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~~

Didn't play Skyrim at the time and the two times I've tried to get into It didn't really click for me. I understand why people like It, may give another try sometime

Oh thank god, I came here to say Skyrim and was afraid of being the only one.

I should have liked it. Absolutely loved Morrowind. But just never could get into Skyrim despite multiple attempts and now I've given up.

In all fairness, you wouldn't like it just because you liked Morrowind. The games play entirely different from one another and the story of Skyrim is a downgrade by several margins (though some of the sidequests are awesome).

This is coming from someone who has like 200 hours in Skyrim.

Perhaps try a total conversion, skyrim is basically a mod engine anyway lel

[–] psudo@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I tried that, but in the end it turns out I found hunting for mods more fun than actually playing them.

I never managed to get far in Skyrim. And even if you like it, I don't think it's too controversial to say that it has one of the worst intros for an open world game.

I could never get over the fucking monotone same-voice way every NPC speaks.

Everything about that game felt monotone, to me.

I think about trying again, once in a while, but haven't yet. They keep releasing new versions at prices I'm not willing to pay for it.
