new favorite game right here boys.
the story humanizes chief perfectly, wraps up the cortana ark from 5, and the pilot is adorable.
the gameplay is perfect, sure graphics can be a little distracting, but they work just fine.
the only issues are some tedious missions, and some writing that can be a little jarring at times.

i don't know if it's worth 60 bucks, but it is a beautiful campaign none-the-less.

this game is the biggest surprise of my life. i went into this being heavily skeptical, but with a little studying, i was convinced i'd really enjoy this, and i was right.

it said on the steam page that the game has no real gameplay, but i have to say: that is a lie.
it's not gameplay that's usual to game, but it still has an aspect of risk and reward. the more you do, the more you see, and the more you want to expand.

the biggest thing that make this game so fun is the random grid. with the grid, there becomes a challenge of making your buildings look good.
no matter what you do, no matter how much you're copying something, it's not going to look how you expected it, but it's still going to look great.

this game is amazing, and i'm so glad i played it. definitely my new addiction.

one of the most amazing games i've ever played. my biggest problem is that the campaign/story is too short, and not impactful enough to replay. but the endless mode definitely adds plenty of value.

you have to check out this game. it's the most innovated shooter i've played in years

this game has the same problem as borderlands 2, in that it is far too meant for multiplayer. i ended up downloading a cheat engine just to get through this game. and once i finish it, i'm going to instantly uninstall it, to clear up space on my pc.

the story is ok, but doesn't really make up for the problems. def on the same page as BL2.

this game has been kind of a disappointment lol.
the gameplay is good and solid, but the customization and progression do not make it feel worth it. also the matchmaking can really suck.

i might return to play this game more, but i'll have to wait for once i get tired of better games lol.

as of returning to it, my mind has not changed. this is such a meh game. and this returning to it made me realize the gameplay isn't even all that great.
this is such a meh game, i'd reccomend against picking it up.

i got this game on sale for 30 bucks, and i'd say that it's worth the full price. no matter what car you get in, you are going to have so much fun in it. even if the car sucks, you can go wild upgrading it to make it almost a completely different car.

i have to admit that this formula isn't perfect, and can be aggravating, but i loved my first entry in it.

the beginning of a brilliant concept that has saved me countless hours of boredom.

the gameplay itsself is solid enough for around 10 hours of gameplay, but everything surrounding it falls apart. i was really hoping the career would be more progressive, like forza, but no. it's just pick an event, and race, there's nothing else to it.
there aren't enough choices for this to be that interesting, i'd say wait for a sale.

this is an amazing game. the platforming can be iffy, but it's very fluid. i'd love to see a sequel adding more ways to traverse.

but it loses some of my respect for that shit time limit level.

this game is tons of fun, but i wish there was more. there's so little, that the colors have to be restricted to shitty challenges. i feel like if i 100 percented it, i wouldn't feel satisfied.

super fun, but not too much to keep me coming back.

holy fucking shit this game. this is a really unique case. everything you do in this game feels amazing, the guns, the glory kills, everything. but what happens around you is where it starts to get interesting.

this game is stressful. even on the easiest difficulty i will find myself struggling. so the satisfaction comes from the result of the stress. the amazing music, and the satisfying as fuck glory kills.

the things i hate about this game are the unneeded platforming sections, and the bullshit enemies: the marauder and the archville; they throw away everything the game was about before, and force you to play a certain way, making the game way less doom, and in the process way less fun.

i love this game. it's so casual and calm. it's nice to put this on while listening to youtube or some music. and the progression is at a perfect rate so it never feels like you're not getting anywhere, but it still takes a lot of work to progress.

gameplay gets a 5.

this game is a masterpiece. the lack of linearity can be really threatening, and what you have to do isn't obvious all of the time.
this game is really brave for trusting you to know what to do, but sometimes i prefer the game to be more direct in telling me what to do, especially in a linear game with a set path, so sometimes i feel like i'm going in circles.
the gameplay loop is amazing. later on once you're more exposed to the collection of weapons, it becomes a loop of: battle, scavenge, move forward; and i love it.
while it can be threatening to some, once you get going, it's one of the most fun and creative first person shooters i've ever played.

i played a little of this and it was just too much. i do have to say that it knows what it wants to be, and it's well fleshed out, but the difficulty and punishment is too much for me to want to binge it. it doesn't help that the fanbase insults you if you want it to be easier.

i might return to it one day, but for now: i'm good.
