This game is like a negligent parent.
Instead of telling you "no, don't stick a fork in an electrical outlet," it gives you a lightning bolt and a chainsaw and says "go ahead. See what happens."

A solid 2/3 of my deaths in this game have just been me ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ around and finding out. The other 1/3 are from enemies I couldn't see or a stray pixel of acid on the floor. 10/10, would die again

This game, from all objective standpoints, is kind of trash. It's got okay shooting, but there are better alternatives. It's got okay loot, but there are better alternatives.
That being said, I have no idea why the hell I've dumped almost 50 hours into this ♥♥♥♥ when I don't even have fun playing it.
Don't do it, man, it's mindless grinding for hours upon hours, and then when you uninstall it because you're bored, it stays in the back of your mind and you eventually re-install it to just sort of sit there and shoot stuff for hours and hours and hours all over again. Save yourself the trouble. Sure, you can totally turn off your brain and shoot anything that moves until you bleed out the ears, but do you want to? Is this the fate that you want for yourself?
Overall, 6/10. Decent shooting, alright core gameplay, but nothing special.
Maybe the DLC helps.

Allow me to preface this review with two things:
1- I really like this game. It's probably one of my all-time favorites when it works, and I don't even have that many hours in it yet.
2- My personal opinion on this game is influenced mostly by the fact that I adore D1, and this game does a lot of what D1 did right.
That being said, don't buy this game unless you really like Dishonored. I'm not even gonna say "wait for a sale," just straight up don't buy this game unless you were a massive fan of the first one. In almost all ways, it's a direct downgrade and one of the buggiest messes I've ever played. There were reports of terrible optimization on launch, but that seems to be mostly fixed for now. As for the glitches, no such luck. Here are some of the ones I found in my single, 15 hour run as Emily:
- Enemies would spot me when I was standing still and they were facing away from me
- Enemies would just die in midair, without touching anything, when I used Far Reach on them
- Whale oil tanks clipped into the floor and exploded for no reason multiple times
- An enemy got caught inside some geometry and I couldn't reach them
- I've gotten hit by attacks that by all accounts should have missed because I moved (my best guess is my hurtbox lags behind my camera, especially when I use Far Reach)
- Shadow walk eats my mana and doesn't trigger
- I clipped through the floor at least twice
- Even with Strength, I couldn't knock out unaware guards with bottles
- The nonlethal option for the Duke's mission just stopped working midway through a cutscene and I was booted into combat with the person I was talking to mid-word

So the game is very broken. Combat was nearly improved, since you now have more nonlethal options once you engage, but it feels far less responsive than D1's combat. The level design is still clean, and Emily's powers are different enough to make them feel unique. The new enemies are pretty good as well, and some of the levels have interesting mechanics associated with them. The plot is nice, and Karnaca has a lot of the same atmosphere Dunwall had. The characters, plot, and setting are weaker overall, though, with the exception of Emily.

The voice acting is good, even if Corvo and half the male cast suffers from "burly man with grave, gravelly voice" syndrome. The voice fits Corvo well in Emily's route, but I have yet to play through his own to be sure. Many people were mad that the Outsider switched VA's, but the new one does a decent job, especially considering the high bar set by his first voice actor.

From a graphical and visual design perspective, the game looks pretty good, although it lost that "oil painting" aesthetic that the first game had in favor of a more realistic but exaggerated art style. There are still some amazing shots, for sure.

In the end, D2 never approaches the quality D1 had, but it holds its own little charm and features new powers, gadgets, and levels worth experiencing if you like the game enough to look past the technical problems. However, if you're looking for a good game to play by itself, don't buy this. Play through D1 and its DLC first, because this is just more of the same, just a little worse.

Great game. Pilot gameplay is fast, Titan gameplay is fun, and it's a solid shooter overall.

The multiplayer is great, but it can be a touch hard to get into. Since the skill ceiling is fairly high, you might find Titanfall 2 harder to just pick up and play than something like Call of Duty, but it's absolutely worth it. The mobility in this game feels amazing, and all the pilot abilities all have their own uses. In some gamemodes, there are tons of NPC Grunts that run around the map, killing each other and shooting at pilots, which can really hammer home how grand the fights are and how elite the pilots are. Getting your Titan is fairly easy, even if you aren't good enough to take on players yet, and driving a Titan also feels excellent. Since getting a Titan is not a difficult task, almost all the time there's gonna be one or two on each team, battling it out, which actually has a massive impact on Pilot gameplay. Since Pilots can mount Titans to steal their batteries, a fight can come down to a couple Titans and some pilots trying to take them both out. In a Titan, a good enemy Pilot is almost as much of a threat as another Titan, since they can often dodge your attacks and whittle down your health from a distance, but at the same time, a Titan is a huge threat to any Pilot, since their attacks will instagib.

Far as the singleplayer goes, it's excellent as well. Although it's rather short (about 6 hours, give or take) and very linear, it doesn't overstay its welcome and tells an effective story with a surprising amount of character development. The only complaints I have are that I experienced a couple minor difficulty spikes (I played on Hard), and there was one platforming section that had me quite confused and disoriented.

Overall, amazing game, absolutely worth a buy.

This game is great. It's fun, colorful, loud, and manly as hell.
Pros:
+ Great art style (Gibs, explosions, and other chaos looks amazing)
+ Fun gameplay
+ Interesting abilities and weapons (no two Bros play similarly whatsoever)
+ The destructible terrain makes gameplay fresh and interesting
+ Level editor makes for great replayability
+ A great parody of both 'Murican pop culture and old 2D shoot-'em-ups like Metal Slug

Cons:
- Some of the bosses are sort of unfun to fight (The Terrorkrawler, for instance, I could only beat by hiding underground and shooting its tail)
- Some of the Bros (such as Indiana Brones) are weaker against enemies and are more suited to platforming than to blowing stuff up. I see this as a slight problem because the bread and butter of the game to me is the carnage.

This has to be one of the better F2P games I've tried. Its lack of content is slightly dissapionting, but I thoroughly enjoable mechanics easily make up for it. Floating Point, at its simplest, is a virtual stress ball. You swing through the void, and let your troubles float waay. Though it's not GOTY material, I highly reccomend Floating Point for its unique and peaceful gameplay-- At least for a little while

Wild Animal Racing is the epitome of game design. It's flawless and gorgeous levels are simply breathtaking, and the control scheme is like a dream. With the state-of-the-art graphics and lifelike character models, you lose touch with the real world while playing WAR. Truly, this is the master of all games, the pinnacle of human evolution, and what future games should aspire to become. WAR has no flaws, and as such, I give it and IGN 10/10. Wild Animal Racing really is a masterpeice.
