10/10 - Cheap, Fun, Addicting, Cute!

When Webfishing popped up in my queue I immediately was like what is this e-dating animal crossing clone. However I was wrong, Webfishing is an amazing game. It's a fun game to play with friends, great for relaxing and just hanging out.

Pros:
-Great community! Everyone I've met so far has been super nice and chill. Great to make friends and just talk to people.
-Entire fish log to collect that will keep expanding with major updates. You can fish in fresh water & salt water for different types of fish when trying to collect them all. On top of this their is some secret fish for you to find as well. On top of the types of fish you also have quality which each quality also has it's own log.
-Super chill and relaxing
-Fun game to grind and progress through

Cons:
-Small dev so updates may not be super fast (Hasn't been around long enough to know)
-Like anywhere on the internet, there is some weirdos and some bad people though the host of the lobby can kick these people.
-Game corrupting bug that bad people have been trying to make people fall for. (Don't accept mail from people you don't trust. Also if worried backup your save files) *I do believe this is going to be patched soon or has been patched*

Overall I do recommend if you're looking for a chill game to play.

Edited Review: Few days into the game and some of the game breaking bugs have been fixed. Server disconnects & game crashes are happening a lot less. They gave the option to "Wipe your character" if you got hit with the corrupted character data so that you could get your secure container and head and ♥♥♥♥ back.

I personally do not think the game is "Perfect or great" by any means, it still needs a lot of work, however currently it seems to be in a good spot that it is playable. I still do not recommend the game to those who are expecting a highly polished game because it is not that, but if you wish to support the devs and play the game through it's development stages I say go for it.

Things I like about the game:
-The game looks pretty good and runs quite well. (Given I am running a Ryzen 9 7950x3D. 4070ti, and 32GB of DDR5.)
-The map system is actually very nice, it's a grid system and allows you to mark coordinates.
-The gun customization seems pretty good, however it's not very easy to get attachments early game.
-The quests are interesting and have some lore behind them, however they aren't very creative. Mostly just, go here grab this, go here mark this, kill some people.
-Persistent map is cool and hope it allows for some really interesting events / changes in the future.
-Being able to redeploy and get your stuff back if you die is super useful, however if you die trying to recover your stuff it is gone.

Things I don't like:
-Servers can be laggy sometimes
-AI spawns can be ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, I was standing in an area after killing a bunch of AI and 5 more spawned in basically in front of me and killed me.
-Some AI eat bullets even though they are not even wearing armor, I shot an AI in the head twice and neck once then unloaded a mag into his chest (Though probably missed some) and he still didn't die, where other AI drop dead after 1 headshot. Seems like the hit reg is still a little off.
-Seems like there isn't enough loot that you can sell to make money, it's basically grab an extra gun off an AI and sell that each raid. However with how much it costs to buy kits this is a problem. (I've been playing PVE and haven't lost anything yet so the gear from quests is perfectly fine. However in the PVP mode where you have a MUCH higher chance of losing stuff this may be a bit of a problem)

Overall I still won't "Recommend the game" as it's in Early Access and still has quite a bit of issues, however if you wish to support the devs while they continue to improve the game it's definitely a fun time to mess around with your friends and shoot some ♥♥♥♥.



DAY 1 Review:
Loaded into the basecamp, game crashed, got booted twice on relaunch. Then spawned in naked with no head missing all my gear and secure container. Haven't even gone into the map to shoot ♥♥♥♥.

Has potential however this game currently is not worth the price. If you want to see it move on to become great you can support them by buying the game. However currently it is NOT worth it.

I can't even write an entire review because I can't play the game in the first place since all my ♥♥♥♥ is gone and my character is bugged.

SECURRRITYYY CAMERA!!!!!! - Jimmy

PAYDAY 2 is an amazing game, weather you rather play stealth or go in guns blazing and put down 100s of cops. Most heists in this game allow you to play them either way with the exception of some loud only and stealth only heists. This game has easily 100s of hours of content, tons of achievements for you achievement hunters, a ton of in-game challenges and unlocks, a ♥♥♥♥ ton of levels and infamy (prestige levels) to get through etc. The game is VERY DLC heavy so I do recommend buying one of the bundles when it's on sale. A lot of the weapon DLCs / Skin DLCs aren't needed but getting all the heists and GAGE dlcs is 100% worth it.

