no one would pay for progress in such an ugly and boring **** the PC port youll get packs for free.Youll unlock new marines, weapons and other **** for most things youll need XP(item slots for grenades and stuff need to be unlocked which gets quite expensive) which needs playtime. Youll need to play often through the campaign to unlock the better stuff and i dont think the content is interesting enough to do **** missions are generic and often boring.Sometimes they throw in a nice objective or the map is exploding for example and you need to be carefull where to go next. What i hate is when games are too easy and you cant change the **** your first playthrough you can only play on **** painfully dull because most of the xenos die pretty quick.They are not strong enough individually and they never really outnumber you enough.I stopped playing after 22 Missions i think because it was boring, repetetive. Conclusion:Right now the game is 10% off at 20,69€.I know the devs put really some effort into the **** problem is it never pays **** gameplay is solid enough for mobile but for PC it is too shallow. My rating for the game itself is a **** proble is it is bugged and suffers from technical issues.When i first loaded the game i thought my PC crashed.After 3 tries i was really pissed and googled it only to find out the game needs MINUTES(!!!) to load only the starting **** takes more MINUTES to load the mission.I looked one time at the clock, 5 minutes until i could really play.What the heck????My PC runs modern games more or less just **** not a new PC but when my PC can run Far Cry for example just fine this game cant do that to me.This might be a bug or not, its my experience.Besides the hilarious loading times the game crashes every 5-10 **** other game i play crashes. Because of the technical issues my final score is a 4.Dont buy this **** X-Com or one of it clones.Maybe at 10 bucks its a buy if you are a fan of the frenchise.
Wow what an overhyped game.I saw some payed promos on YT and was a bit hyped.After some hours into the nothing but disappointment remains.Lets look into the details: Visuals:Yes the game got a unique **** maybe not unique but you dont see this style not that **** a futuristic/cyberpunk-artstyle.Looks **** for the most part the game looks not that great.Especially in the fights it looks kinda bad.I played a lot of the classic PS2 strategic-RPGs like Stellar Deus.They looked more unique and they hold up to this day.When i compare Bedlam to these games i think the devs did an ok job but is this enough? Sound:Wow, really nothing shines **** weaponsounds **** are generic and dont have any **** there a theme, a backround music?I dont think so.I demand more when a game **** when it comes to **** can do so much things with the sound to make the player forget that everything else **** here?Nothing! Gameplay:Ok, visuals ****, sound ****, what about the core mechanics?In 2015/2016 i demand more compared to the old PS2 strategic titles of this genre.Even on PC the genre evolved quite a **** have games like Jagged Alliance on the throne of the genre and here comes a game that looks not great with a bad sound assets and......a shallow gameplay.That describes the gameplay pretty accurate, its **** cant equip weapons, different armor or do **** start out with **** soldiers, cant equip **** cant adapt your own play because of the very limited supply of **** healing takes FOREVER and everyone dies far too **** here comes the cavalry, the fanboys, i know you **** say "but it is meant to be a hard ****, a hard game, not a stupid **** enemy will rush you cause hey, hey have nothing to lose.They die, no one cares while your healing takes weeks and you will encounter enemys every 1-3 **** enemy will often dont use cover, instead the braindead AI will rush you, often instakill 1 guy per fight.Sometimes you awayteam will start the map seperated.Think about **** start your mission and 1 or 2 guys stand in the other corner of the map and between your 2 groups are enemys.This is unfair, youll lose guys in this situation because the devs made it so so you have a feeling of "wow this is hard".Nope, not hard, unfair.A big disapointment are the **** can choose what to do but wow, youll get no infos about what is going **** will say "you found X, what will you do" and you can choose options.That is so random and its not appealing to me, im sorry. Conclusion:From a technical point this game is ok at **** gameplay is shallow and **** customization and soldiers that die in a second and you are not interested in ****, what a boring game, i had fun for 5 **** only upside:No bugs.A game that bores me so quickly deserves a **** can compare this game to FTL.That was much more fun with more **** that, not Bedlam or how i call it:Badlame.
So many things so **** up in a game, why blizzard, why?First of all, i dont know how the prices in other MOBAS are for **** one **** skin for 10-30 bucks?Really?Sometimes blizzard bundles things together so you have to buy the hole package or youll probally never get a skin or ****?The problem is so many people are willing to spend enough money on 2 or 3 skins to buy a AAA title.This is so **** the things you can buy are cosmetic only for the most part and you can farm gold more or less easy.I play 1-3 games a day and unlocked heros for i think 50k gold in a ok period of time.Blizzard lets you play heros for free on a rotation, fair.I wish the prices for skins were lower so i could buy some of them and be happy to give something back for the **** not that much money, no.Even on 50% discount a skin is about 5 bucks.Makes me sad. Besides that, the game isnt that **** game never looks awesome but i cant run it properly on my(older) PC while other, better looking games run just fine.This is a weird and sometimes the game is so demanding that is laggs like hell. I encountered many bugs along the way too.20 minutes prior to the review im writing right now i had a game with the **** AI broke completely, never moved.I had to play alone, died 30 times maybe because hey, i was alone against a complete team.I had other issues with bugs, the mostly the AI. The game is really unbalanced.Sometimes i think blizzard never tested the things they **** long ago the released Leoric.Kinda broken this is hero, now they made some changes with the latest **** hes still a bit overpowered.Youll see him in most pro-lineups for a good reason.Same with one of the newer **** example the map with the punishers.They rebalanced some things because if you were behind on that map it was nearly **** punishers wer too strong.After the patch i never played the map, so i dont know if they succesfully changed it now but again, who tested this **** In the end i think this is a mediocre game that many people play because they are not good enough for the other mobas.I dont mean that as an **** not made for this genre too but Heroes is simple enough for me so i dont **** its kinda shallow i think in many **** community is still very toxic despite the fact that it is very likely that youll play in quickmateched with a team that is not that great because like i said, they are not good enough for the other mobas.I recommend this game to that target audience or when you are total new in the genre.I think you can learn a lot by playing **** as a product i think its mediocre and a solid 6.
Hearthstone(from now on HS) is a **** can pay for many things like booster, adventures or simply for cosmetics.First of all i have an account where i buy 6 packs every month and one that is pure F2P.Because of that i can say HS is NOT pay to **** is pay to **** you start a pure F2P account you build ONE class first for laddergames and that works just **** can even watch Trump on Youtube right now, hes playing a F2P priest and climbs the ladder like a machine.While he is a pro he plays without **** problem is that most players are just terrible and need a perfect, premade decklist to **** course you have troubles when you are not capable of adapting with your cardpool but that is YOUR OWN **** F2P modell is really fair i **** can buy 3-6 packs per week depending on what quests you get or you can play arena. Lets look into the rest of the game: Sound:Everything here is ok.Some cards have nice sounds, most **** music is ok. Visuals:What do you expect here, its a TCG!The game look ok. Gameplay:I wont discuss the basic rules, the game is easy to learn and the mechanics(!!) are easy to master too.I think that appeals to a lot of people because games like YGO or Magic are MUCH MUCH MUCH more complicated and you need to know a lot of rules.Maybe the game is too simpel.A big problem is the current state of the **** people that design the cards must be complete **** some videos on YT for footage from the alpha or beta how broken some cards were back **** they fixed most of this **** but if you want to play competetivly you need an "unfair" deck.I talk about secret pala, face-hunter, grim patron warrior and so on.Youll encounter mostly agressive decks while you are most of the time screwed if you play a controldeck.This is a design-flaw in my **** should never get punished that hard if you play a slower **** miss turn 1?Too bad, most of the time its already GG in a meta where you need the perfect play most of the time. That aside Blizzard managed to push the RNG bull**** to next level.Cards like shredder for example.This is e-sports?When you lead BY A LOT and you shredder drops a doomsayer for example?Or the shredder drops an Darnassus aspirant and you lose mana because of that?In my opinion this is bad design.Blizzard is talking about **** sorry, i had never fun when i won or lost a game because of that bull****. Conclusion:Because of the bad design and not enough expansions(it took me just some weeks to get all the playable cards from the latest expansion on both my accounts) i cant say HS is a good **** an okay game with a very very fair F2P modell that is easy to **** can have a lot of fun but not just sometimes youll find yourself in a really salty spot because you lost to RNG bull**** or unfair decks/cards.Like i said gamedesign is not a strong point in the HS team.
