After hearing of a reformation not too long ago, I decided to give No Man's Sky a shot. Immediately, I am introduced with spectacular mechanics and logical steps to complete absolutely anything. This, combined with the amazing detail of the planet and its creatures add a very good amount of immersion to the game, and is what hooked me to continue playing..

At 30 hours in (which flies by in an instant) I am simply addicted. Exploring a vast array of new solar systems, environments, creatures, materials, upgrades, problem solving, challenges and visual beauty amongst many other elements (no pun intended) became my motivation to sink 150 hours in both by myself and with friends. This, by the way, is before the numerous updates this game has gotten in the meantime after I stopped playing. I will no doubt re-visit this game soon to see what further content beholds me.

Overall, I would highly recommend No Man's Sky. If you are sceptical because of its past, give it another shot. I promise you will not be disappointed!

Sniper Elite 4 includes stunning graphics, but also some of the best combat I have seen. The x-ray cutscene I was presented with after every single kill never got boring, and really did accentuate every single attack method possible, which really enhanced the experience.

SE4 includes many playstyles, all of which must be harnessed to progress at all. This game forces you to think and play in a more different way than other classic third person shooters, by adding elements such as stealth and planning, as well as quick thinking, rather than just run shoot and kill. These are vital for the completion of almost every level and reinforce the realism that it tries to portray.

Overall, Sniper Elite 4 is a great game which, although long and sometimes frustrating, makes you feel meaningful and rewards you based on your performance.

Very enjoyable game, that incorporates great graphics, a great story line and continuation from the previous title, as well as a wide range of options for customizability and exploration, since even after the main campaign ends a ton more can be completed. This includes activities such as raiding tombs, completing missions / quests and upgrading guns to their full extent.

Now, I can't give an accurate opinion on this game without the Baba Yaga DLC and every single other DLC (aside from clothing), as I purchased the 20th anniversary edition which includes all of these. Needless to say, Rise of the tomb raider seems a lot more fun and challenging with the DLC included, especially extra lands and levels such as Baba Yaga, therefore I would recommend you to buy that version of the game only, as the DLC isn't that worth it for the price you are paying. There were also a couple of bugs, mainly cutscene bugs, that seemed overlooked in some of the DLC levels. However, the main story was thankfully lacking in that department.

Overall, this game is incredible and grasped my attention again after I strayed away from it a bit. Everything seemed like a challenge and as such, you are rewarded for your actions which definitely implored me to keep playing and complete this extra part, or that extra part, etc. Not that surprised at how good ROTTR is, considering those before it were also phenomenal.

Far Cry Primal had me bored within 15 hours of playtime. Until I gave it another shot.

I missed the breathtaking graphics and pre-historic environments, the people that give meaning to Oros and the Wenja tribe, as well as the missions and gameplay that contribute to the diversity of it. There is something satisfying about obtaining resources, that lead you to expand and grow your arsenal and the tools in your hazardous life.

I love this game and I reccommend everyone to give it a chance, because it took me a while to realise that it is worth your time.

**IF YOU ARE GOING TO TAKE ANYTHING FROM THIS REVIEW, IT IS THAT CHOICES MATTER!!**

# PROS & CONS #

-Pros

At first, this game didn't really click with me. I lost interest for about 3 months, after 8 hours played. But then I gave it another chance, and over time I became more intrested with the story and everyone as a character. And boy, am I glad I started playing it again. Just like a book, you need to read to a further extent to make a descision about if you like it or not....and boy am I glad I kept going with it. This is one of my favourite and most enjoyable games I have ever played. The music, fightning style and MOST importantly the story choices are what make it. For this money, you really get more bang for your buck.

Cons:

-The objects and how Geralt moves on them seems very arcadey, and can sometimes get buggy,
the map's route is also a bit all over the place sometimes.

-Roach, Geralt's horse is the dumbest AI ever

-Sometimes on rare occasions cutscenes don't trigger but only very slightly in the game.

(If you arn't happy with the ending you got, you can always go back to an earlier save so MAKE SURE TO SAVE YOUR GAMES MANUALLY ESPECIALLY IN KAER MORHEN!)

# Overall #

Probably up there with Bioshock Infinite, Witcher 3 makes me emotional, sad, happy and feel a great deal of love for all the characters. You see, in this game you don't choose who you are, becuase you are already Geralt. This is great because you get to know him for who he is as the story progresses. My favourite place to go in the Witcher 3 is definately Skellige. It has a touch of Scotland, and even though I don't come from Scotland myself, the music and the scenery is just beautiful.


I would ABSOLUTELY reccommend this game if you want an action packed and very descisive story line.

CDProjekt Red really gave us an amazing game. THIS IS WHAT AAA GAMES NOWADAYS SHOULD BE LIKE!! No wonder it got game of the year....

This was one of the best games I have played.

Metro: Last light seems to follow similar blueprints to another amazing historic game: Half life 2. I think the team at Deep Silver have executed this very well. From the many hazourdous elements to it, or the great storyline. Throughout the game, you establish a deep connection with all the people / beings in it, no matter if they are good or evil, ou are able to understand them really well. Because of this, I felt like I was Artyom, and I felt like I knew his past, even though I had barely touched on it. My favourite part was when all the soldiers salute you, and the Dark one waves away.