On top of this Payday 2 has AMAZING modding support, sadly the steam workshop doesn't provide mods, however modworkshop website provides all sorts of different mods to allow you to customize your experience, from HUD mods, to complete custom heists the modding community has really put some hard work into the game.

Payday 2 is an amazing time solo and co-op, in my opinion loud heists become easier with more people, and stealth heists actually become a little more challenging until your team knows what they are doing. This is because in stealth the detection meter fills up for everyone even if you aren't the one being spotted, so let's say two players get spotted the meter is filling up twice as fast.

The game has tons of comedic tons to it, you can get a BIG GOLDEN SPOON to just wack cops over the head with, the Jimmy character is straight hilarious! (He's my favorite).

Definitely recommend this game over it's younger brother Payday 3.

9/10 BattleBit Remastered, battlefield done better than battlefield!

BattleBit is an amazing game! It's essentially low-poly battlefield which makes it run better and have better visibility than actual battlefield games. Tons of gamemodes and maps, which different server sizes, 127 v 127, 64 v 64, and 32 v 32 servers. The gun play feels amazing, the movement is clean, not dying the vehicles every two seconds like battlefield, 5 classes based on the battlefield classes with one additional being for squad leaders. The 5 classes are Assault (It's gadget is more focused on taking OBJs and making holes in buildings with the sledge hammer or pickaxe), Medic (Gadgets are focused on reviving and healing teammates), Engineer (Gadgets focused on anti-armor, and landmines), Support (Gadgets are for resupplying teammates with ammo), Recon (Snipers, sledge hammers, Decoys). The game is in Early Access and already has tons of players and tons of content for you to experience and there is already a roadmap for upcoming updates.

Pros & Cons
Pros:
-256 slot servers, with 32 v 32, 64 v 64, and 128 v 128 modes.
-17 maps with destructible aspects on all of them. With day & night versions of every map.
-8 Gamemodes with 4 Core gamemodes. (Conquest, Domination, Frontline, Infantry only Conquest, etc.)
-7 Ground, 2 Water, and 4 Air vehicles to support you in combat.
-6 Classes (Squad Leader, Assault, Medic, Support, Recon, Engineer)
-VOIP (Local Prox with enemy voices, Team, and Squad)
-39 Weapons with 78 Attachments to unlock
-200 Ranks with a prestige system
-Squad Points system which allows you to build fortifications and cover, call in resupply drops, but down rally beacons for your team, and call in Air Support.
-Amazing Gun Play
-Not dying to vehicles every 2 seconds
-Great movement
-Server Browser
-Clans
-Lots more!

Cons:
-The night mode might not be for all, it's basically just NVGs on at all times but it's more like playing with a grain filter than actually being able to hide in the dark and use it to your advantage.
-No player ran servers as of yet
-No choosing exactly what gamemode you will play, as it's voted on after each match.

Upcoming Updates:
-New Vehicles
-MILSIM mode
-New Gadgets
-New Gamemodes
-More maps and more guns
-Overall gameplay improvements (Polish, Bug fixes, Improvements)

Only have played 7.8 hours and I can already say it's been one of the most enjoyable battlefield like games I've played in awhile.

For the low price tag, it's a very good game to pickup.

9.5 / 10 - Actual Crash Test Simulator!

- Great Physics, Modding Support, Controller & Wheel Support, Sandbox.

BeamNG is an amazing sandbox game, the game houses a advanced physics system which allows for the vehicles to be completely destroyed and reactive to the environment. The game allows you to modify and drive a ton of base game vehicles, allows to change almost everything about a vehicle. Allows you to spawn multiple vehicles and really do whatever you want with all of them. The game has a ton of maps to start and a ton of vehicles to start. You want to throw a car across the map you can do that, you want to winch a car to a boulder and try pulling it you can do so. You want to drive a car 300Km/H down a ramp and launch it sky high you can do that! BeamNG not only has amazing controller support, it also has wheel and mouse and keyboard support as well, so you can play any way you want to.

