Let me first say that this is one of my most beloved gaming franchises and I have been fan since the first game came out. So I finally tried Gears 5 to see if it's really "that bad" and I must say - it really is not. Yes, the main characters (Del and Kait) aren't the most interesting and I wish we could play as our old beloved characters from previous games, but that's about the only downside for me. I was pleasantly surprised that in the story there are plenty of throwbacks to older games, mainly Gears of War 2 and 3, that it extends the lore and answers some crucial questions like Locust origins for example. I also really like the semi-open world in Act 2 and 3 that actually allows you to explore and discover some cool locations/sidequests. Action itself is just excellent, just like in previous GoW games. Multiplayer part is a lots of fun, especially Horde and Escape mode since I prefer PvE. You can upgrade your class and unlock new things which is always welcome. Spend about 60h on these modes alone before I jumped into the campaign. Definitely a good game and a very decent sequel in my book. Solid ground for Gears of War 6. I recommend.

The game is just playable for graphics and adventure. It was boring at first for its repetitive gameplay from Gears 4 like juvies,swarms attacks, and there wasn't a single storyline I could follow properly. But thankfully, the good graphics and adventure in icy worlds and a Martian desert environment make the game playable. my rating 2.75/5

Honestly not sure why I held off playing this one for so long. Thoroughly enjoyed the game (have only played single player at the time of reviewing) and felt like Insane was a very fair challenge. The open world sections worked a lot better than expected. Will probably spend some more time with this one wrapping up some of the collectibles and other campaign related achievements before E-Day releases.

Having owned Gears 5 on XBOX1S in 2019, and repurchasing it on Steam a few years ago, this review is long overdue. Although this is my least favorite Gears campaign, the multiplayer more than makes up for it. Finally I can play Gears with buttery smooth high framerates, customized graphics settings, and with friends across all platforms. After not playing for a few years, It's great to see the player base is still going strong, and that a game of TDM, Execution, or KOTH can be found in seconds. Ranked game can take a while to match up though, particularly late at night, and certain crossplay aspects can be a bit glitchy, but this is a solid Gears of War, and will hold me over till E-Day come out. If you're a fan of Gears multiplayer, this is better than reloaded IMHO.

The whole point of me buying this here was to play it on Steam Deck. It run flawlessly. No frame drop, no tearing, no nothing.
