You must not miss: The best games of 2021 according to Ladislav Novák

This year was not the strongest year for players.Once again we have seen some delays, but mainly miserable autumn full of disappointment and unfulfilled game expectations.Yet there are a lot of titles that pleasantly surprised.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart

So in this case, there is nothing to do about. Nový Ratchet & Clank se stal technologickým benchmarkem nové generace konzolí.Developers in this case illustrate that the game can look great, work smoothly and still play great.

Although the genre itself does not have to fit everyone, the truth remains that finding some more distinctive blob on beauty will give quite a lot of work.This is a demonstration of the technological possibilities of the PS5, and we are only in its bud.It is certain that the borders will be moved many times.

If we put the graphics and technical aspects of the game, we must also appreciate the gameplay itself.This is as special, dynamic and will not let the player exhale for a moment.Individual scenes alternate quickly, you are here for a while, in a moment in another dimension.Everything looks very natural and above all smoothly.The gameplay complements the fun story and a hilarious form of narration.I think you all understand each other very well how admirable work developers from the Insomniac Games studio have taken away.They gave rise to one of the best ps5 games.For now…

Resident Evil: Village

Maybe it will be my blindness and affection to the series, but Resident Evil: Village I consider the best horror game of 2021.On the other hand, this year was not the strongest for this genre, both in the number and of course in terms of quality.

Nový RE rozhodně nezklamal

Capcom developers, however, have successfully followed the previous episodes of the series and brought a mix of the best that Modern Resident Evil has so far offered.Great horror atmosphere, engaging, though somewhat over -combined story, but above all a great balanced gameplay in a partially open world, which is not quite typical of this legend.

Village is simply an excellent successor to the Seven.It is less horror and more action, on the other hand it is more spectacular and offers more options.In addition, it takes place in the backdrop of a similar fourth episode, which in itself is a great attraction.It is quite an unforgettable experience that honors the elements of the whole series.

Psychonauts 2

We look back back that this year's game season was much weaker than the previous ones.The reasons are known to everyone and certainly not surprise anyone.Thanks to this fact, games that would remain unnoticed in other circumstances came into our selections thanks to this fact.And this is the example of the second episode of Hopsačka Psychonauts.

Jedno z nečekaných překvapení právě končící sezony

This is a continuation of the iconic number one that has fully fulfilled the ideas of modern action bouncy adventure.The developers did not avoid some unnecessary fouls, but in the end they prevail rather positive feelings.At the core of the game stands a meaningful story full of various allusions and comic situations, a beautiful and varied world with a constantly alternating environment, and above all a relaxed relaxing gameplay, which has some flies, especially within the dueling system, yet it can be evaluated positively.

Psychonauts 2: The iconic fool is backReview

The game would certainly suit Czech localization, because the story line is slightly dense in the genre.Of course, the gameplay itself has no significant impact, but many players will remain hidden a large number of jokes, allusions, ambiguities and conspiracy theories.Although this bouncy adventure at first glance looks childish, don't be mistaken.This is a full -fledged and really fun game that confirms that the action jumping genre still has a lot to offer.

The Medium

The Medium was definitely not a perfect game.However, she left a very strong impression, even half a year after the release.Polish developers Blober Team have shown in a slightly different light than we were used to from classics like Layers of Fear or Cyberpunk Observer.Other colors, other layers, new emotions and a new view of the horror narrative is The Medium set in two worlds.

Duální světy zaujaly

It is a strong story and slowly flowing adventure that emphasizes the puzzles and narration of the story.Can greatly build a worrying atmosphere, but the feelings of fear cannot be talked about.It is more of a psychological thriller full of deep emotions and memories.

The Medium: Travel between worldsReview

The title offers classic adventure gameplay from the perspective of a third person with a number of interesting elements that spices relatively tightened narrative.True, the story could not be completely cited in several points and the potential of dual reality could also be squeezed a little more.Even so, we have seen an engaging experience with a really dense atmosphere.And Game Pass subscriptions even without additional fees.

Forza Horizon 5

Well it wouldn't be me if I didn't include any racing game in any selection.I admit that I prefer circuit racing, but I will never despise a quality arkádělníl with.The Forza Horizon series has always been an imaginary peak in this genre, and this time it is definitely not different.The slowly exhausting series will not be amazed as years ago, even the fifth episode offers truly entertaining racing, and especially a ton of content.

Výprava do Mexika je přesně taková, jakou jsme si jí představovali

In total, we can say that there was not much more significant news.The question, however, is whether it will surprise someone and most importantly if someone longed.Forza Horizon is and has always been about arcade racing in the attractive corners of the world.Of course, there must be no wonderful graphic design and traditionally high -quality audio.To do this, add a stupid story, hundreds of cars in a variety of categories, constantly new challenges/events, massive, although chaotic multiplayer and we have a promised blockbuster.

Review of Forza Horizon 5.Bienvenido and México

Someone may already get tired of this developer's approach and despise the recycling of material.But she is this recycling so tasty and juicy.In addition, Mexico is one of the most interesting landscapes where the Forza Horizon Festival has ever visited.You just won't get bored on this trip, believe it.And as is customary, Xbox Game Pass subscription owners have the game of free of charge within the service.

Word

Those titles that are worth trying but of course there was much more.We should not forget the co -operative IT Tames Two, the heroic event Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, Roguelike PS5 exclusivity Returnal or time loop Deathloop.Everything is about preferences and everyone likes something different, but we all acknowledge that in the overall ranking the year 2021 was barely average.It is especially the poorer in the first half of the year and especially the hesitation of giants such as Call of Duty or Battlefield.

Friends, readers, players and players, let's stay positively tuned and believe that the year 2022 will be a lot more cheerful.And not only in terms of game products, but somehow overall.
