Stray was so mid... If it didn't have cute cats it would have been forgotten instantly.

I was most flabbergasted by the fact that you never hunt anything!! What a miss! How do you make a game where you play as a cat without any stealth stalking of prey??

I remember when the first screenshots for it came out years ago as a cat game inspired by Kowloon Walled City and thought it would be this profound game where you play as a stray cat who weaves itself in and out of all the lives and stories of the people there...and then it turned out to be this really basic linear game. I was so disappointed.

So... you found it mid because it didn't have more robust stealth mechanics than dealing with the Sentinels? It wasn't GOTY material, but it was one of my top games that year. Do you also find games like Destroy All Humans, Portal, and Firewatch mid?

Disclaimer: I'm not mad if you find all those mid, just want to know what your baseline for a "good" game is.

Yeah, but it did have cute vibes and a lot of people love things just for cute vibes

If all the games didn't have the stuff that made them enjoyable then they'd be mid.

I loved it. Even bought a plush of the cat, backpack and all

Damn it, I bought this game. I was hoping it would be like Endling but less sad. That game made me cry like a bitch and I haven't played it since.
