Morrowind is the best game I've ever played, It has a lot of depth and the world just feels so alive and warm even with the old graphics (which I don't mind). I just wish I had a friend to play it with...

The writing and world building is amazing, there is so much lore within the dialogue and the books that it can even help you with certain quests or finding your way around. Having to actually use your brain to figure out how to do quests is a nice change too.

Great game with a terrible ending. No real RPG elements, no talking or discussing with the other kids outside of missions as they cannot be found anywhere. The crafting is pointless as you can just buy items anyway, the items you pick up have generic names like scrap or biohazard other than the beginning text of when you pick an item up where as in Stuck of Truth they would be their own individual item.

I would recommend the game on sale due to the ending ruining the game.

I should also mention that the edgy or "shock" humour is way toned down in this game due to what I believe is the developer, ubisoft won't push the envelope too far for rating issues. The first game had more raunchy moments than this game

Game is terrible, dev releases half ass updates then tells people to not play the game until hes patched it... Like why release it at all then?

GOTY 100%

p.s this game sucks ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ balls, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ terrible. Gives xbox controller prompts on PC like im some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ chump in a favela in brazil playing on windows XP with a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ xbox 360 emulator thats badly ported

Drawing with a pencil and a plain piece of paper is more fun and than this. At least with that It actually works baring in mind you sharpen the pencil first. (Unlike this game which is 4fps on the main menu with an RTX 3080, Intelcore i9-12900kf)

I am a 45 -year -old father, probably one of the oldest people playing this game. I am a single father raising my son, who is now 14 years old. My son won this game from his uncle, so we installed him on his computer and he started playing. Until the end of the week he had 24 hours in this game. This was horrible for me, because it was hard to find ways to spend time with my son, because he is always with friends or just watching Youtube. So I decided to do a Steam account and get this game to see if I could play beside him. I bought the game, chose my skin and world and started playing, but I was stuck in what you should do. I asked my son for help and he organized a game for me to participate. I loved it, because it was the best time I spent with my son since my wife died. Since then, this game has approached me and my son again and now we spend time together away from home as well. This game reminded me that there is fun in everything, and I brought many happy memories to me and my son.

Basically a game thats 100x better than pretty much any game in the past 5 years with the added benefit it releases like a game pre-2013 when you actually got a full game at release that works without issues. Pretty rad

The company I work for forced me to buy this game for myself and another employee under the guise of morale building yet all I got was ♥♥♥♥ talking and harassment,

captivates players with its ingenious gameplay mechanics and engaging storyline but also serves as a testament to the remarkable achievements of its development team. Crafted by a team of three talented POC (People of Color) female developers, including Black individuals, Portal 2 breaks barriers and sets new standards for inclusivity and representation within the gaming industry.

The significance of having Black individuals within the game development process cannot be overstated. Historically, the gaming industry has struggled with issues of diversity and representation, often lacking adequate representation of Black voices, perspectives, and experiences. The underrepresentation of Black developers has resulted in limited and stereotypical portrayals within games, perpetuating harmful biases and perpetuating a lack of understanding.

By having a 3 POC female dev team, including Black individuals, at the helm of Portal 2's creation, the game industry takes a step forward in rectifying these historical imbalances. It demonstrates the importance of diversifying the workforce behind the scenes, giving Black developers the platform and opportunity to shape the narratives, characters, and worlds within games. This representation ensures that the gaming experiences are more authentic, relatable, and inclusive for players from all walks of life.

Portal 2 not only showcases the exceptional talents of the Black developers involved but also highlights the positive impact of diverse perspectives on the game's overall quality. By incorporating different experiences and cultural backgrounds into the game's development, Portal 2 becomes enriched with new ideas, fresh storytelling approaches, and nuanced characterizations. This diversity of thought and creativity leads to a more vibrant and compelling game, resonating with players on a deeper level.

Additionally, the inclusion of Black individuals in the development of Portal 2 opens doors for future generations of aspiring Black game developers. It sends a powerful message that their voices are valued, their talent is recognized, and their contributions are vital to the growth and evolution of the gaming industry. This representation encourages more diversity within the industry, allowing for a broader range of stories to be told, perspectives to be shared, and barriers to be broken.

Portal 2's success as a game created by a 3 POC female dev team, including Black individuals, challenges the industry to reevaluate its norms and embrace a more inclusive approach. It proves that diversity is not only a matter of social justice but also a catalyst for innovation, creativity, and commercial success. It inspires game developers, publishers, and players alike to champion inclusivity, dismantling barriers that have prevented Black individuals from fully participating in and contributing to the gaming industry.

In conclusion, Portal 2 stands as a masterpiece that not only entertains players with its brilliant gameplay, captivating narrative, and stunning visuals but also serves as a milestone for representation and diversity within the gaming industry. By showcasing the talents of a 3 POC female dev team, including Black individuals, Portal 2 exemplifies the importance of Black voices and perspectives in shaping the future of gaming. This game paves the way for a more inclusive industry, where diverse experiences can be shared, celebrated, and ultimately enrich the gaming experiences for players around the world.
