its a good game, but wait for the actual full release. lots of features are still being worked on.

a few updates are posted every once in a while on whollay's youtube channel

i bought the beta like 10 years ago and not much has happened since, but i enjoyed the hours i played with a friend. but the combat was a bit simplistic and there were no side quests etc. this is being worked on by the dev, and he has shown a bit. but ... its a 1 person team and he aint exactly The Flash.

anyways, wish list this game or something, come back when its release. :)

This game is... OK

But the game itself has a lot of issues

dumb ass NPC's that block your path

lots of bugs

lots of balance issues - magic for example, sucks

the worst UI for a pc game i've ever seen

The story is .. ok. the side quests are.. passable. i guess.

Anyways. You're gonna have to install a few mods (thanks community members - because bethesda cant be bothered) to fix the UI, the balance and so on. There's a ♥♥♥♥ ton of mods, and at this point the whole game seems to be more of a community / modding efffort, than anything bethesda could (or should )be proud of.

a relaxing little game. a large focus on building up the park, and hiding all the "non-park" things (such as employees walking paths etc)

but it doesn't forget the park management side (the economy etc) unline a game such as planet coaster that is too focused on building but the park itself is a chaotic mess with ♥♥♥♥♥♥ economy management options

anyways. it's not "full" 360 degree 3d graphics, but it works!

I've played 100 hours and i've enjoyed myself a lot. 8/10, recommended! :)

(i havn't tried the DLC or mods - maybe those could make it even better - most likely!)

I like this game.
It has a lot of potential.
it's transport tycoon-ness is spot on, and they've got a bit of manufacturing-stuff going on as well, which is fun. (transport belts and such)
it's NOT done yet though, as of writing this. So if you're patient, throw it on the wishlist, buy it at some point in the future.
i've enjoyed myself and i'll keep playing it, for a bit.
Things i hope they improve on is:
types of goods (why isn't there mail, and such?)
Things from transport tycoon i liked was, you transported wood from the forest to the sawmill - and then you transported goods from the sawmill, to the city. and coal from the coalmine to the power plant, and so on.

in this, you transport wood to... some building in the city that needs wood. and that's it.

it's really weird.

but anyways, apart from that - it's a great game, and if you like transport tycoon a bit, you'll like this too (if you want, you can also find "OpenTTD" on the internet - it's a free version of the classic)

So much content has been added since release. Certainly one of the most hours i've invested in a "mobile game"

the easiest levels are super easy, so even kids can play a long, provided they're not ... blind toddlers.

and the hardest levels/events require special tactics that the avg great player can't pull off.

there's something for everyone here, basically. and if you like tower defense games, this is probably one of the best ones.

Dark souls 2 is a rough game. especially in the beginning as you're levelling up to some more acceptable levels of stamina and adaptability (the stat which controls the speed of drinking health potions, rolling and a few others)

anyways, its a great game. got a lot of content. if you like a challenge, this game is certainly it. if you like souls games, this may be perfect. but its probably the hardest of the 3 souls games.

It works fine and all. the UI is a bit weird..

and since the wallpapers are made by the community, they dont all follow the same principles.
Some have audio, some dont

some can be adjusted in color in various ways, most can't.

some are super distracting and have movement all over, while some are very subtle.

overall it works fine, but IMO uses a bit too much CPU power. i tried it. and if you need this pc as a sort of "show off" computer, i guess this is useful. i never really look at my desktop, except when i need to click a shortcut. so i decided i'd rather have the extra cpu power to spare.

if you want a moving wallpaper, this software will do it. also allows for transparency on your icons.
personally i dont have it installed.

lots of (almost too many) options in terms of character build paths. all classes are combined with one OTHER class at level 10, and then you can contribute skill points as you wish, every level, in each tree as you want. it's great!

a big game, lots of quests, side quests, little secrets, and even reasons to backtrack sometimes. sometimes your objective can be a bit difficult, as you're not guided with a X on the map, like in some games, but you can find hints and directions through reading the quest text, lore books/notes and of course, good old fashioned exploring.

The few negative things i can say is...
the UI is a bit weird and ugly, IMO. but it works!
some items (especially late game items) have waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much text on them and it can be almost overwhelming getting the full sense of how much an item does.

There's also "open" multiplayer, with random people, or you can create a game and have a friend join you directly. singleplayer is also an option...

overall i really recommend this game.

I'll start by saying, to play this game, i recommend a controller.
It is possible to play with keyboard and mouse - but i cannot recommend that.
the menus can be kinda janky to navigate with the mouse and keyboard, but its possible. i prefer using the controls on the joypad.

Audio is very atmospheric, there's not much music except for when fighting a boss. but that adds to the feel of the game, making you feel "less" important in the world, imo.

the music is great though, at least most of it. i love the title screen music :)

gameplay is smooth, controls are good (i use an xbox one controller). The fighting mechanics are sweet, and every weapon feels different (some more than others)
its filled with secrets, shortcuts, branching paths with treasure and such. though, overall it feels somewhat liniar compared to the world in dark souls 1. Though all the dark souls games are NOT sandbox games. they are semi-open world only.

the story is somewhat hidden, and you have to search for it ingame to figure out whats going on. item descriptions, the environment, what npcs tell you ect. is all part of the lore and its tied together with the previous games. Don't expect people to just read you the plot from start to finish as you go along. if you play like that, you'll have no idea whats going on when you've finished the game.

the game performs pretty well and runs with 60 FPS in 1080p on my older GTX 680. my current setup has a 1070 GTX, and i get 60 fps in 1440p no problems

The multiplayer is based on invading and killing each other, but its also possible to do cooperational multiplayer where one player is summoned into the other players game. Theres no communication with chat or voice though. its all in emotes, and a few items...
If you wanna avoid getting invaded for whatever reason - you can just start steam in offline mode and play it. then you cannot get help from other players though. :)

the game does not support running in fullscreen windowed mode, but theres a piece of software called "Borderless gaming" that can make that happen. works kinda flawlessly.

If you get frustrated and keep dying, dont throw your controller into the monitor and quit the game forever. just close the game and take a break, maybe for some hours or a few days, then return. when you finally beat that boss, you'll feel invincible. and that is simply the best feeling any game can give you. and that is why i play this game. when you've completed it once or twice you'll feel like the whole game is a playground and you can dodge whatever attack you'd like.

remember, you dont have to use a shield and a sword. there's options to go spellcaster, dual wield and whatever. picking a class in the start of the game only helps you along with the chars starting stats and starting gear. you can find all the items any starting class is wearing, within the game.

also the DLC is awesome.

This might just be the best game ever.

Excellent combat

Awesome storytelling

Great lore

active online community

only negative to say really is, you should use a controller and i recommend finding "DSFix" online, to add 60 fps cap and proper graphics scaling (It not, it renders the textures at low res... )

apart from that, easily fixable 2 issues, its still one of my all time favorites. easily beating half-life, link to the past and such.
