Pro: Amazing telltale style choice game

Cons: Medium amounts of impressively unfunny trademark Critical Role™ humor, Moistcritical

The pro very much outweighs the cons, don't miss this one

-- 30 hours in skate insider access --

Yeah, it's true this one feels a bit more sanitized than previous entries but the game is legit fun. There are no restrictions on where you can go or the places you can skate in, it's pretty generous for a free to play game. Obviously the cosmetics for your skater is the live service treadmill you're put on but as a casual game to mess around in with friends I think it's awesome. The broken physics are encouraged this time around and they give you the tools to really zip around at high speeds or drop into a pipe at terminal velocity and fly. What's here is a great starting point and I can't wait to see how the game turns out

I don't think this was as overall a good story as A Way Out (definitely better than It Takes Two) but this outing's gameplay blows this studio's other ones out of the water. This game is a notebook that's a distillation of pure creativity and it just lets you rip through it at breakneck speed. Loved the main duo's development and the frankly insane bombastic final level, though the villain being cartoonishly one-dimensional is really my only criticism of the game. Gotta give props to EA for wisely trusting this studio to make what they want to make, eagerly looking forward to the next one.

This game is very boring and is weirdly all about being a runescape clone but insists on not having any of the fun or reasons to keep playing like runescape does.

Amazing card game that people were way too tough on; go into this game with the knowledge that it is not XCOM with superheroes, it's Slay the Spire/Inscryption/Magic the Gathering deckbuilding with superheroes

Bro you accidentally left my review on read haha pls just try it bro please

[Review unrelated to recent PSN account fiasco that has since been resolved.]

One of the most fun cooperative shooters I've ever played that is completely ruined by developers who can't fix anything, sell items that are continuously broken/nerfed into un-usability, and seem to not actively play the game they themselves make.

I want to love this game but it's extremely hard to when it's a coin flip on top of a dice roll on top of a dart throw on if you'll feel like what the game makes you put up with is fun or fair from patch to patch.

I personally will compare every buddy cop dynamic in games to the pairing of the player character and Kim Kitsuragi after completing this. Stellar character writing, utterly bizarre world building, and a pressure cooker of a murder investigation that spirals out of control. This is an absolutely unforgettable experience if you love detective games, or just games that push the boundaries of storytelling in the medium.

Immortality is hard to put into a box. It's largely a passive experience, you're sifting through literal hours of movie footage (including completed takes, rehearsals, behind-the-scenes, promotional material, etc.) and piecing together a VERY fractured narrative. It's an absolute must play if you value experimental storytelling or if you're looking for something new.

It is quite lengthy for an entirely story-based game, it took me 16 hours to see the ending but it's all anchored by outstanding layered performances (the actors you see in this game, play actors who are playing characters). In particular, the lead actress who ends up playing like 7 people, totally anchors the story. And even further, the experience is just something that sticks with you. There's technically three movies of entirely separate stories, with one persistent thread unraveling throughout the production of all of them. Really, it's something that can only be told through a video game; and this is definitely the kind of game that comes around every so often that redefines what you think is possible in the medium. Big thumbs up from me,

I don't even get the privilege of watching the 12fps opening of the game since this mess crashes on startup
