So a story mode? Like the first AC games? There is a story and you play the game while the story unfolds and the writers decided what happens and you get immersed in the story without five hundred fake decision that make no difference what so ever?
I agree, but also noncanon can get pretty fun. Imo the best ending I've recently seen like this is actually a cod game where you slowmo kill all the AI protagonists and nuke Europe
Anything with bonkers ideas or decision is fun. I mean kicking a squirrel against a tree in baldurs gate 3 is one of my favorite memories of our play trough.
Don't forget the far cry(4?) that ended after waiting 10 m after the villain said wait 😁
I must’ve missed the last 10 yrs of COD but that sounds wildly fun!!! Would you recommend?
It's been pretty hit or miss the last few years, but black ops 6 is definitely worth it. The noncanon scene I mentioned is in Black Ops Cold War, which is about 4 years old now (Bo6 is also it's direct sequel). It's a lot of fun, but to unlock it you'll have to solve some tricky and well hidden but simple puzzles throughout the whole story. It might take a few tries to get it, but it's more satisfying than the canon ending imo.
Putin???
I think this is the exact opposite of story mode. Most of the time "Story mode" is extremely easy gameplay so you can just focus on the story.
This is basically "gameplay mode" where you don't need to pay attention to the story at all or make any story decisions.
