Hands down this is one of the best combat skill-based single player game on 2019

be aware, unlike any other fromsoftware titles, especially Dark Souls Trilogy and Bloodborne you have more variant and different approaches, but huge NO to Sekiro game, it INSIST you to mastering "sword-clashing" mechanic which is the core in combat in-game. Either you will stick with Ninja move or you're having hard time just like me defeating final boss took me 3-4 days of my free time haha. take note learning Deflecting and timing "mikiri" are truly crucial on defeating any bosses in-game.

be aware, this is not for everyone game, it keep punishing you until you learning core mechanic battle properly with IMPECCABLE TIMING counter, hence, this is not an easy game. BUT it will getting easier if you're keep learning and reaching what internet said "GIT GUD" State, then you can easily defeating any enemies in-game.

Soundtrack
Soundtrack features in-game is beautiful, it immersive and cue hint counter while in combat truly helping you to identify when to counter, or when to execute moveset depends on the situations. Soundtracks truly fitted with Sengoku Era, and the Bossfight Soundtrack just mesmerizing like any other Soulsborne game titles.

Conclusion
Take note that everything weird from Human-sized chicken to Sun Wukong with Sepak Takraw are trying to kill you in cruel way also hit like a train, personal rating after having one normal ending, i'd probably gave it 9.5 out of 10. why minus 0.5? Probably Final Boss has HUGGGEEEE LEARNING CURVE MOVESET, and goodluck with that fellow virtual Shinobis out there.

Plastic-face remastered characters left a bitter taste in my mouth,
anyway who am i to judge? it's free with Season pass on AC: Odyssey + BAFTA Sales anyway.
do yourself a favor and play the Original AC III instead.

Soundtrack, cinematic cutscenes and Gameplay are the only positive factors on AC III at least for me, since Ubi screwed up storyline ending when they see potential money-making-franchise and released it annually right until AC Syndicate.

Terribly shame it was turned into experimental RPG Mechanics game, different team producer, and different OST composer after AC III, which won't be able to keep up promise on 2007 "We will making it Trilogy Game" and maintained cliffhanging ending since AC III and later on.

terribly lazy remastered, if you're not believing me, you can easily look up candyland comparison video on his youtube channel first, just like my friend suggesting me, then played the game and sees pretty character details turned into horrible plastic nightmare...

Done RE 2 Remake on Hardcore mode difficulty, not as hard as RE 2 Classic 1998. Easily one of the best 3rd person survival horror game genre on early 2019, with dumbed down puzzles and removed tank control movement. Capcom just did it again, plus with upcoming free story DLCs planned ahead.

Trivia Spoiler:

Completed no Normal mode w/Veteran Setting, still it will be easy for newcomer.
What a good game that is, remind me glory age of 2D-Side-Scroller action genre back with NES 90's
~don't worry about bossfight it has blind sector and easy to remember pattern
~that Pumping Retro Soundtrack tho... keep you engaging gameplay
~Switchable characters gameplay later on stage 2 and above
~Dev by IGA, senior Dev who created Castlevania: SOTN game

having noted that, it's a steal with that price and nostalgic 2D side scroller game at its best!

After logged more than 140hrs using GreatSword, changing my weapon to ChargeBlade
best decision gameplay style ever

noted that i'm decline using Long Sword as it feel too light and already using that style for more than 300-400hrs on PSP and 3DS era lmao

i'm just 20Hrs playthrough just acquired lordvessel for Firelink Shrine, this has much YES and NO.. i just want to point as Neutral (Between Recommended and not recommended), pro and cons encountered as follows:

