Unfortunately I would not recommend this game to a rally fan, a few things right and so many other vital things poorly designed. This game is trying to be something it just cannot pull off, the horrendous livery creator design is one of them. No option to load a livery, or put one you made in the main menu editor into career mode. Which completely renders the livery editor in the main menu useless since you have to be inside of career mode's livery editor in order to make one for your custom team. Speaking of custom team you have to play through and entire season of wrc or finish the anniversary modes to unlock a custom team mode?

The look and feel is light years ahead of their other titles, I read all about the famous audio and how much time was put into it just to find the audio in the game sounds washed out and very quiet. I thought for a bit maybe I found my new rally game but the more and more I play and hit these ridiculous design roadblocks it just continues to take the fun out of it. I have given this game as much time as I need to, spent more time annoyed and irritated with the menu bugs, audio bugs, weird design choices that roadblock you from doing what you want to do, all the extra crap thrown in doesn't feel like an official rally experience to me.

Using a G29 Logitech the ffb feels decent at times and inconsistent at others, sometimes not any ffb at all for a few seconds then it snaps back in. Again it just felt really rushed in the user interface department, it took them 10 games to finally get a decent rally experience and this one is riddled with audio and user interface bugs and design choices that kill the immersion factor.

The game constantly throws curve balls at you putting you on a packed snow asphalt surface without an option in between to swap tires so essentially you're racing on slicks on packed snow. Am I just supposed to run snow tires on asphalt then? Defeats a lot of the purpose of the tire framework they have implemented in the game when you don't let teams switch out tires or at least warn of a stage with packed snow, it's not like the team hasn't already scouted the courses right? Poorly executed design, hopefully Codemasters will fix this mess.

They don't make rpgs like this anymore, I forgot how detailed the quests, guilds and npcs were. Brought me back to what rpgs should feel like. Far better detailed magic crafting system and alchemy then TESV and most rpgs for that matter. I loved Skyrim but I can get much more immersed into Oblivion considering how much more detailed the dialogue and quest and lore is in this game. You feel like you are actually establishing relationships in this game due to npc comments and actions, and when you start dabbling into alchemy and magic the game can get very rewarding. The fact you can create custom classes for very specific builds was the icing on the cake for me.

A breath of fresh air reverting back to this diamond in the forgotten rough. If you're a purist you'll dive right in and get immersed, otherwise a few graphic mods will polish the game up a bit bringing in the immersion a bit more.

Can never go wrong with The Elder Scrolls.

Great map design.
Good skills that are useful.
Dynamic ai.
Fun combat where you actually have to use tactics since every enemy reacts and fights different, and your skills and tools are useful here and provides a good challenge on higher skill levels.
Decent graphics. (60-80fps/GTX1070/i7-9700/16gb DDR4 on high and ultra)
Good movement mechanics, custom key bindings +1
Awesome story.

Hands down the best GT3 racing simulator to date.

Physics, audio, graphics, immersion, teams, everything is here.
No weird gimmicks, no horrible UI or workshop requirements. Just a solid amazing GT3 racing sim.

Classic titles likes these need to remain remastered since the industry is so saturated and no real decent games have released in years like these. Very happy to see this collection hit Steam.

Hoxxes IV is definitely not a habitable planet by any means unless you're an alien bug. The scariest and most deadliest planet I have ever played in a video game. With that said...

The best coop game you will ever play, loads of content to unlock and find. The procedural generation in this game is amazing, each biome has it's own "style" of cave generation. Great progression system with 6 prestige ranks each having three tiers. Class based characters with unique weapons and tools that complement other classes. Lots of goodies to explore and find, tons of different bug variations and bosses. Random events that sometimes spawn into the mission for you to find allowing you to unlock weapon meshes and skins. Several different game types by standard and also deep dives weekly for you to play in to unlock weapon over clocks. Upgrades and over clocks are your bread and butter in this game.

Even though this game is meant to be played with others you can still easily solo the game with a helper bot "bosco" who can mine minerals for you to pick up, mine out large compacted minerals and carry them to you, fight and kill bugs for you, revive you, light up caves for you, and hell even salute you when you salute him. Bosco is a solo player's best friend in this game.

I highly recommend playing with others however, the game is a total blast when you have a good team. Get in there and kill some alien bugs and litter the terrain up with flares and DRG corporate junk! Join the Intergalactic Miner's Union and get rewards if your union chapter meets it's goals. You can make the game easy Haz 1, Haz 2, or normal Haz 3, or make the game much more challenging Haz 4, and finally Haz 5 skill levels. If you're new "green beard" then I recommend at least starting on Haz 2 or 3 until you get the swing of things and learn what's expected of the class you're playing.

Veteran miners do not like green beards joining a Hazard 4 or 5 session if you have no idea what you're doing. They may give you the boot because this game is a bit rogue like and no one dwarf likes spending 15-30 mins or more just to die and lose everything.

The reviews speak for themselves, buy this game and support the devs! they are still updating the game well after 1.0!

ROCK & STONE!

A game that pushes you to your limits, gorgeous graphics, immersive audio, and tools along the way that really plug into the overall progression of the game. The story is scattered about the game world and it's your job to collect the pieces and figure out what is going on. Planet 4546B is one of the most beautiful under water game worlds I have ever seen.

The game is about exploration not combat, although you can gather and fabricate tools eventually to help repel creatures. The game is very dangerous, and is exhilarating to traverse the bioluminescence in certain biomes. Looking for tech and data to guide you on your journey to the very very deep unknown.

Awesome game great story, beautiful graphics and very immersive audio. The game design is great and flows nice. You do have to push yourself into the unknown, risk for rewards.
