With Alan Wake 2 coming out soon I think there's a lot of people playing this cult classic for the first time. I gotta say, it really did not live up to its expectations for me. Not that I think its a bad game or anything, but it really just felt.. alright.

I understand that Alan wake was one of the first games that got meta like this, but I just felt very blasé the entire time I was playing it. The "meta" story felt very surface level, and the gameplay, while certainly fun at some points, became a slog because of how repetitive it became.

I respect the game, and its inspirations, but I think that for some people it just didn't age very well. If you loved this game, then power to you, but I believe that for what it tries to accomplish, it gets outshined by many other games in the genre.

Really 2K?

Really?

Is this how low you want to stoop?

Are you really gonna use Kobe Bryant, a dead man on the special edition of your sports game just to make money?



You have hit a new low.

Sem palavras pra este jogo maravilhoso, foi INCRIVEL fazer 100% nele e merece tremendamente ter se tornado meu jogo favorito de TODOS! Inexplicável dizer tudo que esse jogo trouxe pra mim, uma experiência única.
Designs diversificados, a criatividade o artstyle SÃO FENOMENAIS. Não tem uma fase desse jogo que achei ruim, chata ou enjoativa e é muito satisfatório pegar as criações e melhorias. O final pra mim foi incrível, literalmente eu chorei e o choque que levei com a surpresa é indescritível.
Uma evolução ENORME do primeiro jogo, principalmente no combate e é uma demonstração de como deve ser feita uma sequência.
Apenas JOGUEM se possível, se curte plataforma ele é um jogo indispensável.
Só uma aviso no INICIO DELE, ele conta toda a história do primeiro jogo, e ele sofre um problema igual Banjo - Kazooie, sendo jogue o 1 ANTES do 2, parece meio obvio mas, ele é tão melhor em questão de gameplay e vai ser dureza você se acostumar a voltar pro primeiro.

I can confidently say WWE 2K22 is a phenomenal game. It's the most fun I've had with a wrestling game since 2013. I have been highly critical of 2K and their WWE games since they got the license in 2014 and at one point I just started to skip them altogether. I am extremely happy I did not skip this one. Well worth the $60 I payed for it. The my GM mode is incredibly fun especially over remote play with a friend. The career mode is well put together with branching stories that really helps you feel like a WWE superstar. This game is exactly what I'm looking for in a pro wrestling game and it's good to see 2K finally get it right.

This is coming from someone who thinks Saints Row 2 is a 5/5 game and the best in the series (not too familiar with 1 tho). Even playing a lot of 3 and 4.

I don't get the hate. Someone's gonna see the 5 star rating and just say it's bias and yeah kinda. But to me I thought the writing here was good. Like a good mix of 2 and 3. Even the gameplay just being like 3 but better. As far as bugs go, I didn't see any and I 100%'d this. Maybe it's different on PC given I did it on XSX but idk. Still I think people should give this more of a chance once they get past whatever bugs there are. Also, at least imo, the writing is nowhere near as bad as 3 and 4 just being like Borderlands/Adult Swim bait. Like just random adult humor for the sake of being random. This game still has /some/ of that, but it didn't feel like they were shilling out to a tv channel.

Also I see "they talk about student loans too much"
they mention it like twice. calm down.



Adding a bit to the end now that all the DLC is out and Volition shut down:
All of the DLC was dogshit. Like extremely disappointing, but honestly kinda relieving to know this game is /done/ done. Sad Volition shut down, but, as far as I can tell. Both Deep Silver and Gearbox (scary) still have the rights to the series. At this point I just hope they can finish the SR2 PC patch. Either way, I still really like the base game here. Just don't get the DLC.

There's a ton of work simulator games but not many about workers, which is a shame, cause it adds a lot to this one.

The core game play rules. It just really clicked with me. Learning the ships felt good. Trying to work too fast and getting sucked into the furnace really made me re-experience the feeling of fucking up at various jobs. I like how mistakes aren't really punished mechanically, but the context makes you feel bad anyway.

In general, I was a big fan of the writing. Lot of the specifics about the work and the characters felt real. A subtle thing I think they nailed is how there actually are people who like doing dangerous, physically demanding jobs, and people who take pride in their work, and how the company uses that earnestness to exploit them further. Also, upgrade trees suck, so it was a good joke how all the upgrades are about having to pay for proper software updates and safety measures.

The dialog gets a little hokey, and I didn't like all the performances, but whatever. The endings (both of em) were just awful. But overall a game that was extremely my shit.
