The story kept me interested to a great extent and I am really curious to see what will happen in the sequel. While some players who are familiar with Metroidvania games will enjoy Axiom Verge, those who are not as familiar with the genre will have a difficult time enjoying the game.
I stated that I think Apex Legends is the best battle royal game on the market. I do still stand by this in terms of its gameplay. Apex Legends feels great to play, the characters are diverse, the lore and story is amazing. The maps Olympus and Worlds Edge are great and provide players with amazing encounters. However Apex suffers from technical issues and a lack of cross progression. Apex knows what it wants to be, it just needs to overcome its technical hurdles to be even better.
