I have a lot of feedback to give, but more than anything, I love the music, please stop slowing and distorting it every other time I use an ability. I need to here Scylla sing but also not die and it's hard to do both.

Fantastic follow up to one of my favorite games tho.

I'm watching you

This game is great, well made, devs have done quite a bit right with it, but the community is awful. Every random queue game is sweaty. VFA has ruined this game, no fun allowed.

Tails.
Tails the trash can.
Tails we must.

I have gotten way more than my money's worth with this game. Sitting in a voice chat with some friends, drinking and talking and getting salty at each other when we lose, it's a good time I keep coming back to.

How had I never left a review for TF2?
This game might not be worth playing today, it's piss old and its age is showing, but the game really is unstoppable. It's never been put in its grave, and certainly not for lack of trying.

Usually, when a company is riddled with scummy practices and scandal, the games they make are only mediocre and safe at best but never bad. EU4 is proof that Paradox makes good games poorly.

Also I didn't understand combat at even a basic level until I'd put in about 200 hours so there's a high skill floor for ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sure, but the depth and gameplay variety makes it worth it.
