It's as if TaleWorlds themselves made this. Such a well made mod.

Dear Esther

Game review

Dear Esther surprised me. When I first heard news of it and what it was about, I partialy knew what to expect. Looking at some of the screenshots I could see that it had amazing visuals and a very somber atmosphere, which is what I like. To some people, Dear Esther isn't a normal game, but more like an experience. Rather than having an objective or some kind of enemy to defeat, Dear Esther tells a story as you walk through the game, and that's it.

Dear Esther has a deep feeling of sorrow and regret. The melancholy story and gloomy atmosphere go along perfectly with each other. It starts off with the character looking for answers, looking for way to be with what he once lost. As the story progresses, he talks of people from his past, jumping from one story to the others. There's a great amount of abiguity, forcing you to try and piece together the story yourself, but that's part of what gives this game it's charm.

For me, Dear Esther truely is a unique game, a real masterpiece. Dear Esther surprised me because I didn't expect such an amazing and beautiful experience to come with it. Definitely one of, and maybe even my favorite game of all time.

The Seed

Mod review

This is a very good mod. A lot longer than I expected it to be too, which is a plus. I also like the two different ways you can choose to go. This mod does a good job in using its dark, creepy, and dreadful atmosphere to scare you, instead of relying on jump scares. There are quite a bit of spelling and grammar errors though that need to be fixed, but that's not really a big deal. Definitely give this mod a try.

Mount & Blade

Game review

A great game. Has a good mix of strategy, roleplay, and a little simulation.
