Early Access Review
Install and Run Game.
Adjust settings and have it finally go into "exclusive mode", which I guess was full screen without being windowed, regardless, it was now apparently running ok.
Try to go into a single player SOLO mission to test it out.
NOPE - You must first watch the tutorial. Boots me to my browser to a video. Apparently the whole game is locked until you do the tutorial.
No problem. Click on Tutorial.
Tries to connect to a server and then says "Unable to Verify Steam Account".
Wait... the tutorial is ONLINE!?! WTF?!
Try to do anything else in game but am unable to since you have to do the Tutorial first.
Neither the Tutorial mission or the VIDEO OF IT are installed, BOTH are online...
With all due respect to the other developers involved who might have spoken against this, but, I would like to offer up two giant middle fingers to the developer who, after what I can only imagine, was him passing the concept or idea through his wife's multiple boyfriends while she was getting railed and getting multiple thumbs up, decided it was a good idea to implement a hard lock on the whole game, in effect until a needlessly online single player tutorial mission is done, fully knowing that there was a chance that you could not do the mission. Leaving the people who purchased the game and have experienced aforementioned problem, with the feeling that if they has just crumpled up their money into a ball and tried to hit the garbage bin like it was a basket ball, they would have gotten more entertainment out of their money.
PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE THIS GAME, these devs do not deserve it. I won't even get into the Denuvo or whatever it is called, issue. I could careless if they have access to all my files. I wont be in any way responsible for the psychiatric help they will need if they do look at them.
I hope they will either fix or change this in the future so I can play my game and then write a more... let's say, "positive" review.

Game is Bare Bones right now. For example, there is a menu select for the different doctrines to choose from, just like CoH2 you can choose to take three of them, HOWEVER, you only have three right now, making the whole selection screen pointless. So with that out of the way it is Company of Heroes and a very fun addition too. Campaign is good, but where it shines is the skirmish/Multiplayer/coop vs AI modes. That's what we really want and it came with a MAP EDITOR! CUSTOM GAME JOIN/CREATE LOBBY! AND STEAM WORKSHOP SUPPORT FOR... get this MODS!!! AT LAUNCH! AT LAUNCH!!! So yes, it is bare bones and the campaign does have the occasional bugs but the game is solid and it is totally worth it. It is fun too! I love it. I just hope it is built up and supported, because if it does, it has the potential to be the best Company of Heroes out of the 3. Cant wait for the future, meanwhile, I will indulge in many, many games with friends! P.S. I just hope the devs put an XP/progression system and rewards like the crates we got in CoH2.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. EVEN ON SALE.
I payed very little and still feel ripped off. And this coming from a guy who buys the hentai pic puzzle games, in terms of taste in games I am a raccoon, since I consume and am happy with an unhealthy amount of trash, and I mean UTTER TRASH GAMES, even those, I am happy with. This game, I feel is a famous "Take the money and Run" scenario. You simply cannot play the game. UNPLAYABLE.
For me when you start the game you need to pick up a weapon on a table. This is where NO key on the keyboard or mouse will let you pick the weapon up. So you really can not play the game. Game thinks you have an Xbox controller plugged in, when you do not, and there is absolutely nothing you can do. The game has no way to rebind anything as well. Seems this bug has been around for more than a year according to the discussions. Just inexcusable to have something like this on the discussion boards here on steam, for more than a year and nothing was done, there was not even the complementary cookie cutter answer saying they are working on it. I feel this is abandon-ware by this point. So do not purchase. Even on sale.
Here are some screenshots of the problem.

So This game is definitely not for me, however, it is exactly what it portrays itself to be. A violent twitch fest slug-a-thon, it is "rage quit" with guns. I was kind of hoping for more of a metroidvania-eque type thing, but no. Is it a bad game? No, it works, and has key binding, and was working in all different kinds of resolution, full screen and windowed. But the "trial and error" in this game goes beyond where I draw the line. Maybe in the future I might want to play it, I will definitely keep it in my library. And I will recommend it IF what I described above is your thing. Just because I did not enjoy it, does not mean it is a bad game. It is true to the videos on the store page, so check them out. Cheers.

