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 could never get into The Witcher 3. I recognize that it's purely a subjective thing, but it honestly feels like they handcrafted that game sitting there going "Well what would Action Bastard REALLY hate mechanically?"

Just absolutely nothing clicked for me aside from bits of the story, and even that wasn't really holding my attention all that well since I've already had a lot of exposure to Eastern European mythology and folklore and just don't really care about any of the main characters.

That said, some of the side quests were absolutely delightful in terms of being fun ideas. I just didn't enjoy the minute to minute gameplay enough to be able to stick with it.
