One of the best roguelike games I had pleasure to try. It has a strong 'just one more try' syndrome and it's hard to stop playing. Building your deck requires flexibility and some luck. You cannot start the game with the strategy in mind because you cannot always get the cards and relics you need. All the characters are pretty unique and all of them are more than capable of winning the game. If you like roguelike and deck building it's the best you can get.

This game is great. It has very good story and interesting mechanics. If you like sneaking/survival horror and medieval times you will love it.

My favourite asymmetric multiplayer game. It gives tons of fun playing both as survivor and as a killer. I recommend everyone to try both roles to stop being toxic in chat about the other one. When you start and learn this game it really raises your heartbeat. After you get better at it it's less engaging, but even more satisfying.

Some may not like that there are a lot of DLC's. If you want to play seriously you will eventually buy at least some of them. Otherwise it's a grindfest with some luck and a lot of patience to get the perks unlocked.

Absolute classic that every fan of jRPG should know and if they don't they aren't real fan. I've replayed it after all this years when I was owning PSX and it's still great. Plot is nice, combat and materia system are satisfying and you don't need to switch CD like in the old days. As I tried to get everything done there's one thing that I didn't like. Achievement for collecting gold got a threshold set at riddiculously high level. But if you want to have it all - let the grindfest begin. Now something that will piss many people off:

FF VII is great, but FF VIII is better :)

This game is just astonishing. The grapthics, lightning and music are mesmerizing. Gamplay is super fun and satisfying. Skills are well thought and very intuitive to use. If you like the platformers then you absolutely have to give it a shot. If you don't think video games can be a work of art try it. It might change your mind.

Is it different than the old one? Yes.
Is it better than the old one? No.
Is it worse than the old one? No.

Being a big fan of the first Mafia, I was waiting for this remake ever since I've heard of it. I got to say I'm pleased with the results. Sure, there are some bugs, but when I played original Mafia it also had lots of them.

Definitive Edition looks pretty good, shooting has been modernised to match today's games and the city feels more "alive". Classic difficulty is similar to the original (mainly because of dying really fast during the gunfights if you are careless).

They've added some cutscenes, modified old ones and personally, I like this change. It didn't affect the main plot, as it is still the same one we all fell in love back in 2002.

If I had to point something I don't like it will be the new voice acting. Especially for Paulie. I don't like his new voice and I don't like his new look. Apart from that I don't like that they removed a lot of traffic lights, which makes driving through Lost Heaven easier. Still though this is really minor issue.

This game is so much fun. Especially when you play it with friends. You can be detective, murderer, troll or master of deception. Now go and do the tasks before the imposter gets you! Or maybe you are the imposter? Guess I'll call the meeting to talk about it with the rest of our crew.

This is a real gem of adventure games. If you played Maniac Mansion, Monkey Island or any other LucasArts point-and-clicks you will feel at home. The pixelated graphic looks really nice, there's a lot of humor in it and the plot itself is very interesting. It has two game modes called hard and casual, but I don't recommend taking the casual one (well not on the first playthrough). Hard mode isn't really hard. It's just like every other adventure game and all the riddles are logical, so you shouldn't have problem with being stuck for too long. As for the flaws. For me there's just a bit too many red herrings, but it's also part of the genre so I guess we have to live with it.

Very cool 2D souls-like game. It makes fun of the genre and has nice looking pixelated graphics. Too bad it's a little bit short.

It's really good RPG. I had a lot of fun playing through it. Still though there were many little things that I didn't like.

AI seems to be smart when it's your enemy, but as soon as it controls character that helps you in fight it makes extremely stupid actions. Combat system itself is very interesting and allows for a lot of combinations and tactics, that's one of the strongest sides of the game. Unfortunately, some fights will force you to load, because it's almost impossible to win them first time without knowing some unique mechanics, so make sure to quick save a lot.

As for the plot, the main story is nothing spectacular, but it gets better closer to the end. I had most fun with subquests and character specific ones. They are really nice and interesting.

To sum things up. It deffinitely is one of the best RPG games there are and everyone who loves this genre should try it. Is it going to be my favourite? No, it has to many little annoyances. Also for the people who played first DOS. If you liked it, you will like this one.
