Another game where combat looks to be so much of an afterthought they didn't even bother going over it in a "Gameplay Overview"

It's also ironic it says gameplay overview, and they spent more than half the video talking about story, voice acting, and music.

OMG, yes! Every time I wanna visit my favorite historical site, I launch Assassin's Creed and play the same 3 missions over and over again! Bless! 💚

🎵 Assassin's Creed is a good franchise 🎵

Yes, please.

I have a lot of respect for some Western developers, and there also is a lot of trash that comes out of Japan, but I don't care about your photorealistic graphics or whatever emotional story your team of wannabe TV/film writers cooked up: Japan just does fun better, IMO.

I'll always recommend Catherine, Bayonetta, and Crimzon Clover: World EXplosion. Cheap, extremely fun, and very replayable.

Also, one of the best fighting games of all-time for $4: Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R.

And if you're a Persona person, maybe don't sleep on Persona 4 Arena Ultimax? Super fun fighting game and relatively cheap.

Amen. I also have a ton of issues with contemporary game design—padding playtime with procedural generation, prioritizing graphics, world size, or narrative over gameplay… etc.

Nowadays, I feel as if every game tries to compete for "most game" while lacking cohesion and polished ideas.

And to top it off: non-optimized game size. I'm sorry—I don't care if your game is $2.99, I'm not downloading 80GBs just to try a game I may refund an hour later.

True in my case. All of my favorites either were released before 2020 or originally released before 2020 and I'm playing the re-release.

Only new IP I got excited about after 2020 was Project G.G. and I strongly doubt it'll ever see the light at this point.

I've never enjoyed any Ubisoft game except maybe South Park? And I'm guessing this is because it was a collab between Obsidian and Matt and Trey.

I wish. SimpleX has a notification/delivery issue on iOS—it's not reliable at all over there.

Jami sucks. I will continue to have it installed and hope one day it evolves into a reliable instant messenger, but, currently, it's extremely unreliable. Not for times of war.

FR. I hate this app so much, and how necessary it has become for multiplayer gaming. I'm glad it'll get worse and hopefully give people a strong reason to move.

Odd take in this context. The last game in this trilogy was released almost 20 years ago—if they're not gonna remaster this, what are remasters for exactly?
