I just love this little game, the story is interesting and the world art is SOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!
I can't get enough of the stylization of the entire env, all the models are so pretty, and the exploration is extremely engaging and fun.

Also, Mr. Fox is best char.
Also also, I have to say, best customer service ever. Iykyk

Yet another example of Ubisoft being Ubisoft: the porting is so bad, the game won't even start.

On booting, i always just get the Ubi logo, then the Abstergo Entertainment one, then the title screen of AC Rogue.. then the black screen. And, after just one or two alt tabbing, the crashing of the game.

The internet is just full of decade-old forums with so many people with the same problem, and yet not a single soul has a cause nor a fix for this problem. This is so dumb

Loved this little gem!
The art direction of lighting and environments is great, and the music is exceptional <3
The puzzles are quite stimulating and unique, never seen anything like it.
Highly recommended

This is honestly the best combination of epic music and visuals, goofy moments and raw tactcal action. There's zero farming, no over-complicated mechanics, a lot of replayability and tons of fun both with randos and friends. This game managed to be really entertaining both for casual and serious playtime.

---FOR HUMANITY, FOR DEMOCRACY, FOR SUPER EARTH!

This... this is really endearing.

This visual novel is a quite rare mix of snappy jokes and profound themes at the same time.
It juggles the heavy subjects of friendships, loss, passing, life, death and everything in between, but always with the right amount of thoughtfulness, well balancing the hardship of knowing when to make fun of a character and when to take thinks seriously.

The inserting of Australian slang really gives it all a unique charm, the story is very well written, and the music is surprisingly calming and relaxing --- I could listen at it for hours, and I ended up saving the album in my Spotify library <3

This has quickly become one of my favorite games ever, and I'm convinced that even without the Harry Potter IP, this would still have been a massive success.

The first word that comes to mind describing this game is "rich":
the environment is so full of life and little details, that even if you stop looking at the macro aesthetic of it all and start focusing on the smaller bits and pieces composing both the building interiors and the lush nature outside, you would be astonished at the cure and love the art team put in.
The love they showed for this little big gem is amazing, and the amount of original, unique and interesting assets they created needs to be commended.

The castle exploration could have been an entire game in and of itself, being so complex and intricate in all of its winding corridors and hidden rooms. Every wing and section of the structure proves unique, with always new trinkets and knick-knacks in every corner that really encourages you to roam around with the certainty of never getting bored.

Quite paradoxically, the exploration of the outside woods, countryside, shores and mountains shows the very same level of cure and attention reserved for the castle and village: the hazy colors and low contrast values always make you feel like you fell into a dreamy painting, with an immense variety of trees and flowers and bushes and rocks that will never get repetitive, all while clearly portraying the unique biomes of each region of the map.

Also, all the sections for the Ancient Magic interaction are completely original to the game, but still managed to be completely coherent with the surrounding world, and i just loved the crystal-and-gold aesthetic chosen by the devs.

Lastly, the story is really intriguing and never gets boring, not even of a single mission, with the game managing to add always new mechanics even well over the half line, keeping you surprised and engaged along the whole playthrough.

I highly suggest checking out the art book, it's definitely one of the best I have in my library!

Like the snow? The mountains, the fog, the winter? then get on board one of the most memorable experiences of your life!
You'll get to roleplay as a dragon-slaying hero in the beautiful landscape of Skyrim, explore the rich villages and cities, and get to know the villagers' stories and intrigues from the courts.

Get a sword or a great hammer, or a bow if you prefer. Maybe attack or control magic, or some alchemy perhaps? There are so many different ways to enjoy the game that you'll absolutely feel the need for a second run just to see what happens with another approach.

If you enjoy the cold seasons, the entire mood of this game will make you feel at home in no time.

The peak of high fantasy game play. There are so many different ways to play with different classes, so many minute details that could potentially change your story in a radical way.

All the companions have interesting stories that you get to explore while following the main quest, the exploration is immersive and rich, and the world art is phenomenal. Definitely a must have

If you are coming from the Souls saga and you think you are ready to tackle this --- you are not.

The muscle memory that you've trained so far will probably only hinder you, and there is a high probability that in the beginning you'll hate this game. When you start, a lot of the animations from normal enemies are basically invisible, parries make no sense, and you can't even evade for saving yourselves with i-frames.

With that said:
This game is freaking great. Definitely not better than the Souls saga like I've heard so many times IMO, but it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ good.

When your new muscle memory starts to take shape, when you learn to spam the parry button in front of new enemies to learn their patterns, when you start clashing and deflecting swords rather than just attacking, that's when the game starts to get seriously fun.

The world is gorgeous, the story rich, the bosses challenging without being totally unfair, the movement so fluid. This is definitely one mandatory step in the journey of any FromSoft enjoyer.
Just remember: this is not a souls game... It's a rhythm game. You have been warned.

a game that tickled my very smooth brain, and i loved every second of it.
reminds me of the good non-euclidian times inside Antichamber.
