A very enjoyable title from the RGG/Yakuza series, it of course revolves around Kiryu living a 2nd life as per agreement at the end of Yakuza 6, this is a nice tie in with the next Ichiban game as it happens during the first one, which leads to them both in the next title.

This game is what you expect from a Yakuza game, however be warned this is shorter than the other titles, some things are missing, however the Racing game is back. Which will take a bit of time to farm the extras for your track car to be up to snuff for the top tier races.

The graphics are up to date, the engine is performs extremely well, some nice reflection effects show in game. This will add to your enjoyment of the title. I won't go into the story much as people want to enjoy that without spoilers.

The install size is large, I wish they would have offered the Infinite Wealth demo as a DLC to cut the majority of the download, but at least you can test out the next Ichiban game before buying.

Overall 8.5/10 - again I just wish there was more to do in the game, more side quests or mini-games would have been good, the full motion video hostess club probably added more giggage to the install size too, and to be honest it was a bit weird to have that after years of rendered girls, but still enjoyable.

I would wait until the price comes down, because that is where the 1.5 score lost comes from, the price for the content you got is a bit steep.

One thing is first, lets get it out the way, yes I wish the male character was more male looking, but that is where the negatives end. Harvestella is an enjoyable title, it has some nice farm elements we all love, combined with an RPG element, think of it as Square RPG meets Stardew/Story of Seasons.

You will find a lot of negativity coming from people who have never played it, bought it and refunded it to put up a negative review because of that first point I made (or the anti-denuvo parade). I would ignore that and get this for what it is an enjoyable experience with a good story behind it.

You will be guaranteed at least 50 hours of story, with a few extra for farming and side quests.

Nothing much to say about this title, only that it should be in your list, such a great series and the final game didn't leave a sour taste in the mouth like most other finales do.

Go play it now, enjoy the ride.

Not much I can say about this game that most people do not know, it is a classic tale, that is guaranteed to make you cry no matter how macho you think you are. Will withstand the test of time.

This should be in your collection.

Ignore the rage fueled repetetive excuses from the Reddit crowd. There is nothing wrong with the game for most people, it is running fine for myself... some people may have some driver issues or at least are not making sure their PC is in good condition... you will be surprized the lack of users who actually defragment their HDDs etc.

So far I am happy with the game, the voice acting is excellent as per usual, and there is plenty to do and find, I will say people may prefer to use a controller over the keyboard and mouse... as the batmobile is a bit tricky to control without one.

So buy it when it comes back up for sale, ignore the refunders... who are ignorant of how hard it is to make something 100% compatible on the PC market when it comes to high end specs needed. Also blame the beta testers who didn't even beta test properly and just wanted to play the game.

Either way if you get it and its not 100% don't worry it will be fixed on. Seems people forgot Skyrim, Fallout 3, etc which all had problems from day 1... welcome to the PC market.

This is a good example of a unique game example from many years ago, ok the the graphics are now outdated but the game mechanics and tactics still seem fresh.

Basically the game premise is simple, take control of various entities of hauntings and scare the hell out of people so they leave the area.

But you have to find entities along your travels as you haunt locations to bolster your ranks, and you can only control as much entities as your feter power allows so some thinking is required.

And to scare the hell out of people, you have to tether your entity to it's type, for instance entities that use power and electricity have to be tethered to electrical items such as TVs, Hoovers etc. Fire types can obviously be tethered to fire items, like cookers, barbecues and so on.

It gets more complicated when you realize that people have different fears and are immune to specific hauntings, so then you have to get them to a room where you can haunt them, and that is easier said than done.

Ignore the 0.4 hours played, I have played this title retail many years ago and for some reason Steam didn't log the 30 hours I put in to it. Besides it is an enjoyable game and not an expensive one, I would recommend picking this up along with Evil Genius if you can, that is also a great game.

Nothing like running around a Sandbox world helping people or being a pain in the ass, for that lovely gold!

Well worth it to be in your collection.

Great game, not as wonderful as the original Deus Ex, but very very close. A must have for your collection.
