This game is incredible, I see people saying the game isn't balanced right for two players but my friend and I made it to the end on every single run we played and even won one. And we were both playing mage on the one we won. Team composition doesn't seem as important as synergy between each other's builds. We were constantly moving bad guys around and detonating bombs to stun and hurt them. I can't recommend this game more than enough. It's challenging, has 5 classes, and a lot of rewards. It is basically co op slay the spire with more tactical combat.

At 55 hours in, I absolutely love this game. I am hopelessly addicted to collecting resources and crafting things. The Combat also is not as bad as some reviewers said, but it does depend on which weapon you use. If you like crafting with a deep progression system that keeps you coming back for more this is the MMO for you. Don't let review bombers stop you from enjoying this game, there is a reason it averages almost 800k players at a time.

As far as PVP is concerned, I have only played around with it a little bit at this point so I don't have much to say about it yet, but I am stoked to participate in one of the wars at some point.

I bought this game back in 2011 on a whim, in fact it was the first game I ever bought on my Steam account just after building my first gaming PC. I knew nothing of the world of the Witcher, I didn't even know the game was based off of a book series. I randomly stumbled upon it and decided "why not, it's on sale". I instantly fell in love with the world of The Witcher, the lore, the monsters, the odd things I had never seen in any other game. At first I likened Geralt of Rivia to a Medieval Jedi from the powers I saw in the game. Over time Geralt has become one of my favorite fantasy characters of all time. I am glad that I took a chance on this game, I bought the second game a couple years later when it was on sale, and by the time the third came around I preordered it. I simply cannot get enough of this world. The things you do in this game also carry over to the the second game, and again things you did in the first and second game carry over to the third.

CDProjektRed is unlike any other developer I have ever seen, they deliver on their promises and then some. So if you are a die hard fan of the books, or have just gotten your first taste of The Witcher with the recent Netflix series I recommend this game to you. It may feel a bit dated now with the graphics, and a lot of people find the combat to be a bit strange. But I promise if you stick to it you will be rewarded with an amazing experience that you will never forget.

Absolutely love this game. It is a Paradox game so be prepared to pay for the DLC if you want the full experience. But you can get the DLC on sale for a relatively cheap price most of the time.

Such a shame, this game could have and should have been the best Dawn of War to date. But poor decisions by the developer have made it into a shallow husk of what it could be. The fact that they have now completely given up on it, will not release the planned DLCs, and will not update it anymore means I could never recommend this to anyone. Rather than stick with it and release updates to fix the valid complaints of the playerbase, they chose the easy way out. Just forget about it.

The graphics are great, the visuals of the 40k universe are realized in glorious high definition. The Moba like gameplay leaves you wondering what they where thinking. I wanted to like this game as I am a fan of the 40k universe, but it just isn't there. I will go back to playing DOW 1 and 2. It is probably cheap enough now that you could buy it and check it out without spending a lot, but it is basically a waste of money at this point.

Early Access Review
Wow this game is awesome, I love it, everything from the dark themed art style and the cool looking characters to the weapons you can use to customize your selected hero. It is still in Beta so pvp match making is a bit shakey and can sometimes be hard to find a match. But this is a pretty unique take on the Moba genre, it feels like I am playing a dunger crawler mixed with a Moba. I get a Champions of Norath feel from it.

I have to admit at first I was not going to buy this game, and I only bought it because it grants Doom Beta Access. But I am very glad that I did, this game is very good and it reminds me of the days where shooters actually where challenging, you know before they started making health be a recharging red screen. I most definetely recommend this game. The only issues I am finding is that the game can run a bit jerky at times and there can be some texture pop in. I have read online that many other people with high end machines are also experiencing this. My personal score for Wolfenstein: The New Order would be a solid 8.5/10. It is a very good game, and the setting is one of the most intriuging settings I have ever played in. I feel that fans of the old Wolfenstein games should have no problem feeling at home with this game. The AI can be a bit blind at times, and most of the time the AI completely ignores the piles of Nazi corpses in the halls. If you are thinking about getting this game, do it, go kill thos damn Nazis!!!!!
