    My roommate and I passed the controller back and forth every level, no fighting over turns like we used to with GTA V sessions.

    The camera holds up well in tight corridors but gets a bit lost during the bigger open areas, small thing but noticeable.

    moi c'est pareil que pour les niveaux, mon neveu refait toujours les mêmes stages juste pour essayer une autre capacité

    La caméra ça me fait penser à nos sessions du dimanche (bien avant les couches et le rythme de bébé) où mon frère gueulait à chaque virage raté.

    cierto, aunque se nota poco

    Honestly at this point I've stopped caring where it lands against One Finger Death Punch, I just remember it got me through a rough month without asking much of me.

    What makes it stand out for me, or rather what makes it work at all, is how the abilities carry the exploration instead of just combat, so every stage feels worth a second pass.

    Chez nous c'était le mercredi, et clairement les capacités portaient plus le truc que la baston elle-même.

    I picked it up after a rough move, just wanted something that didn't demand much, and ended up replaying stages way more than I expected, does the second pass ever get old for you?

    NeonRider

    Cierto, pero no siempre.

    I played it during a really slow week off work. Nothing special happened, I just remember eating cereal at odd hours and clearing stages between naps. Not a dramatic story, just a calm one.

    Igual, unas vacaciones tranquilas y este juego de fondo, cereal incluido.

    ChaddOwl

    Cereal and naps sounds about right for how low-key this one plays compared to the games it keeps getting matched against in these duels.
