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~~

Maybe not quite the spirit of the question but: Endwalker killed FFXIV for me.

Played the game a ton from ARR to Shadowbringers, but can't bring myself to even log in any more. The house I've had for seven years will be demolished later this week and I don't even care.

I know people loved the story but I hated it. Job design, job balance and encounter design are in terrible states. Patches are taking longer. The new content they added for this expansion has been bland and uninteresting.

Endwalker also killed FFXIV for me, but for different reasons. I think I was about to get on par with the story, or maybe I was on par with the story and catching up on side content, when endwalker dropped.

Wasn’t able to log in for 3 days due to the insane queues, then other stuff happened and didn’t manage to log in for a week, forgot my rotations, which were also no longer the correct rotations, and also forgot what I was doing and what was happening story wise.

Tried to get back into it but simply dropped it after a couple of days instead.

First time I've heard this take. Both stories were close competition for best expansion for me.

I wanted to love FF14 and tried it after shadowlands in WoW. But I felt like the entire game was terribly dull. The story felt pretty generic to me, and the cutscenes were sooooo slow (long pauses and generic emotes between lines drives me nuts). But the thing I disliked the most was how samey all the dungeons felt.

I played a WHM for the campaign up until SGE came out and actually enjoyed the way that class played, but the world just felt kinda flat to me.

@Harmageddon WHM is notoriously slow and plodding early levels and the A Real Reborn story is a realllllllllly slow burn that drags too long in places.
