Spiritfarer is very unique game.

The character, known as animal spirits are what make this game so emotional and grew up on me. All their backstory, personality and sense of humors are well-designed including their own unique quests. The grinding and story pushing are very addicting and fun to do.

But that being said, I still find some of the issues as the gameplay:

1) While the grind is fun and very addicting, it is also annoying and tedious later on. Especially you have to manage all of the resources and knowing your plans what to do, where to go in order to catch up the story (this isn't including grind to 100%).

2) The event is also annoying, too because it will force you to go to that character to play or not play. Of course all of the events are important for story and grinding grim to buy more resources and upgrade your boat. But having to run down to that character every time is very tedious. Sometimes I don't want to do the event becaus but I have to go that character to disable the event. I wish there was a way to auto-disable the event while going to the next location without getting asked to play the event.

3) The control is very buggy for me. Movement in this game are very basic even with special movement, but sometimes the input started to get stuck and can lock yourself from running around to go inside and interact with NPC or animal for resource. A good example is zipping; with zipping, sometimes pressing W to zipline didn't work properly or the hitbox of zip line is very precise?

While I find the grind is starting to get boring later on, you can't pass out this story. The character, artwork, backgrounds and OST are what makes me addicted to play more. Recommended for everyone want to enjoy the story and be patience because this is a farming simulator after all.

Fluffy Store is an odd visual novel for me at least.

This story might share a lot of similarities to Fox Hime and Fox Hime Zero? You have this MC named Lin Yang and from FH & FH0 is Yan. Both MCs share almost the same personality and their goals for the story. I don't know why but this is making me want to make this question after I play Fluffy Store.

Speaking of this visual novel, Fluffy Store is a slice of life story with no enhanced options for impacting the story. Very cute scenes with comedy and some mystery about the characters. The artwork, 2D characters, music, animation and voice acting are top-notch. There is only one thing I still find a little annoyed with is the translation to English. Of course, most visual novels from AsicxArt suffer from poor translation and grammar, but this one is not really the end of the world because I still find this story to be short and enjoyable.

The story itself, as I said, is a very cute, short, simple plot with no enhanced options for impacting our story procession. But the ending is rather rushed and leaves something unsolved and questionable to this day. But still, it is a very good visual novel for the price and time enjoyment, can't complain about that.

This DLC is a cash grabber for anyone who thinks this is the true ending of Tricolour Lovestory.

The title "TrueEnd" is where I take the issue. It is a questionable title since we already have a main story with 2 different routes and endings. This one is also 2 different routes but with different characters and MC??? Like, explain to me what is this "TrueEnd"? Is this really Tricolour Lovestory or am I playing the wrong game?

Speaking of different characters and MC, the story itself is just stupid and bland. All the routes in this DLC are even more stupid with their endings and for some reason, after the end credit, it shows the exact same dialogue from both routes??? Like who wrote this story? Not to mention, this DLC is locked from the Chinese language and game save, so you can't even have an English version, too. Meanwhile, the base game and Chapter 0 have both versions but this one doesn't have?

Poor decision and scam baiting.

Happy 5 years anniversary for Deep Rock Galactic

Deep Rock Galactic is the best game I have ever played. I had been scouting a lot of single and coop games. Some of them are just dead servers because of the player base or the gameplays are just dull and pretty forgotten. But this game makes my gaming experience more enjoyable and more connected to the life of dwarves.

DRG has it all for new and veteran players. You are dwarves, dwarves are mining minerals, gold, and more, dwarves are fighting endless hordes of alien monsters, dwarves love beers, and dwarves always ROCK AND STONE.

There are 4 classes for you to choose from, they have their own unique gameplay for single and coop experience, so I do recommend to all new players try all 4 classes to get the feeling of the weapon for each class and the support tool. The cave generation is what makes this game more enjoyable because exploring the same caves is pretty boring and sometimes it can lead to burnout, so having the cave be different is a good game setting for everyone to keep exploring more. You may not get something interesting, sometimes you find gold chunks and bittergem at the same time, and sometimes the game throw unexpected boss fight, it just makes me want to explore more. The world of Hoxxes are very unique and beautifully well-made too, you have a biome that is pure nature. And you have radioactive, poison, volcano, electricity, and giant crystals,...

