First off, this game is great!

Secondly, "Metal Gear Survive" never was intended to be a canon game. It is a spin-off!
So wipe away your tears. If you read the title closely you can see that it does not say "Metal Gear Solid Survive".
And yes, there are microtransactions. But like in MGS 5 you do not have to use them at all!

This game has some solid gameplay containing some elements from MGS 5 and a new well made suvival system.
You have to eat and drink regularly or you will die. Easy. Of course this system does not stick to reality but well remember... it is a game! Also, you have to collect materials and all your gear will wear off so you have to keep it in good condition or craft new gear if you can.

Furthermore, I really like the atmosphere - I guess that is the main aspect for me in games.
You are alone in the dust, trying to be silent, to scavenge without being scavenged yourself.
Over time you will have to explore some wrecks which is pretty interesting and dark too.

Moreover, there is base building. Here you have to build protection, shelter, crafting tables and stuff for food production. It is not too complex though meaning that it is a lot of fun for me.

All in all, Metal Gear Survive is a neat survival experience,
Konami did a good job on this. If you can think straight you can buy this game. It is not a Metal Gear Solid but it is entertaining and has it's own charm!

This game is art!

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice is a very unique experience.
You play Senua, a celtic warrior suffering from psychoses.
The first impression is already mindblowing as you hear all the voices inside her head - if you play with a headset.
The depression of Senua, her disparity to reality, build the core of the game which has a catching story that really shows what it is like to suffer such mental illnesses.

The gameplay is nothing too special but I really love the fighting system. It is very simple yet fun and feels very realistic because you figure out your own moves and repeat them. The battles are fun due to their simplicity and also due to the challenge coming along sometimes.

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice looks amazing. UE4.
Moreover, the atmosphere could not be better. Achieved of course by the graphics, it is really dark and cold.
Furthermore, confusion will be on your side all along. Most of the game you do not really know what is real and what is not. That twist is great! While you play you also get to know some history by so called lore stones.

All in all, this game is something completly new. It is priced at a middle level but it gives you a AAA experience even if it may be a bit short. Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice echants with it's atmosphere created mainly by the voices in Senua's head.

If you like linear games that are not too happy but very well made you should definately but this game! You will not forget this experience.

Tales of Zestiria...
I pre-ordered it but let it down after 10 hours of gameplay. Probably because I did not take all the battle explanations and tips serious enough and so the battles became too hard fast.
After one and a half years I gave it another try because a friend of mine told me how she loved this game and just of course because I bought it.

The story is quite good though not too epic. It has some great turning points and small plot twists.
With that said, there is no more to say about the story for me.
Of course the characters have the typical anime charme and they made me smile sometimes.

The gameplay is unfortunately very repetitive. Battles are always the same. I guess the devs really put effort in the fighting system because there are some things you gotta get. But thats it. You get some new moves here and then but they do not change the battles. You get annoyed of battles pretty fast and it will lead to button smashing.
Moreover, the world is designed bad in my opinion. It is not looking bad in general but it looks empty and as if it was made without love. I did not want to discover the world but I was happy if I finished an area as fast as possible.

In conclusion I can say that only the story kept me playing. If I got Tales of Zestiria for free, I would not have given it a second chance. For fans this game is great I assume but it was not for me so I can not recommend you to buy this game.

Ori and the Blind Forest is a masterpiece.

Already the main menu is art and when I saw it for the first time I knew, that this game is exactly what it promised to be: a piece of art that is fun to play.

This game has a wonderful art style. Everything looks to be made with much love and just looking at the scenes is truly awesome. I can not describe the visual style very well but it's just gorgeous.
For me, the graphics are the best aspect of the game.

Additionally, the music just totally underlines the game perfectly and is just like the graphics but aurally. This soundtrack is a soundtrack I plan to buy!

The gameplay of Ori and the Blind Forest is fun but challenging. You unlock more and more skills that you have to use, so it gets more exciting but also more difficult.
In the world of this game are many things to see and discover. I liked it to go through some parts of the map more often.

Again, I want to point out that this is one of the most beautiful games I've ever played so far and this game is worth it just for it's visual appearance!
Nevertheless, it's fun to play it too and so this game is a masterpiece for me!

I totally recommend you to buy and play Ori and the Blind Forest.

Telltale Games games are always awesome - I suppose.
I played three titles so far and I was impressed.

The Wolf Among Us does not play in my typical setting. Anyway it cought me so that I played through it in two days.
Telltale Games games are rich of story and so is this game. It's catchy and easy to follow.

Don't wait to buy this game if you already liked a Telltale Games game or just like cool stories.

Not touching, besides the end.

I really like atmospheric games with a good story. When I heard of this game I was excited: Another game which is said to have a great story and also a style that grabbed my attention.
This game became mine in a sale, so I at least didn't complety waste my money.

Valiant Hearts is not made badly. It is not buggy or something like this.
Valiant Hearts is just boring. Now some people could insult me as ignorant but read my other reviews then you will see that I actually pretty much like stories.