On top of all that the game supports modding with an entire mod repository built into the game, so you can easy download what you like and start playing without having to mess around with manual adding files to your game.


Pros:
-Tons of base game content
-Modding Support
-Great Physics
-Customization of vehicles
-Sandbox Features like time & weather, gravity settings, using your mouse to grab parts of vehicle and pull them with different forces, allowing you to apply unrealistic amounts of boost and other features to vehicles.
-Multiple Vehicles Spawning
-Scenarios to play through
-AI Traffic
-Tons of updates for the game

Cons:
-Wheel Controls by default are kinda odd feeling for me personally. However tweaking these settings can allow you to get a smoother feeling experience
-No Native Multiplayer Support. (There is a Multiplayer Mod you can find on Google)
-When modding the game, a lot of mods are broken and cause crashes. (Most common issue for me is that certain vehicles have broken damage models and cause game crashes)
-Long loading times on HDDs (Game has to load a ton of physics so if you're on a HDD you may experience long loading times when loading a map for the first time on launch, or spawning vehicles.)

Overall, the game is quite good and the best sandbox of it's kind. You might not get the most amazing driving physics like you might with iRacing or Assetto Corsa. However the game isn't focused on realistic racing it's focused on a physics sandbox.

P.S - Game says I only have 4 hrs, but played quite a bit with a old standalone version before I got the game on steam.

10/10 Great Game, if you don't own the game, you need Epic Games to play now. CRINGE!

Amazing game that's part of the Wizarding World. If you're a fan of the Harry Potter franchise this game is defiantly worth it.

I've been waiting for this game since it was announced. I am a huge fan of Harry Potter & the Wizarding World. So naturally I just want to get my hands on any content that falls within the Wizarding World. After seeing the teasers for this game I knew it was going to be fun. Everything I've done in the game so far has been quite enjoyable. Seeing the massive Castle of Hogwarts and getting to freely roam around the castle has been a blast. The castle is filled with students roaming around, and all these students seem to have life to them. It really makes it feel like a school and that not everything is specifically about you. The story so far has been pretty cool, and pretty lengthy if you're participating in the content that isn't 100% main story. This being tons of collectibles, side quests, ruins / caves to explore for treasure, etc. After around 27 hrs on my save specifically I am around 60% ton all the challenges in the game (These are rewards the game gives you for completing different feats.) and still have tons of stuff to come. It also seems like they really have set them selves up for possible expansions that could come to the game and I would love to see it. The developers and writers really stayed true to the universe and allowed us to view it from a perspective that was never possible before. The game takes place in 1890s as appose to the Harry Potter movies which take place in 1990s.

Amazing Combat
The combat in this game feels great, it really lets you use all the spells the game gives you. Comboing attacks in to each other feel fluent, blocking / dodging feels great. You build up ultimate attacks, which do some crazy damage as well as using the environment in certain ways to aid you in combat. Certain enemies has shields that can only be broken by certain attacks, other enemies are weak to different types of spells, etc. so it always feels fresh, and as you learn new spells and progress through the game you really start to feel like you're becoming a more powerful witch / wizard. Which I quite like.

Tons of stuff to do and discover
There is so much to do in the game apart from the main story of the game. There are tons of puzzles / secrets for you to discover and solve. An amazing world to explore and immerse yourself in. Different creatures to discover and a decent amount of enemies to battle. Tons of side quests / exploration to do, finding different challenges to complete and side quests to be rewarded for. Travelling in this massive world is very fast and easy as well. Start of the game you are mostly on foot however there is a fast travel system. (Floo Powder, which in the Wizarding World is a powder that lets you travel to different areas and pretty much always used at fireplaces however for the game to not make you have to find and use a fireplace you can use the fast travel from anywhere however the points you can fast travel to are all floo flames or fireplaces.) Early on you also get a broom which allows you to fly around the world to discover even more, and then even later in the game you get mounts which you can use to travel.

