It never feels old or clunky though, because the style is timeless.
The Way of Kings: Escape the Shattered Plains is the first one that I truly felt like I absolutely needed [a connection to the source material] to enjoy it.
It may be short but it's a fantastic interactive novella that will have its hooks in you from the start

Riftstar Raiders becomes an absolute blast to play. It just might take you a bit of time to get there.
I enjoyed Total War: Arena more than I thought, but I'm not sure if it has enough carrot at the end of the stick for me to keep playing long term.
Sonic Team tried to bring together two franchises as classic as peanut butter and/or chocolate, separately. But in combination, they mix about as well as oil and water.

The controls are relatively simple, the combo, parry, and evade are easy enough to execute and the missions have a good difficulty curve…
While the environmental storytelling is solid, the writing and voice acting lack polish.
While Brass Tactics doesn't break new grounds in the RTS formula, it stands as the best of its kind in VR today.
Why on Earth would you keep the gameplay totally intact when it's so terribly flawed?

It's difficult to recommend Payday 2 for Nintendo Switch. On one hand, it is the most content-complete version of Payday 2. On the other hand, it's still a five-year-old game that really hasn't aged that well and doesn't seem to have all the updates that other versions have received. One would hope this would be the most definitive version of Payday 2, but it appears that the team at Overkill still has some work to do to iron out the bugs.

It's a mesmerizing action-adventure game with a surprisingly deep story drenched in themes of friendship and sacrifice
Nothing is worse than rushing to save one pilgrim only to see another one inadvertently leap to their own doom.
With the proper people, equipment, and time to play and fully utilize Guilt Battle Arena, the game is relatively fun pioneering on a simplistic and straightforward idea. However, it is easy to see how simplicity can easily fall into mediocrity, especially when that's all it has going for it.
… always being in the action and not drowning in my own failure for too long was actually a good thing.
