I don’t know you, but people keep telling me that there are no great games this year.
I admit that there are no classics that define generations like Popstar, BadDog, or CD Projekt Red Dead Redemption 6. Does snow affect all public services in the UK?
Most importantly, it’s easy to forget that visiting the best places to play these games is harder than Kirby with laughter. Crypto miners are hoarding the best graphics cards, and the scalpers are hoarding more next-generation game consoles than Jeff Bezos has toilets in his mansion-even if there are not so many on the 14 PS5 and X series They are also hidden in the cabinet under the cabinet. stair.
However, when we encounter difficulties, we will still find some great games.
Among the crops that should be fallow, I think it shows a lot that I have managed to organize an eclectic list of exciting games, and missed Deathloop, Returnal, Ratchet and Clank: the three excellent and completely necessary main ones in Rift. The publisher version is separated.
Forgotten city
The Forgotten City is an OG Skyrim module that uses the power of Unreal Engine to transform it into a completely puzzling, time-warped detective story.
I missed a lot of downloading mods for Fallout 3, New Vegas, Oblivion, and Skyrim as a teenager, so it’s no wonder that this compact, endless, story-driven play hit me in the nostalgia feel.
Although the scope is as limited as your expectations for smaller independent projects, the network of intertwined stories needs to be unraveled in an elusive way, pulling you into adventure rather than feeling like you might find in some big budgets At a loss, open-a world role-playing game with a huge land area to explore.
The subtle way each task leads to the other pushes everything at a fascinating speed. This is one of the best games to learn as little as possible, so I deliberately avoid providing too much background information.
If you like a short, independent, and talkative game experience like I do, and you can ignore some graphics and character choices that truly reflect the spirit of the stupid Oblivion NPC, then the hours you spend digging into the secrets of the forgotten city are also Just as enjoyable as any game in 2021.
Killer 3
Like many people, I like to feel smart-but sometimes I need a little help.
I am a bit young for the killer games of the 00s, and the infinite opportunities of the sandbox are a bit lost in my unrefined game taste.
But now in Hitman 3, as the mission story mechanism is further honed, the sleek, satisfying and extremely clever assassination is cleverly highlighted in the environment, just like the target in the Tony Hawk killing game.
This is the perfect balance between expansive, detailed and diverse levels, surprising goals and opportunities, and appropriate improvisation space. The subsequent challenges are almost as interesting as the first time.
Fortunately, despite being abandoned in the current traditional Q1 release period, which is destined to be forgotten in the awards season, it seems that the latest killer has achieved more deserved success. But the iGamesNews elephant will never forget.
Resident Evil Village
A game can be a bit disappointing, but is it still one of the best games of the year?
After the real moment of going towards Jesus in the “Resident Evil 2 Remake”, I made up for the lost time with the shameful and terrible Resident Evil 7. My hopes are higher than entering the hell bar of Resident Evil Village at the beach party of Mr. X .
It is always a mistake to enter any game with great expectations, but I make my excitement better, and eagerly climb every corner to be impressed.
Thankfully, I was very impressed. But I can’t help being attracted by the small shortcomings here and there.
Werewolf biting your finger-although it looks a bit like your dad wiping a towel while swimming: damp and no socks-quite disgusting and scary, but it seems that there are only about three different models suitable for them.
Then clink in the trash can in your pocket to find the esoteric answers to any puzzles you have been solving for the past 20 minutes. This is not exactly a master class on road signs.
But I think a lot of disappointment comes down to Capcom now trying to catch lightning in the bottle three times, and the light is starting to become so slight. Yes, it’s cool to be chased by the iconic villain immediately, but we’ve seen Mommytrescu’s Hunter AI before-it’s not as surprisingly original as the third time.
The lesson here is: expect perfection and you will always be disappointed-even for beautiful things.
However, if you haven’t played “Resident Evil 2 Remake”, you can still enter the village fresh, I really envy you.
rise
If The Ascent were a movie, it would be released in 1988, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, directed by Paul Verhoeven, and banned in Australia for extreme violence.
Low-key is one of the best-looking games of this semester, and it definitely reflects the cyberpunk atmosphere that is so “popular” now. What’s amazing is that this relatively expansive RPG and the city full of side quests and collectibles are made by The core team has only 12 people.
Forza Horizon 5
Every few consoles, miracles happen.
Most of the time, racing games are seen as a niche in a niche-for some reason it is considered too technical to take time to learn, as if to solve when the brakes are not good enough to use a sword or time to activate an ability.
Perhaps when driving is something that many people do to some extent every day, this kind of fantasy is less attractive. But from time to time, mainstream racing games will reach the perfect sweet spot, providing accessibility, fascinating challenges and more interesting collection marathons, which really make players feel a headache.
Many people say: “I don’t play racing games.” But mentioning “Burnout Paradise” to these people, or mentioning “Need For Speed Underground 2” to older people, they will grumble like a Ferrari’s idling engine. Grumblingly told how they liked it.
Forza Horizon 5 has the potential to become a mainstream racing game for a new generation of players.
Adding the broadcast editor of “Bring Me Horizon” is one of the most interesting things I heard this year: “Everything is… messed up!!!”
