The game is built like a Bond movie from A to Z, with a blend of cinematics and gameplay scenes that mix together very well.
So far performance is smooth and story is good.

i love how fun the game is and how simple yet complicated the mechanics are its both the easiest and most complex multi shooters ive ever played
Tf2 is a class based fps.
Every day is a test of your wits, social skills, and combat prowess.
While it can be demanding on hardware, optimizations have improved over time.
This game is one of those rare games that balances complexity with accessibility.
Performance or gameplay significantly exceeds the passing mark.
Great mechanics and amazing sounds.
0 update, are fixed, while some of them remain : like the UI, which still needs more changes, and the optimization of the title.
4, Land/Naval combat.
Loos of progress and dogmas objectives for optimizations from Civ6, it was an excellent idea.
Combat and controls take a bit to get used to, but once you’re in the flow, it’s super satisfying.
Right after those words, Crash of Worlds starts playing.
The basic gameplay loop revolves around collecting resources, to survive, and upgrade your suit, tools and ship over time, to be able to explore more dangerous planets, and make further jumps between Star System, but there is much much more.
Ground fights are little more refined, yet still nothing compared to typical FPS titles.
A very fun game if you learn the mechanics of both the survivor and killers.
A bit buggy, but incredibly enjoyable game with a friendly community.
After this much of playing I can't say I have any complains regarding gameplay - I really liked all the aspects of it.
The optimization is great, the graphics have a unique style, and the soundtrack is nothing short of magical.
Sure, the developers have attempted to remedy this by bringing some of the mechanics in line with modern gaming (like sprinting, for example), but it doesn't feel enough.
FPS wasn't great before but now like, it just doesn't really function whatsoever.
- Occasionally my power armor equipment will phantom dupe in my inventory, making me think I have more armor than I do.
Spent 6 hours trying to get the game to run properly and still look good, but a combination of the Creation Engine and Bethesda's overall incompetence at optimising literally anything meant that after hours of optimising, it ran at s smooth 60fps on high settings and still looked
Developed by Arc Dreams Studio, the game isn’t about complex mechanics or intense challenges—instead, it’s designed as a mood piece, inviting players to unwind, explore, and lose themselves in a calming urban environment infused with smooth beats and mellow visuals.
Only drawback was that it consumes the GPU resources a lot when I was running with the epic graphics options, 1280x720, and 60fps.
The game isn't even barely complete, No duelling, still barely functional trade and currency system and combat mechanics are still a mess and STILL NO MOUNTS!.
The game world is beautiful and at least for me has performed great with no performance issues.
This review was written after finishing the surface-level main objective after 39 in-game days and 24 hours of gameplay (within 36 real life hours of getting it- I'm hooked.
Peformance-wise I played at 2560x1440, and while I could reach 220 FPS, I capped it at 144 for consistency.
I started playing again to get myself acclimated back to the controls and see if it was worth it to me, a seasoned vet, to purchase the add-on DLC.
If you think I am going to go through another 8 regions fighting wolves with bare hands because of some fcking bug that I later discovered has been in the game for a year, you can forget it.
The gameplay is really fun too though.
Please fix the environment log bug!
You do get some fun skills and makes your gameplay easier but that's it.
I know nothing about optimization, but I have a very good PC and each time I play this game my fans are running like my PC wants to fly to the moon.
Well I simply want the game to be finished some day, because I just love the artwork and the gameplay loop.
There are still issues, AI being clunky and optimization being problematic but I ABSOLUTELY recommend this game even in it's current state.
While the game does not provide an infinite amount of content, it's an open-world game with hours of fun, entertaining gameplay that makes this product worth its purchase.
Performance is solid when tuned, and the world still looks fantastic.
The controls are also fantastic.
It has LARGE map to explore and build in, very good performance, and everything just awesome!
art is cute, soundtrack is catchy, gameplay is cosy, and characters are so loveable!!
