I'm saying this as someone who has a BA in literature, this thing is HARDCORE! HARDCORE TO THE MEGA!

Kim is LOVE. Kim is LIFE.

HOLY FFFF XEN IS AWESOME HOW DID THEY MAKE XEN NOT SUCK

I view this one as a nice mix between Medal of Honor/Old CoD X Half-Life when it comes to gameplay. I know Wolfenstein as a franchise is the father of all that, but this entry is without a doubt comparable its contemporaries. I played the game without any additional content, but via ioRTCW, the sourceport realRTCW is based on. I think it's worth a playthrough or more because it is fun. I can only speak for the vanilla experience and it's certainly a good game that can stand on its own, but it feels old especially when it comes to the enemy AI. If you can't bear dated AI, maybe try the mod.

Long story short, you get to slaughter hordes of nazis. Can't ask for more, shooting down fascists with style never gets old.

I love the vibes, the concept and all that. It's a bit weak/inconsistent in the plot and voice acting department, but you overlook these things once you get into the game. The only problem with this game is that there is not much of a deep, or engaging or, well, "fun" gameplay involved. You drive your HOVA around cool cyberpunk city of Nivalis form A to B, and you're almost always free to explore. It's in that regard a story-focused game, so if you don't expect some crazy action packed game it's pretty enjoyable most of the time. But yeah I can see this being very boring for some people.

If this ain't labor of love, idk what is.

It's honestly way more fun than the failed attempt that was Hot Wheels Unleashed. This DLC has way more content than that WHOLE game, and with way less repetition, which is sad; I simply love Hot Wheels. You also learn about Hot Wheels in a short series of Story mission that are pretty easy. The driving is much faster than in the base game, which does not disappoint. The map is pretty fun and the cars you get from the DLC are pretty unique.

It's very good and full of surprising and engaging mechanics. Definitely worth a shot if you're even a tiny bit interested in a story about game development.

I've played this enough now to compare it to 2018, which some people may prefer over 2021. In my experience though, 2021 is a total overhaul full of improvements over 2018. The garage is way less claustrophobic with a neat outside area, there are many QoL improvements in general, and most of the new additions to cars and mechanics are simply better. It also just looks better, too. Now, there are mods that basically double the features and improve on the rest, but so far I didn't feel bored enough to spice my game up that way. Adding new cars via the workshop just works for me. But just know that the game is heavily moddable in any of its aspects, as well.

We've now got our answer: this doesn't hurt the fish. The hedgehog, however...

This is a nice chill game about driving and maintaining your car on an endless post apocalyptic world with light survival elements. The jank is a part of the experience, and there are even attempts at world building via multiple radio stations (à la GTA radio) which is something I really like.
