Need for Speed Unbound (2022)

most mechanics are "fun" breaking

This game is a straight out downgrade from NFS Heat or NFS 2015, you will have way less fun.

Positives:

• styling, very cool, looks just like spider man miles morales
• the story is not definitly mid, but its not bad and the jokes are also cool

• the week system is VERY BAD, probably the what spoiled the game for many people and myself, its just a downgrade on the day night system from NFS Heat
• on the PC, the Sony Dualsense do not work properly, so you have to add the EADesktop to steam, so STEAM handles the controller correctly and you can finaly play the game without problems
• also, sometimes even the keyboard would get bugged out
• the police is a nuisance, sometimes the police would even camp out on important events or safehouses, so I could not enter them
• on the multiplayer, you have to create a new save, so you dont have money parity between singleplayer and multiplayer, it not good.

• the money balacing is pretty bad, on the start of the game you cant test new builds or anything
• the class system is poorly thought out, it basically separates classes on random numbers, instead of each 100 number or something (like Forza)
• the performance tunning is very bad because of the class system, because when testing your car, you have to actualy buy everything instead of putting something in a cart and later buying everything.

Star Wars: Visions: Aau's Song (2023)

The cutest and most innovative animation till now

I wasn't really looking foward to watching this episode, as the previous visions season 2 episodes were lacking A LOT on the animation departament.

But oh my, oh my, the animation and soundtrack on this episode ARE PERFECT. I've never seem this kinda of animation, all characters are fluffly like a stuffed animal, and the setting they are on it's really interesting, like a village on really high mountains.

The story it's nothing to write home about, as most star wars visions episodes, it follows the same pattern of "someone discovering the force", but still, the animation was so surprisenly good that I think it deserves a 10.
