well at start i thought this would be a nice rts-rpg game but after 20 hours in i’m really bored and it’s not like i have a very peculiar taste in games, i have played lot of crap and enjoyed them.

the graphics,environment and general feeling are nice. the problem for me is the dialog. it doesn’t have a voice over except for some small painted(not animated) cutscenes but thats not a problem for me as i grew up playing final fantasy games that have no voice acting, the real problem and boring part is that the characters talk and talk and talk all day with whole paragraphs for you to read without really saying anything interesting or important and that happens pretty much every 5 minutes. the game consists of 10 level-maps with a lot of backtracking (we need x thing to open the door, now we need y thing etc). most battles are not avoidable, you get some monsters blocking the way you have to fight them to move on, you enter battles in instances and you fight waves of enemies until you beat them all or if there is a mini-boss until you beat that.

thats a few things about the game, i’m not good at reviews, i don’t write any and i don’t know if my english is understandable enough. as i said i played 20h until now but i will give it less time from now on if i don’t abandon it completely, to finish it you need about 50-60h depending on your pace.

not much to say here, it’s a call of duty game, it’s like playing in a movie. great action and gameplay the only bad thing with these games is they have a short campaign

haven’t played much this month, no crown yet xD

As i said at the middle of the month, until now i always liked to play few games and trying to 100% them and keep a high Avg. Game Completion Rate in steam but by doing that my backlog keeps piling up. after playing bomshell for too many hours speedrunning it many times and getting bored just to get some few achievements wasting time and still not 100% it because it’s bugged i decided that it is better from now on to spend less time fully completing games (and sometimes not having fun doing so) and just play the games to beat them. of cource if i can 100% a game in one playthrough i’m still going to try that xD but i’ll just try to always have fun from now on and not play like doing a chore. As you can see i just beat most games without going for completionist.
