Damn good game, once you get through the arduous process of understanding everything in the UI. You can just as easily min-max and conquer the entirety of Europe as you can roleplay your individual characters and set in-character goals for each of your reigns. The amount of necessary DLC holds this game back from being exceptional, however. If you were an 'early adopter' of the game and bought the DLC at the pace in which it was released, it might not seem like a lot, but to a new player? That's a couple hundred dollars to fully experience the wonder of Crusader Kings 2.
UPDATE: I don't know much about the subscription thing they're doing, but from my understanding, it alleviates the price problem? In any case, I'm bumping it up to a 9.

I've been having an absolute blast playing Pokemon Sword. So far, the difficulty is a little bit lower than Ultra Moon , which I do not consider to be a dealbreaker. As I've grown up, the amount of time I can invest grinding a Pokemon team has gone way, way down... I don't have the time I had back in 1998 during Summer Break when Pokemon Red first released!
I feel like my time is respected in Sword and Shield; doing raids can get XP candies that allow you to juice up your team faster than mindless grinding, as well as providing Technical Records, single use "vintage" Technical Machines from the pre-reusable days.
The Britain-inspired region is full of new critters to catch and the multiplayer Wild Regions give a fresh world exploration experience that I find fascinating. Going back to gyms from the island challenges feels like a step back in innovation but the game is still fun and challenging enough to feel satisfying at the end. The story is lacking, however, with the adults spending the whole game telling you to avoid getting mixed up in adult matters, i.e. the story... like they've never played a Pokemon game before!

This is, without a single doubt, one of the best games that I've played in my entire life, and I can't even explain why. It's different for each person, that's what makes it so special
