Why the last ones weren't that great. I own 1-3, only 1 and 2 are worth playing IMHO. I can't wait for the typical broken AAA release lol. The amount of copium is gonna be great.

PS: I do hope I'm wrong, but the game industry kinda blows right now.

it does blow indeed right now. I hope we'll see a change soon but the way things are going it's only going to get worse. Time to invest even more time into indie gaming I guess.

As long as it isn't early access. Been burned way too many times lol.

There are exceptions. Nintendo first party games are generally pretty good, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a recent example, and before that there was Metroid Prime remake and Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

Also Final Fantasy XVI just announced that there won't be a day 1 patch, showing their confidence in the game.

The same Nintendo that hates it's fans. I got a PC I'm not buying a console to play Zelda. It doesn't interest me gameplay wise. I'll take your word it's good, just not what I'm into. Maybe if I happened across a decent trade or really really cheap, but um not interested in consoles/handhelds.

Sure, you don't have to play them. Everyone has their own taste and preferences, but you were talking about the game industry in the context of "typical broken AAA release", and I just gave you a few examples where it's not the case.

If you don't like Nintendo, Sony also generally releases games in very finished and polished state.

If talking specifically about PC, I don't have much information about it, but I do know some of the bigger releases (even Sony's port) were messed up when released on PC, so I can understand your point of view.

I would have a real hate boner for Nintendo as a PC player, but with one exception (Fire Emblem series) they never managed to make a game which i would be even remotely interested in playing.
