As fun and interactive this DLC is, the lack of initial direction is abysmal.

Spent two hours trying to figure out how on earth to diagnose a pet, wasting hundreds of dollars and medical supplies, only to be forced to parse through an entire discord channel to figure out that pressing M on the clipboard shows the treatment plan instructions.

It's somewhat enjoyable, don't get me wrong, but when the dog I adopted for myself (and have had since the feature was implemented) got sick with a stomach bug and required a fecal sample, and had a full 'bladder' status upon becoming ill, you can do nothing but sit and watch as your animal slowly 'dies' because it won't take a dump, forgive my language... Maybe fix that..? Add a medical laxative for bowel-related sickness, or even just prevent player adopted pets from deteriorating to the point of seizure + relocation? Had to reload a 2 hour save and lost a bunch of progress, which was my fault to begin with for not saving frequently, but the point still stands.

The same goes with horses. Sick horses in need of veterinary food absolutely refuse to eat from the feeding troughs, and only pick at hay bales and snacks (like carrots and salt licks). Had two horses nearly starve themselves out before I had to step in (and subsequently fire the stable employees for wasting so much straw by cleaning out entire stalls after one single mucking, lol).

The DLC has the potential to be amazing, but really needs a lot more fine tuning; will update my review as patches are released. I won't deny this DLC is enjoyable, but please make sure you separate your saves from "pre-vet-installation" and "post-vet-installation" upon purchase, cause oh boy does it affect a lot of the aspects of your shelter.

Overall, I solidly recommend this addition to the game! Given time I know it will reach that full potential.

The game is full of fun and it's nice to whittle away hours of boredom looking after an abundance of animals. It's satisfying, and can be a bit hectic for one person (multiplayer would be awesome at some point. Having friends who can look after dogs, cats, and adoptions each to speed things up). My one issue is it feels a bit bland as of right now, but I know that more features should spice up the gameplay in the future. Expansion is a huge element that I would love to keep growing.

Other than that, in terms of performance issues, there are numerous. I can't go an hour in-game without having some sort of bug prevent me from playing, and I'll have to quickly restart my game. It's frustrating, but not overly so. Sometimes I'll get stuck petting a kitten, or the brush will refuse to be set down, or the van never shows up/doesn't leave. One time all the furniture inside of a building did not move WITH the building and I had to move it all back inside manually from where it floated in its previous place. The save feature itself, I have noticed, some times doesn't even save my recent progress. I had adopted out all my animals before closing the game, and when I logged back in the next day, two of those puppies were still in my shelter! The controls are janky in some places, if you use 'toggle run' to save your pinkie finger like I do, it's a hassle to switch items in your inventory as you need to turn it back OFF just to swap. But of course, these are all very much minor fixes that hardly impact me as much as it could.

Word of advice for new players; DO NOT take pictures of animals inside their enclosures. They won't sit still for a second, lol. Preferably give them a check-up and take a photo of them on the examination table before admitting them to their cage. This is of course until you get the studio.

chapter 3 and i cant even get laid without the papers writing about my failure in the sack as well. had to bloody restart after the irish git thought he could morally degrade my british pillion into the ground about attaining a higher peace. geoffrey mccullum still 11/10 would have randy intercourse with but no multiple save files means i harrassed my first playthrough into sparing these lumps of tits for the trophy yet was backhanded by giselle in a back alleyway after the fact just because jonathan has a penis. cant go back now and i cant even skip the intro cutscene. was thoroughly verbally molested by my cousin throckmorton after i refused to spread his vore kink propaganda around town. it was legal to join gangs back then but i cant even jaywalk at nighttime without a guard of priwen wanting to fist me with the newley shined brass knuckles pawpaw willed him after being shipped off to war. shagged the bartender in front of his wife. 7/10 game over all well done lads.

Valley is an emotional journey through a great flourishing wilderness ravaged by war and human conflict. You take control of intense gameplay and fights to discover the brutal truth behind the deaths of many and uncover the secrets of the Valley. The graphics and gameplay are beautiful and clean and the story is riveting at best. It has replay value and is exciting no matter which end you choose; to restore nature to her once ethereal form or to take it all for yourself.

Aragami is a wonderful game with unique components like stealth and heart-pounding action wrapped in one! The soundtrack is absolutely beautiful and well composed to fit in any situation in the game. Don't worry about story to go with your gameplay, Aragami has a tale so deep and intriguing you'll binge all the chapters in one sitting, just to find out what happens next! There are only minor bugs that you'll really have to try and break the game in order to see, and sometimes the combat can be overbearing and difficult, but that's why there is easy mode and multiplayer. 8.5/10 on my end.

Riders of Icarus is an adventerous MMORPG with every element a good game should have! It's enjoyable, challenging, and a great game to play if you're looking for awesome multiplayer action. From taming familiars to defeating great bosses, Riders of Icarus is the best MMO I know. However, if you are like me and don't like level grinding, it can be a hassle for some people. This is combatable by doing sidequests and joining your friends on adventures. 8/10 for good story, action and diversity. Gameplay is a bit clunky, but is easy to get used too.
