Way worse than Automata in terms of gameplay. Story, characters and bosses are interesting. The soundtrack didn't blow me away, but it's still nice to listen to. That's about it, though. Gameplay is running through the same small maps over and over again to get to story locations or to grind insane amounts of items, you'll need for pointless and boring side-quests. A few side-quests are interesting, but the majority is just a waste of time.

If you like post-apocalyptic games like Fallout, this entire series is a must-have.

We need the 1st Red Dead Redemption on PC. Remastered or not, I don't care, just not developed by Grove Street Games. Rockstar pls.

- texture pack without much improvement
- one new bonfire
- healing with estus as a summon
- two ladders fixed, that are bugged in 60fps Prepare to Die Edition but usable

All of this for 20 bucks...

The downside:
- Remastered splits the community and both multiplayers are pretty much dead now
- the lighting is messed up almost everywhere, especially in cutscenes
- Most hair-styles (at least for female characters) are messed up and have bald spots
- Sometimes weird input-lag, I didn't notice in Prepare to Die Edition
- Still no anti-cheat (There is one, but it's garbage)
- Questionable changes to balance and matchmaking in multiplayer

This Remastered pretty much ruined Dark Souls 1 on PC, because modded Prepare to Die is way better than this. But I guess squeezing some money out of PS4/xbone players is more important than the game overall. Unfortunately, you have to play this inferior version now, if you want to have at least a bit of multiplayer action.

Can't recommend at all.

3.6/3.6

It's a ton of fun, if you have 7 friends to play with in a private session. If you want to play on your own on public servers with random people, I can't recommend it, because of bad balancing, exploits and bugs and the game seems to be dead anyway.

I'd give this a mixed recommendation.

It's just a DLC to make money. It contains three different variations of an ATV, which should have been part of the main game. They can be requested at any outpost, but driving controls and physics are pretty wonky and road-kills aren't possible, either. I can't recommend this DLC at all. Unfortunately, if you don't want to run for hours to get somewhere on the map, you'll probably need this, so wait for a sale.

I didn't think Todd Howard, one of the best game directors ever, would ever allow a money-grab out of one of his games for the company, but I was wrong.

Without the increased price of the season-pass right after the release, I would say the price was ok for the additional content you get, but now the price is way too high.

For the season-pass you'll get:

- Far Harbor
- Nuka World
- Automatron
- Some workshop-content

Far Harbor:
The best DLC of all in my opinion. A very beautiful new area to explore, new enemies, weapons and an interesting story.

Nuka World:
This DLC adds a Nuka Cola-based amusement park to the game, which has been taken over by raiders. There are many map-interactions and the main aspect of the park is a territory based "war" between the different raider gangs. I think the main feature of this DLC is the oppotiunity to be bad in the game, because in the base-game it doesn't change anything if you are nice or bad to the citizens of the wasteland. (I remember the good old days, when I stood on a balcony, pressed a button and a whole town called Megaton got nuked to hell... Karma, I miss you.)

Automatron:
With this DLC you can build your own robot-companions. It also adds a little story, weapon- and armor sets as well as a new faction that appears in the Commonwealth. Nothing you couldn't mod for free.

Workshop-Content:
There are a few other DLC's, that add A LITTLE BIT of stuff to your settlement-workshops as well as a "Build your own vault"-DLC. In short: All of this content should have been added to the game for free, because you need to be interested in developing your settlements, otherwise this content is completely useless to you. You also have to buy game-features that were present in past BGS-games by default like the ability to build your own weapons and armor with the Contraptions Workshop-DLC.
The Vault-Tec Workshop-DLC has also very little content and free vault-mods add more and better stuff than this. Again, if you are not interested in settlements, you'll rush though the vault-questline, do all the missions in about 20 minutes and you'll never visit the vault again, like I did.
