Different kind of game-play than the other Yakuza series.
Instead of the previous street fighter style beat your way up in the game, this game is now turn-based.
Turns out that I still enjoy this game equally as much, if not more.
Not to mention if you are a huge Yakuza fan, this won't disappoint.
As usual, the story/lore is quite interesting & immersive.
Graphics are top notch.
Some of the mini-game elements are kept from previous versions.

The game achieved its purpose of being a relaxing and minimalist puzzle game.
The puzzles are fun and can be challenging, but also simple.
As expected, it gets more difficult as you progress throughout the game.

It's paired with relaxing music and a great way for you to pass time.
I highly recommend it for all of you who just want to relax, but doesn't mind solving puzzles.

It's stupid that there are so many bugs that still need to be fixed to this day though.
Paying for Fallout 1st will not get you away from those bugs.
I just think it's another way to continue to support developers in making the game servers run.
If you play this game daily, you like collecting things, and also having cosmetic items then I think it's fine.
You get what you pay for...mostly the atoms. To some degree you also get an advantage in accessing resources.
You also get the benefit of:
- unlimited junk storage
- private world to loot
- cosmetic items

If you like the Brotherhood faction and in-game skins/cosmetics then this might be for you.
I cannot stress enough that it is not worth the full price though. I purchased this during the Lunar New Year sales and it was roughly 45% off. While I would of preferred it to be an even bigger discount, I gave in, and purchased this DLC.

The tower is quite nice, but uses a lot of camp budget (as expected).
The power armor skin isn't really my personal preference...not as vibrant as other power armor skins.
The backpack skin looks nice and I think is one of the main reasons why I got this.
The stash & defense I think looks decent, but not really special.

I would recommend getting this under the condition that it is on sale. Otherwise it's not worth it at all.

Let's start off by saying that Fallout 76 is far from perfect. There are dozens of bugs and room for lots of improvement.
Apart from the few main quests, most of the gameplay is practically repetitive.
- You visit the same places after 24 hours to loot
- You complete daily events
- You complete daily ops
It becomes a rinse and repeat.

There have been some good improvements ever since I began playing not long ago.
Stash limit just permanently increased from 800 to 1200. It's good, but there are more changes that should be made permanent.

Example:
- There are some events that have increased vendor caps to 2800 from the daily 1400 max.
- Also the scrip from 150 to 300. These should/could be permanent changes that I think would be beneficial changes.
- This game should increase camp budget as well. I spend a lot of my time building my camp as I find that component of the game fun.
- Caps stash should be increased

If you minus the bugs, the repetition, and the rooms for improvement, this game is a good successor for a multiplayer version of Fallout 4. It's also a great game if you are the type of person that likes to grind, or idle.

Fallout 76 has a great community thus far I have encountered.
It's a game that I can waste my time playing solo and with friends.
It's a game I would recommend and will continue to play.

Note that I did get this game when it was on the holiday sale. Well worth the money I paid for.

Love the story and the cut-scenes. I normally skip those, but it is worth watching.
Fighting is rather realistic and I love how the decisions you make impact your surroundings.

Arguably the best Total War game among the series.
Especially with the introduction of the duel system between Generals.
This game also has narration in Mandarin and English subtitles (if need be) for immersion.
You can also choose between Romance and Realism mode.
Graphics are as expected, good. Diplomacy is essential in this game, as it should be.

What it lacks is the unique avatar cards of some generals.

Still a great game after all these years. Glad it is still being updated.

I own both Civ V & VI. Personally, I prefer Civ V, but Civ VI still has some positive aspects about it.
For starters, Civ VI has better graphics, and different features. If you're thinking of purchasing the game, you will have to consider both the positive & negative factors.

We have diplomatic relation options with other civilizations, the ability to send envoys to increase relationships with city-states, and different options to select the cause of war for minimal warmongering.
Having said that, some of the AI initiatives are ridiculous, like the ridiculous spawn of Apostles from other civilizations. You will probably get denounced a lot and most likely will not be able to have peace in the game.
We have the ability to build districts on a tile which makes it different that Civ V. It makes it somewhat harder for you to manage your civilization, but at the same time makes it more realistic than ever before.
The challenge you get from Civ VI is mainly at the early stages of your game (if you start by Ancient Era) and as you go on further into the game, it becomes less challenging. Early on, some of the AI get a ridiculous amount of military units for a domination victory, so you have to be really careful with your defense.

On the other hand, there also aren't many mods available at this time as compared to Civ V. (Civ VI is still fairly new anyways).
I have also seen many people complaining about the game having lots of bugs, but I have yet to experience one yet.

Anyways, if you are a huge Civ fan, I would recommend this game. However, I would buy this when it goes on sale. The game needs more mods too!

The storyline is well written and the graphics are nice.
The story is a bit short though and you can practically go through the timeline within a couple hours.
When you are fighting an opponent/enemy in the game, you have a few options for moves, and after a certain amount of time it gets quite boring. Boring as in the moves are the same/repeated even when you are in "execution mode".
The bright side of the limited moveset allows you to master the game in a short period of time and explore the different difficult modes at ease. You can also play with a friend on co-op mode, or go on solo fighting opponents/enemies outside of the story/timeline called gladiator. It's alright, but it just depends on your personal preference for games.
