Another perfectly okay DLC. Some of the more interesting setpieces in any Alan Wake 1 content, but the combat is stretched to its limits here. Still really dig the words mechanic and hope something like it makes it into AW2. Starting that tonight.

I liked the challenge this DLC presented, but that’s about it. It was fine.

Writing was excellent. Ends super quick though - feels like budget constraints or they ran out of time. DLC helps though. Combat was passable but needs some refinement which I’m sure it gets in the sequel.

Plays around with movement and puzzles in an interesting way. Didn't get as challenging as I'd like, but the aesthetics and presentation were excellent.

This game is an excellent alternate take on the Souls/Borne/Kiro franchise. Was blown away by it 'til the very end.

Liked it, but I don't think it was as impressive as Insomniac pitched. I think I miss the more crass R&C. Trophies weren't nearly as fun as they could have been, either. Still very worth playing!

I wish I liked this more. I enjoy Remedy games. But I don't think I was in the right mindset when playing this. Need to try it again one day.

Beautiful, fun game to play. But the child-like story and lack of challenge didn't appeal to me much. Makes me want to retry the OG to get that edgy tone back.

Fun gimmicky game! Can be beaten and even platinumed in one sitting.

Fun little action RPG. Can be beaten in a sitting or two, with 100% taking a bit longer. Cute and charming.

This game is genuinely awesome. A surprisingly good platformer that I enjoy more than Super Mario 3D World - the game that clearly inspired this one.

CrossCode is fucking awesome. It’s beautiful, fun, creative, witty. It delivers on all aspects from story to gameplay. My only issue is the game can feel a little long, but absolutely worth playing.

My video review, that part of the development team saw and complimented <3 : https://youtu.be/26Wwzz4_fE8?si=HVe2dfZ_ET-gMb4_

This game was weirdly intriguing at launch. The story was interesting, the combat wasn’t terrible, but the forced loot system and poor performance made me fall off pretty quickly. Apparently it’s okay now that all the patches have come.

My first playthrough of this game - absolutely excellent. I totally get the hype.

It's amazing how well this game holds up. It still hits today, especially using the GameCube controller. That C-stick is excellent.
