Absolutely fantastic. I don't usually play story-heavy games but this one has kept me hooked.

It's really as good as I remember, better even!
If you play it for the campaign you won't regret a thing. The multiplayer, however, seems to be dead, or I am just not patient enough to wait however long it takes to find a game session.

This was my first time playing a Resident Evil game and I loved it! Some quirks that annoyed me but overall a solid game with plenty of replayability too.

All the Hitman you could ever want. The world design and mass of stories available in each mission are incredible and it means you can approach each mission in the way that you like and it usually works. The limited-time missions can be hit-and-miss but many of them are really fun and add something more to come back to the game for.

However I am not a fan of:

- The ridiculous (manipulative?) pricing scheme
- Having to always be online or sacrifice many of the game's features

The original Oblivion was one of my favourite games of all time so I had quite high hopes for this.
The graphical difference is astounding but unfortunately the performance issues are bad enough that I would rather play the original. Hopefully it get's fixed or I can revisit in 10 years when better hardware has been released, but we'll see.

Absolutely bonkers

Really enjoying it so far. I've come to expect ass performance and mediocre gameplay from modern titles, but this is a very pleasant exception. Run's and looks great on an RTX 3080 Ti at 1440p.

Great couch co-op game. I used to play this a lot with my brothers as it's simple to learn but fast-paced enough to get you riled up.

Things I like
- Loads of custom zombies maps on the workshop (I have hardly touched the official ones but hear they're good too)
- Movement in multiplayer is fun, though playing by yourself with bots get's stale

Things I don't like
- Crazy expensive considering how old the game is (can get bo6 for a similar price!)
- Apparently have to use the t7patch tool to avoid getting hacked or your details leaked
- Multiplayer is completely dead (I see zombies matches but none for regular matchmaking)
- The Japanese version of the game doesn't let you change the language to English! Would kind of suck if you live in Japan but cannot read Japanese very well.

Simple enough to learn but difficult enough to make you have to take a step back to analyse what goes where and how to get through a stage.
