Playing ELEX. Not sure how to rate it. Probably 7.8/10 with reservations.
It's quite immersive. Like on negative comment that ELEX receives is that it has too much dialogue. I find that not the case. There's enough to draw the player into the world. .. Exploration is rewarding.
One negative I have with it, is when you set off running, your first four steps are walking pace. Total pain in the neck at all times, including combat.
I like the game though. It is a Punkbuster game throughout, in that it takes ages to get going with combat. Combat is best avoided for quite a long time. Excluding all other aspects, the pacing of the game is identical to the Risen series.
Lastly, ELEX can be a long game. I am doing all the side quests and a lot of exploration. Have played for almost ninety hours, and there is a long way to go yet.

Halo 4 from The Master Chief Collection. 8.2/10 easily. It might not be be on par with modern titles in terms of graphics and mechanics. However I feel fully back in the Halo world I knew from Halo 1 and 2. Master Chief and Cortana.
