Spider-Man Spider-Man
Does it better on PC than playstation 5 can
Swing around really fast
Webslinging is truly a blast
LOOK OUT!
Here comes the Spider-Man!

Is he strong?
Listen bud
He's got radioactive blood
Can he swing from a thread?
Take a look overhead
Hey, there
There goes the Spider-Man

In the chill of night
At the scene of a crime
Like a streak of light
He arrives just in time

Spider-Man, Spider-Man
Friendly neighborhood Spider-Man
Wealth and fame
He's ignored
Action is his reward
Look out
Here comes the Spider-Man

It's in your head. You are welcome!

A fabulous story couple with a stunning aesthetic and finished with a sublime soundtrack, easily one of the best games and surprises of the year.

I really enjoyed this game, so much so I played it twice. It's hard but not too hard, the balance is right, you can increase the difficulty with potions or by not upgrading. The simple matching mechanics are spot on. Very polished, no breaking bugs encountered. Solid game.

Why there isn't a fully fledged pirate game, expanded, that uses this engine with updated graphics is beyond me. The final and greatest AC there has been thus far and possibly ever will be.. only thing that sucks about this is poor pc optimization, I still get stutters and frame drops with a 1080TI + 2700x + 32gb 3333mhz .. wtf.

I used to love this franchise, I gave this version 156 hours of my life.. I wish I could get 153 of them back.. then refund this POS where it belongs.

Just play Civ 5.. it's pretty much how people compared Morrowind (civ5) to Oblivion (civ6).

It could of been great, but I have no idea what the hell and how much the reviewers from legit gaming sites came to such high scores. Unless that is, they were completely new to the franchise and or turn-based strategy. Just walk away.

The current steam badge promotion was the last nail in my motivation to write a review for this open-world sandbox RPG, near masterpiece. Having a huge backlog has prevented me from playing this game until recently and now that I have, I am sad that I waited. Once I saw it on sale for 19.99 for the complete edition, that was enough to make me jump in feet first. It also does not hurt that I a make an effort to collect and play the vast majority of overwhelmingly positively reviewed games and this so happens to be among the elite. With that said lets proceed..

Gameplay: 8.5/10 - This game, along with most 3rd person games, is best played with a controller, I prefer an xbone controller but YMMV. PC purists be damned, I am a pc purist, and it's just more engaging, easier, and overall more comfortable to be played with a decent dual-stick analog controller. Each button is perfectly placed and is fully utilized on said xbone controller. Once you get the hang of the physics and combat engine, it pretty much plays like a grounded assassins creed/batman arkham series game. Counters, crossbows, swords, axes, magic, bombs, all work together in a seamless orchestra of monster-killing mayhem. You can pretty much tailor your character to playing a certain class be it, mage, warrior, etc. but it requires points through levling and points found throughout the world in the form of places of power to fully realize any class base. So take it as Geralt is, a warlock, a spellsword. A jack-of-all trades, a master of three things, vagina (plenty of sexual situations), monster slaying, and a quaint yet highly engaging/engrossing collectable in-game, card game called Gwent. Which as far as I know has evolved into something grander and played online as well. I find myself always looking for new matches, repeat matches, and playing wherever and whenever I can in the game. The A.I. is tough but fair and you will develop new strategies by repeat failures and victories. A keystone of any great card game. I find the combat engaging and although it is repetetive, the variations between potions, the monsters, bombs, etc. all help it to remain fresh throughout the full course of the game, one that I have 184 hours in, haven't beaten, is still in Skellige and still has 2 expansions to do. I am a completionist though, so you can expect at least 160 hours with both expansions with small side-quest exploration and a "normal" sense of exploration. As I stated, I am completionist, so I visit and do EVERYTHING, so again, expect great value for any price really even upwards to 59.99. I rarely say that about any game, so for what it is worth coming from a gaming veteran of 30 years take that as you may. Back to the topic, the thing that makes up for all of the game's, "short-comings," is it's beyond-the-pale story-writing and fully voiced voice acting. Heavily drawn from the books and a lovingly respect from Polish culture, this story plays out in an interwoven tale of humanity, fantasy, fiction and non-fiction. All without butting heads with one another. A story that quickly sucked me in, being that I am American, one part because it was foreign, but also because it was so familiar. Something similar in reference to The Wolf Among Us, where the setting and telling of the story was so radically different yet you connected to it because it was still so familiar, and that is in no small part to the stellar writing being used here. Then there are the quests, and the quests that open because of that quest, and then the world is changed because you made x decision on that quest. I love stuff like that. Where you expect a finite quest and then wait... there's more! Now, there are valid complaints with the game itself but mostly cosmetic but they need discussed regardless. I will touch more upon them in upcoming review categories as that is when they are more applicable. * more to come soon* thanks for reading and I hope you decide to jump in.

Instigated a riot by a lack of restrooms.
10/10 would remove toilets again.
