I’ve always loved this game since the day I got it on mobile quite a few years ago. Even though I wasn’t around to experience some of the old-school stuff, I’m somehow a little sad a lot of it got removed or went unimplemented..? I’m not sure how to explain it other than that, but Terraria is still a great game nonetheless. If you haven’t played it yet, I highly recommend trying it out at least once,

Looks fun and all, but I can’t run it on my 8-year-old laptop that supposedly has used parts. Will be more than happy to try and play it once I get something better.

TL;DR: Game good, laptop bad, need better laptop to play game.

TF2 may be having a bot crisis currently, but that's not a flaw with the game itself, it's a flaw with human biology and the ever-present greed of wanting to be "better" without putting in any effort. Take it how you want, that's just my logical view on this. None of the issues we've had with cheaters takes away from the game at its core: Semi-serious team-based gameplay, with a multitude of customization choices. I started playing TF2 around the summer of 2019, if I recall correctly, and have loved the game since the first minute I played. I've watched countless TF2 videos, and all of them have brought me joy because of my love for the game. Yes, the community isn't that welcoming to new players, but that changes when you've played for a while. Once you're fully integrated into the community, you realize just how vibrant and energetic it is. Believe me, you'll love this game after you see just how adored it is.

At first I would've recommended this game, since I have seen YouTubers play it, and it seemed fun. Sadly, my viewpoint changed when I got the game. I don't know if it was a bug or what. The game would seem to start, but the screen would be just black. The game cursor was there, as well as the Uplay panel. Unfortunately, because of this, I was unable to play the game, and I had tried to play it multiple times, but it would always be the same thing, and this is also why I have changed my viewpoint on the game. I do not recommend this game if you're unsure if it will work or not, I don't recommend you buy it only to realize it doesn't work, therefore wasting your money, time, and space on software that doesn't even work properly.
After I post this review, I am going to work on attempting to get a refund. I was excited to play the game, but that has disappeared now that I realize it won't work.

Update: Problem has been fixed, no idea how, but it's been fixed. Plus, no matter how much I may dislike Gmod sometimes, I just can't put the damn thing down. I've been playing since 2013 or 14, and haven't been able to stop since. First gamemode I tried and still love to this day is Zombie Survival, though it obviously isn't for everyone. 'Tis a shame the [HUG] server is practically dead, really gonna miss that place. If you just got this game, you are going to love it, believe me.

I used to play this game all the time, it was my favorite steam game. I had over 3000 hours on it. But now, it's just gone to the dumpster. It's constantly bugging out, downloading unnecessary things over and over again, and just overall a piece of literal trash at this point. It's gotten so bad, it's at the point where I can't even play it without it having to update or download something that's already been downloaded every 5 minutes. I really did like this game. But I'm sorry to say, until this is fixed I'm never playing this again. And I thought CS:GO took up too much space... I almost have NO storage left whatsoever because of this 'game' constantly downloading things for no reason. It would re-download every single one of my addons every time I launched it, causing my disk space to just vanish into thin air..