I never enjoyed this **** many things are so repetetive and dull.Every day is the **** dungeons and mobs there are boring and **** game is cute at first but lacks too many **** just a timewaster with no reward and it is not really easy because you "have to pay of your fathers depth".That payment you have to do, its redicilous what amounts you have to pay in week **** the customers are stupid too.I had a child that was so pissed that i couldnt sell things for 100% base price.I dont buy things and sell them for less, stupid **** Conclusion:I dont recommend this **** bugfree, nice, but its a simpel game, no chance to overlook bugs in such an simpel game i thing.
I think the game is not that **** looks cute at first, the music is funny and nice but in the end the game is so simplistic that there is nearly no gameplay at **** build your guild, that basic, not much to do.Adventurerers join the guild, you cant do something with **** biggest designflaw is for me that the adventurerers will be resetted after every dungeon.What the hell?Oh course they die often if you strip your guys from EVERYTHING and let them walk into harder dungeon.This game is nothing more then a **** have to solve some kind of riddle how to get stronger in the **** get "stronger" with every **** too much is random stuff that can screw you **** may compare that game to "The darkest dungeon" but come on.Darkest dungeon screws you too thats the only simliarity. Conclusion:I thought there is more stretegy involved, instead there is shallow gameplay with cute things on the **** cute things will be not so cute after youve seen them for the 20th time.Thats not enough to receommend this game.There are many good games out there on sale, theyll give you more game for your dollar/euro.
Massive Chalice is about strategy and some management of your kingdom, not more, not **** game gives you a basic story, the rest plays out like Xcom:Enemy **** fighting is very simliar and as a person that hates the X-Com remake i certainly dont like the combat in Massive Chalice.Lets look into everything: Visuals:At first, the game might look **** artstyle is somewhat unique, or at least you will think that if you never played older games(on PS2 for example).While the artstyle is kinda unique today its not that unique if you compare it to Stellar Deus on the PS2 for example.From a technical standpoint the game looks bad.Weapons, armor and faces are not detailed, not **** a pricetag of 20€ you can get better looking **** visuals are not everything, right? Sound:The music and the voiceacting is **** chalice is kinda seperated into 2 persons.They speak to you or they will comment on some things, like the death of a fallen soldier or new enemys.I really like that part of the **** weapon-sounds are more or less non existent, i dont like that but many games have that problem. Gameplay:That is the part that disappointed me the most.When you start the game you think "oh, i can do so many **** and no!In theory you can do some things.Research for **** problem is, many things serve no real **** example:You can research a bow that can pierce through multiple enemys.That feature sounds cool but its useless because somehow that weapon doesnt fit into the **** bow is too weak and some enemys have abilitys that punish you if you do not enough damage per shot.There is one enemy that has the **** hit it once, it will boost its armor and you can hit it only for 1 damage this **** need strong weapons for that enemy to kill it with 1 shot or blow.Other enemys need to be taken out quickly, like the wrinkler.They let your soldiers age with every **** would i use a weak weapon on him??Thats just an example for poor balance, there are other things that makes no sense if you really think about from a mechanical point of view. There are other problems in the way you set up your **** fortress for example is where you breed new **** clases of the parents determine the class the kids will be at the age of 15 or **** my playthrough i got stuck with 3 classes which turned out to be overpowered because they can cloak, shoot and move a second time or they have a sneak attack that is insta death for nearly every enemy.Other classes **** compared to that(i played a second time).What i dont like about the way double fine handles the fortesssystem is that you give a fortress to 1 regent and if you appoint him/her the first time it locks in the family that can inherit that fortress.Because i lost some soldiers of that family in a tragic event i had problems to give the fortress to someone out of that **** not gamebraking but it is so much management for such a shallow game, it feels unnacessary.There are more things, but ill spare you more negative points. Conclusion:Massive Chalice seems like an interesting game at first.Unfortunatly the game is much like X-Com a very shallow expierence.Everything is basic, nothing more.Brilliant voiceacting cant save shallow gameplay in a not so good looking game.Plus, i had crashes in every **** to save a lot because of that.I hear many of you say "its just 20€" but what i see from that game is not enough to justify 20€.Think about what you can get for that kind of **** i look on steam they got Fallout Las Vegas Ultimate Edition for the same price and i bet i can find some older games in the same genre with more depth, better looking for the same price or **** sorry, that game is not great, not good, its mediocre at **** you wait for a sale, lets say 7-10€ its okay.Dont buy it right now.
This game is super-fun!!!!Its a little masterpiece with a more or less unique **** play the cast of a TV show and boy the "plot" is so **** many damn good **** game is not a visual masterpiece, yes, but i think that might be the reason why the rest of the game is so **** sound is **** main theme in the menu alone is a blast!Everything including the cheesy visuals blend together into one, great artstyle.Unfortunatly the gameplay is not very **** have some basic moves and basic management, nothing fancy.Some skills will be added over time but in the end its really simplistic.Thats the only reason why i cant rate that game **** course, its about the style, the jokes, the funny plot but its not PERFECT. I recommend this game to all who love that kind of **** a bit like Deadpool.Deadpool was about the jokes, not the genereic plot, the weak **** about **** you search for fun(and understand the references!!!), youll find it **** you search for good voiceacting, epic story and visuals search the shelves for AAA **** my taste the game is BY FAR the game that produced the most fun for me in 2015!My last years fav game was This war of mine, i rated it 8(my highest rate ever).Chroma Squad is for me on the same level with simliar **** rate it with an 8!Buy it if you like that kind of game!!!
This is a short review for the gold **** gold version contains some mods and all patches when you buy it, so my review might not apply to the base game! There is nothing special to say, you know the genre, you know how the game works.This game is a remake of the original X-Com and stays close to the course material.I know the game had issues when they released it, i had no bugs at all!THe gameplay is old-school, keep that in mind! Visuals:The game is not a beauty, but it fullfills it purpose. Sound:Some good backroundmusic, weaponsounds are ok, nothing special here. Gameplay:Like i said, very **** takes X-Com and adds some features, most of them work very well.A good example is the resistance type that armor and enemys have.Some are immune to fire or poison, others are weak to that damagetype and so on.That adds some tactical depth i think. Conclusion:I had so much fun with the game.Much more fun when i compare it to the new x-com or **** reason is that this game takes the best parts and adds something new, something that i missed in **** artstyle is nice for my taste.Without the bugs this game comes close to the first X-Com and maybe is better in some **** some things are clunky, because of that its only a 7 which is much higher than my score for Xenonauts ;)
Oh boy i was soooo excited about that game when i first heard about **** more i saw, the less excited i **** now that i played that game i think i was right.I will not write a in-depth review cause that game isnt wort the ****?Its out on IOS and when you see and play the game you know why it should only be available to mobile devices.This game is really simple.Fighting is simple, science is **** cant research like you did in Masters of Orion for example.I never got excited because i invented something cause there is nothing to invent in the first place.Every faction plays the same, even the research is the **** effort put into it, lazy as **** missions get boring really quickly.There are some different type of missions but they will pop up too often.After the 8th spacestation that is damaged or the 12th defenseplattform that goes rogue it gets dumb. In the end that game is clearly made für mobile devices.Right now they charge you with around 15€.Many people will tell you 15€ is not much and its **** ITS NOT!There are so many games out there for less money that are better.Hell, pick up Masters of Orion, better battles, much more tactic needed and a real economy behind **** you want just the fighting, buy **** buy other games, but not this ripoff that is just portet so that they can grab your cash because there is the name Sid Meier on it.Without the name Sid Meier no one would ever give a **** about this boring **** below average for me, deinstalled it after some hours.