Collectibles, cosmetics, and loot
Hogwarts Legacy is filled with collectibles and loot. From revelio pages which are just little bits of lore, to different wand handles. This game has it all, through out your journey you will run into tons of different clothing pieces (which is basically armor) and once you find these clothing pieces they are added to your "collection" even if get rid of the piece. This allows you to wear it as a cosmetic override on and piece of gear so you can always style your character how you want not based on what has the highest gear score.

Levels, Skills, and Gear
Being an RPG game they was bound to be RPG elements apart from just gear. Your character has a level which basically is just there to help with progression so you can't be broken overpowered and do things that are late game as a level 3. The levels give you more health every time you level up so it adds to you getting stronger. But it also scales the gear you find as you level up so you can also gain more power that way. There are skills in the game after a certain point in the main story. (There called Talents) which allows you to upgrade different aspects of your spells / character to help you perform better. Last there is the clothing mentioned previously. With these clothing there is tiers from common to legendary which and with this gear at a certain point in the story you can upgrade it. (Make it stronger) and add perks to it. (Little buffs to your character).

Eye Candy
The game isn't no Unreal Engine 5 show off, however it does look very pleasing. If supports RTX if you have a card that supports it, as well as Nvidia DLSS Seeing the castle and surrounding areas in a graphically pleasing way was a very nice experience.

Different Quests for Different Characters
At Hogwarts you are sorted into a house, which the game allows you to choose essentially. These houses have pretty much the same main story, however different houses get different cosmetics, side quests, progression, etc. It's believe that the Gryffindor house has the most amount of quests, and Ravenclaw has the least. The Hufflepuff house gets a side quest that allows you to go to Azkaban. (The prison for Witches and Wizards.) The Sytherin house gets the Unforgivable Curses the fastest.

Modding Potential
So far we have already seen the modding scene for Hogwarts Legacy start, some basic mods, like more selection for character customization. Clothing item reskins, and some Reshades. Unreal Engine has never been the best engine to mod however, the modding community always finds there way and so far it seems like some cool things could happen.


Some repetitiveness with collectibles
Some collectibles in the game are very repetitive. These collectibles called Merlin Trials, which there is a lot of are basically the same thing in different areas over and over again. If you like the grind to 100% and collect everything you might really enjoy this. I don't mind it personally

Some interesting gameplay choices
Just weird things to do with lore / quests. The spoiler contains them, however does reveal some quests.
There is a library at Hogwarts and within the Library is the "Restricted Section" which students aren't allowed to access. The game has a quest where you must sneak into the restricted section, which is a stealth mission and getting caught will cause you to have to retry. However after this quest you can revisit this area without it being restricted. Which from a gameplay standpoint it can make sense, you don't want to always be stealthy in these areas. But from a lore standpoint it doesn't really make sense.

Bugs?
So far I have not experienced any major bugs in the game, and barely any minor games. Unlike Cyberbug 2077 / Buggyfield 2042. The only bugs I've experience is sometimes in combat the block alert doesn't show up, so you will just take hits. Doors not allowing you to go through them (This only happened once and a reload fixed it with no issues.) NPCs doing weird things like standing in props, walking into railings, etc. (But very rarely). I enjoy breaking games, finding glitches, etc. and so far in Hogwarts Legacy I haven't really been able to do that. Most games I find stupid glitches within the first week, but this game there hasn't really been too much.

I highly recommend the game if you are a fan of the Wizarding Universe or you just want to play a enjoyable RPG game. I love the game so far, and you should defiantly give it a shot.

Modern Warfare 3 - 8.5/10

The gunplay and progression system for the multiplayer is quite good. It feels smooth and weapons feel clean.

The campaign: The campaign kinda sucked, the story was dull and boring. The whole idea was cool where every mission was like a open world free form mission however it wasn't done super well. 4.5/10

The multiplayer: The multiplayer has really good progression, tons of things to unlock, the maps are mostly pretty good with some exceptions. The OG MW2 maps are in the game, you have two main mastery camos for the MW3 weapons this is from the actual multiplayer (Instersteller Grind) and the zombies mod which is a different mastery camo. You also have the Weapon Prestige camos which you get from just getting a ton of XP with the gun.

