good game!, this is a free game, very short one too... but i like it, this is the EXACT reason i begin to love videogames, this game is a slippery platformer where you need precision, and there is trial and error, and the more you repeat the more you get good, the art style is very good, pretty good atmosphere, enough immersive to keep you engaged... recommended!, very good experimental game, this is exactly the type of platformer game i like, and platformers are one of my favourite genres... try it out... ... unless you are easily frustrated by dying a few times, then don't try it out, but it's still free so it doesn't really cost that much... for me this is ART, my... guilty pleasure? something like that, anyway... 8/10... i give 9/10 for the idea though... ... bye.

*spoiler free review*
DOOM... the dark ages... i 100% completed the game, all achievements, all in one run, on nightmare at 120% speed... (finished it at 150% speed at the last chapters, when my skill was ready) here is what i think:
this game is... a little masterpiece... it's not a masterpiece, but it's not even a simply good game, for modern standards, this is a little masterpiece for real, a game that is better than i expected, though it still could've been more in some parts but those are nitpicks... here is what i think:
- gameplay:
the gameplay is poetic, it's phenomenal, it is both a massacre but is also smart, i LOVED some of the mechanics in some enemies and bosses, and also the STRATEGIES, i learned new strategies for the enemies even after a very long time, and the game is actually... relatively really easy even on the max difficulty when you know all the strategies, but the journey to learn them is the REAL game, the real gameplay, that somehoe is not boring even after 30 hours, the game does a great job at putting you in difficult situations where the game seems impossible, but it's a way to make you learn about new ways to survive and kill... it's a really solid gameplay, it's both REALLY simple, but also DEEP, so it uses the "poetic principle" the less=more ... and it works, it's very good... the gameplay it's just perfect, the thing that i really like about it it's that it has issues, things that seems not fair, but there is a way to survive anyway, it's just a thing you need to learn, i had 2-3 things to criticize about it, but now i don't have any, the gameplay is not simple as it seems as i said before, it's surprisingly deep... i just really like it, it works perfectly, it's both fun, smart, and keeps you engaged
the campaing:
now... the reason this is not just a good game but i think it's almost a masterpiece, it's the campaing... it's very good, better than i expected, it is veried, and long... i really like how long it is, and that it is an actual journey, there is a progression, it's way more like a movie than 2016 and eternal... the atmosphere and immersion are also pretty strong in this game, at least i speak as a person that explore and do everything, i don't know how it is you are in a costant flow, but in my experience the atmosphere and immersione were not peak, but good, more decently strong... i really like some of the levels, and you really feel an evolution sometimes, when the mood changes, the battles are more difficult, the story has new objectives... it's a very good, long campaign, the thing i like is that the first, second, and third acts of the campaign... both are quite unique, like they lose some charm and things from the others, but also they gain new stuff that is unique, and very good and fun...
more precise pros and cons:
here is some (also spoiler free) more precise things that i liked, and some very few that could've been better...
PROS:
-i like that enemies are more sponge than the other games, and they are also more "central"... the enemies are less "stuff to kill" but they are more "characters", sometimes you have a very personal confrontation with an enemy, in almost all the battle there is AT LEAST 1-2 enemies that you fight, that you feel like there is a personal battle between you two, the figh can last 20-40 seconds, that is a lot compared to eternal and 2016, also the enemies are more memorable and recongnizable in the actual gameplay, they are not just generic morons to shoot, actually, when they are difficult to attack you just focus on parry and attack quick sometimes, you do not even care about shooting, it's a more melee-like battle... i really like this, this more iconic and personal approach makes the game psychologically more interesting, though some people can argue that it's a bad things, because it's less power fantasy, but i personally don't even like power fantasy in games (reason i played this on almost the max difficulty) so i don't care...
- i really liked the creativity of some levels, though i don't wanna do spoilers... but some levels are pretty creative, the creativity of this game is one of the things that make this more unique compared to eternal and 2016...
- the mastery challenges for the weapons are very, very fun and very few of them feels like chores, they are really good and they are useful to teach you more about how a weapons works...
CONS:
- some concepts could've been explored more, but they are not explored TOO little, so it's not a big con
- the exploration could've been a little more deep in some levels, like "less easy"

