Last Game You Played and What You Would Rate It Out of 10

[minteK917]

8/10 Code Vein, a good mix of things i like, its a bit rough compared to dark souls 3, bloodborne and sekiro which are the formula more refined work. But if you like this genre and like the art style, its pretty neat.

10/10 MHW iceborne, how do you make an already great game better? You just add features and make needed changes on top of it. Even the most frustrating part of MHW which is weapon agument randomess is removed and given place to a controlled grind. Good rebalancing of bonuses on sets. All weapons with new and mostly very useful moves.

Code vein - 5/10. Play either duo with a friend, or solo, for some dark souls like exp. playing with ai bot takes all the challenge out, and this game has nothing else going for it.

Greedfall - 5/10. Props for putting so much thought into story, albeit the main plot line is pretty predictable and boring. Side quests is where the game shines, true depiction of medieval practices, no rainbows and bunnies. Mechanically the game is horrendous.

Surge 2 - 6.5/10. Middle of the road sequel to a dark souls clone. Holds decently if you need to scratch a souls-like itch. Pretty sound mechanically, lacking in the story department big time.

Children of Morta - 8/10. Almost everything you want from a solid roguelight. Art style can be repulsive to many.

[FluFF]

Untitled Goose Game - 9/10. Nothing much to say except that it kicks ass ruining people's day by playing a no fucks given goose, also it has a dedicated Honk button. In essence it's pretty barebones and after like a good 7 hours you are finished with all the tasks but it's funny making a kid lock himself in a phone boot just by being a rude ass honking goose.

Zelda Link's Awakening - 8/10. Bit late to the party but didn't want to spend 60 Euro on it so waited a bit and now it was 41.99 on Amazon so snagged it up. Nothing much to say except the art style is super cute and I fell in love when I saw it at E3, if I was on time for the limited edition I would have paid the 80 Euro for it but it sold out faster then chips over here and without the steelbook etc and I didn't want to spend more then 40 on it cause it's still just a remake.
Like mentioned by others the fps drops are a bit of a sore at times, but just because you expect a game looking like this to never have any serious fps drops on Switch if you see what is able on the switch with other titles.

Yeah, sunk cost fallacy mostly; people have invested a lot of time and/or money in a product which results in them being unable to objectively criticise said product.

I'll have to amend my score to be lower. I swear, as soon as I started to play more after that post, the game's experience has only gotten worse. I'm not even going to touch the fucking DLC.

[endersblade]

Path of Exile - 7/10. I keep coming back to it, and I keep getting bored with it. Vicious cycle.

Phoenix Point - potential 9/10. It's still in Alpha, but I like what I'm seeing. It's sort of an amalgam of new and old X-COM/XCOM. Still a LOT of room for improvement, and I hope they follow through with it.

Crying Suns - 9/10. The background lore and story is DEEP. The combat and gameplay is brutal. I backed this game during its kicker campaign, and I do not regret it. I docked a point though because some of their gameplay choices just don't sit well with me.

The Last of Us (Ps4): 8/10

Quite an astonishing feat to create such great lifelike characters and writing. Unfortunately the gameplay is kinda middle of the pack, there is no enemy variety and you basically do the same thing, prowling around until the end. Everything else is just amazing though, they created quite the post apocalyptic world there, and the set pieces of each chapter are incredibly well written. It's a shame that the gameplay is not really up to par.

Ratchet and Clank (2016): 9/10

I never expected it to rate this one so highly, but all things considered, this really is one of the best platformers of the decade, if not the best. The upgrade system, the minigames, the weapons, the bosses, the overall design, the gameplay variety, the cartoony graphics, it's like playing in a pixar movie. I really wish the collectibles were done a bit better, having to play new game+ for random drops is just bad. Extremely highly recommended even if you don't like platformers.

Is there a fallacy for claiming someone else is using a fallacy when they aren't? Reverse fallacy, maybe? Legit curious. Had that question pop in my head when I saw your post.

That wouldn't be a fallacy, but an assumption, or educated guess.

Argh, sorry about that bruv.

Well, fallacies are by definition are when you think you're acting logically but your thinking is actually colored by an emotion. So wouldn't looking at something and assuming it's a fallacy when it's not be a fallacy? =-)

[Velshin]

I have been playing since the good old 80s so I can be very very picky when it comes to giving games score of 10/10 tbh.

