"So this is how liberty dies, with thunderous applause."

Requiring 3rd party account is fine, but forcing it months after the game is out is not. Good luck to the dev.

Good

fun game

This is quite in the middle for me, for few reasons. tldr; if you're going for nostalgia, you better off playing the original version since the remake didn't do justice. But if you want a modern looking rail shooter, this one is fine.

Pro:
- same gameplay as the original
- graphics
- new stuff (weapons, achievements etc)

Con:
- my main complain is the soundtrack. no soundtrack from original game, and the new ones are not good
- 2 player mode not doable with keyboard and mouse alone. gamepad is required
- the loading so slow, I have to install the game on my SSD.

Looking forward to the HOTD2 remake, hopefully the dev will take the criticism and do better for HOTD2 and future remakes.

Definitely yes.

Fun, short and cheap rhythm game. And made by the bit.trip games dev. Would recommend give this a shot.

only complain is that the insane mode is too hard lol.

Found out about this game, The Messenger from The Completionist Top 10 Metroidvania video last week, and realized I already have this on my Steam so I gave it a try. And wow, what a ride this game gives. The gameplay is solid 2D platforming metroidvania, with catchy 8-bit and 16-bit soundtracks. The story is fine. But the best part of this game, is the 4th wall breaker moments. Coming from Devolver, it is expected. There are some very hard puzzles, but none unsolvable. The only thing missing is the impactful final boss fight.

Seriously recommend this game to metroidvania fans.

An excellent remaster of the best trilogy I've ever played. Definitely worth it.

So Atlus, Persona 5 Royal on PC when? :3

So many improvements done from the first game, while maintaining the core mechanics from the first game. Now that is a glow up.

+ more flashy
+ more combat mechanics
+ still punishing as ever
+ avatar customization. well, only eyes and skin color. but still better than nothing.
+ new modes, and Luca No Luca mode is back. :3
+ new skill system. instead of just unlocking skills and equip it, this time you can use all skills at once, provided you have enough skill points

- can get super messy when so many things happened on screen

Definitely worth full price purchase for me, although I bought this on sale. And I would recommend people to give this game a shot.
