Waited a year. Suck it Epic.

$31.99 on Steam not too shabby. (It is back to $39.99 after promo period ends Sept 3).

Underrated game. Has a few frame issues in spots (don't know if this was patched) but the story is really interesting with good gameplay.

Was really hoping this would come to Game Pass. I guess that's probably unlikely with them dropping the Ultimate Edition.

I played for 2.5 hours straight last night. Hardly do that for any game anymore.. so it's definitely interesting. Can't wait to see what happens. Heard the bosses get kind of tough. I recall fighting Salvador at my friend's house and just couldn't beat it.. but probably wasn't giving 100% effort since it wasn't my game and I had no idea what was going on in the game to that point.

I was wondering why it was an ultimate edition when I didn’t recall there being a regular edition.

just finished the new AWE expansion, was pretty disappointing imo. was really expecting alot more than what it offered.

i enjoyed the Foundation one tho.

the combat gets tiring after awhile, at least to me. exploring and flying around is fantastic, so that has kept me coming back to play the DLCs.

I really liked control. Foundation was a solid albeit short dlc. I didn’t hate the awe dlc, but it definitely felt less like control content rather than a control 2/Alan wake 2 announcement.

I am interested in what comes next. But I wish 505 games wouldn’t be such dicks about supporting next gen upgrades. Makes it hard to support remedy moving forward.

Absurd difficulty spikes in the combat plus the horrible checkpoint system is a mood killer at times. Loved the main game despite all of this, but if it wasn't for the well written lore, it would be a very difficult game to play through again.

supposedly the August update added new checkpoints.

they also added some difficulty adjustments like invincibility, auto aim, cool down sliders, etc.. which was very welcome cause the new DLC is really hard but I was not feeling it all.

Downloaded this on my PS5 because it was free game in February. Just getting started, but I’m enjoying it a ton.

Platinum’d it last week. I was really into it at first, but it really started to show its arse towards the end. Combat got stale, story had 0 questions answered in the end, and the game is way too reliant on collectibles to deliver story

Like every non-Max Payne game from Remedy, it’s a cool concept with weak execution

Yeah I’m only a couple hours in, but I can see it being pretty repetitive after a while. I’m enjoying the powers and the gun play. It’s also real smooth on 60 FPS. I saw the campaign is only 10-12 hours, so at least it’ll be a quick play.

easy platinum if you keep up with the Board Countermeasures as you play. Can abandon as many as you want too fwiw, just shuffle till you get easy ones

For easy mode, just upgrade launch and pierce. Launch shite, use pierce while you recharge, launch more.
