While this game does improve on the open world format in a lot of ways it's just so empty and the world is so incredibly unbelievable. You can't be gritty apocalypse and have random bowling mini games in the middle of a field of monsters. Not to mention how unlike the rest of the Zelda franchise this was. Biggest frustration point was the weapon durability though. Too bad ToTK decided that was its favorite mechanic I guess.
A gorgeous game, from the story, to the gameplay. But in particular, I must add a note to the design and look of the Hyper Light Drifters art style; for being only what I can describe as one of the best looking uses of the pixle art medium I have ever seen. Besides the art howerver, Hyper Light Drifter does almost everything else almost perfect as well. The gameplay is tight, and seems relativly fair, with bosses being capable of stunlocking you pretty good if not careful. Such being, from time to time, a slight annoyence, but not to such a degree that is ruins the experiences of fighting. Overall, A must play game.

Portal 2 is one of if not the greatest video game of all time, it's gameplay is obviously incredible; taking the polished and fun portal physics of the first game and placing them into puzzles.
This is of course combined with a sharply written narrative with whitty humour which is delivered by 2 phenomenal voice actors; Ellen McLain and Stephen Merchant.
This is all of course neglecting the great co-op mode, underrated yet investing soundtrack and wonderful aesthetic brought to life by graphics that have aged about as much as gold can.