The topic is great. A topic for the whole world, the WWI. But this game doesn't really shows you the horror of war.
There is no blood, no rifles to shoot, no screams. That sounds like I only like games that are brutal but that's wrong again. I just think that you need some brutality to show the cruelness of war.
Moreover, the "puzzles" are as easy as they were made for 12-year-old gamers.

Since the gameplay is boring and not fitting to the topic the story could be interesting, right? Yes. Nevertheless the story is just as boring as the gameplay.
Some people here say the story is sad and catching. It's not. I can not describe it, it is simply not catching or sad or whatever.
Maybe I don't feel with the characters because they don't speak but rather use sounds to communicate which is again a point that appears in games for younger people.
The only thing which is sad and touching is the end, but I don't like playing 7 hours for just one great moment.

In conclusion, Valiant Hearts is a boring game. It deals with a good topic but it can not deal with it. The gameplay is too soft and the story is just like the gameplay.
I can totally not understand the people who say this would be a catching and great game. I just can recommend you to not buy Valiant Hearts.

MOTION SICKNESS

I liked the game as far as I could play it. Unfortunately I suffer from Motion Sickness and this game is one of the worst games for me concerning Motion Sickness.
So this should be a warning to everyone who suffers from Motion Sickness too.

Don't buy this game if you already got sick of other games due to Motion Sickness!

A fckng awesome game!
Spec Ops: The Line is a very deep shooter.

You play as Martin Walker, the Captain of the Delta Squad.
Your mission is to look for survivors. Your mission fails hard.

This game is very breathtaking. But not at first sight:
you should play it at least twice to discover the real potential of this game.

The shooter gameplay is nothing special but it's fun of course.
What's the heart of the game? It's the story and also the behavior and change of the characters.
It could be that the story is confusing for you sometimes; that should be the moment when you realize you have to play the game again.

I really liked the well thought out dialogues that underline the feelings and the incidents. After playing it twice I felt like I was in the game too.
Moreover. Spec Ops: The Line has a well matching soundtrack.

Furthermore, there should be a movie based on this game I personally think!

All in all, Spec Ops: The Line is a catching game, that has a focus on showing how war is or could be.
You get into the cruelness of war and that quite good.
I recommend buying this game for a(nother) very special experience with a good background.

Transistor...
The next perfect game by Supergiant Games.

This time the developers put some more effort into the gameplay than in the story I personally think, but that's no problem at all! Maybe I shouldn't even compare Bastion and Transistor because Supergiant Games might wanted do something different... Anyways.

You start right away in middle of the game and the story. The setting is a Sci-Fi world, more precisely I guess it's something like an online world.
In Transistor you experience the story chronologically. In the beginning there are some minor gaps, which get filled soon. The story catches you and you want to know what happens next. Nevertheless, to be honest I have to say that I liked the story of Bastion better but the story of this game is not bad at all!

The gameplay is quite cool. Transistor's gameplay contain some nice features that underline the story and the atmosphere. That includes electing something on a terminal or some breaks for the protagonist. These breaks are implemented as beautiful pictures.

What I liked the most is the combat system.
Time to time you get more attacks and can combine these like you want. This mixing provides a great variety to fighting in Transistor. Also, there is a "plan mode" in which you can plan moves and then perform then fast. That looks very cool and is fun too.
Lastly, you can, as well as in Bastion, increase the difficulty on your own.

Supergiant Games games always catch you with their atmosphere so I didn't write anything about the atmosphere here.

Okay, I can not write this review without mentioning Darren Korb and his great job on composing marvellous songs for this game. The music matches perfectly to the game and is an essential part of it, just like in Bastion.

I come to the conclusion that Transistor is another awesome game by Supergiant Games. It's a perfect game that doesn't need improvements at all! If you liked Bastion or you want to play something different but brilliant buy Transistor now!

The Walking Dead by Telltale Games is a great thrilling game.

First off, I guess that games are more thrilling than series. You can make decisions and really emphasize with your character. Everything is more emotional than in series. I would describe this game as an interactive series.

Now, this game knows how to capture you with it's story perfectly. The emotions come over quite well and will capture you. To make out what is the best thing to do you emphasize with all the persons around you. In a situation of danger you have to make heavy decisions and these effect the people around you. If someone doesn't like you he won't help you, for example.
Of course you can not change the whole story with your acting but you can decide about life and death of your company, directly and indirectly.

Playing this game means tension all the time. You are always scared about whether someone dies or not or whether you die or not.

Furthermore, there is the action part of the game. Sometimes you have to shoot some zombies or click somewhere fast to react to another person. These quicktime events are a cool variety and give the game the last polish.

To sum up, I totally want to recommend buying this game. Just everything is fine in this game: the story, the emotions, the effects of your acting... It's an awesome interactive story that is going to capture you soon. And if you like The Walking Dead anyways you shall not miss this magnificent zombie game.
