This was actually the very first CRPG that I've played, so I don't have much basis to review it as such. However I can review Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire based on it's pros and cons as a video game.

This game has a compelling story line that is truly dictated by your choices and actions. Everything you do in the game feels like it has an impact on the world itself and the outcome as a whole. The dialogue options in the game are awesome and the amount of effort that went into the dialogue and the voice overs shows. Very rarely (if ever) did i find that a piece of dialogue was not voiced and presented. Your companions in the game all have unique personalities, interests, and goals. You can grow to really appreciate your crew or even dislike them as their interests don't align! Combat is fun and honestly not TOO overwhelming, it is easily understood what the different statuses and effects do and you aren't bogged down with confusing combat mechanics. I would say that alone makes it a great game if your looking to get started in CRPG games!

My only complaint about this game is that there could of been more unique armors and weapons. While there was a fair amount, it would of been nice to have more items to really be able to fit into all builds and ideas. And the naval combat is a bit of a snooze.

Overall the game scores a solid 9.1 out of 10

Not a horrible game within the mix of garbage that's produced these days. However, it's a disgrace to the Mafia series. With a well thought out story and setting with much to be excited about, I found myself slowly losing interest as the missions are repetitive and cookie cutter. The first 2 Mafia games were so special, the story was constantly developing every mission and there was a level of charm that just doesn't translate to Mafia 3. I HIGHLY recommend Mafia 1 and 2, but I can't within good conscious recommend this uninspired game. I'd rather have 8-10 hours of amazing writing full of charm and constant bliss, then the 50 hours of mind-numbing, repetitive, and uninspired game play that this game provides.

Graphics: 7/10 pretty good.
Game-play/Gun play: 10/10 one of the few things they got right.
Story: 3/10 Would be good but its bogged down with a wild amount of cookie cutter missions.

Nothing quite like Counter Strike, a competitive and strategic experience that has to wanting to improve every day. Can't wait to see what Counter Strike 2 has in store.

What an amazing game, truly. I have not been this invested and immersed into a game in quite some time. "Prepare to die" and prepare for the feeling triumph through trial and error. There are no other companies that make a game quite as refined and in depth with lore and visuals. At any point can you just stop and look around, and be amazed at the detail in the landscapes. Truly immersive, the world feels real, and boundless. There is just so much to be desired about this game, so i'm gonna stop my boner-fest for this game and just say this...

BECOME THE ELDEN LORD.

FromSoftware really has the winning formula to keep you challenged and entertained. Can't wait to see what is next from them.

PETA would not approve, it's fun though. Quick and brainless fun to play with my dumb friends.

Mordhau is nothing short of a good time. Great swordplay, great community, and a great time.

Dear Developers,

What if you guys expanded on the PvE aspect of the game? Are there any plans for that? I think if you made some sort of mission based PvE or maybe even a Dungeon crawl?! omg would be so awesome. Please consider the possibilities.

This.... this is art. A deep and thought provoking story that leaves you wondering, just WHO is the stranger? You continue to ask yourseld this as you opt to shoot the trigger, sweating in fear for your life. The glaring red eyes of the stranger pierce into your very soul. Those red eyes, telling you to pull the trigger. So you continue to pull the trigger, that is until you draw your last breath. Never really knowing..... who the stranger is. This game really is philosophical. The idea of life being so precious to us, is challenged by the chance you take in this game. Any second, like russian roulette, you could die by chance. Be it cancer, by car crash, or by a gun. Around every corner, is a gun with one in the chamber.

DLC ad spam is too much. And don't say, "wElL DoNT Use ThE DLc GuNs, It ONlY PoPS uP WheN-" STOP RIGHT THERE. If you are playing on a server, let's say atlis life, and the server uses assets from the dlc BOOM ADS every 5 seconds. It's a horrible way to bully people into buying the dlc. I had so much fun on ARMA in the past, but excuse me for not having the money to spare to buy the DLC. My experience and enjoyment doesnt mean ♥♥♥♥ to the devs, it's all about the money these days with game developers. It's sad af. Peace and goodbye ARMA, it'd been a fun ride but youre a dead game and dead to me.

Dear future Arma release (in the year 2033), I'm sorry but I have lost faith in your devs priorities. I wish you the best, dont come looking for me.