Most recently it is definitely Nier Automata such masterpiece and earlier in 2015 was Witcher 3.

No. That's not what logical fallacies are. Logical fallacies are errors in reason, deceptive or false arguments, false syllogism. Anyway this isn't the place to discuss definitions, so let's stick to sharing opinions about video games.

Batman Arkham Knight (was free in the Epic store).

Why haven't I played this game before? It's quite amazing! 8/10

[Nerovar]

Barotrauma 7/10. Extremely fun game if you play it with friends.

[Rawmac]

Oxygen not included is the life/relationship destroyer, I literally cant stop playing it, 10/10 Its ruining me, I know it, but I don't care, Its been 4 months now, I can barely remember what my wife looks like, I have a sore back and my legs hurt from all the sitting, I've lost weight and friends, but nothing else matters, I'm on by 104th base and THIS is the one that will be perfectly automated I know it!!

God of War: 10/10

I was not expecting this magnitude from a studio that just does hack n slash linear action games. Everything is amped to eleven. One of the best games of its generation.

Sims 4 10/10 w mods 4/10 without mods

[Jastall]

Destiny 2 7.5/10

I played it when it launched on BNet for free but quit very shortly after finishing the rather dull main campaign. I now played the F2P version which still includes a sizeable amount of content, and they've changed a lot of things for the better, including a much reduced emphasis on the cash shop looks like. I've had a lot of fun in Gambit in particular, really like the Exotic hunt quests and the shooting is solid, but the random loot is uninteresting, the UI not that intuitive, the movement is floaty is like in Halo, and I've run out of story content and am fairly certain I won't buy the two paid expansions. Still, I'm having a fun time with this.

Brutal Legend 6/10

A friend of mine kept pestering me to play it, and I don't think I would have liked it much if I wasn't a fan of metal. The gameplay's kind of shit, really, and the story's nothing to write home about either. So the game falls back on its art design and, obviously, the soundtrack.

Borderlands 3 - 8.5/10

Next up is The Outer Worlds

[Zexaniro]

finally played The Last of Us after always hearing the hype - exceeded my expectations. A solid 9/10.

[Pony Soldier]

- Little Nightmares - 9/10

It would been an easy 10/10 for me if it was just longer. It's only about 4 hours at the most. It's definitely a game you can finish in one sitting if you have the time. If you just keep going with the story and ignore all the collectibles I'd say it's an easy 3 hour game. It took me like 2 days to beat it but that's only because the OCD part of me wanted to explore every corner on every level to find as many secrets as I can and kept dying because of it. There is DLC that extends the story a bit but with a different character but I believe it's even shorter than the main story.

The gameplay is super fun, the "monster" designs are awesome and unique, reminds me of Tim Burton's work like Nightmare Before Christmas. It constantly, throughout the game, had me on the edge of my seat and had my heart racing when sneaking around enemies. It's full of suspense. Because of how freaky the monsters look and sound it actually gets you a little freaked out when you get caught.

I highly recommend it to anyone who loves puzzle-platformers with a nice touch of horror. It's really short but sweet at the same time. An awesome and fun experience.

- Currently playing Earth Defense Force 4.1 on PS4. I'd give it a 7/10. It's a good game. You definitely have to have a taste for weird Japanese style games to enjoy it though.

There is a story to it but it's hardly something to pay attention to. All you have to know is that there are giant alien bugs invading and you have to kill them all. They try to fill in the story by giving you bits of dialogue on some missions but you can hardly hear what they're saying over all the shooting and explosions going on around you.

Gameplay is very simplistic but fun. It's like a big shooting gallery with weapon drops and armor upgrades to collect. It's the kind of game where you can just turn off your brain for a while and just shoot and blow up shit. Lots of weapons to collect and use too so if you're tired of playing one way you can switch up your loadout. There's 4 different classes to play as too to mix up the gameplay a little further.

Overall it's just one of those games where gameplay is king. If you can look past the average PS3 looking graphics, the poor story, the bad dialogue then you can have lots of fun with it.

Tetris99: 7,5/10

It sure is fun, but I would like a bit more game modes and options, including a simple local 1v1, because why not.
The highest place I got so far is 6 out of 99.
