Had enough of video game reviews that just don't cut it? Tired of review scores that are less than meaningless? Me too. I'm Cosmic, a video game critic and this here channel is The Cosmic Engine. I'm a critic devoted to informative, equitable and entertaining critique for the benefit of the consumer (Thats You!). I provide weekly content which includes PC game reviews, editorials and a series taking a critical look at early access games.
I grew tired of reviews that were not providing the right type of information. Reviews that didn't help consumers, Reviews that were simply 'here's what happened when I played'. Video games are a unique medium and as such requires unique critique. Video games invoke the subjective by having the player become emotionally involved with the game. Thus by their very nature require both objective and subjective to be included in their criticisms. Ultimately I don't think consumers want totally objective reviews, they just want informative and honest ones.

so you want to spam strongest spells or abilities and hate long cooldowns? a dnd game with no resting mechanics must have long cooldowns to balance things out... also why do u want crazy deep customization from game you are going to play from almost top-down view? and such other krappy whinings.
looks like a damn mobile game
Get a pop filter
looks like indie amateur night. These devs need to spend more time learning then selling.
My quickest run through Styx Shards of Darkness new game in Master Mode for all missions for gold time achievement, no exploits, no invisibility, no alerts, no kills, and all shards. ua-cam.com/play/PLxNApnOdZuk4HW9KepNRIODcXVSryQZsN.html
Good review! I've been interested in this game for some time, and it's pretty cheap on PS store right now. I will most likely give it a chance.
I don’t think it’s fair to criticize the grid-based movement in Might and Magic X Legacy. The game is obviously trying to evoke nostalgia and gameplay from a simpler time. It's not trying to be Skyrim or whatever, nor is it trying to evolve Might and Magic from 8 and 9. This is definitely a throwback release. I think if you’re going to review games, you should take them on their own terms. At least be charitable enough to acknowledge this is what the developers were going for and why they made these decisions. You don’t have to like them, but, frankly, something like this is not good or bad as it’s very much up to personal taste. I played Might and Magic 3 through 8 as a kid, and grid-based movement is totally fine. I also really enjoyed the Etrian Odyssey games as well, and they didn’t get points knocked off for grid-based movement either. Take games on their own terms.
Awesome video!✊💯
It's garbage.
I just picked this game up on a steam sale. Ive been a life long Warhammer fan and I am JUST now hearing about this game. It looks like a blast. Simple load in and play the game setup and thats great to me.
This game on the PSN tricked me! I thought it was a Sam and Max style Point and Click game! Beat Cop hurts my brain! I love puzzle games. I am a HUGE Professor Layton fan! And enjoy the challenging puzzles in those games! But the PSN's description for BC made be think it was a Sam and Max point and Click!
i brought this at $0.14 and i liked it. strangely enough, the ps4 version interface looks absolutely nothing like this
The horrible and unneccessarily over-the-top racism is jarring in this game, and the writing is sub-par at best: soulless and sophomoric wit won't substitute for substance.
shame what happened to this game..
and the gaming industry is still as volatile as ever even 7 years after. A timely incident happening as of late is the riot layoffs in which the employees also didnt knew they were being let go. Very unfortunate to hear for these studios and creative people losing stability in their lives. Thats the industry for ya
Mordheim is still a great game as of 2024. It has some minor issues, but it's gameplay cycle is very satisfying. The AI can be deadly, the procedurally generated maps are constantly changing so the similar missions never feel the same, and the RPG element is pretty deep once you are further in. The DLC adding two more factions and extra units helps with variety too. Incredibly underrated turn based game and incredibly underrated Warhammer game.
how do i download?
you need a PC get rid of your gross controller low iq baby choice
Is there a game award for most overtly racist game ever? Cuz this might win without much competition.
you really love the word "essentially" don't you?
it looks the very same as stellaris. which is better?
is this spacehulk clone
Would you recommend this over Remnants?
It would've been nice if you provided gameplay/visual examples of the aspects of the game you are speaking of but overall, good review sir. ^^
Old review but this is nothing like Freelancer which was so much more fun. Cheers.
Dynasty warriors don't have ip Rights to most of their characters. Their characters are based off of Chinese Legends and folklore
truly enjoyed this game when i got it, but it was my introduction to games like this and after advancing my game library, i can’t go back to it lol
This is the best review I've seen of the game, amazing work. Cheers!
It is pronounced BLACK. GUARDS. 2. Not bLaGuRtz 2.
I’m loving this game - singleplayer is quite tactically deep and challenging…
Is there any more games like this? Singleplayer. I love how you can seperate your squad allowing for deeper tactics like bounding…. Wish Aliens Descent was like this.
Кадия стоит!!!
Why do you want all games to have longevity? So someone makes it a multiplayer game and suddenly you believe it needs to be the never ending game?
I wanna be a game developer and I’m gonna make a game called “Clustertruck”. Oh yeah, that sounds good. Should it have good controls? NO!
Love how you blame the sluggish controls on the controller, when there are tons of Souls-likes on console/controller and actually the entire genre started on and is dominated on controllers/consoles.
Compared to tyranny playing this is like chewing on gravel, do not recommend if you like having teeth.

I just bought this game and looking forward to it...nice video bro
easily the worst game i have ever played
The controls are DISGUSTING
Here in 2023..this game holds up incredibly well.. really good review
i actually love grid based movement
Did you stop making videos
Awesome review! Saw it on sale for 1.50€ but wasn’t sure if I’d actually like it. This review showed me that it’s a game I’ll definitely enjoy playing on my down time.
Is it a remake or remaster of the original Star point Gemini? Or is it a different game?
"demon jokes about doing bad thing to a girl" and what exactly have you expected? demons ARE evil by definition.
Bro is being edgy on his review. The demon jokes were a nice touch. In my book they better be Unhinged and dark
I love the video
I don't know how i Miss games like this
hope u are doing fine.
Well interesting review one thing that was left out was the fact you can put in your own music. Myself I threw in some Alice Cooper and some heavy metal and some rockabilly music folders. The end result space got a lot more exciting pretty fast at least for me. Heard some country tunes I had heard in years and then had some heavy metal blare as I tore through a few enemy fleets. Someday if I keep grinding on the game long enough maybe I'll get one of those dreadnoughts. My only complaint about the game is it can get it repaired oven some sections in the side missions don't really add much. We never really get to make or know much about our respective Captain except we gave them a name. Also while you can hire mercenary fighter pilot you don't really have any crew. It's always made me wonder if you're the only living person on the vessel and the rest is just automated. I personally give this game 3 out of 5 stars. Despite limitations shortcomings and mistakes I do believe the game does get things right and when it does there usually exceptionally well done. Most of the shortcomings I feel or story-wise and in the sense that we never get to really know much about the universe setting or characters except for a little short vertical slice. So maybe that's only because I'm around halfway into the story campaign and I don't feel like progressing further until I get better ship. Until you get level 5 or level 6 gear along the game can turn into a heavy slugging match where you're going to lose pretty easily unless you run and even that becomes a challenge.