Breach and clear is a squad-based tactical game."Tactical" is btw a relativ term.I dont think that there is much tactic in this **** can buy Breach and Clear on an IOS device too and i think thats where it belongs.Righ now you have to pay 14,99€ which far too **** gameplay is simplistic and so unlock the better things you need some **** even if you unlock the things you need money to buy it.Thats just stupid, you are an anti terror unit or something.Lets look into the details: Sound:The music is very **** the menu the music is slow and really nice, during missions the music is more intense.THats **** weaponsounds are ok for the most part.I think every weapon sounds the same, too bad. Visuals:The visuals are good enough for a game that costs around **** menu looks nice and clean, i like the **** units look nice in the loadoutscreen, but not in the game.Thats a shame. Gameplay:The gameplay is a mixed bag.There are some issues with the equipment for **** really hard compare the weapons for example.There is no screen that tells you how good you weapon is compared to the weapon you have available.Makes it harder to **** can change your armor and its really stressing when you have to go back and forth to look for your stats.WHat i dont like too is that many weapons you can unlock are useless.They cost money and they are sometimes not better, or not much **** would i buy a new rifle with 5 more damage for 500 dollar when i can just buy 2 attachments for my old one for the same price and that results in a far better weapon because the attachments boost more than 1 **** the same time you unlock the weapons too fast if you are good.That makes it even less attractive to change you weapon cause after 2 missions youll unlock a new **** mid tier the weapon starts to get expensive, you need to think about buying a new one or saving the **** developer could have made some improvements here.Less weapons but more different **** example you could unlock 3 rifles at the same time with different **** with high damage, one that is very silent and so on.Instead most of the weapon are so simliar that you will find no need to change something.Some of the weapons are poorly **** light machinegun for **** damageoutput per shot is really low.With some bad equipmentchanges your high caliber machinegun will do 1 point of damage, which makes that soldier useless.Something like that should NEVER EVER happened.A weapon will NEVER to nearly no damage just because you strap a silencer on it or you change the gassystemIts like you change you machinegun do a airsoft rifle.Stupid as **** really great.Another problem is the mapdesign.Most of the early maps are so simpel that there is no challenge.This gets boring and repetetive really **** that describes the hole game:Simpel and repetetive cause there is not much to do.Doorkickers is very simliar and right now in early **** that game you have more variance, different classes that play different without the use of active skills.That game is better, costs about the same. Conclusion:On PC that game is not really **** can have some fun with it when you are a fan of the **** after some hours the game is too simpel.There is not much depth in the gameplay to keep me entertaint.Around 15€ might be ok for fans of the genre, for other people its too much.Maybe you should take a look at Doorkickers instead, more depth in the gameplay in my opinion for your money.Breach and clear is an okay game with some flaws.I encountered no bugs so far, for that i give that game a mediocre 5 out of 10!
Blackguards 2, what can i say?Its a mixed back.There are some changes in comparison to its predesessor.They removed most of the annoying stuff.Luck is for example not a big factor because the dicerolling is **** me thats **** there are enough problems, lets get into detail: Visuals:Ok to **** not a Far Cry but if it is enough to not look bad.When it comes to the visuals its the same game as Blackguards 1.Thats ok but some improvements would have been nice.Youve seen nearly everything already in the first game and i dont like **** spells look ok, some even **** characters look ok, not good.Nothing stands out, nothing **** game when it comes to the visuals. Sound:Mixed back.I dont like the music that much, its realy dull.I know that is a personal preference but its my review ;) The voiceacting is most of the time good to great.Especially Cassia the main protagonist is realy well **** combt sounds are not realy **** example when an archer shoots at you, you parry it with a shield that doesnt sound.....powerfull.A shame, but its ok. Gameplay:Mixed bag **** have some new features and some of these features are not well **** silent legion for example.They fight for you in some battles and at first they are not that strong but after some time they become far too **** assasin for example dishes out damage like nothing, the battlemage casts powerfull spells in a **** maincharacters are not that powerfull and the engine is not made for this kind of **** can see that in the defense **** AI is stupid on its own and they attack really dull, pathfinding is not really a strong point for the AI too.Because of that the defense battles become annoying really quick and they are far too easy.Most of the gameplay is simliar to Blackguards **** you like the first game, youll like the second too i think. Technical issues:I had problems on some **** minions get stuck and the round will not revolve correctly.That ends in a situation where i have to restart the map.That happens only on the maps with "the creators".I dont know what the problem is or why that happens.Other problem i had on one map with the last creator:There are insectoid archers on the roofes.When i enter the doof to the roof the insectoid will move some hexes and my character cant move out of the door.Again, i had to restart.Happend too often, that is a malus for the endscore.I had bugs in the **** can enrage Naurim or you can do the opposite.I tried to calm him, the game bugged out on me and gave him the wrong bonus.That is a no go since i dont know if that influences the story. Conclusion:Blackguards 2 is an okayisch game with technical **** story is not that **** first game got a better story and some of the characters are not that interesting in the second game.Naurim is not the naurim i liked for example, hes not even funny anymore.Blackguards 2 is a solid 5 or 6, but because of the bugs i had its a 4 in the **** you like Blackguards 1, buy the second game **** dont think that they made big **** there are any they are small.
I dont know, i had fun with the game, for a **** longer the game was running the more bugs i had and the more the broken mechanics made me **** detail: -Bugs:Encountered many bugs with the newest patch.Skills that arent working at all or they work just wrong.Some of the mechanics seems broken too and this influenced my experience!Minus -2 for that in the end! -Visuals:Ugly as hell, sorry. -Sound:Some of the worst sounds if ever heard.A character is injured?The sound they play to "simulate" that is hilarious.First i thought a porn is running somewhere.Turn out this is to "simulate" the heavy breathing caused by the ****??Music is not good too. Gameplay:Bare minimum.Some active skills, some passive ones and some perks.Nothing fancy, its ok to keep you going.Problem is, some of them will not work or will not work how they should be!Movement is a pain, no real sneaking. Conclusion:While the things i said sounds all terrible i had great 4 days with the game.Unitl i reached a point where i die for no reason!!!Just like that, someone stabbed me to death in the shelter without a major incident and many of the residents liked **** warning, nothing.Food for weeks, gas for weeks, everything was fine.Suddenly Davis says "people are dying because of you".What?Not ONE in the game is dead!I think something in the mechanics isnt working like it should but im really pissed at this game. I dragged myself through this awfull game because of the **** story is great, there is everything.Tension, passion, you like and/or hate the people you **** when bugs like that happen and you waste your time its the worst. The game is for me without the bugs a solid 5 bwcause i had fun despite the poor sound and the poor graphik.With the sheer amount of bugs(quests that wont end properly for example) its just a 3, im sorry. This game had potential.
