Super duper fun 2D platformer, Deff worth checking out if you haven't played this game before. I probs wont be doing the post game content anytime soon tho because it looks really hard ;(

You won't get much out of this if you don't play with friends
2022
This is one of the fastest fall offs I've seen from a game

Cool tech demo for Broforce. Nothing else beyond that though

It's the same game as CS:GO but in source 2 which makes it look better. Despite how little they changed with this update, it wasn't AS bad as something like OW2, and it's still up there as one of my go-to mutiplayer shooters of choice. Also this is wayyyyyyyyy better than shitty as valorant LOL xD
This is probably what I would default to (along with OW and R6) as my go to FPS game. It's just designed so well and playing alone or with friends is just really fun. You still have the option to play this version if you download it from the betas, but you can't play online as that has fully migrated over to CS2. But this game will always hold a special place in my heart as it was one of my main gateways into valve, and FPS games as a whole.

How do you sell the bag this bad. For when it was popular tho it was pretty fun.
2019
eh. Fortnite is my go to battle royale as while the movement in this game is fun,
This is coming from someone who's go-to FPS game is Overwatch: I CANT UNDERSTAND WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON IN THIS GAME. IT'S SO FAST PACE IT'S ACTUALLY TOO FAST. I GENUINELY CANNOT PLAY THIS GAME BECAUSE OF HOW ABSURDLY HIGH THE SKILL CEILING IS.
I could enjoy this game in the future IF i ever come back to it, but for now at least, this is definitely not a game for me

Kinda fun at launch but fell off HARD
This is a game you play once a year with a couple of friends and have no idea what the fuck to do and just admire the degeneracy in voice chat. I could probably learn how to play this game but I almost don't want to just so I can have a fresh experience every time I boot up this game

What a peak game, I wonder what the dev teams will do with the sequel. The PVE looks like so much fun :D

This review contains spoilers
While DS3 has undeniably some of the best bosses in the entire series, with particular highlights being in the late game and DLCs of this game, This game is held back by 3 main things:
1) the atmosphere. This might be the most depressing game I've ever played (maybe except for inside) because the colour pallete is just beige, grey and dark green. It's so dull and while I definitely feel like that was the goal, there is just so much colour in many other of the souls games like DS1, DS2, Elden Ring, and I'd even say DmS. Playing the early game of this game for more than an hour makes me want to kill myself because of how muted it is, and it greatly hinders the replay value I get from this game.
2) The areas. HOLY SHIT THEY SUCK. In the entire game I think maybe 4-5 of the areas are at the very least bearable. And half of them are in the ringed city DLC. DS3 is probably the opposite of DS1, as most of the games quality is in the second half of the game rather than the first, but at least in DS1 there was SOME stuff in the second half that made it fun to trek through (Dukes archives is a fun area with a cool gimmick, Nito is a cool boss, Four kings can be fun, and I actually like the Centipede Demon). But outside of High wall and MAYBE Undead settlement on a good day, playing through the early game areas of DS3 is just ass. They are sooooooo fucking linear in design and not really many branching off points to go and mess around with, like in DS1 with the darkroot garden and the valley of drakes which lets you do some funky shit out of order.
3) the enemies. The bosses in DS3 are really fucking awesome dont get me wrong, but FIGHTING ENEMIES SUCKS. I feel like everyone ESPECIALLY in Lotheric castle is soooo beafy and has needlessly hard movesets to learn, making them just pains in the ass as I try to get to each boss. I tried to do an int build on one of my subsequent playthroughs but genuinely couldn't get past some of the enemies and had to respec into dex to finish up the game.
Overall while DS3 definitely cuts back on a lot of the jank of the older games, it loses a lot of the charm from those older games that I really appreciated, and also makes fighting through everything that isn't a boss hard and annoying.
In conclusion DS1 better xD
(also fuck the trophy list)

This is the most disapointed I've ever been with a shooter sequel.
But it's still overwatch and in the past year or so (mainly just the past few months) the devs have added a lot and fixed some of the bigger issues with the game. Also Venture is really fun so Idk saves it from being lower

Coming from someone whose experience with 2D metroidvanias is dropping super metroid like 5 times when i was 11 and barely getting past the 4 hour mark in hollow knight, Animal well is a phenomenal game and is first 2D metroidvania i actually beat (which is insane considering I literally beat it within the first 24 hours of its release; even if its on a bit of the shorter side only taking ~5-6 hours).
It places more emphasis on intellectual skill rather than mechanical, as while there are cool bits of tech to mess around with in this game, it mainly revolves around getting items that help with solving puzzles, opening up new areas in pre-existing ones you passed previously, which made it a really fun gameplay loop as I would go down some random ass cave for like an hour, get a cool item, then as I'm walking back to one area that I think I use it on, I find another that leads to even more cool shit.
This game also has a TON of secrets. I found myself looking through each tile really carefully to find as many of the secret eggs as I could (i think I got ~29 by the time I beat the game).
The level design is also really well done, as I was playing around with a couple friends, and we all went into 3 completely different areas and still stood at around the same level of progress, and we could help each other out if we were lost as our knowledge on how to utilize different skills was varied, which is just something insane that I haven't seen in many other games. 2 people can actually have completely different playthroughs as they can go down 2 completely different routes and try out weird solutions to problems in other areas.
This game just blew my expectations away and is definitely a must play. Its currently on a 10% sale and is definitely worth checking out if you were like me and struggled to get into other 2D metroidvanias. Its a great starting point and playing this game makes me wanna go back and finish up my hollow knight playthrough. Billy Basso COOKED

This might be the most glazed game of all time but that doesn't stop it from having one of the coolest worlds in any game period, accompanied by beautiful visuals and great mechanics that only suck in the latter half of the game when half the enemies are bullet sponges and getting more than 30 bullets for each encounter is a blessing
