Destiny 2 lets you jump, slide, and shoot your way through waves of interesting and unique enemies while rocking some cursed/questionable/dope af armor.

It's like Iron Man meets John Wick, with a dash of space cocaine/magic...

Couldn't recommend it enough!

Played on PC and Switch.
Easily one of my favorite games of the year!
PC version occasionally has weird glitches but nothing major.
I HIGHLY recommend this game!

In all honestly, I walked into this game pretty blind as to what it was.

I knew it had a bullet hell type combat system and that there was something to do with hats. I had also heard from Toborprime's stream how beautiful, fun, and awesome this game was. So I gave it a shot.

Well, 10hrs and a couple cups of coffee later... I'm addicted through and through (to the game that is, the coffee addiction was pre-existing)

I loved everything from the unique type of hats you can wear (most are references to pop culture both old and new), to the dialogue you have with each boss. I mean... I killed one of the level bosses and he went down in a blaze of glory lamenting that now he'll never get to see Pitch Perfect 3. Awesome.

Just imagine flying through the air, shooting lethal smiley faces at enemies with a "friendship" gun, while wearing a garbage bin costume....and winning! Not to mention that the boss is literally an amalgamation of what is probably Dr.Robotnik's spare robot building parts.

However, there are some things that did initially affect my opinion of the game.
When you first start the game, you're given a tutorial on what each menu does, how it affects you and etc.
The problem is, once those menu tutorials are over, you're left to your own devices in the command center. With no direction on how to proceed, what you're "1st mission is" or etc. I was completely overwhelmed till I started just clicking on things and figuring it all out. In a way, this isn't so bad because it forces the player to learn what everything does, but it also serves as a point of frustration that may turn some away.
Once you find the groove, that overwhelming feeling never really comes back, cause you understand the signal and the noise (signal being the main campaign levels and progression with the noise being the kite flying, pet gathering, endless levels mode, arcade machine and varioius other things).

Not really sure how that could be lessened unless the player is given their first fight before being plunged into the command center full of options, or something to that tune.

All in all, it's a really minor frustration that didn't lessen my experience of the game as I moved forward. I loved exploring everything it had to offer. I even got all the achievements, which I almost never do for any game!

You can easily see the passion and skill the team poured into this game with every art asset, menu screen, secret achievement, music, and dialogues. It's definitely worth everyone's time.

I highly recommend Boss 101!

30 minutes in and I had non-stop goose bumps. The binural audio is used in an innovative way to make you really feel attached to the character. Loving everything about this game! :D

An incredibly heartfelt and open narrative exploring the hard to understand fraility of the human experience and dealing with others.

10/10 100%

$80 invested into this game (season pass included) and steam gives me the wrong game code. 5 days later after submitting a steam support ticket and I'm still hanging dry with no solution. I don't even know how Watch Dogs is but between steam and ubisoft, i'm pretty frakking frustrated. This is quite unacceptable.
