A delightful return of the classic story with a whole slew of new content for you to explore and enjoy. I would wait for a sale but it is 100% worth it.

I know people like to mention Gaijin Entertainment and "scummy business practices" but Wargaming has to be the worst when it comes to scummy business practices. I'm not even going to mention the whole Community Contributor fiasco, though you can look it up yourself and I highly recommend you do before you play this game just so you can get a feel for what the devs really see the players as. That is, big walking wallets who exists to buy the broken ♥♥♥♥ they peddle month after month. It's a fun game with friends, but you'll often find yourself being upset because your match was ruined by something entirely out of your control, with Wargaming gladly presenting the alternative of just paying to progress.

Wow, this game was made in 2014 and it still crashes like a mofo for no apparent reason. Hell, even as a STALKER vet I'm shocked with how much this game likes to crash. Fortunately I got this in a bundle with the other two games in the series but stay the hell away from this game. If you want to play 2033, just play the original. Crashing this game seems to be a "new feature" added with the redux version.

Great game, but you're gonna have a better experience playing the standalone DCS OpenBeta client, downloaded from their website.

I highly recommend you get this game and go in completely blind. To give you the most non-descript summary I can, you take the role of an insurance inspector in 1807 to calculate the cost of damages when a derelict ship drifts back into port. And honestly, that's all I think I need to say before I feel like I start taking away from the magic of the game. I think you will have a great time playing this, even if you aren't a fan of detective games.

RIP John Madden, hero to all astronuts on Moonbase Alpha

A lovely game where you walk around a desolate, jarring landscape filled with space-time anomalies that tear you to shreds and monsters that will decimate you. It's all fun and games until you reach into your vest for a new mag, load it, and then hear *click* *click* *click* *click*.

A must-have for people who are fans of S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Roadside Picnic, or Metro. There's some story to this game but it's not heavily focused on or emphasized. Gameplay mechanics are satisfying and things like sorting out your backpack and cleaning your guns becomes a therapeutic task.

Overall I'm satisfied with the multiplayer beta. The gunplay is good, although some guns could use tweaking to damage and recoil. Of course everyone's current gripe is the progression and the BP, which I agree with: it should be improved. It's fun playing cross-platform with my friends on Xbox, and the game is easy to approach for PC players who haven't really had a chance to get into Halo. Considering the flopped launches of CoD Vanguard and Battlefield 2042, this will likely be the game I will play during the Holiday season this year. We'll see what the campaign will be like soon.

A game where you'll play for 7 hours, die in a blink, and immediately click *restart* to play again.

Subverts every expectation. I won't say anything else because the best way to enjoy this game is with no context.
