Forewarning: Do not go into this game series expecting a Stardew Valley farming experience. It is about rebuilding civilization after an apocalypse and trying to keep a town alive physically and mentally.

If you have played My Time at Portia then you will understand the basic premise of My Time at Sandrock. However, there is an improvement in graphics, art design, and animations. I personally think the voice acting is better this time around too. Playing My Time at Portia is not needed to play this game- in fact- I would recommend newcomers to start My Time at Sandrock instead. My Time at Sandrock is the superior game and takes place before the events of My Time at Portia.

The multiplayer is all right. Plain simple fun. It's an attempt of a reboot of the series- but we'll see how well it performs once the campaign comes out. Most of the complaints you will see are from people looking at Halo with rose-tinted glasses. The only major concern for the multiplayer is the near necessity for cosmetic purchases and the battle pass progression.

A great game from dev's with humble beginnings. If you liked the Insurgency standalone then you'll appreciate this game. It still receives consistent updates and patching. I could delve more into their good business practices but most are here for the gunplay and immersion. The game sounds great and the guns feel amazing to use. They went for something close to real life but with some exceptions for the sake of faster gameplay and more gun customization. My only major gripe prior to release was that they dropped their singleplayer story and made the entire game multiplayer only.

Pros
-Tactical, rewards methodical and smart playstyles
-The community has a good mix of try hards, casuals, and players who want to see others get better
-Dev interaction, I've actually seen them play this game which is always a good sign for its health
-Updates are free and add variety to the game
-Likeness of guns to real life. Response is great and the aiming/recoil feels just right
-Nice cycle of weekly game modes to spice things up
-Customization for weapons and appearances are decent
-Great sound design. A lot of care and research went into it.

Cons
-Some cartoonlike and otherwise outwordly designs
-Bugs are few and far in between but affect immersion and even a big part of the gameplay

A compelling narrative for a dark rpg game. It doesn't necessarily stick to its dark undertones the whole way through. It has brief respites of comedy and relaxed moments that help breathe life into the game. If you plan on playing with friends do NOT expect to be fully immersed in the story as though you were playing alone.

Lots of replay value through its various character builds and roleplaying. Don't be afraid to cheese the fights. It is a game where you are meant to play your own style within the rules of Divinity such as setting everyone on fire, summoning monsters to fight with you, or dropping boxes and bombs on your enemies.

Pros:
-Great Story
-Lots of replay value
-Multiple ways to play the game
-Fun with friends
-A good challenge
-Interactive environment

Cons:
-Can be excruciatingly slow in some parts
-Without a guide you can get lost on where to progress in the story which can impede progress

Overall a recommend especially from a company that now understands good business practices. They listen to their audience and deliver great games. Look up some of their talks on GDC on how they create their games. It really makes you admire the game and company.

Pretty interesting game in the regards to its story and lore. It may seem really alien to some and at times can seem ridiculous with the idea of space ninjas but DE finds a way to bring it all together.

Pros:
-Lots of objectives, levels, and items to complete
-Characters have voice acting
-Free
-Learning curve is not steep
-Allows for completely free players to gain premium currency
-Mostly friendly community
-Able to play on weaker computers

Cons:
-Grindy (People nickname it GrindFrame for a reason)
-Power Creep (can be moderately mitigated with modifications and upgrades)
-Peer to Peer Connections
-Takes some patience to unlock things
