Conclusively Paranoia: Happiness is Mandatory is a great adaption of the Paranoia RPG.
What lies in store for us? Lots of base setup, automating, and exploring. I'm very interested in seeing where the story goes after what I've experienced so far. The character from Arknights that I hope shows up, my fav and first 6-star pull from Arknights, Hoshiguma. At the same time, I hope that it's not a complete rehashing of operators from Arknights. I would like for new people to make an entrance since it's a different celestial body.
Element Space had choices that impacted the game like Mass Effect which I liked. Unfortunately, there were many bugs that caused the game time to be funny, frustrating, and annoying. A good game is there somewhere but the problems need to be fixed.
OctaFight while it can be initially fun and having great music, the game really depends on having people to play with locally and in this time of social distancing that has made it pretty hard since there is no single player.
Writhe is a challenging survival FPS. Games are fast enough that it is great to play on breaks from work.
Marvel Avengers is a roleplaying action brawler video game. The combat is good and responsive. It has similar hub-style play similar to Monster Hunter and Anthem which is not everyone's cup of tea. The main single-player campaign is short but there is much more once that is over. Quickly though it can feel repetitive once you reach the endgame.
For a brawler type game, Tokyo Ghoul: re Call to Exist is okay. The controls seem pretty stiff and gameplay gets repetitive fast. It has everything a brawler normally has but doesn't bring anything unique to set itself apart.
Caravan Stories is MMORPG that has more of single player adventure feel to it.
Throne of Lies can be a lot of fun with the right group of people. Pugging makes that vary a lot but if you have 16 friends looking for a fun time, I'd recommend giving Throne of Lies a try. Even if you don't have friends to make a custom group, go in with a trickster or troll mindset and you'll come out having fun.
Overall, as Wuxia MMORPGs have been few and far between in the west lately, I will say Sword of Justice is a pretty good entry as long as you are okay with playing casually and are not a hardcore player. You can play Sword of Justice now on Mobile and PC.
Overall, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 for Nintendo Switch is a fun game which works well when you get over the steep learning curve of fighting the game’s controls. Playing through the entirety of the DBZ story is a blast, and while some design flaws persisted to the port to the Switch, the game is still worth a play if you are a fan of the series.
Monster Energy Supercross- The Official Videogame 4 is fun racing game with a bit of a learning curve for the controls, but once you start to pick it up so does the fun.
Cyanide & Happiness Freakpocalypse is a point-and-click adventure with all the great comedy one comes to expect from the comics and animations. The story is great and there are many hidden funny gems to discover and unlock. With great voice acting and dialogue, this is a great opening to what is bound to be a fun trilogy.
A Fold Apart was a charming gaming experience with a story true to what being in a long-distance relationship can be like. I love its art style and graphics and its unique way of doing puzzles. I also loved the unexpected feature to choose the gender of your characters.
Spaceland was a fun and challenging experience that is pretty different from a lot of modern-day strategy games that have come out recently.
Gundam Versus is a fun game. If you love the Gundam series you will find something about this to like I’m sure. There is a possibility of gameplay getting stale after a while because it’s a lather rinse experience of playing, get exp, then unlock something. Overall though the game modes are fun and facing skilled players is fun.
From where I stand Dead Maze is a great game to hop in solo or with friends and run around bashing zombies.
If you can find a class you enjoy playing or something you enjoy doing give it a try for that.
Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout has been a fun addition to the Atelier series. As a game that focuses on crafting, it has a wonderful crafting system. At the same time, it does not skip on the RPG and elements and questing. This was my first real playthrough of an Atelier game. With a great story and a deep crafting system and casual playstyle, it has been a joy to play.
Disco Dodgeball Remix is a fun and competitive multiplayer game. In my opinion, it takes some skill to get very good at it to which I can say I need more practice.
