Fardin Bagherian's Reviews
Horizon Forbidden West is the most standard big budget video game you can find and that is the game's most glaring flaw because as much as everything looks and feels expensive, it also feels as by-the-numbers as possible and lacks the kind of personal touches a product needs to become a true masterpiece.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is truly a new generation video game that uses all this new raw power not just for eye-catching visuals but also for how it can be leveraged to implement new systems in gameplay and level design.

There aren’t that many impressive things to find in Biomutant and it doesn’t feel like even the developers had a clear idea what was the goal here. Combat is too simplistic and kind of boring and the way that the narrator spells everything out becomes tiresome after a short while. The colors are vibrant and the beasts look unique but the whole thing just doesn’t come together in a satisfying way.

Outriders could have become a successful looter-shooter/MMO, but the server issues and macro developer mistakes place the game below other equals. Shortcomings in the narrative, dialogues, sound effects, and AI are so severe that can not be overlooked. The game has impressive looting and customization (the singular thing that does right!), but the repetitive gameplay, unbalanced difficulty and especially server connection issues, and unavailability of the coop with friends offer nothing but frustration and disappointment. You should really leave this game aside.

Ghostrunner can be easily regarded as the surprise game of 2020. A ruthless FPS-Parkour-Ninja hybrid that exceeds expectations. Breathtaking fast gameplay accompanied by vibrant beats and OST keeps you mesmerized. If you fancy fast reflex gameplay don't miss out on Ghostrunner.

In an attempt to gather new players, Project Cars 3 switched to semi-arcade, but to what extent this policy is going to keep its older players happy is another topic. There is no denying the addictive and fun core gameplay of PC3, but the serious and even scandalous technical failures may keep most of the buyers at bay. Meanwhile if you, like the reviewer, think that the graphics aren't everything, then you might as well give this title a shot. Let's hope Slightly Mad Studios patch the game up with some major updates. But with the technical disasters like these, it's very unlikely.

Surge's main focus has always been on its combat aspect, and Surge 2 delivers on this promise too. However, other important elements have experienced a setback which means Surge 2, as an overall package, is not much of an evolution in comparison to the prior title. Graphics design is especially disappointing. If you enjoyed the original, it is more than likely that you will enjoy this one too, but keep your expectations on the same level too.

As stated, this is the intellectual continuation of classic Castlevania games, in which the fun factor is doubled due to the addition of some updated and brand new gameplay mechanics. A proper storyline, engaging gameplay, lovely graphics and high replaybility value make a great game out of this title which also serves as a nostlagic trip. about the launch state of the game, however everything went contrary to this expectation and now we are experiencing one of the best 2D games of 2019! Owing to this, this may be a good opportunity to thank Kuchi Igarashi for this great gift to the fans. In conclusion, if you are an old fan and you are craving an older game experience, do not think twice about buying this game, especially considering that a plethora of free DLC are on their way.

Overall, this title follows the same convention as the previous entry, however, lack of fundamental changes in gameplay, combined with an unsteady story progression, has damaged the game in many ways. On the other hand, using metaphors taken right out of popular movies and the chance to experience them in a gaming setting can offer good, scary time. If you were a fan of the first game, Layers of Fear 2 will satisfy you, but after finishing its 5 hours long story, it is hard to not think about unmet expectations.

It is hard to determine an exact value for this package. On the one hand, it is a good title with all of the additional content and not so new abilities, offered with a price of 30$, on the other hand, if you are someone who has already played the game, there is so little to extract out of this experience due to minimal changes in graphics and gameplay. It is worth noting that rebellion's decision to put a 30$ price point on this remaster is worth the praise. If you have not played Sniper Elite V2 before and you are a fan of sniper games, Sniper Elite V2 Remaster's low price point and high amount of content make it a no brainer for your money.

One Piece World Seeker made us hopeful to finally experience a decent title based on an Anime. Despite the low quality of such games, we were confident that this one is going to be different. However, this game too was a disappointment, one teeming with unused potential. It is true that One Piece World Seeker had the potential to become one of the best Anime-Games ever made, it is unfortunate to see all of it go to waste due to the lack of delicate and precise design by the developers.

