This game is awesome just as i remember it from over 10 years ago. The multiplayer however is depressing 4 out of 5 servers are filled to the brim with bots but at least it's alive, the remastered multiplayer has 2 players online the last time i checked it and that was during peak time.

I am gonna refund it cause i already own the remastered for the campaign and already went trough the hassle of fixing it to not crash every 5 minutes. I had no issues with this version beside the dead multiplayer but i also don't wanna pay 10$ to a company which is still milking the franchise 15 years later on the success of these games. Can't wait for the 11th remake of shipment in Modern Warfare 4 and the new dog model cause they can't come up with anything new for almost a decade now, with a few exceptions like for example Modern Warfare 2019 and Cold War after that every campaign just kept on repeating itself and even with those games i had major technical issues that made me unable to launch MW 2019 for almost a year, 2 years after release. And let's be real still charging 20$ for this game is a joke, it was released 18 years ago and is not even supported anymore.

50,000 people used to play this. Now it's a ghost town.

When i first played this game, i absolutely loved it. The game does a great job of immersion, you can just do whatever you feel like and i was straight up shocked when i killed one of my main allies out of curiosity, cause you just can. Every level is crazy detailed, you can spend hours just reading notes as lore for this game listening into conversations and so on. The best first person stealth game i have ever played and highly recommend it. Also has great replay value cause of the numerous ways to complete a mission and because your choices affect the whole playthrough. Then i played Dishonored 1.

Now far the negative parts and before i get into it this game is still outstanding, i just happened to play Dishonored 2 before Dishonored 1. The story is absolute gibberish and the ecstasy of achieving what you all have been fighting for is just not there to the point i did not even remember already completing this game a few years ago while i did remember many other trivial sidequests and lore, the ending is just disappointing. My 2 other main issues were optimization, which is horrible on pc beforehand i played the game on Xbox One and had a far better experience there but the game does make up for that with it's incredible visuals, the other issue was length. Normally you spend about the same time completeing both Dishonored games but if you are just focusing on the main missions and choosing all the easiest options the sequel somehow ended up being shorter when Dishonored 1 was already a rather short game with great replay value which is also present in Dishonored 2 thankfully.

Considering the price i far more recommend Dishonored 1, i only did not want to play that cause i expected it to be not as good cause as of right now that game is 13 years old and man i was so positively surprised when i actually did play it. This sequel feels kinda disappointing compared to that but it's still a better game i would say.

Better than Half-Life 2

Boring and overrated.

Before writing this review i made sure to play Half Life 1 from start to finish and it just highlighted all of my issues with this game. The first hour was amazing, i was very impressed by the graphics of the game despite it's age, it was immersive, the physics were great and then that's all about the good parts. The whole game feels like a source engine showcase rather than a game. After that first hour there is barely anything new and exciting. There are always half baked parts here and there but they seem so proud of that they could include a working boat, a car, and physics puzzles that they put those same puzzles and gameplay loops in for 10x longer than it should have been in the game cause in the end both the car and boat controls are absolutely horrendous and i am also not a fan of putting 17 bricks on the same platform 5 times if not a lot more, it was only fun for the first 10-15 minutes.
I had no issue of completeing Half Life 1 the whole game was exciting, plenty of different weapons, enemy types and ALSO physics puzzles cause instead of making a physics sandbox they focused on making a fun game in Half Life 1.
In Half Life 2 i had to take multiple breaks cause i was just that bored of doing the same thing over and over, the story is mediocre, it is nothing but a nostalgia bait for Half Life 1 for you to shoot the same 10 enemy types that all were already included in Half Life 1 for the most part (except the Combine which are just reskinned soldiers which ALSO had more variations in the previous half life) but now on the source engine in much better resolution for 10 HOURS STRAIGHT WOW.
The game is so unbeliavably boring that i didn't even bother starting the 2nd Episode which from the gameplay i saw looks the best out of the "3 episodes". Instead i bought and played Half Life 1.

Gmod is great, the Half Life universe is awesome, the source engine is impressive but this game is just simply boring as hell except for those very few highlights like when you aquire the physgun for the first time so half life 2 style get ready to use that one and only gun for a hour at least and that applies to almost every part of the game (except episode 2 which like i said i haven't played). The content is just way too little considering how long the game is.

Edit: I finished episode 2 and it really was the best part, there even was a part from waking up the combine advisor till reaching white forest where i was invested enough in the story and was entertained enough to turn on the game audio and stop the youtube video i was watching on my 2nd monitor after that it was back to boring filler slop and watching youtube while killing a dozen of those same stupid striders with explosives (it is so poorly executed they don't even attack you just wastes your time). Not to even mention the combine overwatch having the same voice actor as GLaDOS in portal which are in the same universe so it's just again makes no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sense almost like that's what the whole game direction is to be as vague as possible, no wonder we did not get half life 3. Half Life 1 had barely any dialogues, Half Life 2 has yappers everywhere just in episode 2 there were like at least 5 parts where i could go take a piss, drink a cup of tea then come back 5 minutes later to that you are still not allowed to progress with the game cause you have to listen to someones extremely trivial monologue or dialogue before progressing with the game. In Half Life 1 you could just shoot almost anyone yapping and move on with the game, Half Life 1 had much less dialogue yet you learnt much more about the world you play in. In fact i would love those 5 minutes of dialogues if it would ad anything to the lore but it really doesn't 9 out of 10 times. The whole game is vague, boring and it feels like doing chores to play it, one of the most dissapointing sequels i have ever played and the top one is COD Modern Warfare 3 where they didn't even bother to make the maps for the story just copy pasted warzone maps that's how bad it was. This game ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sucks i would have rather bought and played cookie clicker for 5$.

I was going in with very low expectation since i already played every other Dishonored except this and i was very surprised positively. The game is exactly like the other dishonored ones, detailed environment, rich story and except a very few new abilities it is the same (same annoying kill detection if you assassinate 2 enemies right next to each other within a second).
Overall this might be my favourite Dishonored, only the graphics were annoying at first but the crazy level of detail and the dishonored style made me completely ignore that i can't read some giant signs because they are too blury to read unlike in the newer games. The RPG elements are the same level of detail which kinda makes me disappointed that they barely improved anything in Dishonored 2 and Death of The Outsider. Not saying those are bad, both are great games but this one is just shockingly good for a 2012 videogame.

The combat is awful for a "fighting game", the story is great but i rather play the videogame personally than watch hours of cutscenes, everything else is awesome. Great rythm, dancing, racing, gambling, fishing, bowling, baseball, dart, pool, dating, business tycoon, saving homeless people, helping out exhibitionists, blinding people with salt, finding a guy's lost pants type game.

I love Hatsune Miku from Fortnite

cute and funny anime girls pew pew criminals

It doesn't even start and i tried it 3 times. 3rd time were waiting for 10 minutes, even played a game of fortnite in the meanwhile and it still couldn't start.

I genuinely thought, it's just gonna be malware or something with that name and an April 1st release date. I am very disappointed, the game is alright tho.
