The codex astartes does not condone this action ... but I am looking forward to it

One hell of a game. Learning curve is a brick wall, requiring a blend of political subversion, ship designing that would make a Stellaris player weep, and tactical mastery.

This is very much a 'long war', 30 hrs in and still only on first run. A mistake that you made in hour 20 may only reveal itself at hour 30. The intertwining systems are very satisfying to decipher and when you finally plan and overcome the challenge it is euphoric.

Flawed and buggy sequel.

Most of the good game design choices from the first are gone, replaced with more asinine AAA game tropes like weapon rarity, boring crafting, and tedious looting through x-ray vision.

Night time is no longer scary, more a chore of juggling the stupid timer that slams the breaks on any excitement & volatiles being relegated to heat level 4 there is no danger.

Story had the potential to be interesting, but quickly devolved into choosing between authoritarian or anarchy.

Games should make you feel something
oh boy does this game make you feel

such a creative game mechanic and would very strongly recommend everyone play

Best AC game since Black Flag. Surprisingly engaging for a Ubisoft game with nuance and choices for most quests. Combat is satisfying and weighty, with the stupid modern plot minimal and the larger Templar/Assassin plot not present so far.

Just a good satisfying romp through ancient greece

Solid foundations and even with only 2 divisions more fun than both Wargame & Steel Division.

Pulls all the best bits from aforementioned into a perfect blend.

Good conclusion to the Arkham series, while the batmobile can be a bit janky sometimes it does add some nice variety to the core game play loop.

It is the most difficult of the 3, lots of enemy variety with many requiring a specific tactic to take out.

Most fun in an FPS since Titanfall 2. Aye the battle-pass and progression could be better but it is free with a killer core game play loop.

A good flavour of the 'factory builder', worth getting for a change or if you don't already have Satisfactory/Factorio

I consider these superior as Dyson has no MP or PVE (at time of writing)

The 2.0 update has finally brought Imperator on par with the rest of the PDX library
