I honestly cannot remember the last time I've laughed this much at videogame dialogue. It's genuinely funny and heartfelt. Did not expect to like this as much as I did, would recommend to anyone who enjoys a good story and characters.

The gameplay itself is fairly surface level, but I still had a good time with the actual dispatching part of the game. I liked seeing my "heroes" level up and solving the different situations.

One of the games that influenced me the most during my mid teens. It's such a gem of a game. Great cast, great music, great style. The weakest part of the game is it's combat, and that's fairly understandable. The strongest however is the actual graffiti part of it. It's so incredibly unique and I would advise anyone to play it, as long as they can stomach the PS2 era graphics and controls. Personally, I love it.

I truly loved Hades (1) as it hit all the spots I want in a game. I was hyped for the sequel, and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ does it deliver!
I felt it started a bit slow, but once it gets going, it's a blast. The combat and general feel of the game is top notch, and the voice acting is great as always with Supergiant. I would say the story isn't as strong as the first one, but that's a really high bar to reach. Truly a 9/10, would recommend to most people.

This is one of the best remakes I have played (along with RE2 and RE4). I had little faith when they first announced it but man was I wrong! The sound design alone, is 15/10 in this game, the visuals are great and the story remained faithful (which is a difficult task these days). My only gripe is that it felt a bit long/poor pacing towards the end, but it still kept me engaged and I couldn't stop playing. Definitely recommend this one to anyone who likes psychological horror games, with great themes.

Went into this game thinking "looks neat, let me check it out". 50 hours had suddenly passed and I didn't know which day it was. Great game, recommend it to anyone who likes fun mechanics.

This is hands down one of the most fun coop experiences I have ever had. It takes me back to playing L4D and games like that with my friends back in the day. The guns feel good, the sound and visual design is top notch, the humour/satire is hilarious, simply love it!

Yes the game has suffered from it's own success and has server issues during peak hours, but this will obviously be fixed. The game itself though is top notch and I would recommend it to anyone who likes fun.

Great game! It takes a while to get into it, roughly 4-5 hours, and it's not great at actually telling you what you SHOULD do first so you can possibly end up making things a lot harder than they need to be. That being said, get the master riposte or whatever it's called asap and you should be fine in basically all 1v1's.

There are a bunch of fun gameplay mechanics, my favorite being Alchemy. I have never had actual fun reading a cook book before, so that was a new experience.

Last thing about gameplay, it's actually pretty scuffed if you fight more than 2-3 people at once, the camera goes haywire and you will in a lot of cases end up dead because of it. Though, if you want to be "realistic" about it, fighting 7 dudes at the same time isn't advisable generally, so there's that.

Gameplay aside the world looks very pretty and is historically accurate, though does at times feel somewhat empty if you're used to other open world games. Then again, it's a smaller studio.

All in all, fun game, would reccomend to anyone who likes RPG's, a good and unique combat system and fun mechanics in general.