I dont understand why this game gets so much praise from everyone.I think it is because of the fact that RTS as a genre is pretty much dead.Youll get 1-2 maybe 3 good games a year if you ignore Blizzards SC **** my review i will only talk about the SP part because im not interested in MP and if im interested in a game then it have to be better than "Grey Goo". -Visuals:Mixed bag i **** CGIs are amazing!!!They are on par with Blizzards CGIs, maybe better.During the mission briefing the aliens look so damn real, great **** in-game visuals are ok, not **** you think this is great think about what is possible in the modern time of PC gaming.This looks great to many people because like i said:RTS is pretty much dead and even if there is a good game it will not look like a AAA **** for example looks good because of the artstyle, the engine itself is out of date if you consider what is **** here is my problem with grey goo:I dont like the art style.I dont like how the units look in game, i dont like how the maps look.Thats personal preference of **** UI is ok, after some minutes youll find everything quickly. -Sound:Music?Is there music?If so i missed it.From that perspective not really great.Think about **** know many themes from the C+C today if you plyayed some games from the **** grey goo i didnt even remeber now.Voiceacting is ok.I watched some videos on YT with the english voiceover, its **** german voiceover is not that great(i played with german voiceover).I miss sounds from the enviroment that **** me into the world of Grey **** really great work, im sorry. -Gameplay:As many here stated Grey Goo trys to return to the roots of the RTS genre.Basebuilding is simliar to C+C back **** they limit it with the way the factions build the buildings.I dont like **** Beta for example build some kind of hubs and you need to dock smaller buildings on the hubs, much like the Terrans in SC do it with some buildings.There are some balanceissus i think with defenseve **** Units die very quickly and you need to build things constantly.This is like old school RTS, C+C **** AI trys to rush you.I didnt liked it back in the times and i certanily didnt like it **** unreative and boring as hell.I have to fight my way through a boring map with some **** secondary objectives that gives me a very slight advantage, but no real story or drama.THats a problem for me in the game, i dont care about **** units die too quckly, there is no XP progression or something that keeps the gameplay fresh and **** comes down to "pump out units, secure you base, move, and do the same again".This is basicly Command and Conquer with a modern **** sorry, we are in 2015!!!I want more then that!Unit progression maybe or something i can do between missions.Chosse different paths in a missiontree that have consequences.Nothing of that is in the game.There are not many units in the game and nothing fancy too i think.When i say that i think about chronotanks from C+C or units that warp around the map like some SC units. Conclusion:Like i said, i dont understand why the game gets so much thumps **** ok if you want that old school gameplay, if not dont buy this game.I had no technical issues, which is good, maybe the loadingtimes are too long, thats **** me that game is a solid 5 because of that which makes it an "okayisch" game.I would recommend this so C+C but not to gamers that like micro management heavy games or games with a lot of depth.
I saw the "WTF:Warhammer Quest" from totalbiscuit and thought "meh, intersting look, try **** remarks are 100% accurate!I wont write a detailed review cause the game is not that great.I think that game is similiar to the tabletop experience but with too many **** cant see the dice rolls, too much is **** much like space hulk(which bored the crap out of me).Random encounters for **** have they thought?You walk through a dungeon, suddenly spider appear from **** go!Besides that, the game is FAAAAAAR TOO EXPENSIVE if you want the full **** start with 4 heroes.They are **** heroes you can buy cost 2,99 i think(or 1,99?Doesnt matter, too **** 1 hero!!!!The game is by far too simplistic.Maybe it would be fun for 4,99€ if you get the full the game.That would be **** could go, take a **** and play 1-2 **** with that pricelabel?There are better things out there.Even Space Hulk:Ascension is better.Simliar game and they learned from their experience with privious installments of the Space Hulk franchise. Bottom line:DONT BUY WARHAMMER QUEST!!
This game lookes promissing at first, but after a short time im bored.Some nice ideas!The game is influenced from many other, older **** can upgrade your ship, customize your troops and mechs, there are several factions and so on.Nothing of this can save the clunky mechanics.Dont by this game!The RTS part is painfull to watch and so slow, it hurts.Even you scout-units that probally should be fast and agile are **** mapdesign is bad when you consider the features in the **** can take cover, get bonus to def.This is contrdicted my the fact that its hard to take **** units wander arround, painfully slow and you cant take cover from the side you **** game tells you where you can take **** example:You storm a up a ramp, the enemy is in **** need to fight your way up th ramp without cover, thats **** when you reach the cover, you cant use it from your side!!!Only from the other side, where the enemy was.What the heck?This is **** in the first mission the game tells you that you can use **** the first map, the mapdesign is so dumb that you cant use features such as crossfire because the map is designed to give the AI an adavantag.There are chokepoints everywhere.Another problem is the unit selction.Example:Second mission, you get no usefull infos in the **** briefing tell you to escort **** i thought i should bring along some heavy troopers because my other troops die too quickly.Turns out, you dont know where the civilists will go and you dont know where the enemys will ****, because of the fact that EVERY unit is so slow, you need to restart this mission when you know how to approach it(because you can take 4 units with you, which is not enough inthis mission i think). This game is bad, im sorry.Sound is bad, visuals are bad too.Everything looks bad and on my PC even the intro is lagging.What the hell?Btw, if you make a game where take you units through the entire campaign you should do everything in your power to make sure all the features are working properly.Like the cover system!And the units die far too quick i think.Plus, i was not be able to heal my units.I could order reinforcements, but the rest of the unit remains in its ****?Dont know, dont care, dont my this game!Buy Ground Control instead, its much better!!!
I rarely give a better score than 7 because most new games annoy the **** out of me!Said that, "This war of mine" is the most entertaining game in 2014 for me.Like any games here and there are flaws, but thats nitpicking.Lets look into it: Visuals:Not much to **** me personally the artdesign is just great.Everything blends into one unique style.This is not a bad looking game i **** dark with some spots of colour here and **** mood of the game is really well presented and you feel and see when something changes.Youll see snow falling or rain for example your characters react to the situation **** example you can see when they are really tired or sometimes youll see them reading a book and stuff.Great!Some of the backrounds are really great! Sound:Pretty nice!Not that much but i dont think thats because the developer is **** because it suits the situation.When there is music its always suitable and really nice.Nothing disturbs you from what is happening and the heavy things you are gonna have to do to survive. Gameplay:The gameplay is simplistic and maybe you can bring up some critic!First of all, the movement is **** sneak with a single click or run with a double click.Running makes more noises, attracts bandits and stuff.Nicely done.What is really nice is the fact you can choose different paths of **** example you could shoot your way through a bunch of bad guys, maybe sneak around them on various paths or you use stealth to kill them off one by one.Great!!!Unfortunately the close combat is a bit of a pain in the **** need to click on a icon and with the weaker weapons the enemy will be pushed around instead of being killed instantly.That makes is hard to hit this button **** my first playthrough i lost a character this way, simple missclick.Besides that there are some levels with nice **** example a map with a siper in the **** cant eliminate him as far as is know so you have to move from cover to cover and time your runnings to his (hopefully)missshots.Good ideas. I have some complaints about certain tools.Some are overpowered, others are **** 2 playthroughs i NEVER used a shovel really long.I tried the shovel, you safe time but for the materials you lose you could have build something **** axe on the other hand is mighty as thors hammer!! You build the axe and you kill many opponents instantly while you can hack things to pieces and salvage wood and materials.I never run out of things to burn for the oven because of that.Another thing that i think should be rebalanced is the amount of things you need to upgrade you workstations.Sometimes its so expensive that the **** you can build after the upgrade will be less valuable than you think because you spend so much **** on the upgrade **** my playthroughs i never run out on things in the longterm.Every now and then youll find stuff that is useless for you, you can trade it in.Sometimes this is the better **** far as i know many things are random when you start the game.Problem is, on my first playthrough i encountered some events in a quick succession and my characters were really sad in the early stages.There were kids that want medicine(i had none) and a beggar that wanted food(had non either).Both events had a really drastic impact on my **** the second playthrough i was lucky, nearly nothing **** there is a bit of luck involed with these **** good for replayability but if you just want to play 1 or 2 times this can be frustraiting. Final verdict:Great game!!!The best i played in 2014 so **** things i mentioned are more or less nitpicking, they dont have a great amount of impact on the fun youll ****, and maybe thats the point, youll have no fun at all!!!!This game is not really about **** about surviving and harsh decisions.Will you rob an elderly couple and let them starve to death afterwards?Think about the possible consequences.Will i help the woman that is about to get **** by a military?Think about the possibe backlash.I like that, 8/10 because of the minor things i didnt like.
