A fantastic co-op shooter that is fun to play with friends, or with strangers. Features 4 unique classes, various underground environments, crazy horde combat, with much more to come.

Gameplay
Your goal as a Dwarven miner is to complete certain mission objectives in a randomly generated cave, depending on the mission type you've chosen. You will be sent into the planet called Hoxxes IV, where the valuable resources and the deadly bugs reside. Even though this game is heavily centered around Co-op with strangers and friends, it is possible to play solo with an AI drone assisting you.

4 Unique Classes
The game consists of four classes - Driller, Gunner, Engineer, and Scout. Each class plays an important role to the team. Shall it be getting resources from unreachable places, drilling through obstacles, making platforms to cross graps or reach higher places, and crowd control with a minigun. While it is possible to play with identical classes, the game is designed in a way that having four different classes is the most powerful and effective way on surviving a mission.

Addition of Ansel is a big bonus for nvidia users, you can make excellent screenshots ingame and you can make tons of them ingame. Big thumbs up for this one!.

Performance
The game works pretty solid on Nvidia GPU's even maxed out. No issues here, pretty optimized

Conclusion
Excellent gameplay and performance. Highly Recommend this game.

I loved the Dishonored 2 atmosphere. Playing as emily Kaldwin was a fresh new take on the Dishonored series, and the bright lights from Karnaca showed us that stealth games aren't limited to only dark places.

The new powers didn't add much variety on Emily, since bend time and possession are, for me, the core powers for having fun in this game. But the feeling when casting her blink ability is just so awesome.

The missions have cooler non-lethal approaches compared to the first game, which is nice, but the way that the story happens feels less personal than in Dishonored 1. For example, in the previous game we had this island before starting missions, where we could talk to multiple NPCs and there was a lot of character development there. While in Dishonored 2, you are limited to a ship, and only 2 NPCs, sometimes 3 depending on how you play. That made things feel rushed and less personal. On the other hand, the main characters can now speak! That helps a lot on telling the story this time.

At first I thought the game was open world, and when I entered the second mission, that honestly scared me. I stopped playing for a while because the imensity of it made me think I would get a headache, since I planned on collecting everything. But after I came back, I realized it was just like the previous game, That in the end you just have to go from point A to B, and it just depends on how you do that.

I loved getting all achievements for this game, but mostly because they don't include stupid and hard DLC achievements like in the first game. If you tried the Dunwall trials DLC you know what I'm talking about.

In conclusion: Great game, you should definitely try it if you played Dishonored 1.

Best LOTR game so far
Shadow of Mordor is a very good example of how important gameplay is.

Story

You play as Talion, a captain serving at the Black Gate of Mordor. Sauron's forces siege the garrison, kill your wife and son and finally end your life as well. Your body merges with a soul of an ancient elf and together you seek revenge. Yes. Yes, it is a revenge story and to be honest the story is pretty much none existant.

You are introduced to different characters as you progress in the story. You're introduced to exactly 3 characters. Yup. That's it. You'll meet a dwarf, a woman and an older woman. None of them get enough screen time and as a result you don't really care about any of them. Story is not the strong point of this game.
However that's not why the game is loved...

Orcs, and especially J. R. R. Tolkien's orcs, are to be killed. They were made for it, meant for it right from the start. They represent ugliness, and lack of everything that proud humans/elves/dwarfs stands for. Dirty, unholy, brutal, uncivilized... name the bad word, and it will fit any orc just perfectly! Well, with all that... until the Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor was released, I felt pity for the games for this original Tolkien's universe. They were so deep in the shadow of the original saga, that I never felt really attached to any of those. And then, someone envied the Ubisoft with their Assassin's Creed, and decided to make his own game alike, with the Sauron's orcs and naked elf-girls. Alas, the nudity and the beautiful elven charmers never made it to the release version, so we've only got orcs. And the Very Assassin's Creed-like looking main character, some revenant beardy Ranger, infested with the long-dead elven sorcerer.

One of the best simulation on market at these days. Detailed management of the park, great graphics, many settings to adjust your park, excellent design. If you like "tycoon" or "simcity" genre, it's must have game for you. Totally recommended.

I never heard about witcher, i buy this game during discount and also because of the title game of the year. And now, i can't stop playing it.

Personally, i love narrative, very much, and this game gives us tons of cutscene and dialogues which i love it very much, but well, if you are not a big fan of that, you could skip it. I like as well as hate when there is decision making, like it because you always get a choice to choose, hate it because sometimes there is only one outcome, means even you choose differently, the final output is still the same, but the characters will behave differently in terms of gestures, facial expressions, and the character's tone.

I like how the game pay attention to details, for example, whenever a characters knit the brows, you could see the wrinkle on his/her face, this suprised me cuz so far i didn't see any game could do that, or just simply i do not play much games. And also, i like those character's gestures or hand movement, it looks so smooth and naturally.

Overall experience - 9/10
The controls of the combat is simple and fun, and also lots of ways and idea to defeat a monster.
Definitely a best rpg ever made

Early Access Review
Welp, with 600+ hours, I can safely say that this game is just amazing. It has dinosaurs, and it's an open world sandbox survival game. What more could you ask for?
The overall performance and optimizations are getting a LOT better, as it is getting closer to release. I have a pretty good setup (Specs on my profile), and at Medium settings, getting about 40-60 FPS (It differs depending on what is happening, and where I'm at). But aside from the 'okay' performance, the game is pretty neat.
There are some flaws, as expected, being in EA (But not for much longer). The developers aren't the greatest, they seem to completely exaggerate the release dates for some patches, and the release just got delayed for like, the 3rd time. :P

Whatever, the game itself is good. Buy it.
