Computer RPG Games
Community for CRPG games and other RPG gaming discussions. Witcher, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Baldurs Gate as well as indie RPGs (Underrail, Avernum, Space Wreck etc.). Focus is on CRPGs, but discussion around JPRGs, ARPGs and hybrid games with RPG components is also welcome.
Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.
Memes are not banned, but the overwhelming focus is on discussions, releases and articles. Try and post memes (on an occasional basis) that would make people who don't like memes admit "OK! That was a good one!".

My experience with it has been that it's a simulation of a story.
I mean I enjoy it quite a lot because of the story, playing as a young James Bond. That part is rather well done, with great voice acting and mocap etc.
The gameplay is something to be questioned though. After a while the combat is very samey and I'm kind of gliding through those parts. It's still enjoyable to me, just more for the story elements and how well those are executed. I would say it's a good story and execution of it,, but purely from a gaming stand point: I wouldn't say it's even on my top 10.
Although I'm unsure how relevant this is, since I am also playing Hellblade 2 and absolutely love it as both a story and game, and it looks insanely beautiful.
Microsoft also shut their studio down, not long after they announced a new Hellblade...
So not entirely sure what criteria they're using.
stares at Hellblade sitting in my library
I'll get there eventually
The first one is more psychedelic with trippy visuals, focusing on the mental aspect of psychosis a lot more, however the second Hellblade is more combat focused with a much more fleshed out story, characters, etc.
Both good but a great sequel imho.
