Jedi Fallen Order, finished and immediately deleted from my ps4 forever.
what a fucking load of shite. even after playing my way through the whole game I feel cheated for having spent £40 on it because I don't think there was a minute of it where I was actually having fun. I tried to persevere... I learned blocking,parrying, dodging and all that timing nonsense, even though it is about as tightly pulled together as a jumper knit by your nan after 2 bottles of sherry.
I fed myself into the meat grinder of encounters and bosses and traipsed back and forth from checkpoint to boss only to get killed in some stupid endless unstoppable combo because you can't heal without stopping dead still and definitely not when they're hitting you with things. I waited minutes to respawn and get back only to die quicker than it took me to return to the spot.
I did all the fucking stupid inane boring puzzles, pull this, push that, jump here, I re-did them again when the basic fucking movement mechanics didn't work properly and I ended up launching myself into the endless void instead of jumping to the next section or just get pushed off a ledge while sliding down the most pointless agility gameplay sections you could dream up. I swam around in the boring underwater bits with nothing of any interest to look at and some of the worst swimming controls since tmnt on the NES. I did all that and worked my arse off just to get to the end and was faced with such a bullshit boss fight after 10 goes I realised I was 1000000% done with it and stuck it on story mode and cheesed my way to the finish and I dont care one fucking bit.
As I said to a friend who also hates it, this is brexit the game, I can't figure out why what is seemingly just a collection of some of the worst decisions ever made is so well liked by the general populous.
Dude. With this and your board game reviews, you should think about publishing your own reviews somewhere. Entertaining, clear, concise and insightful - they are always a good read.
