This is the most polished shooter I have ever played and continue to play nightly. It has a surprisingly excellent campaign, addicting multiplayer, and most importantly fantastic movement. In a year of god-tier shooters, Titanfall 2 stands head & shoulders above the rest for being a complete and perfect package.
Growing up two of my favorites series were Harvest Moon and Animal Crossing. This game is a beautifully handcrafted love letter to both, but with a charm and feel all its own.
JUST PLAY IT! The campaign is one of the best OF ALL TIME!
This game is the dictionary definition of a "flawed masterpiece." The writing, factions, and storytelling is some of Obsidian's best, but I found the combat too monotonous (despite numerous QoL improvements) and the pacing too choppy. Not to mention I think the choices in this game do NOT amount to much in the end...
Just like Stellaris (which is not on this list), I think it will eventually become an EXCELLENT title with future updates and xpacs, but unlike the former the core experience is still a complete and worthwhile experience.
I didn't obsess over this as much as some, but I enjoyed and completed every map. Plus I got to murder Gary Busey. This is my number 1 game to watch others play (obviously)
I really only enjoyed this game casually, but I still ended up clocking in nearly 80 hours. It's a good time and fun with friends, but ultimately not something I wanted to take seriously or play solo.
My 40 hour journey to Gold rank was a trip. I haven't stuck with the game since then, but I will remember my time with it fondly.
Like DOOM, there is not much I can say aside from PLAY THIS. I can only hope one day a fleshed out sequel gets made. SUPER HOTTER?
This game is about 80% style. The gameplay is serviceable, but the atmosphere, soundtrack, and sprite work takes center stage. There is something really special about the world in here.
