I really like playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle!

But I do not enjoy playing Will MachineGames Remember My Graphical Settings This Time everytime I boot up The Great Circle. I wish I could play one without playing the other.

RoboCop: Rogue City reminds me a lot of both Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines and Fallout 4. Both in with the elements that endear me to them, and the flaws I have to forgive to enjoy the package. While lacking both the depth and length of the RPGs, RoboCop: Rogue City easy-breezy campaign manages to present a lot of fun ideas without overstaying its welcome. And it feels true to the spirit of RoboCop.

It's not often I immediately start a new game plus on a game I just spent dozens of hours to finnish, but Resident Evil 4 Remake is one of those exceptions.

While the RTX stuff doesn't reach much highter than "neat" when you're not comparing it with the original version side by side, it's still a good excuse to replay a great game.

I'm two scenarios into the game so far, and I would recommend fans of the board games to try it out. There is a lot a jank, but there is also a decent system under there as well. Maybe wait for a patch if you're skeptical. Speaking of, I do notice some problems that I hope are patched away pretty soon:

- The camera perspective is weird, as other reviews point out
- The run function is not all that much faster than the normal walk function, so its weird to insist on holding the run button in. This should be a toggle instead. Running should be a bit faster as well.
- It would be nice if the game had an auto-next for dialogue in cut scenes. When the voice actors takes so much time with each line, I get unnecessarily impatient when I'm tasked with pushing the button for continuing.

And I have a last point that might be more off a pet peeve than constructive feedback, but why doesn't Jenny Barnes have the social skill? I first suspected that it could've made her unbalanced, but after recruiting the two first team members in the game, another skill would make her some more balanced, not less. Her social skill gives the character more personality in the board games, so it's a shame that it doesn't keep up in the video game.

Probably the most fun way I have lost faith in humanity.
