Hades II feels like a genuine evolution of the original's gameplay. Movement and combat feel tight and familiar, but trying to play this game like the original only leads to ruin.

This sequel immediately has more depth and systems than Hades. It's been a blast discovering all the new ways to battle through the hordes of the underworld.

Fun, funny, and fair. Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor is a great game that balances relaxing/casual with challenge and reward.

Amazing version of pure Tetris wrapped in an audio/visual synaesthesia that both alleviates my anxiety and pushes my motivation forward in a way that usually requires medication from my doctor and friend around the corner.

This is a really solid single player FPS with solid gunplay, snappy movement/dodge abilities, and a combat system that blends guns, sword, and melee into a fun action experience. ⠀

Picked it up on sale for $15, but I got more than my moneys worth even at full price.

While I really like the aesthetic and concept of this game, there are some dealbreakers and red-flags I see very early on.

You can not customize your controls fully. Want to bind ANYTHING to the mousewheel up or down? Tough stuff, you can't.

The game throws you into a long and tedious tutorial that covers some very basic elements to the game, but it doesn't really give you context as to how those elements tie into the main game.

Upon finally reaching the main menu there are two red flags: the game IMMEDIATELY prompts you to spend money, again without context, just GIVE US YOUR MONEY ASAP.

Characters and classes are gated behind progression so I hope you like the starting class because that's all you get for a while.

This game has heart and there's probably solid gameplay burried in here under all the FreeToPlay garbage.

Missing some basic elements like customizable controls and access to more than one class (even in training), combined with the immediate and not so subtle push toward spending money BEFORE your first match are HUGE red flags for this title.

I really want to like this game, I'd actually pay for a version of this game without FreeToPlay elements and fully customizable mouse & keyboard controls.

Very fun, casual styled loot shooter. The art style is very safe, no gore or anything worse than you'd see in a cartoon. The shooting is very solid, the game gets better the more you play and unlock new weapons and power ups. Runs feel fair and balanced for the most part. It's an excellent time single player or in a group.

As of October 2020, it looks like the game scales linearly based on number of human players. I don't believe the game is as well balanced with a 4 stack of people at more than 10+ player levels apart. Not a deal breaker, this game is in development and sees regular updates.

The game nails the arcade action and feel of the original Mutant League Football from the Sega Genesis while modernizing the formula for modern gamers. The product is still very much in beta, there are plenty of spots that need polish. BUT if you're looking for a fun American Football game on the PC, you've come to the right place.