The game runs wonderfully otherwise, but it's crashed on me twice already, which makes me very hesitant to open the game again.
The game offers immersive gameplay with a wide range of customization options for the garage and your car which affect both its appearance and functionality.
There were a few rough edges — some UI quirks and occasional performance hiccups — but nothing that detracted from the overall experience.
It comes from the emergent story telling that this games mechanics allow for.
At this point, I think they would be better off focusing on Stellaris 2 where they can start from scratch, instead of trying to build on a foundation that is straining under the weight of too much added content, and where the priority is selling DLC rather than fixing the long st
The inventory interface and much of the menu system is annoying to navigate with a controller, but no issue with M&K.
I did encounter a few session-ending bugs, but nothing that actually stalled my overall progress.
Engaging story/atmosphere with generally good mechanics makes this a good play.
Performance felt a bit lackluster.
R Shadow of Chernobyl after work, while I was sitting beside him watching his gameplay and being scared ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
so i don't know like what to write about this game other then magnificent, ive never played the old ones but man i must say i had a lot of fun , like i was waking up early just to continue to progress and play this game , the graphics were amazing (yes a bit low fps but it was wo
but if you do this inside that same sector, the AI who controls the zone calls back the f8cking armada from fighting the Xenon to deal with you.
Performance.
The gameplay is interesting and fun and I found it unique.
- The game runs amazingly @ 144fps, then why oh why are some of the cutscenes recorded at 60!!!
It’s an enchanting package that only really suffers from the standard drawback of the genre; after a few full playthroughs you’ll see through the mechanics, and at that point it feels like more of a checklist as you attempt to see everything.
Little to no bugs found in this game, other than corrupted saves which was still very few occurences during my playtime.
The gameplay has never felt janky or unfair.
Graphics are good but not quite as good as MD and definitely in need of performance optimization.
The game is very high polished and the gun play and movement is super slick, similar to Destiny 2.
Witchfire represents a distinct step forward in roguelike FPS games, extraction shooters, and generally fantasy shooters.
[*] Deep survival mechanics.
Build 41 is stable and really only struggles with performance if you crank up settings, or overload mods, to a ridiculous level.
You fall in love with every moment — the somber ruins, the haunted silence, the haunting soundtrack, and above all, the intense, challenging combat.
Think "Dark Souls with cartoon bugs".
If I had to give any feedback, I would say combat is a bit repetitive.
No — it’s Early Access, so there are minor balance quirks and occasional performance hiccups.
As for gameplay, the game plays fantastic.
Flat screen performance is good, VR and triple monitor performance is not anywhere near good.
ICARUS is a bold and ambitious survival game that combines harsh environmental challenges with detailed crafting and exploration mechanics, offering players a brutal but deeply immersive experience.
Performance has been great on my rig (Ryzen 7 7800X3D, RTX 4090, 32 GB DDR5, NVMe SSDs), and it looks fantastic while it’s trying to delete me.
The story, gameplay, facial animations, graphics..
Troy Baker delivers a convincing performance as Indiana Jones, and the narrative captures the globe-trotting mystery the series is known for.
My only gripes really are that the controls for base building and switching between things (like equipment & then back to walls/doors etc) is a little clunky at times, and right now there is no snapping though I think the devs have plans for that in the future.
- Performance during peak hours.
It's a dark fantasy open world RPG that feels a lot like Skyrim, but with combat that feels much weightier, the ability to dodge, and challenging boss fights.
o Time for some German optimizations, we need to kick this power fantasy into overdrive: A magical altar for creating and scaling the power of individual spells.
The gameplay loop is simple but endlessly satisfying: pick a mission, dive into the planet Hoxxes IV, mine valuable resources, complete objectives, fend off alien swarms, and get the hell out before you're overwhelmed.
One of the biggest things for me and deep rock galactic is optimization.
for the gameplay first and foremost so don't engage with it much.
