Early Access Review
So my initial thoughts on this game are:
-New Waifu WOOOO.
-Pet the FROG
-It absolutely looks like Hades but looks more "witchy" and blue-ish world.
-I can turn into a fu*kin sheep!
-Banger soundtrack right ahead.
I can honestly say the 15 bucks that was meant to feed me for 3 days was worth it to get the game at Early Access.

I have never played the OG System Shock before, but I played the 2nd game first and now got the chance to experience the remake.
This is before and after the 1.2 update; Nightdive Studios delivered a better OG game experience. I knew it was gonna be some cyberpunk world from the game start—the revamped visuals, the thriller in each level, and, of course, its gameplay mechanics. I really liked how the puzzles are different for each player who has the game.
SHODAN is still as terrifying as the 2nd game, but more HD, and her voice acting was on point; SHODAN remains one of gaming's most unforgettable villains, a malevolent AI whose twisted logic and megalomaniacal ambitions constantly threaten humanity.
The ending fight improved after the 1.2 update, with more weapons to use and a slight puzzle-solving in it.
In conclusion, System Shock is a shining example of how to modernize a classic while staying true to its roots respectfully. With its stunning visuals, refined gameplay, and compelling narrative, the game offers an unforgettable journey through a cybernetic nightmare.

It is never too late to play this game!

This game has been sitting in my library for almost 2 years despite knowing that I know this game was out in 2015. For some reason, I left it out to play the game in the meantime because I finished other games that I got and I know this game is going to be a long one (Hence why I got 150 hours for now) so in order my review won't be a 10-page essay I'm going to keep it as short as possible.

This game is an absolute masterpiece like actually it can be described with many positive compliments. This is the best RPG open-world-based game that I've ever played and still will play it again. The story, gameplay, atmosphere, soundtrack, visuals, and the DLC all of that it's just too good, I really loved the Blood & Wine DLC, IMO I find that it has the best world design of the others on the map.

I kind of regret not playing some years before but at the same time the game now from what I've seen looks better and it keeps up with other modern games that are out there.

The story of this game is straight-up bold and accurate, with many characters, lovely character design, the choices that can change up the situations and the endings, and of course, this is waaaay better than watching Netflix's version of The Witcher which is "meh" some of it but it got carried by the appearance of Henry Cavill (sadly not anymore).

So to sum things up, this game F u c k s, it's one of the games you should play even if you aren't into gaming, the whole game with the DLCs must-get! I like how the DLCs are like a complement to the core game, and despite minor bugs and flaws, this game is 10/10 totally recommended.

For a free fan-made mod of Half-Life 2, this one is actually worth it! The story of hunting down Judith and having the Borealis involved sounds somewhat logical and makes you again request HL3 by any means. I liked the gameplay with how the weapons operate but they over-exaggerated the recoil on the AR weapons. But overall it's a nice mod to play I recommend it to the HL fandom and remember to take Wilson with you!

Dishonored 2 is a genuine, brilliant, true successor to Dishonored, after approx 54 hours on it with 3 gameplays and 100% achievement unlocked, this game is totally worth it.

To make this short as possible, I really admired the game with its design, gameplay, and many more. The game (to me at least) is more logical to play as Emily is the main protagonist (stealthy, non-lethal), with better Outsider abilities that you can play around with through the entire playthrough.

The game is really well-built, "The Clockwork Mansion", and "A Crack in the Slab" levels are my favorites and so are too for many players who played it and I like how it's engineered to play with powers and without when you get to reach and climb stuff.

The graphics are amazing, a noticeable upgrade from the first game with better paintings and better scenery. The story is straightforward, nothing too confusing just that I had to know the stories of the previous Dishonored DLCs so I can understand who tf is Delilah really.

In summary, this amazing sequel exceeded my expectations of what I thought the game would be, only that I'm surprised Corvo could talk! It is fun with gameplay, mechanics, and level design.

Dishonored, is an FPS game with a similar playstyle to Bioshock but with magic and a "Steampunk" world. I didn't get to play this game until months ago when I know fully that this game existed and it looks perfect so I must try it someday.

The story of this game is good and somewhat predictable in the middle of it (at least for me), you are Corvo Attano, a bodyguard for the empress and you get framed for her murder so you become an infamous assassin to go out seeking the truth about who killed the empress and Dunwall in general. There's much more of the lore to it if you spend time reading the notes and books you found in the game.

The gameplay is fun, it can be fast and lethal or slow and stealthy for those who are suckers for achievements, with your left hand as you cast supernatural powers of many makes you feel like playing Bioshock which I quite like.

With amazing art style and visuals, the design of the city is gorgeous with its dark appearance, clouds, and sunsets, design of the characters fits the steampunk world, and it reminds me of the atmosphere of Half-Life 2 yet to discover that the art director of the game is the same who did it to Half-Life 2, very based. The soundtrack is also great I guess, can't remember much about how it was while I'm writing this review.

In conclusion, "a must-play" game honestly, it's one of the best games that came in the last decade, totally recommended.

Difficulty like Katana Zero, atmosphere like Cyberpunk, and parkour like Mirrors Edge. This game gathers them all!
Enjoyable game with its fast-paced adrenaline gameplay but it consumes your sanity if you are short-tempered (especially on Hardmode) because you gonna be spamming R every 10 seconds, I found that it helps improve your reflexes so that time after time you find some levels easy to take on. Predictable story but it's not bad, kind of good. Great visuals and a greater soundtrack fit so well with the gameplay. Overall it's a nice game, hoping that Ghostrunner 2 come out better with more new things.

A cozy chill game with nice soundtracks, story wise, nothing special unless if interreacted with the environment of the stories told in the game (which you can't). Recommended for a lay-down relax type of game.

Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth.
-- Khalil Gibran.
Based game, it continues what was foreshadowed in the prequels (I guess?). Nevertheless, great game with story that is almost relatable to our reality Rn, except worse or will be.
