Whoever designed those spinning blade sections in Hades should be punished for their crimes against humanity. Everything up to there is great though, story and gameplay, but I do feel like that section brings it down a little. Cool boss fight with Ares but the 'hug your family to win' bit in the middle of it felt a little out of place

I was worried that Ragnarök would suffer from being in the shadow of its predecessor but it’s the opposite. The sequel takes everything great about the first game and builds upon it while also adding in new elements to keep everything fresh. The story and character progression is up with some of the best and there’s so much to do throughout and in the post game that feels overwhelming in a ‘I’m glad I still have a reason to keep playing' kind of way. Once I’ve got the platinum trophy I’ll consider pushing it up to 5 stars but it’s already damn close, let me tell you
If you're a Star Wars nerd like me then you'll get a lot of joy out of this game. It's nowhere near perfect but the locations, the sheer amount of characters, the memes, it's all I was looking for from a Lego game

Getting the platinum in this game was unbelievably satisfying. There's so much to explore and the it's all so beautiful and there's loads of customisation for your outfit and weapons. Man, I need to play it again

I hadn't played an FPS in years before a friend recommend me this game and my god, apparently my reflexes suck now. This game is on crack and speed and who knows what else but it's a hell of a lot of fun. Was all I did at the start of the first COVID lockdown

I never got the hate for this game. It's obviously not as good as Part 1 but it's damn enjoyable. Playing as Abby feels really weird and wrong at first but by the end of the game you feel for her and Ellie. Wish they didn't do my boy Joel like that though
As a kid I remember absolutely loving the fact you could capture any of the creatures and then look at them in a museum. Gameplay's fun too
It’s too big for its own good but at least it’ll keep you going for a long time? I had fun with it but gave up on 100% a long time ago
I put god knows how many hours into this game to get the platinum trophy but it was so worth it. Obviously there’s no stealth anymore but as an evolution for the franchise, this is a damn good one
Look. I know this isn’t classic AC anymore but it pulls off the RPG elements really well, the combat's great, and provides a cool origin for the entire franchise
Everything I remember about this game is outside of the story, like the great map and ship combat, but that’s enough for me to say this is a really good time

I never understood the hate for this game. Admittedly, Conner has 0 personality but the combat and movement feels good which is most of the game
It’s a cool resolution to Ezio's story and I like the setting but I don’t wanna play a tower defence minigame when I could be jumping across rooftops
Was never gonna top AC2 but still a fun game that could’ve been improved with more locations
I played this for about 20 minutes max and hated how it played so much I sold it