League of Legends managed to overhall their game with new engines/performance/visual updates MULTIPLE TIMES without requiring everyone to reset to square one, including any purchases.
(I keep going to reedit this review to add more about what I love but I will end up spoiling every beautiful mechanic if I did that.
Even with some of the bugs and unfinished content/graphics in places, this is an easy 9/10 in my book.
so far the story and gameplay are actually really fun, but it really is frustating when even me with a 4070ti super can barely get 60fps with upscaling.
currently wait until better optimization, lowering the settings barely give you better performance
Very cool horror game, if you don't have a problem with psychological horror and explicit depictions of suicide, the remake of Dead Space is perfect if you like games like Resident Evil 4 in terms of inventory and weapon play
It would be a great game if EA would could fix the performance, but its ea so...
The visuals and voice acting are top-notch, and the core gameplay loop is genuinely fun with a lot of replayability.
The gameplay is generally smooth, some mild connection hiccups sometimes but overall no issues with performance or UI.
Gameplay-wise, every run feels different.
Recipes aren’t just “pick the best one and forget”; they’re a deep optimization game where every resource, building, and worker assignment influences the next step.
The world is beautiful, the gameplay loop is addicting, and despite some rough edges, it’s one of the most rewarding survival games out there.
Along with the increasingly long cycles between alphas, TFP deliver less and less content, spending more time upgrading art assets, implementing features no one asked for, removing features everyone loved, and ignoring the blatant need for optimization.
It makes urban planning, problem-solving, and city improvement genuinely fun, bringing more depth and mechanics than when I played the first Cities: Skylines.
Hopefully they will optimize it so when you have a city of 500k+ on a beast of a PC it won't simulate at a snail speed even though you have resources left and FPS above 30
Livestock roam, seasons change with tangible impact, and the terrain isn’t just eye candy — it directly affects gameplay.
This isn't my typical game for me, as I usually play FPS, strategy, etc etc.
The more I play this game, the more I think it's the best one of the modern Doom trilogy - yes, I enjoy the frenetic gameplay of Eternal (I played it for about 500hrs in every way imaginable) but the experience of TDA is just so buttery smooth that I find myself wanting to play i
The dragon and big robot gimmicks aren't that great, but the siege part one level is pretty much exactly what I want from a FPS.
The controls are tight and responsive; the visuals are on-point, nailing the look of the era.
i didn't expect a game to fill my mmorpg shaped hole in my heart that appeared when everyone started making fps games while also letting me create a thicc purple bird assassin to play as
GamePro highlights how these mechanics are well-executed and balanced.
Performance may vary depending on your setup, but I had no technical hiccups running the game at 1440p on high settings.
It was fun until you realize how repetitive the gameplay is.
The fps dosent work properly sadly, would be great if it has a lock to 60 or even more, but its still good.
The combat is easy, too easy, and as I said nobody actually "Cares" about any crime you commit.
❌ Performance Issues – The game can struggle to run smoothly, especially in large cities or the late game.
Yes, the game uses Far Cry mechanics, but feels very diferent.
Combat is what you'd expect from an FPS RPG.
loved the artstyle and gameplay so much, cant wait for more!!
The voice acting is stellar, I seriously can’t point to any other game where someone spoke to me in Japanese, Spanish, French, Russian, all delivered as top notch performances.
This game is really fun, and might be a great fit if you're looking for a good mix of action-forward combat, and tons of story and cutscenes.
*note: Performance may be inconsistent at times.
Coupled with some high quality free reworks (Like the Germany one, which came as part of a free update) that added tons of content, and a promising future without the concern that hundreds of dollars will need to be forked out just to enjoy the basic mechanics, the game has never
I would not recommend buying all of the DLCs and I must warn that the game optimization can be unforgivable.
This plays just like the original with minor (and very welcome) tweaks to some mechanics.
It nails that messy, crunchy FPS power fantasy perfectly.