You also have the MW2 2022 weapons and camo grinds as well. The killstreaks are good, we're missing specialist still however the actual killstreaks work good. 8.5/10

The Warzone / Zombies: The warzone mode is cool has decent mechanics and plays smoothly. The ranked seemed really fun so far it feels like it's pretty balanced.

The zombies mode is interesting though I don't like it that much as a traditional zombies fan. 7.5/10

I got randomly shadow banned for no reason, this happened right after I went 59 / 9 in a Hardcore Domination match. I am unsure why I was placed in such a low skill lobby as I clearly wasn't meant to be there, but it caused me to get shadow banned ("Limited Matchmaking"). I am currently still shadowbanned and it's not been lifted yet. (Been 2 days). in this Limited Matchmaking I rarely can find matches and when I do there is usually someone using some form of cheats. (Wall-hacking, Xen (Controller scripts), etc.)

However outside of the Shadow Ban Lobbies I don't seem to see too many cheaters.





MW2 - 2022 Below




Modern Warfare 2 - 7.0/10

Interesting story, amazing gun play, great mechanics and physics and overall smooth gameplay.

As a huge fan of Modern Warfare (2019) I will say this game I had really high hopes for after the the last two installments in the franchise having some of the worst multiplayer I have experienced in years. Modern Warfare 2 takes what really worked in Modern Warfare (2019) and expands upon it. They reworked the engine but still kept the same feeling in a way that MW2019 had. They removed slide cancelling which a lot of players loved, however I feel like this makes players have to rely on gunplay a lot more than how fast can I get behind my opponent so he can't turn around and kill me. The new perk system is something I don't love but also something I don't hate, don't know why they decided to change how perks work considering they have been the same for over 10 years. However it's not that bad of a change. The new camo system and attachment system is something I personally love. I hated having to grind to level 50+ on guns just to be able to do the challenges and use 5 of the attachments that I unlocked 30 levels prior. This new attachment system allows for players to experience other guns and makes a little less tedious to level up guns as you start with some attachments from previous guns and you also don't have to get the gun to level 50. The new camo system is something that I love. Don't get me wrong I loved the old camo system but this one just makes sense when you have this many guns in the game. It takes some of the more repetitive and annoying grind out of the game.

Overall I very much enjoy the game, and had a great time with it.

Pros & Cons
Pros:
-Tons of unlocks and customization for guns
-Smooth engine (Combat & Movement feel really good)
-Fun Gamemodes
-Amazing TTK (Lower than most games but not 1 shot kills with every gun.)
-Huge variety of weapons (51 as of launch)
-Not super buggy
-Decently optimized. (I run a Ryzen 7 2700x CPU, 1660TI GPU, 16 GB of RAM. and I get 80-100FPS on medium settings 1080p)
-Graphics are amazing even on medium settings.
-SBMM has been less harsh than BOCW so far.

Cons:
-Aim Assist on controllers is very strong, people are having aim assist adjust them before I come around corners
-Lobby disbanding is still a thing
-Yes it's not super buggy but bugs still exist
-Have to level up different weapons for attachments for other guns.

Campaign - 7.5/10
Multiplayer - 7.0/10


OVERALL 8/10

(*EDITED REVIEW*)

Battlefield 2042 | Still a mess but cleaned up a bit 6 / 10

Battlefield 2042 is a game that had one of the worst launches of gaming history in my opinion, and I preordered and played No Man's Sky and Cyberpunk 2077 when they came out. However DICE & EA haven't let it die. They are constantly working on it. Tons of the bugs have been fixed, content has been added, and still seems like there isn't much of a cheating issue. The game has been quite balanced, guns seem more fair, and vehicles are completely busted anymore. The new map the came out with the delayed season 1 update was a map the sort of reminded me of Operation Locker, even though it was no where near the same map. However it is now one of my favorite maps in the game and it's quite good. So I can say that there might not be a ton of content with the content drops, but the content that is added is quality content. If you're still trying to find a classic BF3 / BF4 experience, this game is still not really that as it still has the free select class system. However if you just want to hop into game that runs decently well, and feels alright, BF2042 is alright for that. I have been loving hoping into matches and just dropping kill after kill. Overall still one of the worst battlefield games, but a LOT better than release.

