Ball x Pit is fantastic, all the way down to the fake CRT filter it subtly uses over its chunky graphics. It’s a masterful game, feeling as if it had a vision and executed on it perfectly. It also manages to ensure to not break a fundamental rule of the rogue-like genre, in that no run feels wasted. Not once during the game’s most manic failures or disaster runs did I feel as if my time was being wasted in any capacity. I didn’t get many resources or gold, but I hit retry and was back in the game in about 30 seconds. That next run saw me beat the level’s boss. I felt invincible. Ball x Pit is so good.

Keeper se hisse sans efforts dans comme l'une des directions artistiques les plus intéressantes de l'année. On salue le travail de Double Fine pour nous proposer quelque chose de visuellement captivant et sublime, mais aussi pour sa narration aussi fine qu'efficace et sa capacité à humaniser un phare. Si l'on se doit de garder les surprises qui attendent le phare pour nous, et que ces twists renouvellent agréablement la proposition, on ne peut pas s'empêcher de ressentir une pointe de déception pour la simplicité du projet en termes de difficulté du jeu.

Double Fine has done it again with Keeper, one of my highest rated video games of the year. Keeper will keep you guessing the entire time and in the best way possible, with outstanding visuals and an engrossing story that keeps you engaged without ever uttering a word.

A surreal painting come to life, Keeper is a stunning puzzle game that carefully balances its moreish mechanics with a heartfelt story. Its levels are teeming with life to interact with and interesting objects to ogle, with each scene framed by a percussive driving score. The leading duo might not speak. But, well-executed animations and a soundboard of affecting chirps and creaks imbue them with a spirit that grows on you fast. Adorable in premise, Keeper is a psychedelic exploration of life packed into a brief runtime that’s well worth experiencing at least once in your lifetime.

Would I recommend giving it a go? For the art style alone, I probably would, yes. It's an absolutely gorgeous game, and there were moments that I genuinely had a smile on my face. It was a shame that there were other moments when I literally sighed and said, "I've had enough now," although this may not be the same for everybody.

Keeper is pure Double Fine brilliance. They don’t just convince you to care about a lighthouse, but their bird companion, too. While questions aren’t really answered, that ultimately doesn’t matter.

Si Pixar faisait un jeu vidéo, nul doute qu’il s’appellerait Keeper. En donnant littéralement vie à un phare, sans lui donner la parole, Double Fine Production accouche d’une aventure bienveillante et douce. L’expérience se révèle plus contemplative que ludique, mais on prend beaucoup de plaisir à admirer ses décors prodigieux, et prenant vie quand on les illumine. Keeper est un OVNI, en raison de sa proposition alambiquée, mais il fait du bien entre deux productions moins apaisantes pour l’esprit. Double Fine Production sort même de sa zone de confort, avec une narration qui se passe de dialogues. Si vous avez envie de vous évader le temps de quelques heures, vous savez à quoi jouer.

Keeper es original, tiene una buena factura técnica y plantea una narrativa orgánica estimulante. El problema es que venir de Double Fine no evita que tenga que competir con tantos otros indies de prestigio. Está claro que es un proyecto muy personal, pero precisamente esa condición puede hacer que pase desapercibido.

Estoy muy contento con el viaje que propone Keeper. Es el típico juego del que no sabes muy bien que esperar y acaba enamorándote. Durante las cerca de 5-6 horas que dura, lo nuevo de Double Fine siempre encuentra el modo de sacarte una sonrisa y deslumbrarte con sus gráficos, haciendo que valga la pena cada minuto de esta experiencia. Sin duda, uno de los juegos más recomendables para despedir el año.

Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 is no classic, that's for sure. The game's side content is mediocre at best, and its technical optimization is among the worst seen recently. That said, the setting's atmosphere is intact, the combat is fun, and the main story is well-crafted. I recommend it to fans, but only at a lower price than the launch one.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 è un ottimo gioco dal punto di vista narrativo, contornato da altri sistemi di qualità altalenante, alcuni giustificati dalla ricerca di coerenza con lo scenario, altri più frutto dei problemi produttivi avuti in fase di sviluppo. Complessivamente, è migliore di quanto ci aspettassimo e si è rivelato un'esperienza appassionante e profonda, sicuramente degna del primo Bloodlines per come interpreta il mondo vampirico. Sappiate però che si gioca di ruolo più nei dialoghi che nel resto dell'esperienza e che chi cerca qualcosa in cui il combattimento sia la parte più curata, ha sbagliato titolo.

In un panorama dominato spesso da produzioni sicure e prive di rischi, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 è un gioco coraggioso, anche nei suoi fallimenti. The Chinese Room ha realizzato un’opera ambiziosa, forse troppo per le proprie forze, ma capace di lasciare un segno. Non è il seguito che molti sognavano, ma è quello che, forse, questo mondo oscuro meritava: un titolo imperfetto, ma intriso di personalità e visione. Seattle, con le sue ombre e i suoi segreti, rimarrà a lungo nella mente di chi deciderà di addentrarsi nei suoi vicoli. E quando, a notte fonda, sentirete la voce di Fabien sussurrare nella vostra testa, capirete che Bloodlines 2 forse è riuscito nell'intento.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 is a shambles. Its best qualities are always short-lived, buried deep beneath the frustrations of non-existent RPG elements, extreme padding, and diabolical technical issues. Beyond the promise of its opening hours, this is a tragic misfire of a game.

Étant donné les circonstances, Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines 2 s'en sort plutôt bien. Les limitations techniques et son passif chargé font qu'il est loin d'atteindre son plein potentiel et de réaliser toutes ses ambitions, surtout au niveau de l'open world. Mais c'est tout de même un bon jeu narratif, avec une histoire et des personnages très bien écrits, que nous avons pris plaisir à découvrir. Le gameplay simple mais efficace et il accompagne bien l'histoire, aux côtés d'une réalisation est très correcte.
