Amazing game! Probably the best running PC game in recent years and a wonderful cooperative one. No EA account requirement, only one person needs to own the game. Story was enjoyable and some of the levels were so over the top creative I wish they had been broken down into their own separate game. Hazelight does not disappoint.

What a wonderful experience! I never played the original Myst or Riven, but bought the bundle as they both looked very interesting. Riven was the better of the two and the more visually appealing remake. Graphics are gorgeous, puzzles are thought provoking and difficult, and exploring the island and story was awesome. As someone who didn't play the original, I think one specific aspect of the puzzles that you're supposed to deduce is perhaps a bit too far fetched (or I'm too dumb, also possible) but otherwise they were the perfect difficulty of note taking and reading through journals. Would highly recommend to puzzle / story / old point-n-click fans.

Played this game for about a hundred hours on the PS4 & Vita before it came to Steam and what an awesome day that was. While it's technically a little behind these days (and I'd love some proper ultrawide support) it's an awesome game to promote camaraderie and teamwork. Also plays great on handhelds. Get it.

Though some bits of the game were a bit too grindy (as someone who did manage to collect all the cards), this was a thoroughly enjoyable game. Some humorous dialog moments, fun combat (with the occasional very annoying enemy), and an interesting character build system it felt like you were constantly progressing. Would recommend.

Gorgeous game and probably the best PC port in recent years! Runs beautifully. Keep it up Sony -- just maybe bring them a bit sooner next time eh?

This game is really, really good and an absolute blast to play with friends. Unfortunately the always-online mechanic hits yet another game. Unplayable a few days post release due to constant networking issues and doesn't have any sort of offline / pickup and play like the first game.

Not a fan of their 'battlepass' and paid currency system either, which I'm sure is the cause of the always online ********.

I really quite like this game! It scratches an itch for a new souls like and introduces a bunch of its own mechanics to keep it fresh and interesting. There are some interesting (controversial) design decisions but overall I like what they've decided to do. If you're a fan of the souls styles of games, I think it's a great addition to your catalog. Just, perhaps, give it a month or two since they're patching it at an insane rate and there's still quite a few bugs to have resolved first.

This is a really enjoyable, if a bit short, game. I 100%ed it both on the PS5 and on the PC release and enjoyed both playthroughs, though the mouse and keyboard, ultrawide, and additional graphics options on PC made it an easy advantage. Graphically, it's pretty gorgeous with various ray tracing effects, ultrawide support, and lots of particle effects. It took me about 12-15 hours to 100% including all (there's really not _that_ many) collectibles and whatnot. You could probably beat the base game in 6-8 if you were rushing through. I'd still highly recommend, just wait for your appropriate sale price to pick up and play for that length.

What an absolutely incredible game. AAA dialog and voice acting on top of a digital high fidelity DnD recreation -- this is absolutely Larian's finest work to date. Would highly recommend to anyone who is interested in strategic turn-based combat, exceptionally high quality dialog and voice acting, and a wonderful world full of living people.

I enjoyed this game a lot. The character designs and animation are wonderful, and the cutscenes rival something out of a Pixar movie. The abilities and combat were generally fun, with it getting better the more you unlock and upgrade throughout the game. Personally, I think the parry window could have been a bit more forgiving to allow users to get into the zone a bit more, since some of the combat sequences have very fast rapid-fire attacks which make it difficult to line up the parry quite right.

My biggest complaint is the stuttering. For most of the game this would happen while traversing the world a bit, and would hitch a bit in new zones, distant viewing areas, and sometimes during combat. However, the final fight of the game was so bad it would frequently drop to 3-5fps for a few seconds before recovering. Lessened the beauty of the final moments of the game, but would still recommend people power through it.