In Angry Joes words:"They **** it **** me explain why i think with FM2015 this series is dead: First of all, i have technical issues.While modern FPS or RTS run just fine this piece of **** slows down every now and **** problem in the 3D match, but in every **** example i want to switch between players, the screen freezes for a short time.This is NOT a problem with my setup, like i said, other games run just **** sure its a bug, but i dont care, its there and its not really fun when you need 1 minute for small things what would normally take 20 **** that ill substract 1 point. Lets look into the "new" features: New interface:This interface is not new, its **** did they changed it anyway?Was one of my main critic points for the **** still, the interface is **** need to search hours for things in this poorly designed wannabe interface.Look, the game is basically the same im terms of the features **** **** its so hard to find your way.Poor job! TRaining:Wow, its gettin worse every year.I know **** about what is ****?There is no real indicator when your training is too **** course, youll see it when hundreds of injurys happen but thats a bit late, right?In my savegame i tried to use the happiness of my players as indicator,You can find that in the training section.Arround 90% of my squad is happy, rest content.Results after 2 months of preseason and training:NEARLY 20 INJURED PLAYERS!!!WTF??!!??Im playing the series since FM2008, injurys where always a **** i could tweak my training with a slider.A tried my settings for 6 months or so, less injurys, you knew that was the "sweet **** you dont have a slider, just basic categories like "****?Where is the satisfaction that this is MY training?Many other things are gone **** more different **** and so on.Dumbed down, no fun, Matchengine and tactics:Oh boy, this is what destroys this game completely.Whatever this game is about, its not **** developer tied everything on the pitch to "roles".While in previous games this was something like a basic suggestion you could always tweak this is **** want a player to play in a specific role and SI things "in this role a players will always dribble" you cant cancel ****??Im the coach, right?So you can look through aaaaaallll the roles in hope you find that combination that you want is **** me, it was there, after 30 minutes of searching, great.Wastin my time, no **** matchengine is a joke **** can read other reviews, i wont repeat what they write here, its true.What they are missing in my opinion is that AI sometimes will not react at all or the AI will choose the wrong player for the action!!!Some examples:My team got a penalty **** kicker shoots, hits the woodwork, the ball rolls in slowmo to his **** feed.What happened?He forgot to react!!!!While he was just standin there with no reaction the defenders where able to clear the ball.Other example:3 defensive players, a long ball from the opposition, 2 of my players just standing there and the third, the slowest player in the team with the most distance to cover from his position had to make the run.Reasult:A goal for the opposition, first shot, **** fun at all!!Sometimes the players will ignore you orders, in my case that broke my gameplan **** game is slow paced and relies on retain possesion of the **** GK is ordered to distribute short balls to the **** the 20 games i played he kicked most of the ball in the other half.Many balls lost that way, no fun.This engine is broken! Visuals:Im sorry, i know there are so many fans that say "its not about visuals in a manager".Youre wrong, its nearly 2015 and this piece of **** looks worse then the fifal manager 5 years **** good presentation, no real, close-up celebration of goals, no visual reaction when a player is fouled. Something in general:This series is **** is a lazy company because they know that there is no competition.There is no progress in the series since 2012, more steps backwards.Please stop to buy this **** and please stop to blame everybody with legit critic he knows nothing about the **** its so hard to learn FM than the developers done a terrible job in the first place. Final verdict:Better than 2013 or 2014 but still a bad game.FM2012 is still the best experience and thats what makes me sad!I would give this game a 4, but like i said, technical issues, -1 point.Dont buy it, even on a discount, its not worth your money.I hope they close this developer soon.
One of these games where it is hard to decide how to approach the review.This game is more or less low priced, there is no chance to compete with AAA games when it comes to the **** here begins my problem!The visuals are great!Not for a low priced game, its more than just **** lets get into detail: Visuals:Like i said, ok to **** complaints here, the art design is ok **** short cutscenes are ok, not well made but **** colores are bright, depends on you if this is a pro or a con.Youll always recognize your units.Between the missions the visuals are not that **** can walk around on your ship, that part looks crappy and far too **** bad, but for the price its still ok. Sound:The voiceacting is ok.Some actors are better, seen **** course, the units say something when you click on them.These short voiceovers **** fighters for example.Sometimes i cant understand them.Could be better, but its a minor **** music is **** the menu its realy great, in missions its not that good but that might be my taste. Gameplay:This is the area where if thought i would find **** in the end, this is the weakest part in the ****?Die Pathfinding is horrible, the AI too.Most of the missions are really boring.Youll have to fight off waves of enemys in a tower defense section for example.Good idea but poorly ****, as the command, got **** can heal your units for example.Problem is, the units move so fast and hover over the field that youll miss with many skills.This is espacially problematic with airunits.Sometimes youll miss the spot of the unit you want to **** skill will heal the wrong **** some missions the skills are important.Youll need to fill up the skill-o-meter to use the skills in battle.Youll need to invest more time in some missions than you need to because of **** a great design decision. Conclusion:Is this game any good?YES IT IS!Right now its on sale for 7,49€. thats a bargain if you love old school RTS **** i think for me the game is just interesting because of the **** missions itself are boring, C+C **** enough to keep me **** you love the old C+C games you can add 2-3 **** me its a solid 5 because of the cons ive mentioned.
Im angry!!!This game is not just unpolished, its not ready to be published.Many minor bugs, many major bugs and some game-stopping-bugs are still present.Even the tutorial is bugged for some players(use google), they cant advance in the cmpaign beyond the tutorial.Some(like me) are stuck in the second mission.Great work!! Visuals:The game looks **** design of the ships is kinda refreshing.Thats the strongpoint of the game i think. Sound:The voiceacting is **** developer claims this monotone, emotioneless talking in the game is **** this is true, i dont know about that decision.While this is ok between the mission and in the briefing, its not right in the mission.When you lose something important and nobody seems to care its not that engaging.What i miss are great weaponsounds and a good music.Everything is average or slightly below. Gameplay:A real shame is that there is not much tactical depth in the **** click something, it explodes, or not.There is a system in the game that needs you to match up your units strengths with the enemys ships.Bomber vs. larger ships and so on.Thats all.Some units got one or more abilitys, but all in all thats not realy deep when it comes to tactic.Between missions you can upgrade your units, but here too, its too shallow.+1 armor for my fighters, who cares about that?They die in an instant anyway. Conclusion:Maybe that game is better later in the **** i cant play the game thx to a bug in mission 2(and im not the only ****, i can only review what ive seen up to that **** what ive seen is visually beautiful, but thats just the outer shell.There is not much inside i think.I will not update my review when they decide to fix the game cause ill be busy with other games i **** bad, you lost a customer for good.I will buy no products from this company again.
