Fast paced team-based shooter that offers a fresh mix of arcadey and semi-realistic gunplay, featuring punchy weapons and snappy movement, emphasized by big sandbox arenas that can be morphed by players with an impressive level of destruction.

The game modes are unique enough to standout in the crowded competitive shooters market and the customization seems to offer a decent level of progression to keep players engaged during the seasons.

The Finals is completely free to play, but still offers a very refined and polished experience; there is no reason for not giving this game a try.

Doom 2016 meets Ghostrunner.

Combat's good.

Hands down one of the best pew-pew gunplay ever made, matched with the most repetitive and awful grind you can imagine.

Stuck in a loop.

Don't play this game with Sharku. You're welcome.

I'm afraid to say that there was no need for a fourth installment. The atmosphere recreated through music and visuals is as good as the previous games, but there is a serious lack of new ideas and variety in the overall gameplay. Puzzles are repetitive and not challenging, the control schemes are frustrating, the combat sessions - especially the "boss fights" - are bloated and used as a filler and the story is way too simplistic. The franchise should have ended with Trine 2.

Great physics simulation, better AI and an in-depth Career Mode make MotoGP20 one of the best entries in the series.

The Mount & Blade saga is one of those rough gems that you can find only in the PC market. It has never been a polished and complete series, but it has always offered a special kind of experience through its unique combination of gameplay systems. A blend of action-RPG and 4x, dressed in a medieval simulation driven by dynamic kingdoms in perpetual conflict.

Bannerlord builds upon the previous games, in a way that does not change anything core to the overall experience but which improves on existing systems, adding new side features and end-game content. If you were expecting something completely different or with much more features, you will be disappointed. Truth to be told, Mount & Blade has never been famous for its vanilla content. The series has improved through the years thanks to the huge number of mods that were based on the core systems of these games, and thanks to all those dedicated modders the game has been played for all this time by thousands of players.

Most of the core systems of Bannerlord are already in place, and most of them just work. The game is unbalanced, the end-game is lacking and many bugs and crashes may compromise your overall experience and the amount of fun you can have. But the game still manages to be enjoyable, because at the end of the day Bannerlord remains a greatly improved version of vanilla Warband, with more in-depth mechanics such as smelting, crafting, character creation and customization, player progression, clan and kingdom management, greatly improved sieges, and a more refined world simulation that mixes with its unique combination of skill based combat system and troops management that no other game has still managed to offer.

Is the game too pricey? If you expect a polished and finished game, you might think that it is. But if you accept that you are buying a complex sandbox game which is still in development and that will get better in time, you will squeeze many hours of fun out of it. Content and balance is going to be released, and the modding community has already started to publish very enjoyable mods and additions to the base game that fuel the overall enjoyment of Bannerlord. Keep in mind that if you are going to buy it exclusively for the online you should wait for the release of the modding tools and the dedicated servers, because right now it’s not worth the investment.
