This game was one of the most immersive, fun and chaotic mindfucks that I've ever played. Can't wait for the dlc.

2020

Having played bastion before trying this game. It's amazing how they refined every single mechanic that bastion had. Excellent soundtrack and voice acting, along with good story, visual design and gameplay.

Only complaint I have is with late game gameplay. As a roguelike I felt that the stages got repetitive, predictable and easy. With my main appeal being the story by that point I thought the story progressed maybe too slowly for the 20-30 mins I'd spent slogging through the game

But I still consider this game a must try at least once if you like indie games

This is one of the most beautiful games I've ever played. Balancing gameplay with its beautiful story about anxiety, depression and willpower. Words can't explain how fond I am of this game

I liked god of war but I grew obsessed with it thanks to this entry. Watching the character growth and just insane violence was too much fun

Game looks stunning, but lacks severe enemy variety or any kind of strategy, skill ceiling almost entirely defined by patience and wallet size

+ can't play as a fat character L

Gameplay is 10x better than previous title. But unfortunately got a lackluster finale.

Peak nonetheless

Extremely revolutionary for its time.
Arcade-y feel mixed with great ambience and horror.
If only I could play it again for the first time.

2016

Mick Gordon solos.

Genuinely fun to be able to brute force in a shooter game.

The fact you can see chunks fall out of enemies when you hit them makes every bullet even from the assault rifle feel like it's a fucking missile.

+Mick solos once again

If game came out today as it is, it could get a 4 stars. However, knowing what came before it just shows how corporate greed can kill an entire franchise.

Peak game, hate the npc enemies though.

The arcade feel, gore and story are so unique that I can't help but obsess for a month straight over the game.

Environmental storytelling at its finest.
