Soldat 2
It’s a good, fun game, but still lacks a fair bit of refinement.
Hit registration is absolutely horrendous at the moment. You throw a knife at someone, you can see it hits the mark, because it then stops and drops to the floor, but no damage is done.
Similar thing with sniper rifles. You see the bullet pass through the opponent and it does zero damage.
Grenades. Sometimes you hit a person with all 3 grenades and they still don’t die, but they throw just one back at you and poof, you’re dead.
Player balancing system is just silly. When you join a server with an even number of players, you become the poor soul that is going to be tossed back and forth between teams whenever the team you’re in exceeds the other team’s score by 2 (flag caps or bases occupied). You might get thrown into the opposing team just as they’re about to lose. Lovely.

I wouldn’t recommend buying this, even if it’s for nostalgia purposes.
The game is literally dead, whenever I attempt to play there’s noone online on any servers - I’ll join a game and play with bots for a while and occasionally 1 or 2 people may join but then leave after 10-15 minutes.
There’s no Oceanic community, that’s for sure. The only community is a few Russians and Germans that sometimes populate their server, but other than that - it’s essentially dead.
There’s also no effort to boost the player population, such as creating communities for specific regions, simple things such as in the Soldat 2 Discord you can create a rank specifically for their region so people can tag @Oceania or @Australia “let’s populate a server” - there’s none of that or anything close.

Royale Age: Battle of Kings
Wow! This game is really fun! If you are looking for a casual game that has multiple layers of strategy and that is fun to play then this game is an excellent pick up! It is imo easy to learn, and great if you only have 15 minutes for a play session. Definitely worth the 10 bucks. And to the people complaining about bots, one - that doesn’t make it a bad game and two - that just gives players like me an opportunity to learn the game inside and out. But it. Two thumbs wayyyy up!

Okay, first, I’ve something bad to say, but I hope this will not discourage you because this game really needs you, if you’re here because you thought this game is a great game, please, just take it, it’s really what it looks, if not better.
Now… this game is f*****g amazing, what we have here is one of that brilliant ideas that we fear the world will never see, why I say that? Because besides this game has this fantastic gameplay / Design / Strategy+Luck Synergy / Sound / etc… It has the biggest flaw of this video game era, it’s a small game, forged by a small group of people, and it’s paid, ok ok ok, it’s REALLY cheap, and I think the price is too low for this good game, but it’s a paid competitive game in a world of competitive free games, this game (I hope I’m wrong, I hope the devs have a plan) will die without see its full capacity.

Antistatic
This game needs more attention.
It’s the most Melee-like platform fighter out at the moment in a genre overran by developers too afraid to commit to the formula that made the genre so big competitively.
Most developers try to differentiate their games with weird, unsatisfying, shallow mechanics that end up souring the experience, but this game from my short time playing is more set on pure and solid gamefeel and exploring the genre from it’s roots, with unique movesets instead of directly ripping or tweaking already existing characters.

Very early in development, so it’s lacking in a lot of departments. That said, the core gameplay is tight and with some time most of the problems will be fixed and most missing features will be implemented. Also, the dev seems pretty engaged with the community and is very active, at least on discord, while posting constant updates about the development timeline. Overall, at it’s current state it’s a very ‘rough’ game with a good core that only shows signs of improving.

Street Fighter V
TL;DR Game was awful at launch, but has been really good for a couple years now. Most people that are complaining are either casuals that don’t know what they’re talking about, scrubs, or people that for some odd reason feel attacked when they see an advertisement or DLC char/stage/costume.
People don’t understand that these new versions and new characters requiring you to pay more money all over again is what Capcom has done from the very beginning. They’re actually being BETTER about it in SFV. In previous titles like SF2, Alpha, SF3, and SF4, when the new version of the game came out you had to BUY THE WHOLE GAME AGAIN to play the new characters and stages. You also COULDN’T PLAY THE OLD VERSION ANYMORE because everyone else had moved on to the newest version, which wasn’t just an expansion upon the old base game and was an entirely new physical title. For example, when Super SF4 came out, you HAD to spend $40 to buy SSF4 to keep playing because everyone stopped playing the vanilla version of SF4 overnight and that version of the game became vacant and useless to own. In SFV you can still play against the up-to-date community without paying for the newest DLC and not get left behind by the game and community. New characters and stages have never ever been free or cheap before in a Street Fighter game. To complain about this is just strange to long time SF players. Spending $120+ on the game by the end of it is just what we do because we like the game. SFV has given us the option to not have to do that now, although gaining in-game Fight Money is a slow grind. Viewing the Ads that the game has is a way to getting this Fight Money slightly faster. You can turn the Ads off if you don’t want to see them or gain the extra Fight Money.