yeah this is my review... so? i gave it a... 8,5/10... though by modern standards, it's 9/10... i like it, really enjoyable experience... very fun, relaxing, but brain teasing too, there are 2-3 battles that were a few of the most difficult i ever done in a videogame, at least by talking about just "battles" approved game!... .... ... is it better than eternal and 2016? well... i personally like this more than eternal, and a bit more than 2016... though more objectively, i think eternal is still the best...
yeah, this is my review, if you make it this far, and you are reading this... then you are a great person, but also weird, like... how do you have this patience, i thought i was the only one so crazy... anyway have a good day

gud

HALO 2... this game is a fricking masterpiece... im a halo ce "fanboy", and at first halo 2 was... disappointing, the first time i played it, it was good, but mediocre, i enjoyed it only some of the final missions, and i played it on heroic... after some months i decided to try again on Legendary... boy, this game is... epic, it may not be deep or have to sound design or be more artistic like CE, but jesus HALO 2 is nuts, playing it on legendary really put in front of my face a lot of values of this game that i never saw before or though it had them, it's so fun! the atmosphere is most of the time really fun, the immersion is incredible... honestly, legendary really is the best way to play it, sorry... every mission last like 2 hours or 3 or even 4 (chief missions, arbiter missions are shorter)... and you enjoy every mission so damn well, the first 3 missions of the game are honestly just... peak, they are the best part of the game maybe, cairo station, outskirts, metropolis... on legendary they are so good and long and immersive, on heroic instead they are a lot less meaningfull, like outskirts is forgettable on heroic... but enough talking heroic vs legendary, the game has a lot to offer, it has a lots of varied settings and levels, lots of new weapons, and the dual wielding... the battle rifle is phenomenal, best weapon in the game... this game obviously have a lot of famous cinematic moments and dialogue lines... like the beginning of delta halo, that is... something... or the gravemind cutscene, my god this game has lots of epic moments... like i did not feel too much emotion, im not too fanatic or crazy... but those cutscenes really are epic, objectively... they are really good.... then there are lots of good missions, delta halo is incredible, a mission that is probably the best one... then on heroic it was flat overrated bs, but on legendary it really shines and it is fantastic... (ill'stop it)... gravemind mission is incredible too, that is epic... just epic, gravemind is peak of the story aspect of the game... the arbiter missions are good, the only critique i have to legendary is that the flood are a bit too extreme, they kill you too fast and they are too strong and fast, heroic balanced them better, but fortunately none of the floods mission actually suffered too much for this, except sacred icon... that was bad, and i hate to say that because i loved it on heroic, but that is maybe the only critique i have for legendary...
but i love halo 2, this game is chaos, one thing i love about is that is... PURE... chaos, the game has not even an ending, the game has lots of varied enviorment, it has so many random stuff sometimes, the game is just chaos, the brutes vs the elites, the flood, the arbiter and masterchief, it's pure chaos, it's a party... is also difficult as a game, like this is a game for pro gamers... (i beat legendary, but just for patience, not because im good, im not a pro gamer... but this game is the playground for pro gamers)... this game is really chaotic, the drones, the sniper jackals, the hunters that do not die in one pistol shot, all the elites type, boss battles, shielded flood, giant sentinels, this game is a real overdose of certain things experience... and i love it! CE already was simple, refined, precise, perfect, classy... so halo 2 just said "MADNESS"... and that is what it turned to be, but it does not lose atmosphere and immersion... this game is so iconic and cool, if you are depressed, play this... ... ... ... nah, sniper jackals are fine, they are overhated... the drones are a real nightmare, but they are still fun though... if CE was a 10/10 this is AT LEAST a 9/10... iconic, the first two halo games are so good...

this game is fantastic, basically your hand is... it has poblems, and you have to do the surgeon with the least precise and controllable hand ever, and you have to do it fast! like it's fantastic no? there are also some dlcs like you can do the surgeon for an alien! it's fantastic no? also there is the president dlc that is like... i killed trum- anyway good game, but trust me... don't learn from this game, like if you play it... pls don't do the surgeon right after... pls.

wasted potential, could've been incredible, the first hour was very good... but yeah, then it's wasted potential, it's a game that is very good in theory, but it could've been 20x better VERY easily in practice

i recommend this if you like to suffer, if you are a masochist, play this, trust me.

this game is... ... ... ... ... ... yes, anyway recommended!

play it! i can't explain why

finally! old cartoons are underrated honestly, but then this game came out and thank god it became popular, this game has very good graphics, music, and everything, this... is... A R T... love this game, finally the majority of my culture can shine, old cartoons were peak!... ... ... about the gameplay though, don't expect you to beat this game... you will suffer, brutally suffer.
