Zombeaver Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Overwatch is awesome. It's extremely polished and I have very little negative to say about it. I like that there are a lot of different playstyles available because of all the different heroes - there's really something for everybody, and even the types that I wouldn't normally gravitate to have proven to be extremely fun; there are very few heroes that I don't enjoy playing (and that's rarely a knock on their design - there's just some of them I'm completely horrendous with). In fact, completely to my shock, the hero that I have the single most playtime with is Mercy - a healer. That was the last thing I expected, but I just find her really fun and satisfying to play. Mercy, Roadhog, and Junkrat are my favorites. I haven't had any issues with the matchmaking per se - there are definitely times where you'll run into lopsided matches, but that's true for pretty much anything. That said, it can sometimes be a frustrating experience to play alone - which is why I have a couple people I play with regularly. The matches are only 6v6 so just having about 3+ in an existing group is beneficial. It's not terrible to solo queue or anything, but having a preexisting group makes it easier to coordinate. The only real complaint I have is that the loot box system is pretty much garbage - it's actually really rare that you get anything worthwhile. Most of the time it's just minor junk. Granted, 100% of the unlocks are cosmetic, so it's nothing that's actually game/balance changing, but it is a significant driving force/motivator for continuing to play - so when you get nothing but garbage 5+ levels in a row (and it'll take several matches to level up once after you're 30+) it can be annoying. There are a few characters that I think need a couple minor tweaks, but Blizzard's actually great about that kind of thing. As I said though - it's extremely polished, plays very well, is very balanced, has a huge amount of depth, and is a blast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombeaver Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 I've been keeping an eye on Axiom Verge for a bit. It looks pretty good and I do love me some Metroidvania. Still a bit more than I'd like to pay for it though. Have you seen Megasphere? It's still in early access, but it looks awesome. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWmfhI9jx8I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SentaiBrad Posted July 2, 2016 Author Share Posted July 2, 2016 I want the rest of the Final Fantasy games, but I can't afford more. xD I seriously spent way way too much and my wishlist is gigantic. X_X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CriticalCid Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I know that feeling. I have 1200+ games in my library and still 500+ on my wishlist… Fortunately I’ve completed my Final Fantasy collection on Steam now. I only miss 5, 6, 11 and 14 but I don’t care about the MMORPG’s and don’t want the ugly iOS ports of 5 and 6 either. Unless they offer the original 16 bit version of those games I don’t bother to buy them and play those two through SNES emulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted July 2, 2016 Author Share Posted July 2, 2016 The GBA versions are better, but I still want them on Steam, I think they're fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
