[Switch] Best game on my Switch aside from Breath of the Wild. Captivated me from moment one, and kept me going more than any Metroidvania game has. It's my first one of the genre I've ever completed, actually!
[Switch] One of the best party games I've ever played. One of three video games my wife will play with me, too. Huge bonus points there. I love how actual communication with people next to you is effectively a mechanic of the game. I can't imagine doing as well at this game staying silent.
[Switch] Super punishing, super fun game. The art and music are essential to the experience, giving this game its *styyyle*. The walking segments between fights are terribly boring, though.
[Switch] Wrapped up the main game + DLC this year, despite starting this immediately when I got my Switch at the end of 2017. Magical experience through and through.
[PC] Just started this one (October 2018) but DANG it's good. Huge fan of Giant Bomb's videos around this game, but I've really started to appreciate them even more now having finally played the game. Sean Bean promo for Hitman 2 got me to finally play this masterpiece.
[PC] So addicting, and filled my Hearthstone-shaped hole in my heart that had me considering going back to that money sink. Glad to have found this game. However, if the art doesn't get a significant upgrade before 1.0, I'll be shocked. I love *playing* the game, but *looking* at it is another story.
[PC] Art = good. Gameplay/loop = satisfying. All-in-all a super fun game I'll keep coming back to.
[PC] Loved FTL with all my heart when it came out, and now we have a proper followup from Subset. This game rules, met all of my expectations and more, and is even more challenging than FTL in many ways, but as they've mentioned on the GOTY discussions, it most always feels *fair*. Sunk a good few dozen hours in so far, and I'll definitely revisit it from time to time.
[PC] I wanted this game to be more fun than it was. The art and music are right up my alley, and the single player is pretty fun with neat scenarios. But, after a number of repeated "cheap" losses on a single mission, I got fed up with the single player content. Stack that alongside a dying community around the game from day one, and I just couldn't play much longer. I really wanted it to be more, but I fear it just got swept under the rug by many soon after release.
[PC] A friend encouraged me to go for this one on a good sale. I am not a military shooter guy, generally speaking, but this one is... better than many! Honestly I'm just too bad to really get into it. And the combinations of characters, teams, equipment is so daunting. But I'll probably keep playing a session here and there.
