⭐ Rating: 10/10

Ragnarök delivers everything you could want in a sequel—brutal combat, breathtaking visuals, and an emotionally charged story that brings Kratos’ Norse saga to an unforgettable conclusion.

✅ Pros:

Incredible Storytelling – A gripping narrative with deep character development.

Refined Combat – Smoother, more versatile combat with new weapons and abilities.

Stunning Visuals & Performance – Gorgeous environments, fluid animations, and excellent optimization.

Exploration & Side Content – Expansive worlds filled with meaningful side quests and secrets.

Memorable Boss Fights – Every battle feels epic, with creative enemy designs.


❌ Cons:

Some pacing issues in the middle of the story.

A few sections feel a bit too guided compared to the first game.


🎮 Final Verdict:
If you loved 2018’s God of War, Ragnarök is an absolute must-play. Bigger, better, and more emotionally impactful, it cements Kratos as one of gaming’s greatest characters. Don’t miss this one!

Firewatch Review: A Hauntingly Beautiful Story of Isolation and Connection
Rating: 8.5/10

Pros:
✔️ Stunning visuals and immersive atmosphere
✔️ Excellent voice acting and character writing
✔️ Engaging mystery with emotional depth
✔️ Well-paced storytelling and environmental storytelling

Cons:
❌ Some loose ends in the story
❌ Limited interactivity beyond walking and dialogue

Review:
Firewatch is a unique narrative-driven adventure that immerses players in the vast wilderness of Wyoming, blending mystery, personal drama, and psychological tension. Developed by Campo Santo, the game puts you in the role of Henry, a man seeking escape from his troubled past by taking a summer job as a fire lookout. Your only human connection is Delilah, your supervisor, who communicates via radio, leading to some of the best voice-acted conversations in gaming.

The game excels in atmosphere, with breathtaking landscapes that shift between tranquil beauty and eerie solitude. The writing is sharp, and the evolving dynamic between Henry and Delilah feels incredibly real, balancing humor, flirtation, and emotional weight. As the mystery unfolds—strange occurrences, missing persons, and the feeling of being watched—the game builds tension without relying on cheap scares.

However, Firewatch does leave some unanswered questions, and while the conclusion is poignant, some players may find it lacking resolution. That said, the journey is what makes Firewatch special, not just the destination.

For those who enjoy story-driven experiences, emotional narratives, and atmospheric exploration, Firewatch is a must-play. It’s not about action or puzzles—it’s about human connection, loss, and the weight of solitude.

I finally got around to finishing the game up. I have to say even though with the bugs it was a good game at release but after CD Projekt Red fixed a lot of these and added quality to life enhancements it turned into to a great game.

This story is extremely deep, very well written and makes you set back and think. Life isn't always a 100% happy ending and this is one of the few games that actually shoves that in your face. I wouldn't change a thing about the story and it felt very fitting. I am looking forward to the squeal.

Why on earth though was Gwent not in the game!?!?!?!?
