Despite a short wish list of things that would improve it, Operation Wolf Returns: First Mission VR is a pleasant surprise.
Despite a slow start, Witch on the Holy Night does earn its reading time. It takes well-established character paradigms and works them in fun ways. The limited animations punctuate and accent the words, creating vivid action scenes with color choices that pop. This is a title for kicking back and relaxing, as there isn’t anything happening on the gameplay front.
When all is said and done, Goat Simulator 3 is a solid playground to have fun in and just be the worst goat possible.
To be entirely honest, Batora: Lost Haven needed time to grow on me.
Earlier in this review, I mentioned Ramba Ral and his suit, the Gouf. If you understood the reference, then SD Gundam Battle Alliance was made for you.
With a short run time, South of the Circle isn't meant to be for someone looking to stretch their gaming dollar.
For better or worse, mostly better, the re-release of Persona 4 Arena Ultimax is just that: a re-release.
Elex II is a uniquely ambitious game made by a developer that already focuses on ambitious games, and Piranha Bytes almost stuck the landing.
There are valid criticisms to be leveled at Chorus, but most of them stem from improvements in game design across the industry as a whole.
The fact that Jurassic World Evolution 2 is a worthwhile game isn't surprising.
When playing the original version of Death Stranding, I would have described it as lethargic with some horror elements when dealing the monsters.
For a game with so many valid criticisms, a recommendation might not seem forthcoming, but Astria Ascending rises above all of these issues as a total experience, with the art alone making worth the price of admission.
That Trigger Witch does nothing new is something that cannot be hidden.
Before beginning to play Akiba's Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed, plans to write a screed defending the game while poking fun at the pure stupidity of the gameplay were already in motion.
There are valid criticisms to level at Disco Elysium: The Final Cut. The console port wasn't handled as cleanly as it could have been and new players are likely to get blindsided in a way that just a touch more information up front would have avoided.
Gal Gun Returns isn't a bad game.
While complaints can be leveled at Sword of the Necromancer based on repetition, that doesn't mean that it's bad.
Games built entirely around boss battles can be great.
In no way, shape or form could Redout: Space Assault be considered required playing.
Despite a couple of gripes, it cannot be denied that Axe Cop succeeds at creating a fun, retro-inspired RPG. Red Triangle Games put their all in embracing the past while keeping the gameplay fresh and exciting, and the work shows.
