Ashes of the Singularity
As a Command & Conquer Red Alert, Dune, Starcraft and Homeworld fan I was very excited when this was announced. The final product however is a Huge disappointment. Seriously this is more like a tech demo not a game, it doesn't have a great story less than average in fact that's "just" one problem, but it's like an empty husk with no purpose at all. The gameplay and the level design is boring too. The ten-years-old Supreme Commander still is better in every aspect of gameplay.
Ashes of the Singularity's graphics looked promising, but once you observe in realtime on your computer you see it's not that great... This is the biggest waste of money I have spent on a game in years.
No Man's Sky
This game is absolutely massive, and has a decent idea, unfortunately that's all that it has going for it. This game has quintillion planets randomly generated in the vastness of space. However having that huge amount of planets to explore is undoubtedly hard and useless. I got bored at the first planet I spawned on. It's very repetitive, the games crafting system is confusing, and this game will leave you with nothing to do after just a few hours into it. The game is boring and There is no story or direction to really follow, other than "go to the center of the galaxy"
For Honor
I got this game for free from Ubisoft. The single-player story campaign is very simple and engaging. and to be Honest This Game is amazing however it's definitely not for everyone. I wouldn't say this game is like dark souls, but if you get angry at that game, you'll probably get mad while playing For Honor. There's a steep learning curve but once you get it, you'll be executing Knights, Vikings, and Samurai with ease.
Assassin's Creed Chronicles Russia
While Assassin's Creed Chronicles Russia isn't quite up there with the best adventures in the series. And this is the hardest game I have ever played. Too many cheap deaths ruin the experience. The last two sequences are nearly impossible. But Assassin's Creed Chronicles Russia finally gives the Chronicles series a good story.
The main protagonist Nikolai is kind of a boring guy, but the secondary playable character Anastasia is quite likable and keeps things compelling by adding a little family tragedy to the mix. The plot capitalizes on the events of the previous two games well, really showing off how this has all been one continuous narrative as opposed to three disconnected side-stories in the overall Assassin's Creed canon, and it's nice to see what becomes of that Precursor box.
