I didn’t liberate the Creek just to watch Democracy die at the hands of a corporation. And I’m glad I won’t be seeing such a fate today.

For Super Earth

It's Hotline Miami with Bullet Time. What more could you ask for?

Fantastic game that you're gonna love the entire way through.

Can't wait to put another 200 hours in, at least.

A beautiful journey from beginning to end.
The narrative of self forgiveness for past mistakes, and to hold onto hope in a world embroiled in struggling is so powerful, especially at the time of writing. I won't go into spoilers, but to summarize, damn. World looks a little brighter.

As for the gameplay, the feel is very familiar to that of DD1, especially in regards to the Inn and the Roads. Comparisons to that of Camps and Hallways, with each Node being equivalent to that of a Room are apt. If you wanted to make more overall comparisons, DD2 runs are very much so like Crimson Court Dungeons, but done in one run.

The biggest thing in combat is how varied the trinkets feel, and how much you can exploit their synergies in addition to skills. The token system itself is very fun, and a way to convey different ideas in gameplay concisely, once you understand it.

If there was one complaint, it's just the want of more content, which can honestly be said for the majority of games. Otherwise, Darkest Dungeon II is still a fantastic game worth playing regardless of if you enjoyed the first or not, because that's the design philosophy. DD2 is not meant to replace DD1, and that single design choice has given this game so much identity.

Thank you, Red Hook, for yet another fantastic game.

I used to have hope. I used to believe that 343 could've done something right. I used to just hold out that tiniest bit of hope after those trailers.

Halo Infinite is not a return to form. It is the final nail in the coffin that was built in 2012.

Oh, what could be said about XCOM 2 that already hasn't been said. As a pillar of a tactical shooter, XCOM 2 remains one of my most enjoyed games for years now, not to mention the excellent additions of War Of The Chosen and the Tactical Legacy Pack. The game remains fun to play for sure, but mods purely enhance the experience to a new level not possible before. Highly recommend the game.

10/10 would savescum again.
