Perhaps one of the biggest achievements and most memorable titles in video game history, finally available for PC owners.

Don't be fooled, it's been patched well enough and works beautifully now. And even if there are slight performance problems for some people - it's still beyond worth experiencing it yourself.

By itself - it's not bad. Borderlands-esque shooter with fun characters and nice sandbox to swoop through killing generic purple aliens with guns that got a decent kick.

But considering this a part of Arkham series, what feels like an epilogue in fact - it's kinda travesty. Both on shallow gameplay, and story that's really disgraceful to most of JL characters, especially the protagonist of the previous Rocksteady trilogy. Very unsubtle, unskilled and cringeworthy approach to "Kill Your Darlings" story - extreme reverse of, say, Injustice series.

Playing this only as an looter shooter enthusiast I would be kinda okay, and I can sort of recommend the game as that.

For fans of Rocksteady productions, or Comic Book Stuff - I suggest to definitely stay away at least for now. Maybe they will improve gameplay, maybe they will extend (and let's be honest - properly finish) the story - but that's a lot of "maybe" for sub-par product.

I mean, it's pretty playable.

But still a massive insult to Silent Hill as a series.

My official "Best Game Ever".

Unforgettable story, incredibly written characters, unique setting, remarkable depth and mature approach.
Simply a game You just have to play through at least once in your life.

Experience how much can be done when formulaic shackles are torn off and the developer wants to make truly ambitious piece of art in video game form.

Priceless relic of times before Season Passes, cutting out content and demanding action shooty bang bang over any kind of thoughtful experience. As valuable and playable now as the day it was released.

"Suprisingly decent" doesn't give it justice. This is actually pretty solid piece of Action RPG set in very grim Dark Fantasy setting.

Despite it's obvious and pretty serious flaws - like parts of voice-acting, lack of dodge roll and tricky parry mechanic - it is still totally worth buying on Steam Sale or when price drops further.

My favourite Lovecraftian-themed game ever created, and favourite Roguelike ever made.

Perfect world building, incredible atmosphere, and true feeling of dread make this game and it's DLC a must play for everyone who loves RPGs, Mordheim and horror in general.

Neat little addition to venerable and beloved series.
Even without space battles it still is Homeworld at the very core, somewhere mixed with elements of classic RTS games like Dune or CnC, and including pretty excellent storyline on top of everything.

That's how a story about "The Last Jedi" should be done - and perhaps the best use of Star Wars IP to date.

It is flawed, buggy, unoptimized and limited as hell. But this is not the worst about it.

The worst is the fact that this game is, well.. soulless. Committee-approved, bland and completely devoid of teeth and personality of the first two Thief titles, heck - even the third one. And one of the best antiheroes in the industry got changed into Batman-wannabe stock character, and unlikeable Mary Sue on top of that.
