One of the best open world games of 2022. Totally deserving of its GOTY (Game of the Year) Award. A good introduction to Souls like games if you have never played one. Easier than many of the previous Darksouls like games.

Amazing Strategy RPG, the game-play is addictive and building an army compossed of different units is great. The only negatives about the game is that the story is your typical "you are the chosen one, defeat the evil demon" narrative; replay-ability for this game is at most 2 or 3 times after that you've pretty much seen and done everything.

Regular community updates, constant feed back from the developers and addition of new and cut content that Bungie had in mind but removed because of console limitations at the time. This is the same Halo from before but with a lot more stuff, also Halo 3 now has mod tools and mods now so that's great.

DOOM 2016 meets Quake, a good modern "Boomer Shooter" that has great atmosphere as well as having little in game mechanics. Easy to learn, hard to master. Even comes with a custom in-game map creator.

Great game, although its not finished the first chapter is enough to show you how the game might feel when finished

Out of all the games on Steam and the wider gaming world, this is the only game I can think of that lets you play as Hitler and win .

3 hours in and what can I say the game plays like a regular visual novel but my god is the story great. If you're some one who likes your average visual novel, come and download this one, I assure you, you will be....enjoying it.

Great choices for the player to explore, has a good vibe and out of the 3 choices in the game that it gives you, there will be one TRUE ending and as far as I can tell you, the game will....well....lets just say the game....will....HELP you..... along the way, I'm sure you wont make the wrong mistake; trust me, you'll just be a bad person in the end.

Also play this game at night, it has a really cool mystery vibe, trust me.

Absolutely amazing DLC the creation of this is due to the fans wanting to play as a robotic empire and now we have it.

As far as I played just a bit of it, it adds in a huge amount of content for half the price of utopia.

This DLC is a must for anyone who wants to be a robotic empire and all the new mechanics like voice packs and new stories.

Stellaris is 4x strategy game/role-play game (believe it or not). The game in of it self has a tone of narrative (choice dialogues like the ones seen in RPGs), as most of the time you'll be reading text pop ups on the going on's of the galaxy (everything form pirates attacking you space stations, space dragons, to special events that tell you an asteroid will destroy a planet you own).

The strategy comes in the form of space battles with you building ship fleets as well as infantry to invade planets and take them over. As you could fight aliens of the same tech level as you or ancient empire who have ruled the galaxy for millions of years, Space federations (basically space U.N) or space beasts that can wreak your massive space armadas. The second part is managing planets and researching new tech along the way to bolster your production, like any strategy game, resources and tech is a must.

The role play part is making your empire, as you don't play as an individual character but as the entire empire itself. For example: want to be a fanatical religious space empire looking to wipe out all life, now you can; want to be a god emperor and subjugate all other empire into yours, yes you can; be a slaver empire and turn aliens into food and treat them like slaves, yep; want to be a cyber punk empire with cyborg humans with corporations running your empire, yes you can; or be a hive mind and assimilate all life into one mind, again yes. The possibilities are infinite.

The game offers a ton of replay ability as one complete game won't have everything, requiring you to play over and see everything, every new game is different from the last. The game has no story mode and is more or less you deciding how you want to make up your galaxy with any empire you create in that galaxy sandbox.

A well written and fleshed out game with a total of 10 (I think) different endings 5 good 5 bad. The character you play is a bit of a jerk at first and the charcters all have their quirks, but when you really get into the back ground of each charcters ( depending which one you want to get in a relationship with), you soon find out that everyone has emotional scars that make them who they are now, including the protagonist you play as. If you really want the full story of the male protagonist follow each relationship path and get an ending. Also get redy for the feels, this game can get really dark and emotionally exhausting at times.
