psychological horror tag is very accurate

You could say, I had a 'blast' with this game 8^)

Like with previous Half Life games, Valve once more did an absolutely outstanding job with this game. I can't think of other developers, that are as passionate about making games like Valve is. There are many things, that make this game good, a nice balance between puzzles and shooting sequences, with the classic top-tier story, make it super exciting from the very start. The different elements alone wouldn't make this a great game, but how everything is presented, how polished and well-made it is, makes it a mind-blowing experience, that couldn't work better in any other environment than in virtual reality. It's because of this, I'm sure many elements seen in Alyx will be groundbreaking for the gaming industry in the future.
See you all in 2045, when Half Life 3 finally releases!

Is quite fun, also very challanging to keep your multiplier up with cops driving way crazier than in Grand Theft Auto. The only downside for me is clearly: Too many lampposts >:(

should have sticked to mobile

I got this for free, so I won't complain, since I loved the heists in the original ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Swearing Simulator 2014

After a full hour of wandering around in the middle of nowhere, I started to doubt, that animals actually exist in this game.

This is the kind of game we always wanted, but never knew we did.

Always close to death of starvation, you go out in the safe night (not really safe, let's say less dangerous than the bright day) to scavenge other survivors hideouts, having to decide, if you are going to take whatever you can carry, or at least leave this old couple some bandages and a bit of food to survive the day after. On the one hand it's only about the survival of your own people. But keep in mind, whoever is out there is suffering as much as you do.
You'll have to decide what is right, or what you think is right.

And I swear to god, it is going to tear you apart, taking the last bit of medicine this sick man has left, while this lady has severe wounds that have to be treated daily with the last bandages those survivers have left, or having to kill a family father in self-defense. Much like in 'Papers, Please!', most of your decisions feel wrong, but sadly are necassary.

No bugs, no issues, couldn't find a thing to complain about the game.
Overall: heartbreaking and cruel, yet you can't stop playing, because of it's beautiful kind of design, atmosphere, and soundtrack. Go and get it.

Exciting gameplay, amazing music, awesome community. One of the most entertaining games of all time for me.