Maybe at first glance you conceive Battlefield V as an incomplete copy of Battlefield 1 but be sure that after experiencing it, your opinion will be completely different. It is clear that DICE tried its best to change the game from its roots and the result has been affirmative. these changes while being enjoyable, have added a specific difficulty to the game that makes Battlefield V more epic and thrilling. But on the other side, the hurry to release the game sooner has damaged its body of content, we have a game that is incomplete but given DICE's recognition we hope it will be resolved in the future. Single player campaign of the game is not that satisfying but it can entertain you for 2 or 3 hours. if you are a fan of Battlefield series and prefer epic battles over anything else, Battlefield V won't disappoint you gameplay-wise; and at the moment if you are not happy with its lack of content, my suggestion is to get the game in the next few months.

It is impossible to describe the magnificence of this title in just a few words, but Rockstar has shown that there are still companies out there that are not willing to sacrifice the quality of their games to release more numbers of them. The experience that is being offered here is so pleasure, adrenaline and emotion infused that it is very hard to find a similar game in recent times. Love, Hate, Sacrifice, Death, Life, Survival, Laughter, Treason, Loyalty, Beauty, Ugliness and Cruelty, and whatever that you may think of that would make a game great are packaged in a game named Red Dead Redemption II. Even if you are not a gamer, do a favor for yourself and try this title out. Rockstar has once more broken the boundaries of gaming and sets new standards for it. and due to this, we can easily name Red Dead Redemption a "Modern Epic".

Unfortunately the second DLC for this game does not offer an engaging experience, nor does its price justify its short play time and poorly designed new levels. Maybe if you are a die hard fan of the game and are looking for a reason to get back to its world, you can compel yourself to buy this DLC. But you should note that this experience will only last 5 to 6 hours.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey is complementary to the path Origins started on; a lot of people might not like this approach to the series but we shouldn't ignore the beauties of its world. people who find no correlation between two last games and previous games of the series aren't necessary wrong. Assassin's Creed Odyssey is a rich and beautiful game that will entertain your for hours but truth be told it only uses "Assassin's Creed" name as a complement and is very far from standards of the series. game's RPG mechanics gradually get deeper and tall buildings, crowded cities and silent assassinations change their places with jungles, mountains, horse riding and heavy one-on-one battles. we have to wait and see what Ubisoft has in store for the future of series and will they finally be able to create a balance between the past and new titles of the series or not?

Dead Cells is a punishing game that is not developed for all kind of gamers, but the adrenaline fused and joyful experience makes it a hard pass. The main reason behind the difficulty of Dead Cells is its genre, but it would be wiser of Motion Twin to rework some aspects of it as it is too easy to lose progression after hours of playing. However, it is worth mentioning that the fun gameplay that has been made by developers will keep you from leaving Dead Cells and you will end up repeating the missions with a single sentence in your mind, "One more time".

This title may have some problems, but the freedom that's in offer combined with a cohesive driving system manage to make a fun experience. And although there are shortcomings in the story and Free-roam sections, the ability to choose from a vast amount of options while playing the game, surely offer amusing hours for the Gamer. If developers would have focused on the story and other fore-mentioned areas as much as they did on having many numbers of options, we would be facing a very complete racing experience. But even so, it is still very possible to thoroughly enjoy Crew 2 and remember it for a long time.

In the end, it can be said that this game has lots of potential to turn into an engaging and fun experience. But the lack of content and some minor problems keep it from becoming a true high quality product. Maybe as with Driveclub, developers will keep supporting this one too, turning into a better game in time, but even so, its current situation will surely affect the game's success. And considering all this, experiencing this title can be amusing if you manage to get it with a lower price during sales, and keep your expectations down

Great story and narrative combined with phenomenal and modernized gameplay and flawless graphics and sound design, all mix up to make God of War one of the most memorable games of recent times. Following the story of Kratos who once was a killer machine but is now struggling to raise his son is an engaging and at times, an emotional experience. It is very clear that the risk taken by Santa Monica Studios has paid off and we can't wait to see the next installment in this groundbreaking series.

Zheros is a fast-paced and beautiful Beat’em up, with weak story, broken gameplay, illogical difficulty, and repetitive level-design and combat. Simply don’t play it.
