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~~

The newer games, particularly Elden Ring, got wayyyy better about not having to run back to the boss room.

I replayed Dark Souls 1 last year and it made me want to bash my head into the wall every time I had to hoof it back to a boss, especially in the late game.

I only tried DS1 and DS3. In DS1 I beat the first boss and then got to some kind of place where I couldn't even get past the regular enemies and the game didn't feel that interesting to me (especially since it makes you basically most of the thing in corpse mode until you restore your humanity or whatever).

In DS3 I literally couldn't beat the first boss no matter what I did so I gave up