Early Access Review
Good Lord! Finally a game that captures that Starcraft II part 1 Campaign ship interface with a fun relaxing game. This game is a mix of a tactical turn based RPG and a shoot-em-up/bullet hell-ish light. I had no tech issues yet. The game is in Early Access and much of it is "Coming Soon/Under Construction" but what is there is amazing! I love the voice acting with a few exceptions, the writing is immature and crude, BUT, it is definitely entertaining, and that is the objective. I just hope we can customise the hero's appearance later on, through the game or mods because he looks awful, like really cheap and dumb, especially with all the awesome nice looking characters in the game. Other than that the game is simply great, and the "adult" part of the game is great too. Thank you FOW for the great game. I definitely recommend the game, even at full price, however if you are looking for the complete experience wait for the game to come out of EA, but like I mentioned, what is there already is pretty good.

Absolutly F A N T A S T I C ! ! !
You rarely come across a game these days where you struggle to find some bad aspect or short coming, well, let me tell you, this game to me is close to perfect when it comes to the genre and what it sold itself to be. They delivered what they promised and were not scared to push forward and create exactly what they imagined withing the limitations of our current hardware and technology. Thank you guys for a fantastic game experience! No crashes or bugs so far. If you love the genre, I definitely recommend the game, even at full price!

Cyberpunk 2077 is simply "The Best Game from the year 2077 that you can try to run on a PC from the year 2019!"

I have an I7-9700 with 32Gb of Ram and a 2080 TI OC, running on an M.2 Drive and I get single digit frames if half the options are not turned off. I wish steam had a third choice beside the "yes" or "no" choices. The game is actually pretty good, I just have three questions I would ask the Devs and whoever is thinking of buying this:

1 - Is Quality Control (bugs, functionality) and Optimization of a game important to you? Because if you enjoy lots of minor bugs, one or two mission breaking bugs and the game chugging along with pretty bad performance, this game is "Fantastic"!
2 - A game with such serious undertones and I still need to put 15 rounds into a guys head for him to die, who thought it was a good idea to make everyone and their Cyber Mom into a big fat bullet sponge? In terms of "bullet spongyness" this game makes "The Division" look like a Hard Core 3rd party Arma 3 Mod. No matter how good and tight the gun handling, sounds and ADS are, it is all for nothing when you feel like you are using an airsoft toy.
3 - Dialogue options are regrettably poor and most of what the character does is on the rails. Why even put these dialogues options there if you make us select each one and go through the motions regardless of choice? I was not expecting Mass Effect/Fallout/Elder Scrolls character freedom in this game, but I was surprised how shallow it was.

So All in all, do you need to play this game RIGHT NOW? Because it is a fantastic game, with many awesome aspects, even with a few seriously questionable design choices, although much of that is subjective and relative to your tates. It is also a game with many technical issues that should not be there with such a long development cycle. I would wait until the technical difficulties are ironed out and hopefully some mods come out, before purchasing it. Buyer beware.

P.S. *Update* -The latest Nvidia driver made DLSS make a world of difference. it is somewhat running now and GPU usage shot-up dramatically. So I guess there is hope.

You cannot go wrong with this classic. Serious fun, has workshop/mod support, can switch to retro graphics at any time and the multiplayer works great. Got my fingers crossed for a Tiberium Sun remake and beyond.

Is this a AAA game? No. Not even close.
Does it have a AAA price tag? No. But I would not buy it at full price, even the 20% discount that I got was not sufficiently good for me to be at easy with what the game is and the price.
Is the game fun? YES. However it does suffer from lack of polish, not only relating to graphics and sound, but controls was well, since it is trying to be a "souls like game" with out Dark Soul's tight and well balanced controls. Feels like your playing a Dark Souls-ish mod in a Unreal Tournament.
I Still recommend it to anyone that is looking for a fun game, just curb your enthusiasm and expectations.

Early Access Review
Not a bad card game.
Having issues setting the resolution and the business model could be better, like us getting some kind of points playing the AI and getting to be able to buy decks with that, similar to what Infinity Wars has. You can get some by doing achievement style missions, but those suck and you are very limited. Not everyone wants to jump into ranked with the starter deck, and most people will only spend money on the game once they have sunk a few hours in. Kind of hard sinking a few hours in a game where you loose more often then win because your deck sucks. Still I recommend anyone even remotely interested in card games to try it, it is really simple and easy to get into, yet sometimes you see some really cool abilities on new cards that hints to more complexity later on.
