Nostalgia.

It pains me to say this but currently I cannot recommend this game in its current state. The game is riddled with bugs, server, problems, extremely bad xp progression and over priced micro transactions. This game is probably about 6 months from being in a decent place. Servers are incredibly bad especially in competitive. It's completely normal to have 160ms ping in a US competitive lobby. Disconnections are very common. Not to mention you get banned because the game sees that as you quitting and there is no native rejoin feature built in. Once you're out of the game, you're out for good. The game has a MASSIVE cheating problem as there is literally NO anti-cheat at all. 343's highschool answer to this problem was to turn off red reticle to "stop" people from aim botting. (It has done little to nothing to help with the problem). Mouse and keyboard have a serious input lag issue that is unacceptable for a competitive PC game. Controllers have a big advantage over PC users do to bullet magnetism and aim assist. (I play at Onyx level in comp so I'm not bad). This game is in a sad spot for a company worth so much money and given so much time to build this game. If you are a die hard Halo fan you might stick through it, but otherwise this game is just broken right now.

Ori and the Blind forest is arguably one of the greatest platformers of all time not only because of the amazing gameplay which offers many different approaches to every situation with abilities of every kind, but because of the amazing and touching story of loss and sacrifice. This theme runs throughout the story and will find you on the verge of tears at every corner. Such a beautiful masterpiece.

Great game. Not for the feint of heart or for casuals.
