Annoyed, touched grass, no longer annoyed.

10/10- touch grass

I suck at it, but still fun (fatal error) to play
10/10- Do (fatal error) recommend

Generally not a fan of Ark, and those kind of games, but so far enjoying this one for some reason..
It is cute, and interesting.
The graphics are good, however the game can be very taxing for your PC, maybe they will optimize it even further during the early access phase, but as it stands right now, rather heavy game that recommend 32 gb of ram for instance while most other games recommend 8-16(mostly 16 these days from what I have noticed).
Fun game, no idea if there is a story yet. Just building my house with my "pals" and trying to get stronger at the moment basically.

8/10- Do recommend

Great game, very nostalgic for those who played any of the older ones on their old ps2-3 but now we finally got one for the PC and hopefully more will come (copium).
Nice story, amazing graphics, fun gameplay, great sound, fairly easy 100%.
Only downside I would say is that the game itself isn't really difficult even on the highest difficulty which is kinda meh in some cases, but still very enjoyable laid back game, there is however a "challenge mode" which is essentially NG+ for when you have finished the game, which is where the two last weapons for the "get all weapons" achievement is for 1 bolt each.
I used an Xbox controller with 0 issues.

10/10- Highly recommend it, I very much enjoyed my time playing it.

0 deaths vs Margit (I promise 100%.............. I am lying)
Great game so far, no idea what I am doing but great game
10/10- will die some more (I mean.. 0 deaths)

Beautiful and sad game, made me tear up a few times (possibly from trying to keep my eyes open).
Having a webcam is recommended albeit not required to play. You can just use your mouse to left click if you don't want to use the blink mechanic of the game.
Rather short game about like 1.5hrs or so, but to 100% maybe closer to 3hrs.

10/10- Great story game

Pay to win? Sort of yes also no..
Some dlc killers are cracked, and so strong it isn't even funny, and some perks you get in some of the dlc's for killer and survivor can be extremely broken, and if you are to buy one character with said perks or so with in game hard earned currency, it will take about maybe 40-60 hours, however if it is a licensed character like Leon from Resident Evil, you have to buy his perks whenever they come on a certain shop thingy which is so not worth it, since you can't buy him with free ingame currency. SOOOO you will have to buy his dlc or just him with real money.
There are quite a bit of microtransactions when it comes to the dlc's to unlock characters, other than that, everything is just skins.

I am however going to give props for the Battle pass they have in this game known as "Rift" which you can get a free version of and if you want the version that cost it is like 10 euro.. BUT if you unlock all of it by grinding a bit, you get all of that ingame currency that cost 10 euro back, so you then can buy the next pass aswell over and over.

Rating 7/10

Pros:
The graphics are absolutely gorgeous for the most part since you don't get to see your own characters face too often which look like she got run over by a truck filled with acid and had some surgery to fix it.

The gameplay is like Ghostrunner, Doom Eternal style and it is First Person don't know why one trailer made it seem 3rd person, maybe there was some option I didn't know about.. anyways, gameplay is overall enjoyable but not difficult at all really, not even on Hell difficulty I found a challenge.

Cons:
The story is in my opinion awful, no build up, no backstory, just "Hi I am your agent and some stuff is happening, I need you to fix it" and suddenly you attack some guards and basically temple monsters, the story in whole felt really bland, and like they just had it there to make it seem like a story game even though it is just an FPS where you have superpowers sort of..

There were some bugs I ran into where my double jump would not work, no shooting or abilities would work so I had to alt tab real quick.
Got an enemy to fall of the map which usually would kill the enemy in most games, but it landed on an invisible wall or something or just kept falling so I had to restart that checkpoint to do it all again. Same as when I happened to fall of a cliff since the double jump did not want to work just then and same happened to me, instead of killing me instantly which it did most of the time, I just kept falling and had to restart.

I also noticed that the character did not always want to grab onto ledges which could too end up in falling to your death.
And sometimes when standing completely still and trying to do a Pull, she would instead do a charge attack which she is supposed to only be able to do when in full sprint..

The game is about 2 hours or so to beat, but about 4 hours for 100% achievements. I do recommend the game if you like the Pros I mentioned and don't really mind the Cons, BUT get it on a sale is my recommendation.

Steam should implement like a star rating system instead so we can show a middle option instead of total yes or total no..

Got the game since I enjoy the Anime.
The game had a lot of potential however it is incredibly flawed, the Online is practically dead and there are a lot of achievements tied to online, but that can still work since after about 3 min of not finding someone you get matched with and against bots, and that counts toward achievements still.

People with an AMD gpu seem to not be able to see the menu properly and a lot of hud features. But does not seem to be an issue for Nvidia users.
For instance I could never see the menu ingame while clicking ESC and not able to see the communication menu which have achievements tied to it by doing a spray in game and a chat command that make your character say something which is achievement. So I straight up guessed and got lucky with my pick on the invisible menu..
Also had no crosshair which is apparently supposed to be in the game but yeee it is bugged..

Had some instances with the game kicking me and a friend because "Anti cheat" but none of us cheat so that is really weird as well..
The game also has a tendancy of making the opposing bots OP but the ones on your team would rather watch the sunset than help you win the game so you can move on from it.

I sort of enjoyed the game still, even though it is flawed as hell.. 5/10

PS: You do need all the DLC to get 100% achievements since some achievements are locked behind DLC Characters. I also bought it on the sale that was just now for like 10$ or so and for that price I could still call it worth it since like I said.. I did enjoy it even though all the bugs and such.

A million points to Avalanche Software!
