rock and stone (9-/10)

If you like the yakuza series i just dont see you hating this one.
it is a tbrpg now, and that might turn you off, but the gameplay really isnt that much of a pain in the ass. (speaking from a guy who despises tbrpg/jrpg)

it has the signature yakuza style, flashy as hell and very funny animations, it is as responsive as i couldve ever hoped for, it is good! The game also have the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ beastiary for every opponents you come across. I just wish you actually could pull up the beastiary on the fight so you know what their weakness are during combat.
Money is so scarce on this one since you need to also buy/craft equipments for your other party members, and it makes me miss the CP system. The business minigame does give you a lot of money though, and it is a very fun one too.
I hate the encounter system. There are some parts of the town where theres only one way and the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ enemies would block the way and youd have no choice but to wait or fight. There is an item that prevents the encounters but they showed up on the 3/4 of the game.
The early boss fights are easy enough, but thats fine. It ramps up in chapter 12 with absurd difficulty spike, and grinding was in order. Thankfully, the game also have fun methods of grinding so I ended up not caring about it too much and breezes through the whole game. This game also has one of those pathetic weak final bosses and you definitely end up overstocked for this fight, but I actually like it this time since it actually make sense why the last boss is weak as hell. Oh and the boss before the last boss is harder.

The story is a jumbled mess, and extremely political. I went through the story mainly for Ichiban and his friends and nothing else. There are highlight moments but overall like man they just would not stop ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ talking. Ending is pretty conclusive though despite the power of friendship thingy (yknow this game is a heavy parody of Dragon Quest and it shoves it down your throat) The cameos are amazing though i love them all and I love the Ichiban crew, probbably one of the most polished and thought out companion system out there. not beating DAO though LMAO

9/10

Its weird, because ive played the mobile version and there are some things that were done better in the mobile version, but there are also some things that were done better in this pc version. I don't know how to feel about it.
Still love the game though, probably one of the few games that cater towards my fantasy of making video games and being successful.

Great action game! I havent tried any other classes as of now and im still having a blast playing it
ngl though story is a bit all over the place
8/10

Sorry like this game is cheap, and I bought it in an extremely cheap discount, but it still feels like I got scammed.

There is nothing remotely memorable in this game, the action is fine, the dialogues are trash (there ARE some funny dialogues and moments but my god), story is pretty damn terrible at the start but it got decent on the end of the game. I love the bunker part, I especially hate the final boss fight. You literally dont get to utilize your equipments for most of the fights anyways so it really feels useless at the end of the day. I finished this game in 2 hours. The dlc is also a hot mettle piece of garbage, you just fight the same enemy every train, (granted there are new mobs), but the further you go they just get buffed so theres not much variety put into it. At least the new boss(s) that was included was actually a pretty cool fight but again id rather spend time playing another game than this

This not recommended is also for that cat granny ♥♥♥♥ you turnip boy how could you rip her drawing that was made specifically for you in front of her face you absolute demon (turnip boy is actually very evil though LMAO)
4/10

i played both the metro consecutively, so I can spot out the similarities and differences here and there. Again, this reminds me of half life 2, but this time episode 2, where its more combat oriented, same as Last Light, which is more combat oriented than 2033.

I like this metro more than the past metro, more action packed, the new weapons are sick, and i had some fun fighting the bosses (kinda ruined bcz i ran out of filters but wearing and throwing the mask off is so adrenaline rush it turned back into me loving the fight even more), somehow made me tolerate the nazis more than the communists (dont quote me on this one please I GOT ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ BETRAYED BRUH I HAD NO CHOICE ) Enjoyed the story a bit more than the first entry (2033 had a good story btw), had fun on every action sequences, and I kill everyone I meet, except when the choice is right at my screen asking to spare or kill. So yes the terrible decision of killing is bad knocking them out is good is back.
I just wished there were more choices to spare or fight them without killing them. You know, with a tranq gun/bullet? or like the shield? which they introduced at the end of the game for some reason or maybe present more hand to hand fight? like what...

But then again, I enjoyed this one more than 2033.
(7/10)

Game reminds me a lot of half life 2, but a bit more grounded. So if you're into that then go for this game.
Despite me not liking the game I can definitely see other thousands that might enjoy it more than I will ever be so Im recommending it regardless.

but not gonna lie to you lot but this game sucks balls
Graphics are beautiful, setting is amazing, story is pretty easy to catch on (and actually good), but the gameplay is ass
There are like three choices throughout the game where basically A do good or B do bad
the other choice being that you dont kill people. Killing people earns like a bad karma each people so if you play the whole game without killing people youre bound to get a good ending. which is ♥♥♥♥♥.
Like I mentioned in my steam bio, I am a coward when it comes to games, so I always pick the easiest difficulty. And in that note I dont have any problems with saving or managing any bullets as I can find them easily through scouring the dead bodies. This aspect is very fun though i'll tell you what.
At least the bad ending is canon, which means that im content enough with my decisions (mind you all the possible choices except killing i chose the good guy desicions because i am a very nice person)

(6/10)

If you like very casual calming and platforming game, (that of botw/Sky CotL style) and journeying with your cool bike, then this is definitely the game for you! If not then leave or else you will die of boredom 10 seconds in the game

Its kinda frustrating to rate this game.
Im not going to be harsh on an indie game, but this game is so barebones.
I just wished there were more of it. It was decent the whole playthrough, but in the end I left unsatisfied.
That new fishing thing they added is terrible, but I'm surprised it's actually from an update.
Sometimes it can get very clunky, and thats not fun either.
The characters barely interacts with each other and they act like im supposed to feel sad leaving them? no sir tears run back
I very much like the artstyle, and the music, but man I wish we actually get more skills than just gliding. I thought we were gonna get like a double jump or a new unique skill but nope.
And the cosmetics actually just serve as cosmetics... What... Maybe when you wear a certain set they would like, idk, have different animations of walking, interacting? Idk it felt like a huge missopportunity there. Either that or actually give bonus stats or something.
Anyways, yeah. Not really sure if I enjoyed it, but It is a pretty decent run of a game. I definitely did not regret buying this I'll tell you what.
7-/10

This game either makes you feel crazy smart or feel like the dumbest person on earth. there is no in between.

game is great though, fantastic mechanics, great story, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hilarious, tearjerker of an ending. 10/10.

A tad bit better than its predecessor.
And thats saying a lot considering how fantastic the first game was.
9+/10
