Runs like garbage, even on low settings. Ugly interface.

Great game, but it can get tedious at times and the very early game is pretty much the same every time you play. Still, if you can get it on sale, it's a great buy. If you don't find it on sale, then you'll have to pay through the nose for all the DLC.

I would say that Kenshi is one of the best games I've ever played. It would easily rank in the top 10 of my all-time favorites. It feels so open, do what you want, explore, build, fight, survive. You will not regret buying this game.

One caveat, in the early parts of the game, you will be alone in a world that doesn't care about you. That can lead to periods of lonely silence.

Great game, it's like Fallout meets Paranoia. I love the UI, it's the best I've ever seen. The game's a lot of fun, very entertaining.

Rimworld is one of the most enjoyable games I've played. Watching the colonists in their struggles to survive is a real pleasure. It's easy to learn but hard to master. The graphics are clean and crisp. I even like the music, someting that I usually turn off in most games. This game has surprising depth and detail. I can't speak highly enough about it. I don't know why it's still in early access, it seems pretty complete to me. Buy it, you'll like it.

My experience with this Early Access title has been poor. I was only ever able to see one invalid Italian server in-game and was never able to play online. I don't mind lack of content, questionable game mechanics, or general bugs in an Early Access game but broken core functionality that makes playing impossible is something for which I won't settle. Companies should have a bare minimum level of completion before they start charging money. I'm sure the game will improve in time but at this point I do not recommend buying it.

Buggy as hell, but a fun game that's better than Civ V in almost every way.

I just picked this up yesterday and my experience so far has been pretty hit or miss. I've only tried it with two games so far, Civ V and Fallout 4. Civ V seemed to work well but I had numerous problems trying to get Fallout 4 running. There's a lot of moving between the couch and the PC when things don't work. Overall I'm going to give this a thumbs up but it certainly isn't perfect.

Firewatch is a very interesting game. I don't think I've played anything like it before. The graphics are nice, the dialog between characters is enjoyable and I found myself interested to the end.

Unfortunatley there are some things about the game that I do not like. One, it's very short. I've played for four hours and it's over. It also doesn't seem to have any replay value at all. I did enjoy the game but I have zero interest in ever playing it again. There isn't much interaction in the game, which is ok, but the little interaction that there is feels like it doesn't matter what decisions you make. The story keeps you interested but falls flat in places.

If you want to try something new and different, then get Firewatch. Just remember that it's not exactly a game, it's more like watching a story.

I really enjoy this game. I've wanted to play a game like this for some time now. I haven't played the previous AOW games but I'm glad I finally found this one. It's a great blend of Civ and HOMM. I like that you need to be aggressive to win. There's a lot of action and conflict.

The game has a great combination of races, spells, and units. The graphics are great and the customization of your leader are very nice. There are a ton of settings that you can adjust to enhance your game.

The multiplayer is very good. If you autofight independents then it goes by fast. There isn't a lot of waiting around for your opponent to take their turn (hello Warlock games).

I haven't even played the campaigns yet. I prefer sandbox mode.

The expansion adds a lot to the game and is reasonably priced. I bought the base game on a 50% off sale. At $20 you cannot beat it. Knowing what I do now about the game, there is no doubt I'd pay full price for it. I highly recommend it.
