This is a thread I created for people to share their opinions on, review, and discuss video games. I'll get us started, no?

Uncharted 4 is a pretty bad game.

That's the last game I played before I was consumed by a Blizzard.

Call me in October after I've played Final Fantasy 15

Oooh, I love the idea of this thread. Expect a review of RWBY: Grimm Eclipse later in the week from me. Been meaning to talk about that pile of trash for sometime now!

Hmmm...What to review, what to review...
So many games in my Steam library alone to review. I'll get on making some decent quality reviews for a few.

I might do a review on Life is Strange after I replay the game on PC. And No Man's Sky on the PS4.

Genre: Fantasy, Mild Steampunk
Playstyle: Side scrolling, Action, Adventure

Odin Sphere is a game by Vanillaware Games (Muramasa and Dragon's Crown) which is set within a fantasy world inhabited by Humans, Valkyries, Elves, The Undead, Goblins and rabbit like creatures known as the Pooka. Originally the game came out in 2007 on PS2 but a remastered edition with additional content was released for PS-Vita, PS3 and PS4. Considering this already a game that is almost 10 years old, it held up pretty well with it's remastered version.

The gameplay was pretty strong with 5 different playable characters and unique playstyles (2 melee characters, 1 ranged, 1 bezerker, and a midrange). What was very interesting was the way each character's story played out. Every character progresses along the same timeline but has their own individual storyline, meaning that you can cross paths with characters you have played or will play during each playthrough. This allows for a continual shift in view for when you go from playing the Protagonist in one story to the Antagonist in another, forcing you to realise that not everything is black and white as it seems.

The result is a somewhat unclear telling of events that is only truly explained when you play the last character (ie: Your fifth playthrough). Considering the amount of games out there that rely on a narrative in order to engage the player, this comes as a fresh change as you will constantly remember events from before and wonder how they will play out or what lead to their occurrence.

In terms of gameplay this game has been very well designed and the remastered edition improved on the special abilities of each character, granting them more personalised moves that match their character as opposed to a list of generic ones that the original design had. One concern that was raised, and noticed during certain boss fights, was the difficulty. For the most part it was pretty balanced but during certain periods the character that was in use would either have a huge advantage or disadvantage. The Bezerker character often had difficulties with airborne enemies while the ranged character made some of the battles a little too easy even when playing at a level disadvantage.

Verdict: Worth Buying

+ Very Engaging Story
+ Beautiful Art style and Soundtrack
+ Approx 40 hours of play before unlocking NG+

- Varying difficulty (overall on the easy side considering game starts player on Normal)
- Little desire to Play NG+
- Able to unlock majority of secrets in first game playthrough, leaving even less desire to play NG+

No Man's Sky is one of the most unique games out there in modern day history. From the small development team to create an 'unlimited' universe, Hello Games will be forever remembered as the development studio that made this game. But, this game has problems with it like any other game out there. Since the game's release, there have been a few players who thought that it would be a whole different kind of game. Is it worth the sixty dollar price tag? Does it live to its hype? Well, the answer isn't as simple as you may think.

Since the announcement of No Man's Sky in 2014, many players have expectations for what the game could be. The studio didn't tell us anything about the game until a couple months before the release. No Man's Sky is a first-person, open world survival game. You play as a planetary explorer, called in the game as the Traveller, in an uncharted universe. Your ship has crashed landed on a random, unknown planet and your job is to fix and explore the entire universe. My first planet was on a cold, freezing planet with one moon, and another planet that I could see in the distance.


I was excited to explore my first planet and find life on this frozen planet. After two hours of playing around in my first planet, I already found tons of plant life and four out of eight animal life. Then, I found my first alien, a cute Gek, and tried to talk to it. And I couldn't understand it as the text didn't make sense. Then, I just guess the action based on what I would do and got it ready as it was happy about my choice. I didn't realize then that I needed to learn their language by finding knowledge stones and abandoned places in these worlds.

Two more hours have passed by and I already discovered all of the animal life and find more knowledge stones than I expected to. And I went back to my ship and headed towards the moon. And I did the same thing on the moon and the last planet before I have realized that this game was simple and it often repeated the same animal or plant life, but with a different name and skin color. It was a fun game for me still, but I noticed the similarities right away. I wanted to reach to the centre of the galaxy, the main goal of the game, and discover some mind blowing. Of course, I haven't reach the centre yet. But, I do have hope that I will some day.

I played the game for several and I faced several bugs and glitches and only crashed once. The FOV felt off for me as I had to turn up my sensitivity to 80 before I felt okay with it. But, I couldn't even move around without feeling like the game was lagging. And the textures on planets would take their time to load up after I have entered the planet's atmosphere.

No Man's Sky is one of the most interesting game of 2016 so far. Does it live to its hype? It depends on the type of player you're. If you have been following this game for years, then you might not enough it. If you expected this game to have the action scene similar to Mass Effect or XCOM, then you will be disappointed with the game. If you enjoy the open world survival games, then you will like this game.


Hello Studios has achieved in making an entire universe; however, the planets and the animals you discovered feel the same. The game play is basic at best, but it does offer some rewards (like learning new words or discovering updates to your inventory size). The game can get repetitive once you have played for hours and realized that everything is the same. The NPCs like personalities to them that would of made them special to many players. The PC version is filled with bugs and crashes that makes it unplayable. And the FOV is pissing me off as I try to kill animals or mine resources. _{this is what I get for getting it on the PS4 since you can't change it}

This game is a breath of fresh air for those who are tired of FPS games, like myself. You should also get the soundtrack of the game as you will love the music in the game. Thankfully, Hello Studios is planning to add in more features later on in the game's life. And I plan on waiting for them as I wander off into several more systems, discovering more knowledge stones, animals, and planets.
