Really loving it. I had bought it a while back and couldn't really get into it for some reason. Now though, it easily ranks up there as one of the best Survival crafting games.

It's intricate enough to keep you occupied yet not overwhelmingly so. Sometimes the descriptions of items and how to get them are a little vague but the wiki can easily fill in any blanks I had.

You start off trying to build up your own little village. Build a house for yourself, then start to build some other buildings that will enable you to craft other types of items or weapons that you can't craft by hand. Chop some trees, pick up some rocks and you're golden. Few hours into the game, you start to realise that this is some pretty tedious work and realise you can have other people do it for you while you go out and start to adventure.

Understanding how to get any villagers you acquire to do the lame work for you is probably the hardest part of the game. It's very detailed in this area and took me the longest to figure out. But once I did... wow. Now I can go do missions to make extra much needed coin while my villagers work on getting the materials I need to build my village even further. Get a wife, have kids, and have them do work for your village too.

Anyhow, i'm only about mid-game so far and this game has been and will be taking up my free time for the foreseeable future.

Great little game to jump in and out of, easy to pick up and continue.

Some may think that some of the mechanics are a little bothersome like collecting junk taking up inventory room and yet only selling for $1 but I think that just adds to the lifespan of the game otherwise it'd be finished too quickly.

3 out of 5 stars if you liked the destruction in JC3 and how it played into the game (In case you don't know JC3, it was a core feature). In JC4 it's not a main focus. In fact you can completely ignore enemy breakable objects all together if you want and it won't even really make a difference. Sure you get a few points bla bla bla but it's not important at all which i really missed from JC3...

Now, if you don't care about the breakables, then JC4 is awesome! Lots of combat (Ground, Sea, Air), lots of weapons and vehicles, some pretty cool stunt challenges too. Story continues (I'd hope so, it's the 4th game in the series) and it's pretty out there which is JC style. In fact, it's over the top with pretty much everything which is what you want if you're already a fan of JC lol.

Either way, I do recommend the game plus the DLC's but that's coming from a fan of the series and a fan of over the top games.

This game is clearly a copy of "Last Day Survival" on Mobile, but also has a few things from Fallout thrown in. As far as Free Games go though, it's actually really good. The Mobile game was good too so that helps. The Prices are a little steep for packs and such but you can get by without really having to buy them (but they are helpful).

If you don't mind the grind and having to wait for timers, this is a pretty good Free survival game and worth the try.

I love this game! It's great to finally have a Dragon Ball Z game that is an adventure game and not another Fighting game. Playing this game is like watching Dragon Ball Z: Kai too which is nice, sticks to the story completely plus with the added bonus of the side missions, intermissions, etc. It's also nice to have some RPG elements added allowing the player to upgrade skills and attacks, then choose which super attacks can be used in battle not just by the player character but by support characters as well.

I Highly recommend this game for any DBZ Fan. Also for anyone who may be interested in the series this game is a good place to get acquainted with the Z series.

I've played every Assassin's Creed game from PS3 to PS4 (so not the more mobile ones like Liberation) and after beating Odyssey on PS4 I bought it on Steam on sale to play through yet again. I have to say, this is by far one of my most favorite ones of the series.

The combat system is closer to that of The Witcher 3 (which I also loved) which adds a new way of playing Assassin's Creed, rather than your typical button mash to win style of gameplay that the series usually had, it makes you need to time your attacks a little more to land successful attacks. Once you master the combat system you'll take great pleasure in cutting down your enemies.

What's also nice about this one is you have three different combat styles, which allows you to either focus on your preferred style (Hunter, Warrior & Assassin) or strengthen each of these styles if you're more "neutral" in that sense.

There aren't really any throwbacks to the other games except for the very small parts you spend outside of the Animus (very short times outside) so anyone interested in picking this up doesn't have to worry if they haven't played the previous games.

The DLC adds quite a bit of story gameplay to the main story which is already quite large. There have been lots of reviews about the DLC which I won't touch on that bash it but it's a game and we are not the writers, so I don't see the issue. If you don't buy it because of that one point then you're going to loose out on a great game.

I HIGHLY recommend this game to any fan of the series or anyone who loves open world games with some crafting (huge open world).

My god yes! I beat the game back when it 1st came out but on PS4 back in 2015 and recently picked it up on sale on Steam and it's just as amazing as it was back then. Graphics are high-end even by today's standards and they did proper compatibility testing cause even my old rig runs the game at Ultra. The Witcher series has been known to be very story rich and this one does not disappoint.

The Map is massive and filled with missions everywhere you go and amazing monsters. I highly recommend it.

Haters will hate.

I'm a HUGE fan of the series from start to finish and I'm a big fan of open word games. Fallout 4 for me stays up there at the top of my list of favorite games. so much so that I have it on both PC and PS4. On Console it was all about the playthrough and exploration. On PC it's all about the mods (gives me a chance to start modding and test out the ones on Bethesda.net before PS4 mods come out). I did the same with Skyrim and Falout 3.

With that said, as has been mentioned in previous reviews, the conversation options are a little odd compared to previous iterations of the title but I think that with the new Settlement building system it more than makes up for it, I've found myself spending hours just building, even while other settlements are under attack and while Preston keeps telling me about settlers who need my help.

I'm not a big fan of "immersion" so for me everything about Fallout 4, at it's core, is perfect. One thing Bethesda needs to start adding is a "Quick Start" to their games for players who have already completed a playthrough and just want to start over without going through the intro.

Over all, I'm giving this a big thumbs up.

I'm one of those few people who never played Dragon Age till now, I'm not a huge RPG fan. I have to say though, this game stands the test of time. Story is rich and gameplay is fun. Graphics wise, the game is still beautiful. Also, with the fact that you can now get the entire game and all DLC's at low cost it's worth picking up.

With all that said, I hope someone who hasn't played the DLC's reads this before doing what I and so many others have done. There's a massive bug in the Awaking DLC where the player can loose all or some equipment when in the Siverite Mine. I had quickly seen something about this but didn't pay attention to it since the game has been around for so long and figured that it would have been fixed for quite some time, but I was wrong. I HIGHLY suggest going out and patching it yourself before starting. Nexus Mods has a fix that I suggest using before you get all angry like I did. The fix can be found at here at Nexus Mods[www.nexusmods.com]. Dumb bugs never being fixed does take away from games when you loose all your stuff and can't get it back... Even if you're just starting the main playthough, fix it now before you forget.

Early Access Review
So much fun. Love the cross between survival and Crafting/Building. Material isn't that difficult to get providing your not on a jam packed server. Get some friends and all join the same server and it gets real fun.
