Announced features missing.

Hold on to your money.

Dualsense does not seem supported as announced
trading cards advertised do not exist.
There's no cards, no badge, no point shop items.

This might be a bug or maybe a scam.

Same 'ol cosmetic type of stuff.
It's up to you.
It's the cookie-cutter gold skin, yay... whatever.

Perhaps one of the worst expansions i've ever suffered through.

The visuals alone should be enough of a hint as to why.

This is my nominee for both "Outstanding Visual Style Award" and "Sit Back and Relax Award" 2024.

It might be short but it nails everything.
A great, weird and a bit creepy story.
Simple and straight to the point gameplay.
Unique and old-school visuals.
All around great performance.

It's also feature complete and supports all major controller types.

What more could we ask ?

Sure, Hellblade II's graphics are realistic and would be a good competitor in the "Outstanding Visual Style Award".

However, considering the wildly different aestetic, budget and goal in mind, this game deserves the cake; icing and the whole back of cherries on top compared to the poorly optimized Hellblade II in comparison !

For 4.99€ for the base game and 6.28€ with the OST, it's a steal !

On its own merits given what it has set out to do :
Story : 10/10
Gameplay : 10/10
Graphics : 10/10
Performance : 10/10

Keep up the great work, i want to see more original games like this one !

Despite an input problem at release, this game-size expansion leaves everything we got this year in the dust.

Once again, From Software leaves me speechless.

I did not vote for Elden Ring for GOTY 2022 as well as a some other categories and "Labor of Love Award" 2024 for no reason as I take this seriously.

Once again, From Software delivered far above expectations !

I am speechless !

Once again, Thank you From Software !

This is an exceptional standalone save a major bug.

The story is great.
Gameplay is good save a gamey itemization.
Performance is solid.
Graphics are decent.

I had a bug a couple of times where my save still existed and yet could not be loaded.
At that time, i couldn't even make a new character !
All I could do was to back my save up, uninstall tha base game and standalone to then install them again and resume.
I basically had to do that almost every session.

Story : 8/10
Gameplay ; 8-2 (for the aforementioned bug) = 6/10
Graphics 5/10
Performance 10/10

Total : 7.25/10

This is broken.
The achievement transfer is only through save.
You need a third party program to make it playable with a controller.
A bunch of achievements are broken (yes, achievements that never were broken on console).
The full game is 139.99 without sales !

Ubisoft is now pushing DEI and at least tripled down on that.

Rest in pi*s Ubisoft !

Necromunda : Hired Gun is this type of no-nonsense type of game and i love it for that.

Story kicks ass even though you need to know the lore behind some houses in Warhammer 40k to fully grasp the story.

Gameplay is on point aside from controller being locked to xbox only but as an FPS it plays better with m&k anyway.

Graphics are really good but some of my favorite guns in the game are too flashy but it makes sense.
Combat and traversal are fast paced and gory but i wish the executions were more varied.

I was very surprised by performance. However, the controls can be unresponsive here and there...

Story : 9/10
Gameplay : 8/10
Graphics : 9.5/10
Performance : 4.5/10

Total = 7.75/10

Guess who'll wait until reviews before buying anything from Bethesda ?

I guess this might be the end for The Elder Scrolls, Fallout and other Bethesda titles.

Steer clear and check for reviews before buying anything from this studio.

Bye Bethesda, welcome to my sh*tlist.

Story is on point. You have a proper man as a protagonist, tons of characters you'll grow to love and some to hate, deep narrative... It's the full package.

Gameplay-wise it's pretty simplistic but gets the job done. Controller support is locked to xbox only but there are mods to fix that glaring issue. It might be a me thing (I did play and beat the OG back on PS3) but m&k controls feel awful in my humble opinion.

Graphically it almost what was announced aside from an extremely washed out contrast. There's a built-in tool in windows 11 to take care of that (i'm not sure AMD can access it or if it's tied to Nvidia, TBC).

Performance is weird in this port : It has a higher spec recommendation than the sequel/prequel released 8 years after the OG version of Red Dead Redemption.
It does the job but i expected better.
On top of that you MUST have or make a Rockstar accound and there's a launcher.
Once the account done it's just a screen for a few seconds unlike origin and stuff like that.
That thing might be part of the problem.
If you exit the game in any other manner than the stop button in your library that game CAN AND WILL CRASH EVERY SINGLE TIME.
