Everyone else is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ about UI which is awful now but besides that it's become as poorly optimized as every other AAA release. Asset streaming means you load in and everything is a pudgy blob, if you manage to load in with a CPU 3x as strong as what they manage to recommend rather than just crashing your whole PC, and if you manage to have the patience to wait three to five minutes for the game to even load.

Rather than make a sequel game, they revamped an old one to be worse in just about every way. The gunplay is still nice, and I like the bullet drop to be quite honest, but between garbage hud, unacceptable performance, and battlepasses punishing you for not spending all your time with them jumping through whatever stupid hoops they've set up for the next sixty days, I have decided it was a mistake to reinstall.

It is 2022 and this game is still $60. The worst Souls game, streamlined with its 70% equip burden fast-paced rolls for the casual audience who can't dodge with fat rolls, bosses that are tuned to this singular playstyle in mind with zero consideration for the fact it's an RPG with different options available to people, sterilized with a pasty, ashy, monotonous environment, rehashed characters, uninteresting and often outright bad equipment, awful magic, generic Two Steps from Hell tier soundtrack, and the most painful levels in the series. Sixty smackeroos. No.

Most Souls games have an experience that can be one way or another defined as "sucks." But it's a good kind of suck. In Demon's Souls, I like the way the Valley of Defilement sucks. I am terrified of genuinely exploring Tomb of the Giants in Dark Souls to this day. Having to switch weapons because your current one is about to break in Dark Souls 2 and using multiple weapons against different kinds of enemies is a slog that is made better by playing better. Absolutely nothing about Farron Swamp is ever worth your precious time upon this Earth, even if you were to quickstep through it all. It is not a good suck. It is not even that hard. Not even the cool weapon you get for killing the boss there is worth the effort of having gone through that awful place, because it's ultimately painfully mediocre in most situations, not even amazing in the situations where you'd want to use it, and you're better off with your Longsword. Even what others think to be "better" levels like Cathedral of the Deep are filled with gotchas and overstay its welcome. And of course, being the most linear game in the series since Demon's Souls, you can't just not go there or do a quest to find a way to skip the worst parts. Every character, every playthrough, every build, every NG+, you must do every single mediocre level you'd rather not do because unless it's a dead-end, it's mandatory.

It might feel alright on your first playthrough with nostalgia of the series, but has proven to be an awful game to replay because very few things in this game feel good. Unless, of course, the only fun part of difficulty for you is the little ribbon you get for winning, and absolutely everything else along the way doesn't matter to you. I have not beaten all the bosses in this game; I have not even attempted Midir. Why would I want to? The experience will be just watching the boss do all the cool stuff while I just watch and wait to hit him twice, like every other "hard" boss in the game, or dare I say, franchise. If you wanted to play Souls games because you heard they were hard, congrats, you found the rotting, festering corpse. Grab a stick, two hand it, and press R1 twice before rolling away.

If I want a good Souls game, I play Dark Souls. If I want an action game that is actually hard, I play Monster Hunter. Unfortunately, if I want to play modded Souls games, I have to deal with Dark Souls 3 because modders use it as the platform of choice for most big projects. That's the one bone I will throw this awful game, until people get to work on Elden Ring.

Approximately 550 of these hours were as the Unfallen. In the past 4 hours of gameplay, I've destroyed ten Craver planets, terraformed twenty of my planets into forests, and I plan on restoring those planets I blew up and turning them into forests when I finally get over there with my vines. There will be peace and harmony, but there will be no room for Termites. This is a strat I've only recently developed, and I think with another 40 hours I can figure out how to improve it to faster facilitate the extermination of Cravers from the face of the universe.

Everything good in this game you can get off the Internet, namely the soundtrack, visuals, and assets (which I believe they let you use for modding in other games for free? Or just Witcher 2 assets). I tried refunding but because I sat on this game for months before trying it, they wouldn't let me refund it. Its main character is awful, the combat is clunky, and it leans way too hard on the "sex sells" idea to the point where they shove naked girls at you in the first cutscene. It's heavyhanded cringe and turned me off on the game very hard. By the end of the tutorial when I beat the Griffin, there were no characters I ever cared about and I felt no motivation to continue.

My greatest regret is not refunding this game sooner. CDPR shouldn't have gotten my money, especially since they put out that garbage Cyberpunk game using that money.

I beat it in one sitting and it was a blast. Interesting weapon design; don't underestimate some weapons, aside from the starter few. Even the paint guns are useful, just tag somebody with the revolver paint gun and you get bonus meter so you can Arsenal Blast more, which is super useful for clearing objectives quicker. Really well balanced, lots of secrets. Wonderful game. I'd play it more right now if I didn't have to sleep.
Also it's full of silly ♥♥♥♥.

Bethesda removed the entry of the original Skyrim version in order to get you to buy this version. While that would imply that the older version doesn't have Bethesda's support (which is the case), this version doesn't have Bethesda's support either. The Script Extender for the old version, necessary for hundreds of mods in the old game, was made with assistance and correspondence with Bethesda. Bethesda has refused to help those devs when it came time to rewrite it for this new version. Without that, it is difficult for PC users to get any mods that console users couldn't have. When you have things like SkyUI, the obligatory PC HUD overhaul, requiring an SKSE that won't come out, it's not worth the effort.

Oh, here's the link to the original Skyrim store page, so you can buy that instead:

Were you looking to bathe in blood and fury? You've come to the right place. Hotline Miami is a game where you can sweep out an entire building of people in about two minutes and get your rampage playstyle called "GENERIC".

The gameplay is vicious. It takes some getting used to; the reticle moves with your character, you will always aim at the same spot on the SCREEN, not the map. With time, you'll grow to get used to it. Before long, you'll be stringing together twelve kills in a row, blasting 6 people with your shotgun, throwing it at someone, punching their friend, stomp both their heads in, and then rushing around the corner to gun down two more, kick open a door, blast the guy farthest away, and then kill the last guy with the message of "GO TO CAR" your sign to calm the ♥♥♥♥ down, you bloodthirsty animal.

There's secrets aplenty to be found. Not only can you discover things such as aditional masks that are either purely for fun or offer different playstyles, but you find things such as newspaper clippings showing what the latest headlines are, and mysterious letters in the form of purple pellets on the ground that are used to solve the puzzle in the start menu. Collect them all and solve the scramble, and something happens... brilliant, right?

Here's the obligatory paragraph on how awesome the soundtrack is. I mean, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. How does it even exist? If you've heard the soundtrack you know what I'm talking about, if you somehow haven't then actually don't listen it, just play the game and let it be the cheering crowd as you tear people to shreds because a guy on the answering machine told you to.

There's some glitches here and there, mostly relating to the dogs. It's amazing at everything it does. You might not like a level or two, but that will not stop you from having a 10/10 experience with any other level in the game.

The only excuses for not having this game are "I don't want to give money to Valve" and "I am waiting for the sale because I didn't have two dollars during the 2015 Summer Sale." This game is worth more than $15, but feel free to wait for a sale.

Very addicting. It's like A Link to the Past, except without the puzzles, and with more gameplay options. However, Energy is annoying.
