Now that Sony's reversed their decision to block almost 200 countries from playing this, I can give a glowing review!

Helldivers 2 is one of the best co-op gaming experiences in many years, and is incredibly easy to recommend. I don't think anyone needs to be convinced by this game anymore, it's truly a monumental achievement and will hopefully stand to have a long lifespan similar to other teamwork based games such as Deep Rock Galactic. The community is passionate - as evidenced by the extreme upheaval recently -, the developers are receptive to the community yet have a backbone and a vision, and the game itself is fantastic and continues to receive regular high quality content. It is one of the few live service games that has ever been worth spending time and money on, and I'm delighted that the incredible people at Arrowhead can go back to working on this gem without the crushing weight of Sony's incompetent decision, hopefully for a long while.

Hi-Rez got rid of Cards Unbound, and is legitimately listening to the community now. I definitely recommend this game now. It's one of the few really fun free games out there.

I made my friends so mad they stopped talking to me.

10/10 would buy again.

Serious review though, this game is great with friends. Honestly, the 20 minutes I spent playing this game were some of the most fun I've had playing a multiplayer game. It has two very well made levels at this time of development, but is seriously lacking content. As it's early access, I can completely forgive it for that. I really hope that the developers add in new levels soon, or at the least open up a level editor and make a steam workshop section. As soon as they do that, this game will be my favorite multiplayer game.

Get this game, and buy a few copies for your friends. You will not regret it.

theHunter is a very detailed, beautiful, and somewhat immersive hunting game. And it's free. The actual tracking mechanics are very easy to grasp and they work well for a game that seems to focus on patience and careful, calculated movements. The small GPS-like tool you use to track and use as a map is a good addition and it works perfectly with the concepts. The shooting mechanics in the game are basic from my experience, but it works well.
The game itself is absolutely stunning looking, the graphics and the sound work on it are almost unmatched by any other game, especially other hunting games. The feeling of the world is very immersive and it is almost perfect. But it is very difficult to run on a lower end computer.
Me, being someone who has gone out to many forests and reserves to hike and take pictures, was astonished by how easily the game immersed me into it. The sounds, as I said, are fantastic. The graphics are fantastic also, being one of the best looking games I have played in a long time.
As the hunting part goes, it works very nicely. The tracking system is great, the animal AI is fair, and the movements of your character and the controls are great also.
The biggest problem is the subscription system. You can only hunt Mule Deer unless you pay for either a 3 month, 6 month or 12 month subscription to access the other licenses. Also, you can't host your own multiplayer games without a subscription.

Pros: Beautiful looking and sounding, great hunting mechanics, immersive

Cons: Difficult to run on a low end PC, Sometimes lengthy and boring hunts, you need to pay real money to get licenses to hunt any other animal than the Mule Deer.

Overall, if you are a hunting fan or love good looking games. I think this is perfectly enjoyable.

It's fun.