This game is bad!!!Ive played the series since FM08, so i know how this game SHOULD work!Ive played FM2012 for years now and bought FM2013 and 2014 when they come out.FM2013 was so bad back than, i didnt played enough back than to review this **** .No FM2012 got some bugs cause it runs since it came **** fought i give DM2013 a retry with the newest patch and 2014 isnt an option cause it **** **** 2012 was the best football related manager ever created in my **** matchengine was a bit flawed here and there but all in all you could play with your own strategy and only the players you got are the limiting **** FM2013 the matchengine or the AI are the limiting **** players are unable to pass the ball around properly.Even the best players on this planet will screw up constantly.There are some improvements to 2012, **** player can shield and stop the ball **** 2012 many ball where just cleared with a longshot to the center or your defenders produced throw-ins for you opponent.This is mostly gone.Instead SI screwed up EVERYTHING **** passing is bad as i stated **** crosses are soooo bad, the fly mostly out of the **** too much in the match is just random.There is no steady stream of passing, nearly no great **** boils down to overpowered winger and strangely goalkeepers.Sometimes a no-name GK will save EVERYTHING, even the hardest and best placed **** suddenly, he screws up when one of the bad crosses hits its **** your defenders are too passive when they play against a dribbler.Dribbler, they were too strong in 2014, now i see where this comes **** played a halfe season in england and most of my goals where scorred by my wingers with **** most goals were not earned.I lost my best games 4:0 and won my worst games with 3 goals.This is random, sorry.Like i said, im not new to the series, im no **** won countless titles in every FM since **** here?It never feels **** win undeserved, this **** lose undeserved, that **** is part of real football, no question, but not like this and not constantly.Dont buy this game.Dont buy FM2014, its even **** pls, dont preorder **** says **** you" to the consume since 2 **** company.
Got to admit, when i startet i thought "meh, this game will ****, this game is fun!But lets get into detail: Visuals:This game is a mixed bag when it comes to **** overall quality is not that great when you look at the entire **** some levels look really great in terms of the art **** first 2 levels stands out in this regard.There is great lighning, many candles, very **** too bad the rest of the game is so dark cause without this great art design the engine on itself is really bad.Textures are ok at best.Looks a bit outdated, but its still **** weapons looks ok too, the enemys look not so **** its possible that this is because they were designed that **** in all:Solid and it should run on every system out there! Sound:That is for me the great part.While the music is ok to good, the voiceacting is really **** 2 main characters travel together and they will argue and/or mock each other all the time.Really funny.Sometimes its like Deadpool.Writing is great too, every joke will hit you like a gunshot.There are not that many other characters in the game, but all of them are good.Weaponsounds are ok, the rocketluncher could sound more powerful. Gameplay:Solid gunplay!Every weapon is useable, even the pistol youll get first.Every weapon can be upgraded, really nice.Some of these upgrades may be too strong, but thats not an issue in a game like this i think.There is a system in place thats rewards you with stars(or shurikens)for fights.I havent figured out if you get a high ranking for fast kills or when you deversify your kills.Find out for **** its fun, youll get bonus karma that way.Karma is one of three ressources in the game you can use to upgrade you skills or **** can use a sword and learn new techniques for it for **** can learn ways to heal or protect yourselfe or passiv things like finding more money and so **** progression is steady and enjoyable. All in all this game is **** last 10 games ive played bored me so im glad this piece of joy came around the **** you can ignore the visuals youll get a game that entertains you for days with a solid gameplay and funny jokes.
Sooooo, Wasteland 2 is out!Nice!Or not?Let me explain why my score for Wasteland **** go into my technical troubles first, than i review the game itself. Technical trouble:I got an old PC.Thats not a problem, most games run just fine(im talking about assasins creed black flag and such **** glad when a game like WL2 comes around cause it suits my PC better.Thats what i thought.I had issues in the EA-version of the game with the "Write to location 00000000 caused an access violation" **** you got a 32 bit system youll probally know about **** short, the game uses up too much ressources while doing **** some, even open the questlog will cause a **** me, it cashes when im entering the railroads nomads camp.Gamestopping i think.There is a workarround for some people but that shouldnt be necessary and its not always working.Sorry, the game looks like crap, sounds like crap and even Skyrim runs just fine on my **** WL2 got issues?Bad optimization, sorry **** that, ill substract 2 points from my score. Ok, into detail: Visuals:The game looks like crap, in every setting.While this is ok for some things, thats just to much.Everything looks like you are standing in a puddle of mud.Charactermodels are pretty bad.Visual effects?Nonexsistent!Even explosives are not **** can say its an indiegame or its costs just XX, i dont care.Even much older games look better and the games artdesign is not that great.Look at Fallout 1 or **** can play it today, it looks oks cause it aged well.Wasteland 2 looks not just outdated. Sound:There is not much voiceacting, but when there is a voiceover its is great!!!Good quality, great cast. The music is ok, it fits the **** there is not much variety.Weaponsounds are **** FAMAs for example sounds better than most weapons, why? Gameplay:There are some flaws in the general **** example when you talk to someone and you want or have to use one of the speechskills(like kissass).Youll have to select the character for this action.While on its own this isnt so tragic, there are many little things like that and they sum up over the **** some point i was really annoyed(like the regular callin for promotion aka leveling up).What the developer have done well is the deversity of skills you can use.Often, there is more than one way.I like **** combat is a problem i **** cant do that much, even taking cover is ruined by the fact that many enemy groups are made up of a mix of enemytypes.They will try to storm you position like hell(and will get kiled far too easy).That ruins the only real option you got, take ****, youll often just standing arround and shoot, especially when you fight **** 2014 thats not enough, **** there is another problem with the random **** groups youll encounter are badly scaled.There are small groups of 3 enemys with 15 HP or less that are too weak for you, even when you **** than there are overpowered(when syou start they are really overpowered) groups with 80-145 HP and good armor, in the starting area.Thats badly designed, sorry. All in all this game is no **** still got bugs, many bugs.Gamestoppingbugs.Search on google, youll see.After such an extensive EA-phase thats a no go!!!A solid 7 if you got a 64-bit OS and enough **** you got a 32-bit OS its pure luck if the game runs like it **** got a 32-bit OS and troubles, for me the game is a 5 at best.
Ive tried this **** story and many ideas are **** problem is how these ideas are **** example the armor **** find an armor, youve to bring it to the right person and this armor is reworked so it fits you.Interesting idea but in the end, its another way to a merchant oder blacksmith for no gaines.Youll get the armor, the stats remain the same, no option for you to influence the process.Another thing is the help the game offers you in the form of a **** can summon and follow it to your next **** there are flaws in **** flaw is, that the raven flys to you next objective on a direct route.Many times i couldnt follow the raven because there was no way(at the time) to use this street or gate.A gate for example opens up later in the game.Until the gate is opnened the raven will always fly through the gate and you cant follow him.Useless.Another problem is the raven flys sometimes through objects.Youll lose sight of him, **** too.A major complain from me is the general pace of the game.EVERYTHING is so slow.Even the fighting feels unnatural slow.Many skills need sooooo much time before they are executed.This makes many skills useless.A really nice idea is th shodow **** activate this skill and you change into a world were you can see the dead, talk to them(if youve learned the right skills) and take things from **** this mode you can see hidden doors. You can use them to find treasures or hidden **** problem is the cooldown of the skill.Here too, its sooooooo **** in all there is too much time in the game were nothing **** run 80 times through empty floors.This is bad today, this was bad in 2008, sorry.Visuals are ok, you can play this game today if you dont mind the **** voiceacting is not that great.Solid game i think that i uninstalled because of the time were nothing **** not interested in these things.