Made it easier for new comers. Don’t like how they skipped out on better character animation with some of the dlc, as well as some iffy character models. Overall it turned out to be a solid street fighter title worthy of a place in the street fighter legacy.
This game really brings out the fundamentals of fighting games.

DRAGON BALL FighterZ
First Fighting game I’ve played. Very balanced at its current state, I hope it get a sequel or a big update to keep the game fresh,

If you’re into masochism and you like Dragon Ball then this game is for you.
Now jokes aside this game is really good, the artstyle is stunning, the music is amazing, the roster is big and pretty balanced… but the fighting system is a bit of a pain in the ass, especially for the new players. You need to constantly make new combos if you want to get better at this game, and spend thousands of hours on Arcade Mode and training to even have a chance of being semi-good and develop game sense.
Overall I recommend it to anyone who’s into that sort of thing.

A very good game, it has got everything you want in a game like this. It’s free, and if paying I could be able to play alone, it would be nice and a way to make me pay the people that made this game. All I can say is thank you, developers, I’d deffinetly pay to play a game like this with some more content. A coop version would be cool too. Imagine playing with your friends and killing bosses in a game like this.
Try this game, it’s free, you don’t loose anything. In my profile I haven’t played much, but I’ve played in my friend’s account and the game has 11 maps and everyone with its own different aspects. It has got some more power ups, the only problem is that you can’t change the buttons of the actions.

Street Fighter® IV
i do not recommend this game.
first of all i have to say that street fighter IV is probably the best fighting game you can play , i have
in my library few more fighting games such as:
injustice gods amond us
the king of fighters xiii
mortal kombat kollection
mortal kombat komplete edition
and street fighter iv got the best gameplay and fun.
however (and thats a big however) , i do not recomend to buy this game because of capcom money sucking
strategy.
first they release this game ,half year later they release an enhanced game which contain few more characters

Oh nostalgia. That was the first street fighter I ever played. I remember that I watched my cousins play without any interest and then one day I picked the arcade stick… Oh boy what a satisfaction was to kick ass and taunt with Bison. I like the character selection music and the narrator voice is (in my opinion) much better. I liked how you had to unlock characters without freaking DLC garbage, how you had to deal with your character weaknesses (cuz unbalance suff OP SAGAT I HATE YOU) overcome it and win. Liked how pist was your opponent when you beat it with Dan (which was pure and utter shait). Then AE and Ultra Came along and instead of updating the game without the new characters and let everybody play the same game (like SFV is doing) they forced us to buy the game again AE and then again with Ultra. I have Ultra on Xbox360 and on PC too. Left my Bison at B+ #320.

FutureGrind
Initial play-through of all major content in the game took about 4-5 hours, once I started to go for highscores on tracks, my playtime exceeded 40 hours lol
Though rather simple, it is a very polished game in all regards and pretty much nails everything it attempts to do.
+Great Visuals
+Good Soundtrack
+Solid Controls
+Difficult, but not unfair at any point time.
Overall, great game, if you like challenging platformer style games I would recommend this one for sure, especially if you enjoy leaderboard competition.

A really nice and addicting arcade game. It seems very simple at the start. You have a bike with two rotatable color coded wheels and you have to grind rails with the wheel of the corresponding color.
But, as the game progresses, new hazard are added to tracks to increase the challenge. Also, every few tracks you get new bikes that behave very differently from each other, so you have to adapt to multiple playstyles.
The main goal is to reach the end of the track by finding a perfect route. The arcade part comes in the score you get at the end of the track for flips, tricks and combos, and hunting for Diamond trophies can get really addicting. You also unlock 2 bonus missions per track after beating it, giving it some replay value.

What’s coming after Early Access?
Regular drops of new maps, modes, characters, and upgrades to keep things minty fresh.
What’s the setting/lore?
It’s the mid-2040s, and these days the main threat in the world is IN Equity Inc. They started as a venture capital firm investing in exotic technology like human genome editing and hyperintelligence augmentation. When they got bored of the umpteenth ethics investigation against them, they went full supervillain and declared their offshore research base to be a sovereign “corporate state” under the ~benevolent~ leadership of the Board of Directors. Hero Team was formed as an elite international force to keep them in check, and are first on the scene whenever IN Equity are attempting to steal a nuclear reactor or executing a hostile takeover of a small nation.
