Show me the champion of light. This game never fails to impress as I progress. This song beats the one in the 1st for sure :D

Champion of blight actually won? Oh no, here comes the Champion of the Year edition with expansions bundled in lol.

As much as I dislike turn-based combat, I'd personally have picked BG3 over AW2, but what do I know 🤷‍♂️:LOL:

Speaking of which, here are some bugs I encountered during my playthrough (potentially NSFW 🤷‍♂️):

But what of the individual who spent $22.49 - $31.49 (and considers himself lucky for doing so) on a game where:

- investigation is merely a vehicle to drive the narrative forward, and there's no real deduction on the player's part
- combat is merely flashing a torch and then finishing enemies off with a laughably limited arsenal of weapons
- the player needs to sit through hours of integrated FMV

Correct me if any of the above is factually incorrect :LOL: 🤜
- Combat encounters themselves get repetitive fast, with little enemy or weapon variety (so far)
- Narrow spaces don't work well for combat. Case in point: the first boss fight, where the camera can get really awkward at times.
- Excessively harsh smudge filter when low on health.
- Melee feels clunky.
- So many FMVs.

Just started this game last night. I have just completed the first chapter and holly hellllll. Remedy has fuckin nailed the atmosphere and sound design of this game. It is very rare for a game to intrigue you this much into it within the opening moments of it. I think the original TLOU did that and now AW2 has did that for me. Good stuff.

    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