Sorry folks, this game **** that gives this **** game a 10 is lying and/or stupid.While you can enjoy a game you have to be honest when you review something and consider what games are out there right now.A 10 is the genres best, it sets a new standard.A 10 is a game that does everything right and adds something new of its own.Risen 3 is NOT a 10!Risen 3 is using MANY assets from Risen 2!Thats cheap and lazy and they still charge you around 50€!!!Its basicly the same game without some minor "features" of Risen 2 like the dirty tricks(the kick or the flying **** you like Risen 2, Risen 3 is ok for **** lets get into detail: Visuals:Strangely, some areas look ok to good, others outright **** water looks good, everything else not.Rocks for example look really terrible.Sometimes they blend so bad in with the backround that everything "melts" together.Hurts the eyes, really!There is an issue with the settings for the **** you reduce it to a certain level youll have little squares all over the **** annoying.What is good, the games will run on every machine out there.I heard some complains about the performance on some systems, got no problems myself though. Sound:This is really **** a german game and the german voiceover is sooooooo **** english too, no **** cast for the voices was not very motivated, you can hear that.Maybe because the dialogues are so cheap and bad **** music, i dont know, the best youll ever hear in the game will be the theme in the **** enviromental sounds **** there i think.There is a jungle, it doesnt sound like a jungle.There is a isle with a vulcano and a stream of lava in the middle of the isle, even there its quiet and suddenly some noises pop in when you come **** cheap, sorry. Gameplay:Storytelling was never a strong point of PB-Games.That was interesting back when Gothic 1 was freshly **** its **** evolution in that **** story is boring at **** cheap dialogues really heard here **** not engaging, no NPC is **** for the story and the world.I couldnt care less about this world.Here, games like Mass Effect set a standard i think in terms of dialogues and interesting ****, the story is bad?How about the strong point of PB Games?Exploration!Yeah this is kinda gone as a **** game is cut into pieces with the **** have some isles and not a complete **** not that much to **** you explore, you find SOMETHING, but that something is not really of importance.Youll find some quests out in the wild, ok but they are not really **** quests are a problem of their own.Boring at best.They feel like MMO quests.Fetch and bring, kill 10 monsters.Cheap, lazy.What really pisses me of is the combat system.Some claimed it is **** and no!Look some reviews, like angry **** **** at **** the first hours you need to duck and roll.Than its really an easy game, youll look through the enemy movement after minutes and know when they attack.I NEVER died in the game because of a fight.There are some imbalances in the system.Like the daggers, they are too strong.Better than magic i think(at least better than the demonhunter magic). All in all, this game is lazy.50€ is too much.Where the production time went into?Not the story, not the quests, not the combat.Nothing is new, nothing is **** game is a solid 5/10 but there is the issue with the laziness and the DLC problem.They cut out content and reuse many things from Risen 2.This is a no go!!!For that, its just a 3/10!!!!
First:The game is repetetive, **** visuals are ok, but not great.Sound is ok.I like the backroundmusic, but there is just 1 **** gameplay is simpel.Youve got 2 skills(3 with **** can pimp these skills with stimpacks, i think 5 stimpacks per character(after the 5. a message pops up that warns you about using more stims).Every character caries 1 weapon and 1 **** characters have up to 2 **** example one is very got with the assault rifle, others got a special shot or can heal more thanks to a **** not much diversity, but its **** story is interesting enough if you talk to everyone in you **** enjoyed the game, but the 12,99€ right know?Thats too expensive for that amount of gameplay.Wait for a discount.
Ive played some hours into the game and than.....deinstalled it!Why?Visuals are ok but its not my style.Same for the **** music repeats itself very quickly and sometimes it will not suit the situation.Than i encountert a massive problem with the loading/saving **** TAKES FOREVER TO SAVE A THE DAMN GAME!!!!And i need to save a lot because it crashes **** its not really an easy game.There are many enemys that can kill you very easy when they die.There are some walking living bombs for example.I lacked the skill to put out the fire on the fuse, they blow up on dying, end of story.While this may be funny and challenging it pisses me off when a game needs longer to save than other games to load an entire level.What do we have up to that point:Crashes, slow **** **** interface is clumsy too.Like some reviewers stated you need to click right onto the enemy, otherwise youll walk instead of **** enemys are animated, so the hitboxed for the clicking move around a ****, cause the battles are **** this is a con for me, they are challenging because the game dictates you what you have to **** encounterd many enemys that needs a specific strategy.Like those bombs.Youll have to use water to put out their **** problem with this is when you dont have the right spell available the fight is not winable or so hard that there is no fun in it.This might be fun for some people but not for me.That counts for the quest markers too.There arent any.While its ok to give you the option to turn them off it **** if they are not there when you dont have the **** time is limited and i cant search for every **** piece of intel.Besides that the game got some new **** have 2 characters, they can argue.Good **** how this plays out is stupid.Stone-paper-scissors.Seriously?That is too random.Another idea is to manipulate the **** example you can save a burning ship with a rain-making-spell.Thats quite an **** all in all with the crashes and the savetime, sorry, this isnt a good game.After some hours ive to uninstall it because i dont have the time for that **** story wasnt that engaging up to that point where i uninstalled **** i think the game is doing a fairly poor job job by NOT telling you where you can **** left the first city, the first enemy was deadly.Death after 1 hit.Sorry, that **** too.Everyone that claims this is a masterpiece is a backer, im sure.I dont know what the magazines are testing, its not this game.
I will not write a long review, ill keep it short.This game can easily be described as generic and lazy!Visuals are ok, sometimes great!The problem is:Everything looks the same.There are some presets(desert for example) but thats **** world is big, too **** not filled with good **** one quest is **** one character is **** you search a great story or epicness, you wont find it **** world is static, nothing changes, ever!The crafting system is interesting at first, and far too strong.Everything youll find will be crap compared to what you can **** in all not worth a buy, sorry.Entertains the first hours, **** pretty quickly after that.
Xenonauts is a predecessor of the original series **** stays true to its source material, no **** thats where the problem starts.X-Com was a great game back than and its still playable.Many games tried to immitate the basic concept, nearly all atempts failed!There are some potential problems that you can encounter as a developer when you try to make an X-Com **** can be too close and the lacks unique ideas or you can be on a complete different page and the outcome is a game that is not close enough to X-Com(like the reboot of x-Com, Enemy unknown).Here, the game is realy close to the **** uses round and AP based combat which is **** uses a skillystem that is realy close to the original, this is ok **** game has some unique **** dogfights are different from X-Com and they are enjoyable at **** cant capture alienweapons and use them, thats different too.I dont like that **** need to produce weapons and you are short on money most of the **** combination.Xenonauts has the problem that there are many, many many titles on the market with the same concept(and some of them are free, like the great "Alieninvasion").Every single game makes something better than Xenonauts, mostly when it comes to the **** example UFO:Afterlight was pretty neat because of the mars enviroment and the big techtree.Afterlight got some interesting weapons, different factions.Where is all this in Xenonauts?The weapons are soooooo booooring for **** look at Extraterrestials.This game has an interesting variation of enemys.Some are immune so specific **** need to mix it up a bit.Where is this in Xenonauts?All in all, Xenonauts is ok.Nothing **** close to X-Com but X-Com is what?20 Years old?Close it not enough and the game is nothing special like i pointed **** own ideas are ok but they are not enough to make this game better than "**** you like the original than buy **** dont think there is something that makes this game better or a step **** thats my major complain.I could play X-Com 20 times and than play Xenonauts, i wouldnt feel a **** thats my final thought on a game than its a fail or at least semi-fail.Sorry guys, without the fanboyfactor this game is mediocre.
