It has a strong and funny beginning that I expected along the whole game, but that wasn't the case. After an hour it gave me a Ubisoft's open world vibes without the promised sense of humour.

It's not a bad game, and I can understand why someone might really like it, but I'm not one of those people.
As for the positives, even if repetitive and there are not so many enemy archetypes, I really enjoyed combat.
As for the negatives:
- The way NPCs talk to my character is super weird. They never say my name, but they use words like "student" or "friend". If you played Watch Dogs Legion you know the feeling I'm talking about.
- Side quests are super boring both mechanically and story wise. But hey, side quests are optional right?
- Side Quests are NOT optional. Main quests are locked behind number of side quests to be finished or character level to be reached. Every time I started getting engaged in the story, the game was pulling me out to yet again do some boring work for NPCs I don't care about.

I like the art style, but the game itself is just bad. "Gameplay" is insanely boring, dialogs didn't cause more than a smile.

Art style is cool, but gameplay... well, people are saying it's a puzzle game, but so far the biggest challenge was to find where the enemies are. I will never know if it gets better, because the game lost my progress.

Say what you want, but story mode engages me more than most of nowadays "story-driven" games. No boring exploration, no bullsh*t quests a.k.a. get me 5 sticks and no walls of text to read about stuff I don't give a f*ck. Beautiful cutscenes, good enough story and amazing combat - that's what I was looking for and that's what I get, hell yeah!

wow, I'm surprised how much I enjoyed a game with so simple and purely random second-to-second gameplay. Great atmosphere and even better soundtrack.

Where Sekiro 2?

It's pretty cool and super addictive colony sim. "Intelligent AI storyteller" is a huge disappointment though - it's basically fuzzy logic triggering the same events over and over.

I have mixed feelings. Art, combat, even silly story are pretty enjoyable. However, I've just finished 3 episode and I don't think I will even try 4th. At some point game starts to throw huge amount of enemies at you which makes combat super annoying. And there's only one thing which is even worse - guys with yellow bars above them. I believe they're just broken or bad designed. They replenish their bars even if I react to another enemy's attack and I have to do that, because they do that asynchronously.

I think it's a great game.
PvE - I understand that promise is a promise, but c'mon... Why would anyone who adores OW, multiplayer and heavy competitive game since 2016 give a ♥♥♥♥ about PvE?
Store&Battlepass - well, I still prefer the current situation than everyone having all skins like in OW1. It finally feels like some skins are more unique than the other ones. I guess it also become profitable to make them, because they're currently releasing more skins each season than OW1 ever had. I just prefer to have something for small amount of money than nothing but for free.