-Bugs still exist when you defeated smough on 1st phase, Ornstein on 2nd phase charge you toward Gwn Statue, then He got stuck inside Gwyn Statue... ridiculous.. can't even progress unless warping back to last bonfire.
-Chain backstab on PvP inluding not limited to when you're entering Boss area (fogwall), Weird Invader still can backtab you will entering fog animation....sigh..
-gameplay still felt the same (inlcuding blightown 60fps)
-lag input and hitbox register wayy more than 5 meters from invader
-Should've been free with DS PTDE owner, not charge by $20 for 4K reso and HD Textures patch.
-Forget about textures, Animation still 100% Same
-Knight Lautrec escaped by Himself... idk how..
-Had some problem with my online friend for Jolly Co-op, using password 4-5 times sign unable to be seen, within 15 mins only 1-2 times successful co-op attempt.
- PvP seems not balance unlike its Successor (DS II, DS III)

+Solid 60 FPS playthrough including Blightown poisonuous fest area
+Online Revitalised
+HD textures can only be seen by zoom in to character details, when from distant still look blurry just like DS1 PTDE
+Still fun on Jolly Co-op,

All in all this is still DS PTDE, exact game only patch for HD Textures and Solid 60FPS not even remastered, more like DS PTDE HD Version.

will update soon after defeating Lord Gwyn? depends...

Recommended if you're never playing DS 1 PTDE yet for $40

protip: savedata can be backup manually, just in case your save data corrupted, just Copy/Paste savedata outside the savedata folder.

+The game which inspired and influencing next upcoming JRPG back then (Golden Sun, Golden Sun The Lost Age on GBA)
+Storyline and Plot Twist unpredictable unlike generic storyline which 'Light banish darkness' (if you get me bruh)
+Battle OST and Summon's effect.

- End game battle probably will get you frustation if you're below LVL60 (no final weapons, improper materia fitted, no healing items/status) be ready for 2-3 Hours long Fight end GAME!!!!
-unskippable Summon Cutscene (Ayyyyyyyy)
-a bit hard to selecting target while battle camera aligned your heroes on 20 degrees vertically.
-prepare to watch PLUTO Planet destroy 7-10 times on Final Fight!!!
-[Technical Problem] Game forced crash to desktop when end game cutscene/credit finished playing (idk y) back you to final save on North Cave (if you use crystal save)

Nevertheless of all these, Game still Masterpiece and Fun to be play even on 2018!

-it started out nice and end abruptly..
-having watch many movies and game cutscenes helping me to predict the ending..
-easily disturbed?? maybe i'm just another soulless guy who cant grasp the 'feels' of the ending..

+Normal VN without unnecessary japanese FanService
+Good to play if you're having depression in your life hahha
+Freeware

I had to nominated this game for "The Even Better Than I Expected"
back then when this game announced at E3, i admit i had 0 interest.
But what pique my interest? The Guy (Director), Ashraf Ismail / Jean Guesdon, both originally worked on AC Black Flag working on this game...

for me why not?
Guy claimed it has Witchery 3 Feels....... YES
Assassin's Instagram..... YES
Microtransaction.... YIKESS (but you can ignore it 100% as it use for skipping RPG level grinding)
Simplify Parkour..... YES (no more backjumping eject while climbing)
Optimization..... Erghh UbiKiev (Alexandria Micro stutter and demanding PC, GTX1070 and above for YEZZ)
Story.... (Still Progressing.... personally greater than both Unity/Syndicate combine (for now))
Gameplay mechanics.... Amazing (although it has bugs, hope they can patch it later on)
Combats.... For Honor Style (DEEEUUUSSS VULLLTTT) (take sometime to get used to, but it's good in their on way)
Egypt.... Woahhh (Beautiful + Amazing landscape, makes me want to upload to my instagram)
PhotoMode... NICEEE (Focus mode enhance your photo quality just like DSLR cam effect)
Camel... Anta want bebsi ya Akhi???

Conclusion: AC Origins borrowing a lot of The Withcer 3 Mechanics, especially on RPG parts, crafting, but plus with leap of faith, hidden blade, and of course, its Creed. slow start but after 5 hours in-game turned out to be amazing as it is.
