10/10

Best indie game of 2023 (as of July) and the best rouge-lite where you collect materials to sell in your shop.

The game runs bad on overkill hardware and isnt fun. All they got right was the aesthetic.
The gunplay kinda blows, the story wasn't gripping, The AI is janky and unrealistic.
The fact that this game has positive reviews is a disgrace to the games industry imo.
CD:PR is a business that makes games not a game developer, they may be a more ♥♥♥♥♥♥ toxic company than Bethesda is.
Im happy I avoided all the BS pre-release hype for this game.f

2/10 great aesthetics, bad programming, bad game feel

Its the best VR game

Bad inventories, meaningless loot, and sometimes questionable attack telegraphing are problems that many souls-likes struggle with. Nioh not only does nothing to improve on these issues it also makes the problem significantly worse by adding an ubsurd amount of equipement drops most of which are the same with minor stat differences. Nioh made me appreciate the big ineffecient attack animations of Dark Souls much more. The bosses in Nioh love to immidiately turn around with little to no signalling and take out half of your health, likely lead to being stunlocked to death. At least in Dark Souls the ineffiecencies in user experience are rewarded with top shelf game play elements because without it the format is to frustrating to be worth the effort.

The game isnt that bad, if Steam let me write a neutral review I would. If you dont mind spending half of your time reading very similar item descriptions I would recommend it. However I do mind doing that when I want to spend my time grinding bosses. I may even finish the game because I dont respect my own time.

Any Souls-Like by FromSoftware is awesome even if its bad and you should give them your money. Sekiro is my favorite and Dark Souls 1 is my other favorite, I refuse to choose between them.

Fantastic buy if you dont respect your time

Super fun, great co-op and singleplayer, worth buying now, needs multiplayer.

Mathematically Enter the Gungeon is a 20/10 game

The Binding of Issac = 10/10
Nuclear Throne = 10/10
The Binding of Issac + Nuclear Throne = Enter the Gungeon

therfore

10/10 + 10/10 = 20/10
