Greedfall verfügt zweifelsohne über Schwächen. Schon am häufig ähnlichen Aufbau der Gebäude und Landschaften sowie den oftmals schlauchartigen Karten lässt sich ableiten, dass es sich um keinen AAA-Release handelt. Hinzu kommen technische Schwächen, die mit umfassenderem Budget hätten vermieden werden können.

Bulletstorm: Duke of Switch Edition — это ремастер безукоризненного блокбастера прошлого поколения, который недавно вышел на Switch. Он заслуживает внимания всех: и тех, кто играл в игру ранее, и тех, кто только сейчас начал знакомиться с коридорными шутерами начала 2010-х.

Like a mech without a pilot, Daemon X Machina is a beautiful shell with not enough to fill it. It’s a frustrating thing - simultaneously proving that there’s life in this old genre, but failing to inject much of interest beyond the base level. I was thrilled enough by the opportunity to truly micro-manage a mech for the first time in a while, but there just wasn’t enough to do with my creation once I was done tinkering.

El juego no termina de cuajar. Tal vez en una revisión, en un futuro, podrá convertirse en algo con más empaque. De momento no es más que un juego pequeño al que se le ha puesto demasiado foco de atención, lo que puede que consiga que se le mire con un punto de vista más inquisidor. Un producto fallido al que parece que le falta algo de ambición para triunfar.

NBA 2K continues its tradition of upping already tremendous gameplay, emulating the real-life sport in ways that didn’t seem possible just years ago. The inclusion of the WNBA may be this year’s biggest step forward, especially because it does an excellent job showcasing the many gameplay improvements from last year. MyCareer also continues to improve in small and noticeable ways, setting a new standard for story modes in sports games.

Por fin Spiders sacude sus demonios y muestran su gran calidad con Greedfall. Un notable A-RPG repleto de contenido, que dará horas de diversión al género y que con un presupuesto aún mayor podría haber apuntado más alto.

Chaos wirft einen Schatten auf Control. Dabei war die eigentliche Reise durch die Behörde höchst unterhaltsam. Das liegt nicht zuletzt an Jesse Faden und all den Kuriositäten im Ältesten Haus. Trotzdem rate ich vorerst zu Geduld. Erst wenn Remedy das Chaos unter Kontrolle bringt, könnt ihr Control problemlos genießen.

The Technomancer was disappointing, but I still wanted to see other games try the ambitious things it was attempting with more success - GreedFall delivers on that promise. There are still glitches, awkward character models, immersion-breaking re-use of assets, and an overall lack of polish that keep it from threatening Geralt’s crown, and I’ll need to find out how the story wraps up before I can pass final judgment on it. But I can already say this is going to be a crowd-pleaser for those of us who still shake our canes and talk about how the genre peaked a decade ago. We may have to eat our words before long.

Being untethered from persistent servers and able to trade loot at will is a refreshing change of pace, but that’s hardly the only reason why this such an amazing co-op FPS. The sheer magnitude and diversity of its arsenal of fun and surprising weaponry is unmatched, and the striking amount of loving detail and variety packed into its energetic and replayable 30-hour campaign is what makes Borderlands 3 a high-point for the series – and the genre as a whole.

A creepy and unsettling action-platformer, Blasphemous has an eery atmosphere, gorgeous pixel art, and intricate animations that never fail to impress. The combat can be satisfying, but relies too heavily on memorization, which makes backtracking through its non-linear world eventually turn stale. And while the visual variety at least keeps things looking fresh, superfluous and poorly implemented upgrade mechanics keep Blasphemous from having the amount of depth seen in many other games across the genre. It’s still an enjoyable Metroidvania, just not an all that memorable one.