PROS:
-Smooth engine
-Interesting maps
-Fun guns
-Tons of different ways to play
-Freedom to play how you want. (Any operator, any gun, any gadget, any attachments.)
-Free content updates

CONS:
-Still some bugs
-Still a bit of unbalanced gameplay
-Not a classic battlefield experience
-Battlepasses


(*BELOW I WILL LEAVE MY ORIGINAL REVIEW*)

Battlefield 2042 | What a mess 2 / 10

Battlefield 2042 is a game I had high hopes for, the reason behind this is because it was marketed as a "Love Letter" to the battlefield fans, if this is their version of a love letter they must REALLY hate us because this game is downright horrible.

Sure the "Core" FPS game mechanics are there but it basically takes lots of what made battlefield and throws it out the window. If you have a PC that can actually run this game without the constant FPS drops, stutters, and overall awful performance, and you don't care about battlefield for battlefield you may actually enjoy it because at it's core you can just run around and kill people. HOWEVER if you actually want a battlefield game, just go play battlefield 4 or 5 as they will provide a much better experience then this hot trash. I first played battlefield 2042 in the beta, and I swear it ran and played better then. During the beta I ran into little bugs and the game actually ran smooth. Sure no games release finished however when this game released it felt like a build that would be used to pitch the idea of the game, it was buggy, unstable, and overall tons of mechanics were removed like the scoreboard, being able to see how close medics were to you, the 4 classes, etc. I stuck it out for awhile after release since I know previous battlefield games have also had rough launches however I had to give up on the game after seeing little to no improvements.

Going into the game now tons have issues have been fixed, however the game is still not the battlefield people were wanting.

I still have hopes for the portal to be expanded on and be more playable because then at least I can essentially play battlefield 4 on an updated engine even though it's probably still going to be worse than just going and playing regular battlefield 4.

I don't want to bring up any of the past issues of the game when I played it because I know a lot of stuff have been fixed, with this being said it's still not like any of the previous battlefields, squad mechanics don't even matter, classes don't really exist, missing tons of gamemodes, progression is kinda terrible, and the game takes up a decent amount of drive space for the little amount of content actually present in the game.

Overall just don't buy it.

Great exploration, adventure, sandbox game with tons of content and fun to be had. 8.5/10

No Man's Sky (NMS), if I were to have wrote this review back in 2016 when I preordered the game, it would of been a very harsh review and a very hard not recommended. HOWEVER it's 2022 and the game has come a very long way since then. NMS is an amazing game with stunning visuals and so much to do, the game has evolved from what it originally was into this full blown sci-fi adventure game. It's a lot more than just exploring new planets and discovering new stuff. There is a whole economy to the game, tons of enemies to fight, tons of upgrades to progress through, and always new events and updates coming. It really is a game you can sink tons of hours into!

Pros:
-Many missions to progress through, starting with a tutorial that turns into a entire main storyline.
-Tons of stuff to discovery and explore, you'll always find something others haven't.
-Amazing base building.
-Choose how you want to play. (Adventurer, pirate, merchant, bounty hunter, etc.)
-Always new content to explore.
-Tons of lore
-Stunning visuals
-Easy to play with friends.
-A hub that you can visit from anywhere that will always have others players in it.
-Relatively optimized
-Good combat.
-Great controller support.

Cons:
-After exploring tons of planets you'll start to realize that there is a lot of similarities between them.
-Flying ships on mouse and keyboard is sometimes quite annoying.
-You will run into bugs, nothing that seems gamebreaking, some of them are quite funny.
-The new update caused players to experience a lot more attacks.
