Call of Duty Modern Warfare

7/10

I am a huge fan of the Call of Duty series, and Modern Warfare in particular, but this game just pissed me off. Gameplay-wise the game is almost flawless, but the controversy over the campaign is just too big. like How Russian soldiers kill civilians without cause, it's just terrible. I will say that in any game about the second world war, the German troops did not show as they showed Russia in the new Call of Duty Modern Warfare. The stereotype of "evil Russia" has gone a little too far in my opinion.

MechWarrior 5 Mercenaries

MechWarrior 5 Mercenaries tries to be inclusive but unfortunately makes the mainstream issues with the genre all the more apparent without doing anything truly new or exciting to really draw the player in. Like your Grandpa’s rusty old Blackjack, Mechwarrior 5 Mercenaries is an old machine that could use a lot of polish.

Death Stranding

A Walking Simulator with very long boring Cutscenes. Kojima's first post-Konami project is a bizarre, self-indulgent mess that never quite manages to tie its myriad pieces together. Death Stranding is an irredeemable piece of garbage that should serve as a warning to publishers who give developers carte blanche to create ‘art’.

Resident Evil Village

This game is infuriating and annoying beyond what is fun. I like a good challenge but Having to play through the same area almost always twice to know exactly how to do it is not fun. All I can say is This Survival horror doesn't suit my personal tastes.

Detroit Become Human

8/10

The main characters, the story, the choices, the moral dilemmas, the audio, the overall experience...it all comes together in one fantastic package. Quantic Dream's Detroit Become Human is not only the studio's best game, it also raises the bar for the genre. A fantastic adventure that blurs the line between cinema and video games.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla

10/10

One of the best games of 2020 and overall one of the best Assassin's Creed games ever made. Assassin's Creed Valhalla is the best tale the franchise has ever told, featuring the most varied and rewarding gameplay the series has seen in years. Valhalla will forever dine in Odin's Hall as one of the greatest RPGs of this generation.

Horizon Zero Dawn The Frozen Wilds

7/10

Horizon Zero Dawn The Frozen Wilds and its mysteries residing in Thunder's Drum may not reach the same heights as the main game and does not start a revolution and has a pretty weak storyline too but it offers enough new and diverse content that all fans of mechanical dinosaurs wanting to return to this world after defeating Hades should play it without hesitation.

Ni no Kuni II Revenant Kingdom

3/10

I loved the beautiful world and engaging combat. But every once in a while, everything would grind to a halt and I'd have to deal with the overworld strategy mechanics that feel poorly integrated. and I'm amazed how tragic audio layer has made this game unbearable. The music is irritating, to say the least, and when you disable it appears that there's not much left - besides the dialogs the game seems muted. This is the first time in my gaming career that I've felt that the game is destroyed because of sound only.

Railway Empire

2/10

The core of the game is sound, it just needs to be more upfront with the player about what it’s doing. It’s really frustrating for me because I keep booting it up and I keep playing it, but eventually tangled web of systems gets the better of me and I’ve got to close it in a rage. It pains me because with the easily identified issues to the interface this is a game which would comfortably clamber up to 8.5, perhaps even 9 out of 10. Who knows, a few patches down the line, maybe Railway Empire will get there. After all, no train arrives quite on time.

Yakuza 0

2/10

I’d never played a Yakuza game before this one, much to the dismay of certain friends. While it’s definitely a daunting franchise to enter into, Yakuza 0 is simultaneously the best and worst starting point for newcomers like myself. It has the challenging combat and wacky humor that you’d expect. Yakuza 0 takes it back to where it all began, but a mildly interesting setting and story don’t quite make up for the game’s more tedious elements.

SpellForce 3

3/10

Looking at single aspects, SpellForce 3 is successful on all fronts, but this does not tell the whole story as on some level the game fails to come together cohesively. Building up RPG characters works largely well, but the RTS strategy sections leave a lot to be desired and the heroes simply melt into the background too much to be in any way meaningful. There is nothing wrong with the game; it is just never an awesome experience.

Ancestors Legacy

2/10

Nice trailers, great announcements, and the game itself is boring and repeatable. The battles last forever. Since you can’t have more than a dozen units at any time and defensive buildings can only be placed in pre-determined spots, your tactical options are extremely limited and no matter what you choose, you’ll end up playing whack-a-mole with enemy troops.

Blitzkrieg 3

2/10

Although you’re given a solid level of control over individual squads, you have little control over the game as a whole. Nothing about the game reaches out to the player and pulls them into an immersive WWII experience. Blitzkrieg 3 cannot penetrate the hearts of RTS enthusiasts.

Horizon Zero Dawn

8/10

Horizon Zero Dawn is familiar but also really refreshing. and the storytelling feels concise and efficient. The combat has some nice options that make encounters fun, even when you're just stacking up stealth kills from the relative safety of a bush. And the presentation end of the game holds up its end of things with a solid soundtrack, great voice acting, and a cohesive design that makes all its disparate parts fit together. All in all, it's a great game.
