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 wouldn’t say I hate Witcher 3 but it didn’t engage me at all because of the “everything sucks” aura it gives. There’s nothing really nice to look forward to or that makes the fight against the Big Bad worth it. However, now that I’m writing this, maybe that was intended and I should get back to the game with the mentality of a jaded mercenary only doing it for money, as I believe the Witchers are supposed to be.

      As a fan I think that sounds like a good way to view it. That said, I found surprising moments of beauty all the time, maybe because they stand out more?