In terms of gameplay, mission types are really fun to play. You always have the main object that must be done and the secondary object that is optional to do, the rewards are based on the hazard bonus, you may get fewer rewards if you are new to the game but it keeps better and better once you tried out a higher hazard level. The gameplay is very slow to build up your dwarves, it requires dedication and patience to keep your gameplay more engaging and fun to play. The endgame content is what you want to keep playing more, deep dives, machine events, and overclocks will be your main endgame content for getting more upgrades and more accessories for your dwarves to make look cooler. Not only that, players can access a completely free season pass, with no payment required, and the way to get all seasonal items is just by playing the game. Even if you can't get all seasonal items, you can get them at any time so don't need to worry about the fear of missing out.

10/10

DRG is the best coop game so far, there may be some games out there but I can't deny that this is by far my favorite game to play.

Thank you, GSG. Rock and Stone

Ori and the Blind Forest is an amazing metroidvania game with beautiful artwork, visual background, character development and gameplay. But the most important one is a touching and emotional storyline. I am not regret playing this game whenever I want to, everything in this game is make my mood feel better.

The soundtrack of this game is a masterpiece with the behind scenes, even though I can listen these on Spotify, I am still buying the soundtrack on Steam to support the dev of making this wonderful game.

Ori and the Blind Forest, you always make a lot of players want to play and enjoy this lovely story

This game is a perfect example why you should experience the masterpiece of everything in this game.

The story is easily 10/10 for me, the soundtracks are on fire and make me want to replay, the visuals are so unique and beautiful. The gameplay is amazing. Everything in this game are just want me to revisit at any time that I want. I am glad to buy this game with a huge discount and play it like crazy grinder.

Thanks you Ori&WotW, a game that I fall in love and always a big fan.

This is a boring and tedious gameplay.

The whole point of this game is just point and click and upgrade your smith shop, that's it. Even there are some unique characters for doing side quest, all of this is just making weapons with the requirement stats. Also there is no replayability and the achievements are garbage and wasting time to do.

For anyone want to stare your screen all day and just click and click, this game is perfect for you.

For anyone played Honkai Impact 3 in GLB server, I advise you to play on GLB client, not on Steam because it will break you.

This is probably one of, if not the worst decision of Hoyoverse to make Steam version. There's no different at all, the same server NA and EU but on Steam. Yeah, you can top-up on Steam so you don't have to manually top up from the mobile and get the crystals on the PC, but I would ask you why you just stick to the client because guess what, you can't use your own account from client though Steam so you are forced to start again from scratch.

Honestly, what's the point of this Steam version?

I haven't played any of the BTD series except this one so my review may get misinformation ~

Bloons TD 6 is one of few games that I actually love to play, it is a good defence game with plenty of strategic possibility for casual / lazy player. Bloons TD 6 is not a game when u just place random towers and win everything, sure u can do on the easy map but when u go for some harder maps, it requires placements, strategics, combination and commitment to beat it.

For microtransaction, the only things that acutally useful are double cash mode and race pass but that doesn't mean that these two aspects are p2w, u can still beat this game without this (except race pass if u really tryhard just to get top tier player). There are also some irrelevant aspects which u can get these by just simply play the game (monkey money, insta-monkey, monkey knowledge ).

For achievements, even u just play for fun, there are some really good achievements to get more ingame money, more skill point and some insta-monkey. Some of them are just simply play and somes are grinding. The only tedious achievements are "Sapper", "Crash of the Titan" and complete 100 oddysseys , imo.

Single player is great but coop it needs some reworks or changes, I hate the fact that if one player get lag, bad internet, etc, all player will be affected due to that one player. Also the quick match is broken auto start without notice it so either play with friend or suffer with random people.

Overall, despite some of these issues in this game, I would recommended this game for anyone who want to play defence games, I don't know much about other btd series (1-5, battle, etc...) but this one caught my eyes and also this game is very cheap on sale so do me a favor, buy this game and u won't regret. Probably i will play other bloons td games in the future, who knows.
