Finished my 10th game this year, although some of them are replays :VNice thread.
1) Blasphemous
A really neat Metroid-vania that isnt too difficult.
2) Dark Souls II
(09/02/2020)
Originally got halfway through this then dropped it for SOTFS, finally finished it today.
3) Metro Exodus
(23/02/2020)
Got the "bad" ending.
4) DOOM Eternal
(24/03/2020)
Great game, although near the end it got a bit too hectic for me.
5) Castle Of Illusion
(04/04/2020)
Pretty short and simple platformer.
6) Jettomero
(03/05/2020)
Neat little game about a robot trying to save humanity. Soundtrack and artstyle is really nice.
7) Dead Space Series
(10/07/2020)
Played through the whole series again now 3 is on STEAM. Probably my favourite horror series.
8) Darksiders Genesis
(23/07/2020)
A worthy addition to the series, let down by some bugs and control issues.
9) Toki
(24/07/2020)
Never actually finished this back in the day, so just put it on Easy and beat it in under 2 hours.
10) Halo 3 MCC
(02/08/2020)
Finished a Heroic playthrough, still my favourite in the series.

---|---|---|---|---|
47 | The Citadel | 4 | A fast paced shooter with an anime aesthetic. While the game has a number of neat ideas and solid moment-to-moment gameplay, it also suffers a number of poorly thought gameplay mechanics, uninspired levels, and a big helping of jank. | ★★ |
48 | AMID EVIL | 6¾ | An Hexen/Heretic inspired FPS. Not terrible, but weapons don't feel particularly great and each level has only a small number of different enemies. Ultimately it was not that exciting to play. | ★★★ |
49 | Seven Days: The Purple Envelope | ¾ | A short bookend to the true end of the visual novel Seven Days, released as free DLC. If you've already played and enjoyed Seven Days, then do not miss out on this chapter. | ★★★★ |
50 | Steins;Gate | 20½ | A great time-travel themed visual novel. Steins;Gate stands out with its unusual aesthetic, a great cast of characters, and a solid use of time-travel as a narrative device. It does have some unfortunate aspects, but overall ended up being a very positive experience. | ★★★★★ |
51 | Ultimate DOOM | 4¾ | At its core DOOM still holds up, which is impressive for a game that old. That said, I did play it using a modern engine. | ★★★★ |
52 | The Silver Case | 13½ | The book club visual novel of the month. An intriguing read, but also one that kept piling on twists long after it should have started wrapping up the story, to the point where the story felt like a mess at times. | ★★★ |
Big recommendation for everyone, great game with nice RTX.20. Ghostrunner - 9½
I keep meaning to play this.Updated for Murdered: Soul Suspect
I've been playing this on a real slow burn since, no joke, 2010, now that you've finished it I'm still in the running for the last person ever to complete it.69. Ratchet & Clank Tools of Destruction - Good silly fun, travel the galaxy reducing enemies to their component parts. I did kinda zone out on the story after a while, it's more convoluted than the Matrix sequels. Can't spam Mr. Zurkon like in the PS4 remake, so you just spam the laser turret instead. The final boss was a decent challenge as well though I thought at times health pickups were very limited with the long long breaks between save points. ★★★ 1/2

53 | Project Warlock | 5½ | Good old-school inspired shooter with a nice aesthetic. The difficulty curve is a bit weird, with the game being the most difficult in the beginning and then spiking a few times before flattening out as you've built up a large arsenal of weapon, weapon upgrades, and powers. Some of the later weapons/upgrades feel very overpowered. | ★★★★ |
54 | Doom II: Hell on Earth | 6 | DOOM II was honestly a bit of a disappointment after playing DOOM I. The new enemies and weapons were an improvement, but the level designs were a massive step down from DOOM I. | ★★★ |
55 | Koihime Musou | 30¼ | I picked this up after playing Eiyu Senki, since I wanted something similarly casual. That turned out to be a mistake. This game is worse than ES in every way imaginable and completely squanders what is actually an interesting premise. The gameplay in particular was such a massive wet fart that the it would have been a major improvement if you could just skip it outright, but sadly that is possible after clearing the game once. Sheer stubbornness is the only reason why I ever finished this game. | ★ |
56 | Coffee Talk | 4½ | Coffee Talk is VA-11 Hall-A if it were written by a teetotaler, and one desperately trying to be socially aware. The first part just gave the game an odd feel, since the setting felt like a bar in all aspects but the beverages served. The second part is fine with me, but I came away from the game feeling like it dealt with those issues in a way too coy and shallow manner. At the end, I probably enjoyed the lofi music more than the story and (limited) gameplay. | ★★★ |
57 | Bokuten - Why I Became An Angel | 19¾ | Bokuten had a lot of things going for it, including good music, good art, a likable cast of characters, and an interesting premise/mystery, and it even impressed me by handling one particular topic with much more sensitivity than I expected from your typical eroge. But then it sorta went off the rails, with the last common-route chapter being a colossal 'what the fuck were the writers thinking!?'. Side routes were weak, with one includings its own WTF, and overall the game did not do a great job of delivering satisfying (tragic) endings. However, despite all that I still came of out Bokuten mostly having enjoyed my time with it, though I cannot really recommend it. | ★★★ |
