Scratched my intermittent itch for tycoon/tycoon-esque games. Very easy to get into, pleasant aesthetic and very cozy over all. Doesn't take long at all to get through to completion and managing your farm+gathering slimes and the various resources around the map was always relaxing and a good time all around. Has mods if you're into that sort of thing and they're easy to just plug and play (I would at the very least recommend a mod to expand the storage capacity of your vacuum pack).
This game is mediocrity incarnate and yet I have an immense soft spot for it, mostly due to nostalgia and perhaps some degree of brain rot.
The turn based combat is extremely slow and meandering with very little in the way of depth and complexity. In the extremely unlikely event that someone decides to play this and also happens to read this prior, please do so on an emulator and use the turbo/speed-up functionality to cut down on the mind numbing length of certain attack animations.
To me, the real draw to this game is pretty much solely in collecting Yu-Gi-Oh! monsters and picking your favorite ones to add to your characters' teams of 3. It's fun to see the creatures on the cards be represented in an RPG context and I always found it cool to see your monsters in the levels/maps that you progress through moving about as you command your characters from point a to point b. Admittedly however the novelty wears off very quickly because 95% of what you do in this game is thoughtless tedium.

If you'd have told me 10 years ago that each successive release from Bethesda Studios would progressively sour my opinion of the company and their games, I'd have honestly thought you were bullshitting me. And yet here we are...
As it currently stands, I have 0 desire of touching this game again until something like a substantial update/mods comes around that looks halfway decent. Even then I'm still not sure if I'll boot the game again, but I suppose time will tell.

I was never the biggest Pokémon fan growing up and although I played a few of the games here and there, I never completed them until this game. I personally found it to be alright, though I 100% agree with the general consensus that it was rather disappointing in comparison to what it could (or perhaps should) have been. I do adore the soundtrack however.

Did you know? The Man-at-Legs is composed almost entirely of a substance known as bullshit.

Pls Capcom gib us Duramboros in the next Monster Hunter

I emulated this game for probably a little over an hour back in I wanna say 2014. I slapped the ever-loving hell out of the Great Jaggi. I then went and bought a Wii U and Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate shortly after. I proceeded to once again slap the shit out of the Great Jaggi and his brethren in HD. This is how my long lasting love affair with the series began.

Of all of the games where you're simply holding W as the main form of gameplay (which I've not played many of admittedly), The Stanley Parable is most certainly a contender for the top spot for its writing and because I just can't get enough of listening to the narrator chide me.
Too intense for me.

Exactly what you'd expect of a movie tie-in game. Aggressively mediocre, entirely forgettable and a chore to finish. If not for having played this with my brother, I could never have mustered the level of insanity required to push past the first hour. As always, co-op can elevate just about anything.
I have fallen head over heels in love with this game over a short period of time. This is my first foray into the Warhammer and Total War series and I am in awe at the fact that I've only just now gone and tried either for myself. There's really a lot to love here, even in spite of what I find to be a rather lamentable business model of churning out myriad DLC that make the cost of entry ludicrously higher than the base game if one wants to dive into the full experience on offer (and yes I'm aware that you can just purchase the DLC piecemeal to your tastes of faction(s)). Also having to pay extra for blood in a game set within a universe as dark as Warhammer's is mind-boggling.
I've yet to complete my first campaign in Mortal Empires but I have been enjoying it immensely thus far and I am looking forward to furthering the Great Plan even as I write this review. I will come back to finish as well as amend this review as needed once my current campaign has ended assuming I don't just start another one right away lol

5 stars not because of any merit on the game's part really, but for the laughs I had as a result of it.

An exemplary remake in that it stays true to the original while still expanding upon it in a meaningful way and thus cements itself as the definitive means of experiencing the original game that started the phenomenon that is the Resident Evil series and survival horror as we know it.
