I have really mixed feelings about this game, but I'd still recommend to play it. Game isn't hard, but it's challenging at most times. Also, don't make a mistake - this is not an RPG, there are no complicated dialogues, roleplay or high level of world interaction. This is a 3rd person fighter. With builds, number crunching and broad selection of weapons.

+ Combat system. Hitting somebody with a sword feels incredibly satisfying. The sound it makes, blood splatters and overall the feeling of it is great indeed. I spent about 6 hours just farming Lothric Knights, because of how fun it was.
+ Gear viability and variety. You can use almost anything and be able to complete the game with it. Starting weapons can be as powerful, as boss loot.
+ Build variety. You can mix a lot of things and create different builds. You can specialize or be a hybrid and still be viable.
+ Character customisation is pretty damn good. Requires a bit of knowledge, but options are quite flexible. You just have to put some effort into it.
+ Animation is great. Be it emotes or combat actions.
+ RPG elements.
+ Sounds are awesome.

- As somebody who plays as a mage in every game possible, I'm sad to say that magic in this game is terrible. Not spells but the core mechanics of magic. Lack of passive FP regeneration might turn game into a boring slog. And reliance on flasks might get you stuck in the middle of the area. Always carry some melee weapon with you and avoid going pure caster if you're playing this game for the first time.
- Covenant system is garbage.
- Graphics. Well, game can look pretty sometimes, but most of the time it will look kinda dated. More like 2010 game, rather than 2016 game.
- Camera. Here we go. The most rage-inducing, horrible and disgusting thing in this game - camera. Often switches to weird angles, makes enemies transparent, obstructs your vision and stuff. Man, I can even explain how much I hate camera in this game. It's awful, it's a crime against humanity, screw it.
- UI. Honestly, having a health bar for half of your screen is kinda....eeeehh. I prefer minimalistic UI in games and this game made my OCD trigger during every combat encounter.
-Lack of aestetical consistiency. Some enemies, clothing and weapons look out of place. Some textures are pretty new, some textures look like they are ripped out of DS1, which looks jarring.
Main story is poorly written and delivered, albeit kinda interesting, sidestories are kinda vague and you'll fail like 90% of them during your first playthrough. Don't worry, this game has NG+. You will catch everything up later.

Game is deeply flawed, uninspired at times and borderline bad, but you will forgive it just for its melee combat.

Game is absolutely beautiful. I mean, in every way possible.
+ Good visuals. I played on ultra, despite having old rig and still there was no moment, when I suffered from stuttering or fps drops.
+ Well optimised, as stated before.
+ Story is not very original, but still interesting. And there is some sort of codex, where you can listen to dialogues, read lore, notes about guns and other stuff.
+Music. Oh, the sound is great. Perfect for slicing demons in half.
+A lot of new weapons. You can swap them around, change their properties (like adding elemental damage, life drain, chi drain, bonus damage against certain types of enemies, ammo conservation for firearms and more).
+Humour.
+Powers. At first there are small amount of cards, which represent your upgradable powers, but later you'll unlock a lot of new stuff.
+Highest difficulty is good for hardcore players. A lot of suffering. At least first 80% of the game. Later maxing certain upgrades will remove your main cause of death.
+Multiplayer. Finally!

-New "roommate" is kinda annoying and can't handle backtalking.


Shadow Warrior 3. When?

I'll be comparing it to Borderlands 2 and list cons and pros here.

+Lazers (but it's kinda clunky in use and not really interesting)
+Cryo weapons (fun)
+Glitched (DLC) mechanics is great and should be added/expanded in any way in Borderlands 3
+You got to see what happend before Jack went nuts and story shows you a different perspective.

-Game is short. About 8-10 hours short if you skip most side quests.
-Writing is so bad it hurts.
-Where's all the humour?! It's gone!
-Classes are so immesurably boring after Borderlands 2. After Krieg or Gage the only interesting dude here is...a robot. But it's mostly for coop play. So out of all characters only Wilhelm and Fragtrap are somewhat okay-ish in terms of skill trees. Athena is really well balanced, but boring in terms of gameplay. Also, she's like Roland, but female. I wanted to say "she has the same boring personality that Rolad possess", but you can't use "Roland" and "personality" in the same sentence.
-Season pass is a cash grab. Buy it only on discount.
-Unlockable skins and heads are quite bland. Default heads are the best.
-Also a couple of words about car controls and quests with time limits: they ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ suck ♥♥♥♥ ass ♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥ the ♥♥♥♥ who even came up with that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥ idea that it would be great??!

You should give this game a try, but only when it's on a discount. For a full price? NO.



P.S. Sums up my experience with Claptastic DLC: http://steamproxy.net/profiles/76561198003838639/screenshot/200804344080351901

Okay, after seeing the last DLC and considering this game is complete now, I absolutely can't recommend it.
Bethesda made a very controversal game. While they've improved the gunplay, visuals and some parts of gameplay (like adding settlement building and stuff), but they totaly forgot what fallout was about. It was an rpg with shooter elements, not the other way around. Now it's a mix of half-assed building, shooter and...no, I can't even say that there are rpg elements. You'll have to seek them with a microscope.
Dialogue system looks like in ME, but badly handled. You can't show your character using dialogue options. You can only say "yes", "no" (yes),sarcasm (not funny joke; also makes an NPC to repeat his question), and obscured "next" option. Doesn't matter if you're a bloodthisty raider, or a last hope of humanity - your answers are the same.
Building and settlement - I don't even know how to comment on this. System is messed up and doesn't allows anything really complicated or interesting and object limits only make it worse.
Most of quest are boring, repetitive and doesn't make you to even slightly care for caracters. Well, maybe Nick and Cait have more or less interesting backgrounds, but that's it.
Factions unappealing and sometimes don't make any sense. Also they don't explain a lot of important stuff and you have no way to understaing what are you fighting for.

Weapon upgrade system is good, but could be better. Most of time you just need to pick up upgrades at the bottom of the list and that's all. I wish more weapon were upgradeable in the same way as plasma pistol ( you can make a shotgun, a sniper rifle, an assault rifle or a plasmathrower out of it).

Power armour system is really cool. A lot of custumization options.
But that's pretty much it.

+Touching story
+Gore
+Interesting skill system
+Weapon variety and upgrades
+Jokes and puns

-Shadow Warrior 2 isn't out yet

This is still the best post-apocalyptic RPG to date.

Groooooovy!
