Hollow Knight really hits that upper corner of being ambitious as hell with a huge map and scope, but being polished as hell too. And then you can have New Vegas, which is amazing in its depth and complexity but, uh, absolutely has some issues. You can have a game like Bejeweled which isn't super ambitious but can be a perfect, bug-free, no-bs experience. I've often felt like games really should be reviewed on the binary axis of ambition and polish. Speaking of which the writing is very good at show-don't-tell and trusting the player to be smart enough to understand what's going on. You wouldn't think that would matter for hand-drawn cell-shaded game, but frame drops are really noticeable in a platformer where you need smooth motion.Īlmost all the bosses are fun to fight, rewarding a fast, aggressive play-style.Īnd they have no microtransaction bullshit. They have few animated cutscenes, but the cutscenes are quality with a lot of character. Nothing gets too annoying to listen to even after you've been in the same area for hours. In fact I'd say better-than-AAA polish.Ī lot of indie (and even AAA) games cheap out on the music, but Hollow Knight has some of the best music scored for a game, with very recognizable themes and leitmotifs. It's an indie game but it has AAA polish. /r/GamePhysics - Clips of game physics shining and glitchingĭesign based on /r/FlatBlue created by /u/creesch./r/gaming4gamers - middle ground between purely-for-fun and more serious subreddits./r/GamingLeaksAndRumours - Leaks and Rumors.Posting unmarked spoilers will result in removal and warning, and posting spoilers with malicious intent will result in a ban.
