I am not a big racing gamer but this game truly hits different.

Back then I played FH4 and I never really got into it. There's just something lacking for me. But now that I tried FH6, even though the game is fundamentally a similar game only with different settings, it really hooked me.

I think one of the biggest part of it is the setting of Japan. I feel they really nailed the feel for the most part. It felt like a pilgrimage for a lot of people who are familiar with Initial D. The map is not overly huge with a lot of nothing as in FH4. It is more jam packed with activities and off-roads. There's almost no wasted space for the most part. This would be a game where the art team should be proud of because it's mostly because of them that the old formula of FH game truly shines in this game world.

Gameplay wise it's mostly the same as previous FH as far as I know, but now that I am playing this game quite extensively I started to understand and appreciate how the driving itself feels. I think FH did a good job on striking a good balance between arcade feel and simulation feel. It's definitely not as arcade as NFS, but definitely not as simulation as Gran Turismo. It can be challenging, it can be fun, and it definitely can be both. You can literally have fun and spend a lot of time just driving around in this amazing world they have built.

My only complain is it's not performing amazingly on AMD GPU and Linux. With AMD GPU I noticed a few frame dips here and there, and it is worse if you use ray tracing. While on Linux there are just some issues such as some audio channels not working, sometimes you can hear music but not conversations and car sound.

I am enjoying it a lot. Probably one of the most enjoyable experience playing a racing game ever since the old Need for Speed era circa 2004. Truly recommended. You should give it a try.

Finally got around to playing this game. I played the first Blasphemous quite some time ago and I really enjoyed it, but this sequel definitely did what the first did and make it better.

I really like that they are not trying to cater to "hardcore" players. A lot of games that are known for their difficulties would usually try making their subsequent games even harder and challenging at the expense of fun, aka they are making it hard for the sake of being hard. But this game gives you a challenging game while also strikes a good balance between being hard and being doable, hence successfully incentivizing even casual player to beat it. There are also few QoL over the first game such as removing the insta-death instance when you fall on a trap.

Meanwhile, the visual style, music, and voice acting is still as peak as I remembered. I really like the theme of this surreal world where everything feels dark, dystopian, and it touches upon mortality, humanity, and disturbing holy entities.

All in all, very solid game.

Fantastic game. Back when RE4 was released it was probably one of my favorite game and I considered it to be the best RE game of all time. Now that Resident Evil 4 Remake is a thing, it yet again became one of my favorite game and I considered it to be the best RE game of all time.

I am amazed how they successfully remade the game mostly the same as the original, while also redesigning some levels to be better, modernized the controls, and delivered the most definitive experience you can get for RE4.

The core design of the game remain unchanged, but the implementation makes it very fresh and new even for players who have played RE4 probably for dozens of hours. The AI are also definitely improved. One of the most annoying mechanic from the original RE4 has been revamped and now it is not an annoyance anymore (if you know, you know, and I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't played the game yet).

Modernized controls makes Leon to be more versatile, not anymore a tower defense character when you have to aim and shoot, while also adding new challenges and dynamics because as Leon improves, so do the enemies.

The gameplay feels satisfying. Guns feel very punchy and heavy. Enemies are unrelenting. It proves to be a great experience and it adds learning curve for every players who play the game.

RE4 Remake is a masterful blend of survival action horror game, and probably one of, if not, the best Resident Evil game to date.

The best way to describe the game is lost potential.

This game has all the recipe to be an amazing game. In fact, I truly enjoyed my time playing this for the most part. I think if you like LEGO games and also like Jurassic Park, you'll probably enjoy the game for what it is. It is a surprisingly expansive game in a small container.

But I truly despise the technical side of it. It has so many issues that detracts me from enjoying the game the fullest. Out of the top of my head I can easily mentioned several issues such as:
- No windowed mode.
- Lazy audio mixing. Both quality and volume can be either good or terrible. It's all over the place.
- Controller issues. Controller not being recognized or suddenly can register everything except for movement if you went idle and reconnect your controller midway.
- Gamebreaking bug such as character getting stuck or cannot climb over something, softlocking your progress. Probably due to the game can't handle higher frame rate.
- Terrible UI design mainly for character selection. Roulette design of choosing a characters/skins are so dumb.

The game is such a fun game. It's just disappointing that it was riddled by all those issues.

It's such a great dark surreal horror narrative-driven game. It's a part of The Devil Came Through Here trilogy and a sequel of The Cat Lady.

The story is so good and wacky, it delivered a fresh air for the horror game scene. Similar to The Cat Lady, it touches upon sensitive theme such as mental illness. I think the devs understand how to create the game to be an allegory of real-world issues that we rarely talk about and it actually hits hard.

