One of those games that you need to finish in one sitting.
I find it hard to call it a game; it's more like an experience—mind-bending, visually stunning, very well written, and accompanied by touching music. Take Dark City , Neuromancer, *1984, Equilibrium, and Being John Malkovich, mix them with the styles of David Lynch, Christopher Nolan, Tarsem Singh, Guillermo del Toro, and Hideo Kojima, and the result is Karma: The Dark World.

The game leans heavily on the narrative side. There isn't much interaction; I guess you could call it a walking simulator. As someone who is overly scared of horror games, I wouldn't describe this as one. There are one or two jump scares here and there, but that's totally on me. However, an eerie atmosphere permeates the game from the very beginning, and it hits just the right note.

Lastly, I know this game may not be for everyone. But if you enjoyed Indika, Inside, Hellblade, Sanitarium, or if you love artsy games with weird, mind-bending stories that make you want to sit in silence and get lost in thought for a while after finishing them, this might be right up your alley.

Edit: Grammar and spelling

I have no issues with core mechanics of the game and the gameplay loop. I actually enjoyed it a lot. However the performance is miserable. At first I thought "Yea my 3070Ti is getting old" but seeing people's videos and comments how the game runs terribly on 4090 GPU's I think it is safe to say the game is terribly optimised. Asking user to turn on frame generation on the launch is a huge red flag. This frame generation thingy is turning into an easy way out for devs for lazy programming and bad optmisation.

I will edit this review if I see any improvement on the coming patches. However considering DD2's current state I doubt that Capcom will give a crap. (I hope I'm wrong)

Thought provoking, surprisingly fun and well executed. Indika is paced perfectly, it is a short game yes but it is the best part of it. It presents an experience, nothing more nothing less. There is no artificial grind to keep you busy, each and every part of the game come together perfectly. Very cleverly written and executed.

Indika has earned a permanent and dear place in my heart in my 4 hours of playtime. A truly special game.

Thanks to this game I'm a calmer person and I don't wanna punch my P.O.S. boss anymore.

Emperor protects!

Ghost of Tsushima is the best cat simulator since Stray. You play as Ranton (aka Rantoni Megaolodoni), who is a samurai kitten. You chase little yellow birds and fireflies, make new friends such as foxes, monkeys and deer, sit in the sun and just relax.

There are many cool cinematics, overall environmental design is amazing.

The scene where Sora died was done so well and heart breaking: 11/10 would cry again

The only fighting game that made me wish I was good at fighting games. Oh and Faust is the best character ever made.

PoE and Diablo had a love child and this game is that love child. Devs got best sides of both games added quite a bit of really nice features, behold Last Epoch!

Bad reviews are mostly because of the rough launch, but give Devs a break way bigger titles had even worse launches. This is an indie game which has received a much deserved hype since early access. It would be naive to expect a super smooth launch.

Don't mind the "durka durrrr" of the haters, but just buy the game and enjoy it, thank the Devs and don't forget to brush your teeth...

Is it perfect in terms of polish? No, but it's one of the best releases in the last couple of years. I only had a few bugs and after the huge patch I had no issues.

Besides the above mentioned issues the game is amazing. Reminds me of those Friday afternoons. As a littler squirt I'd rush back home from school, chug the backpack to the oblivion then get lost in those fantasy worlds. BG3 is the only game that made me feel like this since forever. As an old fat fart I've been rushing home back from work and getting lost in Faerun. This is that game, the one that you lost sleep over, the one that made you kept thinking during the day, the one that you felt empty inside when you finished it... Then you started all over again, to check every nook and cranny, to save that NPC that you left to die on your previous playthrough. This is THE game.

Thank you Larian Studios for making me feel excited for video games for the first time after all those years. With the current state of video games market, where almost every major game is a storefront for microstransactions, where games are being released at alpha stage, where the players are ignored by the publishers once they bought the game, Larian Studios is one of only few studios who didn't forget games are made to be played, not to lure people to some scammy in-game stores. Take note Blizzard, EA, Ubisoft and all the other publisher scum who turned gaming into a dull, copy paste market, developers into slaves and who treat players as mindless drones.
