Zwei: The Arges Adventure definitely wears its age on its sleeve, and it isn’t always a good thing. If this game is your first experience with the Zwei series, you may be able to overlook the flaws and have a good time. However, if you’re coming to this after playing...
Despite a few minor flaws here and there, Monster Hunter World is a blast to play. The combat is exciting and varied, the spectacles are fascinating, and the aesthetics are on point. Whether you’re a newcomer or a veteran of the series, I highly encourage picking this up.
Games like this which thrive on exploration and player creativity NEED that heart and soul to make players care about the worlds they discover and the wonders they create. In any other game this would just be a minor strike against it, but in a game all about making the...
After giving the first game a try, I’ve come to the conclusion that Defiant has improved on the first game in every conceivable way. They clearly haven’t been content to leave it at that, releasing several patches to polish the game even further (If there were any bugs the patches...
From the traditional combat to the dated visuals, Nights of Azure 2 is a mixed bag of boons, banes, and jiggle physics that feel ripped straight out of the ‘00s. There’s a dark allure to this gothic fairy tale that help it feel more nostalgic than antiquated for a time,...
It’s a strategy game lacking in both strategy and gameplay, the plot is near non-existent, the dialogue is juvenile, and the presentation feels ripped from a budget title. I can, quite honestly, not think of a single redeeming quality for this game, other than the fact that it functions as...
Despite the complaints, though, I would still say that this is a story worth experiencing. Featuring a dark atmosphere with some moving moments (and a few touches of immaturity here and there), it’s been a long time since a visual novel has grabbed me as much as this one did....
Overall, A Hat in Time is an adorable, vibrant, and varied romp that fans of 3D platformers will enjoy. What flaws it has do little to change the fact that the gameplay is satisfying and the characters will make you smile. The title is a little on the short side,...
Shadow of War managed to grab hold of me much harder than any other open-world game ever has. Despite its inherant faults, I still had a great time playing through, and can’t say I regret the hours I put in to it. For fans of the original, the expansion of...
In conclusion: If you’re into hardcore platformers or cooperative titles, you’re going to have a great time with this. On the other hand, if you’re looking for a more relaxing romp or prefer only single-player games, this isn’t for you. Despite the name, I wouldn’t quite call it a party...
You will find yourself laughing quite a bit at every ridiculous encounter you’ll come across, and those worried that this game may not live up to what came before it should rest easy. This is a trip into the mountains well worth taking, even if you missed out on its predecessor.
Really, that would be enough to give the game a perfectly mediocre score. However, the sheer ineptitude of a text editing job and horrifying handling of what could’ve been beautiful graphics are major dealbreakers, driving this game down into the dirt.