Combat is juicy, heads pop like watermelons, everything blows up and collapses — I had a lot of fun playing it.
A relatively short, story driven FPS with satisfying gameplay, an engaging plot, and based on one of my all time favorite films.
In just 18 months, we’ve seen three major updates, each one packed with new content, new Pals, quality of life improvements, and balancing tweaks.
I've hit end game 4 times and eventually got the "New Character" bug on each save.
Crime Scene Cleaner is a unique blend of simulation and narrative-driven gameplay, where players step into the shoes of Kovalsky, a janitor turned mob-affiliated crime scene cleaner.
Performance-wise, the game runs smoothly, and the controls are intuitive.
It shines gameplay wise.
The graphics are great, the games performance was good, and the moment to moment gameplay is really fun.
Its a solid game for those who want more souls-likes, I think the weapons are cool and the combat is a bit more faster paced thanks to the dash mechanic.
Some performance issues, yes.
They make for really good destruction and can feel weighty and exciting, but as a gameplay mechanic they tend to lead to bouts of frustration.
Banger game, but with every update the performance suffers.
In that sense, in several ways, I liked having three well-crafted weapons compared to many similar ones that don't add anything to the gameplay like in other Souls games.
You’re here for the gameplay, and that’s where the game shines, especially with its consistently smooth performance.
This gets an 6/10, the AI is no longer super stiff, they are relatively challenging, and the cars feel great, as for the actual performance of the game, it could use a bit more optimization, and a few quality of life updates, the small selection of generic songs do get stale afte
The tuning, the stance, the cars, all the customization you could want is here and it was glorious with mod support and not the best optimization, but I looked past it for a while.
Love the combat, got a really good feel in it.
And lastly the game needs optimization.
Very good and chill game, needs some time to get used to the mechanics.
It’s not flawless — late game still needs some balancing and optimization — but it’s already one of the most immersive and grounded builders I’ve played.
The gameplay is still the same.
At first it might seem superficial and fun tactical FPS, but when it gets down to the story, which is interconnected through the different calls you get - I honestly can't imagine it laid out in a more beautiful, thought provoking and in some aspects unfortunate way.
It still has a ton of work to do when it comes to VR gameplay, mostly optimizations and model-specific tweaking.
MFS 2020 is so better when it comes to performance and visual.
Pro - Great combat, graphics and sound.
(Also the performance was buttery smooooothhhh!
That, coupled with the price tag, kept me away from this one for a long time, but I let it sit on my steam wishlist for years because for some reason I always found it's gameplay and storytelling methods fascinating and taking it as more of a roleplay survival game seemed fun to
Hell, I'm usually not even into colony builder games, mainly RTS and FPS games, but I've lost myself in the game.
The combat is fast, fluid, and endlessly satisfying, with a whole new layer of depth thanks to fresh weapons, mechanics, and boons.
Side note: Steam Deck performance is top-notch.
Gameplay: Lots of weapons, some of them are secret but not that hard to find, you can upgrade them.
but there are performance issues so beware.
It's funny because it looks like, plays like and sounds like Monster hunter, but perhaps in it's endeavour to reach a larger audience with gameplay ease it killed the one thing that made it Monster Hunter.
While I understand the negative feedback due to the absolute dog**** optimization.
The gameplay itself is very fun and enjoyable, and I'd LOVE to put more hours into it, but there are constant desyncs that cause us to have to restart the lobby, but it just happens again within a few turns.
But beware : game performances are below average, AI is dumb as a chair and cheats a lot to compensate for its shortcomings and there still are a lot of sync issues in multiplayer.
- everything else that other people have brought up for accessibility!
Any little exploit that helps you get through the level, like the rotation bug or duck bucket?
The climbing mechanics are very in-depth and really make every single little thing you do matter, keeping the gameplay constantly and consistently engaging.
Graphics are great, performance is great, price is amazing.
