If I still have to put up with Johnny Silverhand then no sale, I had issues with the game beyond the bugs and emptiness of the world.
I can understand not liking Johnny that much, but I can't understand hating him to the point that you think the gaming industry has fallen. That's not really a make or break thing.
whoa whoa whoa, who in the fuck said "Johnny Silverhand means the game industry is over"? CDPR's trash writing and poor design decisions aren't killing any industry.
Might be wrong but you made it seem like Cyberpunk killed your faith in the games industry, so my bad if I'm wrong. Either way, don't really think Johnny counts as trash writing, but you do you.
yeah but as like a "last straw" kind of thing about even bothering with big budget games, but everyone in here seems to want to frame everything i say in the most extreme way possible for some reason
To be fair, you've been saying BG3 looks tedious to play despite it being genuinely one of the absolute best games to come out in the last decade just because it's turn-based, so not quite sure I think our tastes align.
... bro I'm allowed to think it looks tedious and awful, because that's how tastes work. I don't have to pretend to like something because it's popular or other people think it's "the best". I'm fine with turn-based games. What I don't like is extended cutscenes, generic fantasy settings, or TTRPG gameplay, particularly DnD. It's a kind of game I don't care for in the first place, based on a game that I find to be 100% pure tedium, in a type of setting that I am very weary of.
What baffles me the most is why its fans seem so keen on assuming the shallowest take possible and putting words in my mouth because I said their favorite game looks terrible to me. Grow up.
I said our tastes are different, not that you're wrong. You're surprised that people disagree with you making a blanket claim about one of the most beloved games in recent years, AAA or not, and that's your choice to have that opinion and it's not wrong.
I do think you're overreacting to what I'm saying.
you try getting dogpiled for 12 hours for saying how a game based on a game you don't like in the first place looks to you and see how cool your replies are
I dunno, I normally don't say games look tedious and bad if I've only seen a few screenshots, that's just asking to get dog piled. Again, though, totally valid opinion to have.
i watched a 40 minute video but please continue assuming ignorance and stupidity on my part and reading it into everything i say.
