Just completed Rise of the Ronin.
Visuals - 8.5/10 (great)
Audio - 7.0/10 (good)
Gameplay/Combat - 8.5/10 (great)
Story/Characters - 8.0/10 (great)
Overall - 8.0/10 (great)
Played on Dawn (easy) difficulty. Died around 8 times or so in the game. A few boss battles were tough so I could only imagine how they would be on higher difficulty levels. 90+ hours. All regions checklists 100% completed.
Visually, the character models looked good as did the facial animations. World looked good in some areas but great in other areas. Overall, I didn’t have any issue with the visuals. My biggest gripe would be the pop-in especially with NPC characters just walking around the areas which I noticed to be a huge issue with the Japanese games. Like a Dragon/Yakuza/Takes of Arise/Granblue Fantasy Relink/Ronin all have these issues and in some cases are really bad. Oh well.
Music is really good and fits the missions and objectives. Voice acting is solid and sound effects were good. Nothing spectacular but overall, no complaints.
Combat/gameplay is the game’s strongest aspect. From gliding to using the grappling hook to all the different weapons, stances, etc., game is very deep in this regard. If anything, it’s too deep. Also, way too much loot in the game.
Story/characters was really good. I enjoyed the story and got the good ending so I was very happy. Wasn’t a fan of the Bond system because you need to have a higher bond level in order to unlock all the side quests from each character. Other than that, I enjoyed it and kept me interested.

Taking a break from Granblue Fantasy Relink and started up Eiyuden Chronicle Rising last night since Hundred Heroes will be out soon. Pretty fun game, but the story leaves something to be desired and it's very fetch quest heavy. I might go for the platinum since it doesn't seem too difficult
I've just finished metro last light .
. That morality system is so stupid I spared the evil people when it was a choice & knocked people out when I wasn't being shot at but still ended up with the bad ending

it is not stupid. you didn't do something which was needed. there is walkthrough and you can check, what you didn't do.I've just finished metro last light .

It is stupid , killing the reds & the Nazis shouldn't be a bad thing especially when they're trying to kill you
& it doesn't even make sense when the canon ending for 2033 is the bad one I've not played exodus yet but I bet you play as artyom so the good ending would be canon for last light
This year has been ridiculous
Infinite Wealth (completed, 80 hours)
Tekken 8 (70 hours)
Helldivers 2 (120 hours)
FF Rebirth (completed, 70 hours)

I've been taking a break since I beat ROTR last week... but very excited for Stellar Blade. After that I can finally get to Persona 3.

Didn't think I'd play 25+ hours of FF16 in the past week. Sad that such a great game was a victim of non stop FUD by the media and braindead fanboys. Easily a top 3 game of the generation, and a top 3 Final Fantasy game.
Back to Prince of Persia and hopefully I can beat it before Stellar Blade comes out.

Finished call of Juarez gunslinger. Fun little game you can beat in a weekend if you have time.
