Its got the right parts, but its not the right game.
Please don't make a destiny clone, we want our PVP arena shooter back.

A vehicle combat simulator with sketchy balancing. Graphics and combat are well done and well thought out, and it can be fun, especially in the World War 2 Era. However, this game will make you angry person with more undue stress in your life. I haven't played it in a few years, but I do remember that if you wanted to make consistent progress, it does require a handful of micro-transactions. It's "Free 2 Play", pay to progress. A combination of factors make the game soul crushing, such as very long 'research' bars and trees that require hundreds/thousands of very good games, struggling to keep up with game economy, and fighting against decked out whales. Overall, its a very long and unenjoyable time commitment engineered to force money out of you to skip the grind.

This is the successor to Gmod Tower. It is a multiplayer party game with a dozen so minigames and a inbuilt house decorating simulator. It has a relatively small global and mostly unmoderated community, so expect to see familiar faces if you play it consistently. The minigames are simple and fun if you have friendly competition and maybe a few drinks. If you don't like strangers, you can always host "Friends Only" servers.

a 3D uncapped rougelike shooter. Things get out of hand very fast in a fun way. There's three real states of the game: You are either struggling, dominating, or you're doing okay and then you suddenly die from nothing. Its a fun game, debatably better with friends when they steal all of your loot and you watch the game from the grave for the next 30 minutes.

Top down shooter Rougelike with well thought out weapon mechanics. Challanging and rewarding gameplay. Very fun weapons and abilities, made better with multiplayer co-op. Well worth its full price.

A cyberpunk 2D platformer/slasher. Great controls and music with a good, short story. Well worth its full price.

A cult favorite.

Its half cultist simulator, half melee rougelike, similar to Hades. Its a fun and cute game, has a few bugs but its a relatively new game that suggests it has more content being developed in the future. Its a full working game, I strongly recommend it at full price.

This isn't to addon to the Chinese negative review spam, I do not care about the Wukong nerf. This is a general review aimed at new players considering to get the game.

That being said, I strongly believe the game is new player unfriendly.

This game is an MMO casual hack and slash shooter. On the surface and in practice, the gameplay loop is very simple, and its enjoyable. However, if you wanted to make some serious progress, you require hundreds of hours of time investment and multiple deep dives into the wikipedia. There's a lot of feature and content creep in the game just due to its age, and if you're starting out fresh on a F2P account, you will be behind the curve and struggling to keep up with even the most basic missions with no clear direction to go other than unlocking the entire map. I would say its fun with friends, but if there's a serious gap in Mastery Rank, you will be eating dust trying to catch up to your friends while they power carry you thru missions.

The game is fun if you are willing to put forward the effort and learn its deeper mechanics. To get some of the higher end gear requires a combination of commitment to the trading system, multiple micro-transactions of the game's premium currency, and/or weeks worth of grinding.

Dwarven Arcade Shooter with ammo and resource management. Fun weapons, fights, and good controls. Its well worth the full $. Its fun with friends, but is also enjoyable Solo or with randoms. Only criticism is that it requires some time investment to get into, and an understanding of the resource mechanics. The gameplay loop can get repetitive after a while, but its a lot better when youve had a few to drink :)

Total War Fantasy is a good introduction into Total War games and Warhammer Fantasy. The initial buy-in cost is pretty high, but it isn't as high as it seems. You do need both base games of TWH1 and TWH2, and maybe a few DLCs for your favorite factions, but you don't require all of them, if at all.
The gameplay is fun and there's a very high level of attention to details. The entire development team put a lot of effort into this game and it shows. That being said, it is very taxing on most computer systems, and it does have some high minimum requirements. If you can run this game, its well worth its price, though I recommend waiting for sales if you want to buy DLC.
