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'm with you on Persona 5. My favourite in the series is Persona 2. Plays like complete ass but some of the best writing I've seen in a videogame. So it balances out. Then Persona 3 came out and they changed direction with the games, and... Well, I guess it makes more money and being told you're the best is a lot more fun than the weirdness of early persona.

Weirdly enough, I could never get into Stardew Valley. Whenever I play it, the path to complete optimisation is just so annoyingly clear. Something ALWAYS needs to be done to be optimal. So I always feel like I'm not doing it right or I'm falling behind. My personality just does not work with Stardew Valley even if I really truly want it to.
