After nearly 200 hours of game play at the time of writing this review. I still have more content to explore in Lost Ark.
Though the time is currently spread out amongst 4 characters.

The game mechanics have been easy to understand and learn.
General game play is amazing. Combat is awesome. (I like that you can make mobs explode) xD

From the PvP I have done, matches seem fair and balanced. I always enjoy the time I spend in this part of the game.

A bonus perk to mention is that when you go through the story quests and hit level 50 on your first character, you can get a pass to use to boost another character to 50. Once that is done, you'll get another.

Added to that, you also get access to a Knowledge research station in your stronghold. Where if a character has gotten to a certain quest and item level. You can transfer the knowledge to another character. (But for the item levels higher than 302. The character you want to boost has to obtain that item level first) This boost takes 8 hours and costs a bit of gold. [Currently limited to 9 times per tier of boost]

I quite enjoy this feature as it potentially stops you having to grind out the story multiple times.

The only con I can think of, is when it comes to honing. (Gear enhancement)
Some of the materials end up character bound, so when you reach the next tier. Those materials are pretty much useless.
So because we spend time obtaining those materials, that instead of making them character bound, make them roster bound so we can transfer un-used materials to our alts?

My overall view of the most is very positive.
I am really enjoying this game right now and I do plan on sinking a lot more hours into as I as reach for more content and help my friends reach the same.

I highly recommend Lost Ark.

I pre-orderd this game and played through the Alpha.

The game is very well polished and runs amazing.

I've had 0 issues but a ♥♥♥♥ ton of fun!

I recommend this game!!

I pre-ordered the Collectors Edition.

Yes, the game started of badly. But the Neo Team have worked hard and pretty quick to fix the issues.
The do regular patches to fix other issues people find and report.

*Some* people that refunded and gave a bad review - I understand this issue, but did not give the Devs a chance to fix the issue(s)

I recommend this game. I believe it has a decent chance to go further. If they stay true to the path they are currently on!

For Early Access.
This game is amazing. I've had it for around 3 days. And already got 36 Hours.
This is a game with great potential. But is in great condition for "Early Access" There are bugs and thats to be expected. But i've not really found anything that is gamebreaking or ruins the experience.

I do recommend Citadel. But just remember. It is Early Access and Bugs do exsist and the team is working hard to fix them.

Pro's.
You experience things you would have never thought of.
The Taming/Scrolls is a great concept.
Farming Resources does not feel like a grind.
Most stuff can be tamed.
They read/listen to what people have to say and look into it.
Telekenisis is getting nerfed (patch notes released yesterday) [Possible Patch Release Today]

Con's.
Server stability (Which is being addressed as I type this)

**Suggestion**
People seem to build random structures in a server to gain XP. Then they just leave them. Which leaves me thinking it adds to the server load decreasing performance.
it is possible to up the decay time on "Abandoned Structures" Or allow an Admin to use a removal command. (within reason)

This game is amazing. I always play as Duo or Squads.

I really enjoy the gun play. Aiming and shooting is smooth.
Finding attachments to improve the weapon is also really good.

The overall detail of the guns & building is fantastic.

Audio is perfect. My headset can help me pinpoint where gun shots are coming from..

My only complaint is that, "Sometimes" you spend most of your time running for the safe zones. In some cases it feels the time between zone decreases is to quick.

My rating is a 9/10. As there is still some bugs in the game. But it is beautifully made and runs really smooth.
I know they have made 'alot' of money from Early Acess purchases. But the game is developed really well and they have been keeping ontop of patches and fixes so far.

Most people will compare this to H1Z1 KOTK..
DON'T!. The target of the game is the same, yes. But these are 2 seperate games and both have different pros and cons.

I HIGHLY recommend PlayerUnknown Battlegrounds.
A really amazing, fun game as it stands.
And really great potential to grow into something bigger!

I have not run into any Optimisation issues. Game runs perfectly fine for me. (Everything on Very High)

I gotta admit. To me, this game is fun.
I like the general aspect of what they are trying to achieve.

Vehicles need alot of work.. It feels sluggish. And handling needs a good touch up.

Helicoptors. I should be able to hold Shift and W to fly forwards with greater speed. Even though you are increasing pitch by holding Shift... It still makes you dive towards the ground.. (Other games allow you to hold shift and W.. Keep your height, but allowed a speed increase)

I started off with Solo play. The tactical side of controling your squad sending them into areas to cover you whilst you steal all the kills/fun.

I then went into Online play with a friend. (Just the two of us) It was fun, using APC's and Turret vehicles. But I have the same comment that vehicles need some work.

I do recommend Wildlands.

Dark Souls 3 is a great game.
A good time passer.

I always seem to be in bad luck. Someone normaly always invades me when i'm fighting a boss. But they still get their asses kicked xD
But then the boss kills me xD

I messed up a little bit in the sense of.. I missed alot. In each map there is always a different path that leads somewhere else.

I have defeated a few bosses. But there is still alot more to do.

I like to invade other people. Experiancing the different styles that people use.

10/10.

Yu-Gi-Oh fans get this game.

I currently run a God Card Deck. with some other hidden features.
One combo - Infinite Cards + Slifer The Sky Dragon.

Wall Of Revealing Light. 5000 life points, so enemy can only attack if attack points are higher then 5000.

Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon.. To become either Fusion with Black Luster Solider to create Master Dragon Knight or turned into Blue Eyes Ultimate Shining Dragon.

Dark Magican(s) to become Magician Of Black Chaos or Sorcerer of Dark Magic.

And Queen's Knight, King's Knight and Jack's Knight.

I recommend this for all Yu-Gi-Oh fans.
You can either use Deck recipes, unlock the cards. And use the same deck as the person from the show.
Or build your own with the cards you unlock. I currently have different useable decks.

My created God Card Deck.
Magican Deck
Dragon Deck.
Yami Yugi's Exodia deck.
Seto Kiba Obelisk + Blue eyes Deck.
Mariks - RA deck.

I highly recommend this game. This game is like if Dayz & H1Z1 had a baby.

Yes, its still "Early Access" but 100% worth it.

Updates are well worked. I have not encountered many bugs. Loot is good. Loot system is good. (Never died due to lack of food/Drink)

To get the best loot you just need to learn where to look. The best loot is hidden (IN PLAIN SIGHT)

I only raided bases. I have not attempted to build one yet. As I would like to build with a group. Most of the time. I'm solo or duo. So no rating on base building***

Weather affects are amazing. (Visual and Audio) Tornados. So we drove our vehicle into a tornado to see what would happen. It kicked us out and picked the vehicle up. And threw the vehicle back out about 10 minutes away. Which lucky not much damage was done to it.

Thunderstorms look and sound amazing. A great experiance in a game.

This game is a work in progress. But It has great potential!!

9/10 from me!

8/10.

HITMAN. Looks awesome. Plays awesome.
Content releases.. I think are too slow.

But. You play an Assassin. And there is soo many ways to kill your target(s).
And the build up to getting your target can be just as good.
Question #1. Do I want to kill my doctor, dressed as a maid or lab geek, security or some rich guy's suit?
Question #2. How many people do I feel like killing along the way?
Question #3. How should I kill my target? Wire? Poison? Or should I just go in all guns blazing and just shoot the Bas***d? =]