It has good art style, good music, and good voice acting, albeit the quality can be a bit inconsistent or sound a bit crispy because it was done mostly by a very small group of indie devs.

I think my gripe about this game is the level design. As the game takes place in one bigger place rather than different levels, it has its highs and lows. I like how the bigger level does make you explore and it reminds me of how older point-and-click game usually treat exploration. But at the same time it might also mean you need to backtrack several times especially when you are missing something, and it's not really fun as your character is moving in a snail pace. I feel this could've been mitigated if the main character can at least run while exploring.

I also think in overall, The Cat Lady still is a superior game despite it is older and this game supposed to be a remake of the original Downfall game from back then.

All in all, I hope people play this game. It's such an interesting game and I think it deserves more recognition.

It is the first game of The Devil Came Through Here trilogy, and what an experience it is!

Amazing narrative-driven game. It's very dark, surreal, and mature. It delves into sensitive topic such as mental illness. I think they delivered such a great story in a really good way. It can be really emotional and dark, and sometimes it can be too close to home and hits really hard.

I am surprised how the game is very bold on how they tell and depict disturbing topic. I loved the character development of the main character. There's even sprinkle of sarcastic and light-hearted joke that really enriches the characters and make them feel more human.

The art style is great. I think it's really unique. The graphical imagery can be creepy, and even downright disturbing.

It's such an amazing experience. I implore everyone to at least try and give it a chance.

What a pleasant surprise.

As someone who really like clicker games, this is one of the most creative idle-clicker game.
Mixing surreal horror with clicker and classic pixel point-and-click puzzle resulted in an amazing blend.

The fact that they have a story makes it a really unique experience. You have a clear goal and you achieved it by completing milestones by acquiring items and solving puzzles while also getting stronger through rebirth. It makes the game experience very compact rather than just chasing an infinite amount of incremental increase.

Gud gaem.

Is it the best RE of all time? Maybe in the Top 3.
Is it the scariest RE of all time? Yes.
Does it live up to the hype? Definitely.

Amazing game, amazing sequel in the mainline series.

Capcom is pulling out all the stops. RE Requiem is a culmination of three decades of game making experience. They are using everything in their RE arsenal to make a definitive experience, for now.

I love how Capcom succeed on making new characters ever since RE7 with Ethan, and now with Grace. The character is amazing and it expands on the RE universe.

I also really like seeing the power dynamic between each characters, to show how inhuman Leon is and to show how human Grace is.

The enemies in this game, especially when you are playing as Grace, is such an unique experience to encounter. You'll get to find out that you need to use various ways to navigate through the game as Grace has no combat capabilities like Leon does.

The voice acting in RE9 has been amazing, but Grace's VA specifically deserves a shoutout, and I doubt anything this year will surpass her performance in this game for this year. Phenomenal. There are story bits that won't work as well if they don't have her VA capabilities.

"Grace is too timid for RE", "The game is too short!", "Why is there stalker style enemy in RE?". You'll see people making these comments and all I can say is you've just seen tourists yelling at the sky because clearly they are missing the points, or more likely some people just want something to get upset about.

And of course, I do have my own criticism. There is a point in this game nearing the end when it reminds me so much of RE6/RE4's Island section. It was quite ridiculous and it seems Capcom almost forgotten that both RE6 and RE4's Island section is the weakest thing about RE. Luckily it's a very short section of the game that was outshine by the rest of the game so you'd tolerate it.

All in all, if you've been a lifelong fans of RE or at least have played RE2 Remake and liked it, you need to play this game.

What a masterpiece.

This is how you do a remake. They successfully created a great remake of their oldest game in the series. They are using their experience from decades of game making into this remake and I love it so much. Truly a love letter for the longtime fans and a great entry for anyone who want to dip into the world of Trails for the first time.

Literally every single aspect I can think of that I dislike on their previous games has been modified or fixed. There's a bunch of QoL improvements such as marking every quests so there's no more "hidden quests", alongside modern combat mixing 2 different styles that players can utilize with so many features that really helps the sluggishness of the original game.

The graphics are gorgeous. The art style and character models are amazing.

But one thing surely stands out the most for me, which is voice acting. When I first heard about the recasting of the original voice actors, I was a bit skeptical. But after finishing this game I do have to say the casting were spot on. I already knew the story, I knew what's going to happen, but it still hits really hard because of the voice actor performances that really delivers the best out of the story. It instills so much emotion to the story.

Amazing remake, amazing game. It's a shame that it didn't get that much attention globally and got ignored in some awards. It's really not a surprise that this game ended up as one of the most successful release by Nihon Falcom.

Must try especially for JRPG lovers.
