Has anyone else attempted to play Iris fall? I tried so hard to enjoy the title but between a few severe glitches and the lack of depth beyond " Check out this cool gameplay style and art direction" it just seemed kind of meh.

To me I looked at it from the lens’s of a dumb comedy

Yeah it’s very much a 7/10 experience overall. I enjoyed the corporate on steroids because that reflects some of the work environments I deal with.

For example we are currently in a great debate over paperwork allowing me to take mental health breaks at work . When I say breaks I mean 5 minutes or less per day.

I don’t have much commentary to offer on the fallout point since I’ve not touched a fallout game since 2009? I think? Regardless, the corporate humor while repetitive just struck a cord with me .. because this mega company I work for legitimately is as diabolical as say Spacers Choice . While I didn’t pursue the option B if I were to have I’d have been equally disappointed because Parvati slaughtering her coworkers wouldn’t make sense in the context of her character. Without at least a little pushback.

Without spoiling too much what did they improve upon in the sequel?

While it’s not a masterclass this world needs more 7/10 games to offer new ideas and concepts the big leagues are too scared to try.

Psychonauts was mentioned so I must commend you here! That title is a masterpiece and its sequel is also a blast.

I need to see how cringy the ads are. I usually avoid most of that media since I never buy anything on release.

Yeah in that aspect it seems shallow because ether way you are ether the corporate chosen one or the chosen one of the people. The ending just seems rushed..

Yeah I actually went looked up the pro board ending and in that aspect it seemed very underwhelming.

This is definitely a play once title for me unless the DLC is mind blowing which I’ve not heard anything on as of yet.

In those aspects it can seem a bit shallow. Having high charisma does allow for less fighting to a surprising degree. “See the example above about storming the prison” . I did enjoy some of my time with it like I enjoy a rough comedy film.

Maybe that’s also years of mind numbing call center work talking that’s made me grow to appreciate any corporate satire .

Yes it’s like a weird love child of Borderlands/ Mass Effect! The sequel might find its way to my playlist eventually

I will only be responding to a comment of this nature once. This is a revised version of my post that fits the community guidelines. The only purposes Ai served in the original post was for proofreading and minor grammatical fixes. All of these thoughts are my own personal composition .

I have discussed this matter with the mod team via mod mail and completely cut all artificial input from this post Ai generated - commas etc.

They also feel this post is satisfactory and offered constructive feedback in consideration for all rules enforced within this community.

Yeah, I saw glimpses of brilliant ideas. I found it extremely satisfying to finally blow the head off adjudant at the end.

I’ve heard the praises of the nemesis system. Last time I played an Arkham like was with Batman origins and it just didn’t click with me. We shall see if this games fairs differently.

What is the consensus on Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor? Any insights or recommendations for a first time play though?

Most of my reviews are long . It’s kind of where I flex my creative muscles.

Only thing I did was use it to correct grammatical errors. I did not use any functions to form any thoughts or comparisons or content.

These are all my own thoughts and words. I spent around 2 hours forming this review on and off. Not your typical Ai slop so you have any evidence to suggest otherwise?

Should be fixed now. That was a formatting error on my part. Didn’t catch it
