This game gave me very mixed feelings.
The planets and the locations are very good, they really put a lot of effort on the details and it's amazing. The backtracking between planets is something that didn't bother me, since you explore different sections every time. It is a bit heavy without fast travel tho, especially for bigger planets like Kashyyyk and Zeffo. Oh, Zeffo, I've lost myself so many times.
The combat system is very good and polished, and it's fun! You really feel Jedi-strong but without breaking the balance of the soulslike combat style. The Force gives you an even wider range of combat and you can really use the playstyle you want. However there's none. There's literally no combat in the game. The enemies are very scarce and too easy to kill (I don't even wanna go to the dismemberment, because Disney). The only really hard situations where you need to concentrate is when the game throws at you a lot of specific enemies that complements each others, and it happens maybe 3 or 4 times in the whole game. The bosses are very few and far apart from each other, and the "minibosses"... I don't even wanna talk about them. You can literally oneshot them, that's all there's to say. I know there's an arena (once you've finished the game) where you can have fun, create your own fights and just cut through stormtroopers, but it's completely separate and it only rewards you with 3 BD-1 skins, so...
The story is ok in the sense that it's the usual Star Wars: nothing too deep nor boring. It's enjoyable, it's a pretty well written story, in my very ignorant opinion.
The last thing I wanna touch is the New Game+. It's completely useless, nor it should be considered a NG+. The only thing you get is an outfit and a new lightsaber colour. I get removing all the metroid-vania abilities, you still need to follow a story and a said path, but what about all the scans? All the secrets that literally just give you more health and force? What about the databank? The tactical guide with all the enemies you ALREADY defeated? Nuh uh, you start from the ground up, again. In a New Game+.
It hasn't been thought out at all.
Overall I'm sad to see such wasted potencial. The game is fun don't get me wrong, I just wish there was more.

This is the second game of the trilogy reboot by Square Enix.
Coming from the 2013 game it's a pretty good improvement overall: the graphics are stunning, especially Lara looks amazing (not in a completely good way since she looks way better than the NPCs lmao).
The story is more intimate and touching, with Lara wanting to re-gain his father's honor and dignity on his behalf.
The plot itself though is a perfect carbon copy of its predecessor, just with a different setting, being Siberian steppe instead of Yamatai island. The characters do not develop at all, and Lara has matured since the last game, which makes sense, but during the game there's no development, she does not grow nor mature at all. Not a really big negative, the game is still enjoyable, but still...
Would have been a very solid sequel if it wasn't for the utterly copied storyline.

It's a gacha version of AFK arena and it has been pretty fun! A lot of microtransactions tho
The combat system is unique and fun, and also brings out the personalities of the well loved characters of Street Fighter. I only hope they will add more and maybe do collabs with other fighting games. Would be mega

Very fun sword game. Unfortunately it's Ubisoft's and they're basically killing their own game. Devs are very dedicated but have a very little budget and can't deliver much. Plz give us a goddamn breach update.
2021
very cool game, better than the first one and it's probably one of the best games I've played. Not too long, not too short. Sometimes some puzzles are a bit unintuitive but it's very very few and you forget about it 30 seconds later. cannot recommend enough
In my personal opinion the best of the Ezio trilogy, not gonna lie. It doesn't take place in his loved Italy but still a very good game.
2019
Very cool and fun game to play on a smartphone. Always updated but it has poor content. There are only two gamemodes, pretty much. So much potential, but the devs do not care that much for what i can see.
Direct sequel to ACII, it's basically the same game with minor gameplay changes and new mechanics. You can feel its age, but it's still a very good game.
