recent: tears of the kingdom, or as i like to call it botw 1.2, its the same thing all over again just with one or two added gimicks, the open world is dead, npcs are boring and nintendo just got away with it like that

not so recent: i cant stand persona 5, joker and his entourage are annoying teenagers, the time management is a horrible gameplay addition and the artstyle is just a visual overstimulation

with that being said,~~ plz dont kill me~~

    I LOVE RPGs and open world games. Love the Fallouts (all of them except 76), elder scrolls, dragon age, old baldurs gates, etc. Basically every game that’s apparently indicative of liking the Witcher 3. But holy hell, I’ve played it 4x and can only get 10 hours or so into it before I have to turn it off. I have no idea why honestly, because every thing about it screams that I’ll love it.

      For me it was definitely the combat. I’m not sure why exactly but the movement and attacks feel “off”. I can stand only a few encounters and and then I’m out.

      For me its Bloodborne.

      Best game of all time, except for all the walking back to the bosses, vial system, framerate drops, shonky multiplayer.

      But damn its so good.

        Ugh, that framerate. I’m a huge FromSoft fan and Bloodborne is at the very bottom of my Soulslike tier list because there isn’t actually a way to play it that doesn’t completely suck.

      I had the same issue with every Witcher game… I had to start each of them a few times, to get totally hooked on it on the 3rd try usually, no idea why.
