She's literally me

Despite a messy launch with plenty of server issues, Payday 3 is an extremely fun game to play with friends and improves in almost every way on the second game. I hope once these server issues should be ironed out in a few days, people can see how incredibly fun this game is and all it has to offer

Love the bald guy, ♥♥♥♥ Colorado tho

Frictional Games once again delivers an outstanding horror experience with Amnesia: The Bunker. The unscripted nature of this title is such a huge upgrade from previous Amnesia games that this might as well be my absolute favourite of the series. There were so many utterly terrifying moments in the game that just happened naturally from the AI and gameplay mechanics. The story is also much better than I would've thought for such a short, horror focused experience. All in all I cannot recommend this game enough, it's truly one of the best and scariest horror games I've ever played.

A childhood dream come true, quite literally:

I grew up playing the early 2000's EA Harry Potter videogames with my big brother, we used to spend months exploring Hogwarts, fighting spiders, learning new spells and finding ourselves in this incredible magical world. It's honestly some of the best times of my life and I will always cherish those memories fondly.

Now, when this game got announced, I have to admit I was sceptical, the gameplay trailers looked average at best and I couldn't exactly imagine that it would ever recapture the feelings of the old EA games I played as a kid, at that point I had assumed the only reason those games always felt so truly magical to me was because of nostalgia. I wasn't even quite sure whether to buy it until I saw a friend of mine play the first hour on stream, which convinced me to give it a shot after all.

What I got was, without a doubt, one of the greatest gaming experiences I've had in recent times, I didn't think I could feel like a child again exploring hundreds of secret corridors in Hogwarts and everything that made those early childhood memories so incredible, yet here we are, with a game that truly delivered on everything I would've ever wanted when I grew up playing the old games.

This game is nothing short of astonishing, the world feels lively, the NPCs always have something to do, there are hundreds of secrets and things to discover in Hogwarts and the gigantic open world. The game is charming, cosy, scary at times and made me feel like a kid again for the first time in many, many years. All of this goes without even mentioning the graphics, which are so incredibly gorgeous that I had to manually turn off every HUD element on multiple occasions just to take screenshots for my steam profile. There are currently still some performance issues on PC, but I assume those will get addressed at a later date. Apart from those, this is quite an exceptional launch for a tripe-A game, especially when compared to open world RPG peers like Cyberpunk. I only encountered two minor bugs in my 70 hour playtime so far, and both of those weren't exactly game breaking. The combat is extremely satisfying and very fun to do, definitely one of the highlights of this game. The story is good, not amazing but still perfectly serviceable for this type of game, that being said, the attention to detail and huge areas / enemies made exclusively for main or side quests is just incredible.

This game is nothing short of extraordinary and genuinely up there as one of my all time favourites, I couldn't recommend it enough.

My best friend suggested we play this as a fun coop experience, little did I know how truly meaningful and touching this game would be. It explores grief, trauma, moving on, the meaning of life and so much more while having the façade of a cute adventure game. I still get shivers anytime I listen to the Everdoor music, this game touched me like few others have, I highly recommend it

Incredible worldbuilding, a fascinating story and extremely well written characters, Disco Elysium is one of the best games I've played in a long while, not to mention all the different choices and ways to play through the game, it's nothing short of insane how many things the developers considered for this RPG. I can't even imagine how much time was spent to make every decision give you a different playthrough. I cannot recommend it enough for players who don't get bored quickly by slow moving stories and are intrigued by this dystopian world the creators thoughtfully crafted

Truly a mesmerising experience like no other, I've rarely been scared as much as I was when I chased by the zombie dogs in this game. 10/10 totally worth the 0.00140338 bitcoin it cost

As long as you're willing to accept Frictional trying a few new things to spice their formula up, you will experience an extremely well crafted, personal story that isn't far behind the incredible work they did with their prior entries. Alix Wilton Regan's voice acting is a particular standout as she delivers the absolute terror that Tasi goes through with utter perfection.

10/10 for all the available Neko mods alone, pretty entertaining game for skilled players too I suppose.