The combat is fun and engaging.
Btw, my gf has an igpu uhd 620, and it still runs smoothly on her end (uninterrupted 30 fps, for the most part).
The combination of deep core gameplay with the extremely robust skill trees - and now, flexible weapons that are easy to edit - means that Darktide is a game with a whole load of room for experimentation as well as something to constantly improve at.
The combat mechanics are amazing and It is, to be honest, my favorite FPS at the moment.
Will turn it positive if and when the performance and movement gets better
Will turn it positive if and when the performance and movement gets better
Good job on missing the mark in all categories, ♥♥♥♥ story, ♥♥♥♥ gameplay, ♥♥♥♥ combat, ♥♥♥♥ parkouring, and a ♥♥♥♥ sequel.
(On Steam Deck with 90 fov I'm getting 34-40 fps on avarage)
The gameplay is lacking, but it's an early access game.
Optimization is also a big issue.
The core gameplay loop that made the original so addictive is still here and as compelling as ever.
Performance remains the game's Achilles' heel, with even high-end PCs and current-gen consoles struggling to maintain a stable framerate.
Great game, combat system is still just as fun as FF:VII Re, and the new characters slot into the team very well.
Performance on the Steam Deck was impressive overall.
It's sandbox-esque gameplay really compliments it's lovecraftian atmosphere, The fishing is really fun and each type of fish usually has their own minigame to keep it fresh.
Unfortunately, at least for me, this caused the game to rapidly feel like a optimization chore of how efficiently I can complete the four islands and upgrade everything.
The environment, the combat, the tension, the storyline...
And yeah, early-game performance was rough for a lot of people, and I won’t pretend it launched in a perfect state.
Now with stealth, deeper politics, naval combat on the way and AI that occasionally remembers doors exist.
After experiencing too many crashes over the years, as well as other issues, my patience finally died.
It feels wrong to go into detail regarding gameplay and mechanics, because many of Death Stranding's best moments come in discovering it all for yourself.
Deep, emotional story with strong performances (Norman Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen).
each major update improves the game further, and unlike other paradox games the DLCs aren't necessary and, in my opinion, feel rather redundant given the vibrant modding community which offers a vast amount of new content, mechanics, fixes, adjustments so you can really make the
It is extremely underexplained, the "tutorial" also does not explain you a lot and I also struggled with the performance on my gtx3070 machine running Nobara Linux.
But it adds its own twist on it, with a variety of weapons and mechanics like hooking, parrying, dashing, sliding and ground pounding that make it 3x as fast if you want it to.
I've never been interested in FPS games or even fast-paced, intense games, but when I saw my friends talking about UltraKill I decided to give the game a shot and see what the hype was about and boy I had no idea how much of a choke hold this game would have on me.
You have stats to babysit and your range of movement is greatly limited.
All of this leads to a gameplay loop of resource collection and base optimization that doesn't waste your time or insult your intelligence.
Gameplay and design wise, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this game, in fact, I think its quite excellent.
Not usually a fan of Fps shooters but bodycams my exception, its easy to get immersed in the game since most of the time you have to think how you go about taking down the enemy and use strategy to your advantage.
gameplay and visuals are either layouts or amazing.
If you crashout easily and might break things then don't get it.
The new mechanics?
The Narrative, art direction, performance and the slow paced fighting mechanics yet intense and terrifying all joining hands to make this game experience enjoyable.
I do not find the turn based combat tedious like I do in some other games.
Only points I can take away from this game is that there can be some slight performance issues during some battles and that some of the achievements don't like to unlock when meeting requirements, other than that this game is near perfect.
Another intriguing story line to follow with creative and fun gameplay!
Another issue I think arises throughout the story is that Zoey is a background dancer to Mio's performance.
Every planet breaks down your preconception of what playing Factorio properly actually is with minimal changes to gameplay.
For perfect performance you need to calculate stuff, and also it has a nuke.
