I had never played this type of game before, but I decided to give it a try since they added WASD movement. It feels somewhat like Dark Souls but offers a different perspective, with interesting and most importantly easy-to-understand skills tree and character progression overall. Gear is also important, and if you’re not playing in solo mode, you can trade items with other players to obtain exactly what you need for your unique build.

For an Early Access game, it’s remarkably good. The developers are attentive to player feedback and are making changes based on that input.

Satisfactory - it's when you want to add a single machine to automate something, and end up rebuilding your entire base for 10 hours for it to work efficiently.

Despite some people hating on this game developed by DICE, it has incredible visuals, a very satisfying feeling when using any weapons, and various abilities and modes to play. Although the player count is not very high, I had no issues finding a full lobby.

There is also a separate interesting solo campaign to complete. It's a great game for a Star Wars fan, and it always has a big discount during major Steam sales.

Exciting, extremely addicting and fun. Basically an unlimited content with constant in-game events. Still receiving updates in 2024. On sales it usually cost less than 2$, definitely worth buying.

Hard to learn and hard to master. Grand strategy at its finest.
The only downside is a huge amount of DLCs you have to buy to get a full game experience.

One of the best and funniest co-op games available on Steam

It was my first Monster Hunter game and it was interesting to play. Tracking monsters by gathering footprints, using environment around you to create traps, crafting items that can help and support you. At some point when monsters becoming faster and stronger it brings me vibes of Souls-like games, you have to dance with a monster by dodging their attacks and weaving your own combos in.

Each weapon has its own playstyle and skills. To master any of them you have to spend a lot of hours, but you have an area at the start of the game to test all of them for free to pick whatever looks and feels the best.

Whole game is basically about grind. You hunt monsters to get their materials to craft/upgrade new gear and weapons to be able to kill new, more powerful monster - this is your grind loop. Once you done with the story and you killed each monster, they have a "buffed" version of them that has more movement patterns and doing more damage.

End game is a special, large area with all bioms of this game mixed up where you can get new materials etc, basically just more grind to get even more powerful gear and weapons.
And of course raids (kind of like in MMORPG?) - huge monsters with game mechanics you have to learn about. To beat those you need best gear you can possibly grind out, but the rewards are insanely good - BiS gear and weapons in the entire game.

Downsides... uuh... Absolute garbage of UI, hard to sort items, hard to make presets of equipment and game does not even teach you about those. Also game can crash and freeze a lot, huge amount of graphical gliches (can mostly be fixed by 3rd party mods).

I am very disappointed with the optimization and graphics of this game. I was eagerly anticipating its release after watching the trailers and was expecting it to look amazing.

The game is riddled with bugs, has extremely bad optimization, and lacks content. It doesn't look great visually.

I strongly advise against purchasing this game at the moment. It feels unfinished and should not have been released yet.

Чудова оптимізація гри, цікавий сюжет, грав із задоволенням.
Мені сподобалася система крафта і модифікації різної зброї.

Остання місія виглядає просто неймовірно атмосферно і красиво.
Вельми сподобалось.

Відверто можу вам рекомендувати цю гру.

A fantastic game with an engaging story set in a near-future world. There are a huge number of non-playable characters (NPCs) that you can interact with, listen to, and immerse yourself in the same world with.

The game features a wide variety of weapons, body implants (such as the ability to jump twice, live longer, etc.), and character builds. Whether you want to play as a sniper, a ninja, a samurai, or a silent hacker, you can customize your character's abilities to suit your preferred playstyle.

The game runs smoothly and cleanly, even on lower-end PCs. While you may encounter some bugs or occasional crashes, overall, the game performs well compared to its state at release.