Its not realy a good **** has some major **** played all Falloutgames and ive played through Tactics when it came out and now im playing it the second **** basic story is **** problem is the **** **** game tells its "story" with some **** should i say monologues?Cause you cant **** thats my major point why the **** in terms of **** characters are not **** your commanding officer, not the people you save(or kill) and not your **** voiceacting is ok but thats **** dialoges are short and tell not realy a **** progress through the when you finish missions.These missions are sometimes well made, sometimes **** completely because they lack something.There are maps for sneaking, thats **** IT WORKS PROPERLY!!The pathfinding is terrible and sometime youll get spotted because of that or you lose AP because the character takes a strange **** go in a tactical **** much the game is flawed depends on your characterbuild for the maincharacter.Play a sniper and the game is far to easy.Play a melee or unarmed character and you punish **** example:The first enemys **** sneak behind them, hit them in the eyes and most of them die.Problems begin when you encaunter the mutants.They got nasty weapons(big **** sneak uppon them and melee them, youll die probally because of the high HP they got and you lack the power in meleecombat.Remeber those sneakcrits from fallout 3 or New Vegas?In Tactics even this crappy **** needs an extra perk.Makes the hole idea useless.Makes the deathclaw race ****, you can play with deathclaws in your party.Sounds amazing, right?Nope, they **** of time because they die too quickly.Just one example for bad balance and/or design decisions.Another topic are the random **** TOO MANY!!!!And some of them are realy hard if you are on foot.Youve got you APC?The encounters are too easy in that case.Sorry, bad balancing.Another point is the progression in terms of **** game lacks late game content especialy when you play with a meleechar.Youll get the ripper pretty early in the game, the powerfist too.These are the best weapons for close combat.That **** in all, the game is realy fun in the first missions.There is a steady progression, you level up pretty **** the game gets boring pretty fast.
The game is fun at **** has some flaws in its design that keeps it from a better **** example:In some level you can only get a higher rating through equipment that you unlock later.There is no chance to do a delivery faster without the better engine for example(that you unlock later in the game).Thats not realy rewarding cause you cant beat the clock(the rating depends on you time you need through the **** depends only on better equipment, not skill.Visuals are ok and the voiceacting is **** in all the game is fun.
Funny game.Youll learn quick how to play and youll get rewarded quickly.There are some nice cards with funny effects.What bothers me is this:There is not that much **** can mix up to 2 sets(like army+indians), not more.That prevents you from using too strong combos but at the same time it takes away opportunitys because there are not that many cards **** all in all the game is solid.Dont expect something that entertains you for **** lasts for a couple of hours but you will enjoy these **** story is fun.
Hi folks!This review contains some spoilers!Lets start with my what youll get with enemy within: -Medals(which you can award to ANY soldier) -MECs -GenMods(G-Mods) -2 new minicampiagns(3 if you have never played the slingshot DLC) -New maps -2 new enemys -some new researchoptions -1 mission were youll have to defend your base -A new resscourse called "meld" Lets start with the **** short youll sacrifice 1 soldier and his skills.Hell become something like "robocop" but is useless without his MEC.Youll have to produce a MEC.MECs got 3 tech-tiers.With every stage youll have to choose what you want to install on the MEC.That cant be changed later.Which is stupid because at first you dont know how good the equipment **** forget about it, you dont need to know about it because MECs are fare too strong.They can move VERY FAR and the weapons do good damage.They cant use cover but who cares?They got an amazing stock of HP and you can "heal" them.Plus they can repair themselfes.Later they can shoot twice(if you choose this skill which i recommend), fire at the first enemy that fire at them and they got some grenades or a medkit.Thats too **** my case my best MEC got a aimskill of 105 in the **** nearly every time and can shoot **** much.Poorly **** last stage is realy expensive when it comes to meld, thats the only thing.What bothers me the most is that you dont get a new researchtree.Youll get the upgrades through the old researches like autopsies.Cheap!! Ok to the G-Mods.Compared to the MECs the G-Mods are not that strong.Some of them are nice but youll need the MELD for MECs.They are better, believe me. MELD on its own is cheply implementet ****.....just **** some maps you can find ****?Its easy to get meld later with the ghost armor.I think thats an issue too.Balancing is not good. The medals are nice at first **** later youll realize they that the bonus seems weak at first but in combination the bonus is realy high.Balancing issues here too. The new maps are **** complains **** why are there not more maps in the main-game?The base-defense-mission is in my opinion the best mission in the entire **** lacks nothing, you have to fight hard on this map.Great work but here too, thats not enough(same goes for the new mission in a little village with crysalits). The new campaigns are poorly implemented as **** Slingshot DLC was not that good and here youll get 2 new campaigns:The EXALTs and the campaign with Annette and her group(3 missions in total).Both offer nearly no story.EXALT is there, thats all you **** beat them(Why?Youll never know), a lame cutscene, thats it.Thats so cheap. And thats my final verdict for this "Addon":Too much stuff that is poorly implementet and/or bad **** much things where i dont know why was it not in the maingame?Makes the addon the maingame better?YES, if youve loved the **** addon deals with no issues from enemy unknown.Some bugs are still there, games crashes a few **** it when its on a discount, not for the full **** enough value.
Let me make first some things clear:I am member of the FM community since FM2008(in 2008 i dumped the EA manager in hope for fewer bugs and a more realistic approach on the pitch)!I played them all and until 2013 i was realy satisfied.2013 was realy streamlined and the first FM with many bugs.FM2014 takes this a step further.Many bugs(on and off the pitch) plus a more streamlined version of a manager.Lets ignore the bugs first.They will influence the final verdict but when you read this a patch will hopefully killed this bugs.Lets concentrade on the corefeature:The matchengine!Nearly EVERYTHING is broken!The positioning is a real mess for **** and your opponent will score many goals while a little questionmark is over your head how this goal was **** me it was realy rediculous when my winger starts to play like CR.Maxi Beister from **** a good player but not a great player.Scored many times because he dribbles many times while the defenense is realy passive.When there is a defender near him because the defenders will regulary lose sight of the oponent.That and the poor marking/positioning will make it possible for both teams to create an massive amount of shots.Many of them will be on target(most of the time 50% on target in my case).This is real football?REALY??Passing is broken too.Players will try to pass through 3 opponents with ZERO chance of succes.Doesnt matter what you strategy or commands for this player might be, this will ruin **** keepers are some kind of broken too.While they are extrem strong when it comes to saves they suffer from bad positioning and passiveness too when you opponent **** and your opponent will score many goals after crosses or corners because there is no **** in all this game is a piece of **** better than the EA ripoff.Every good review out there is a lie or from **** this is the way the FM goes than this is my **** worth a buy, stick with **** so far the best FM ever.
