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~~

I still can't make it through any of The Witcher games. Smooth and satisfying gameplay is super important for me to enjoy a game, and The Witcher has always felt slow, clunky, unintuitive, and super menu-heavy. I'm sure the story is great! But I just can't get past its gameplay.

I adore Witcher 3. That said I've always said controlling Geralt feels like driving a boat. God help you for the very few instances that you do platforming.

They added a different control style sometimes after release, didn't they? I can't recall the specific difference, but I think I used it for my playthroughs and it was less boat-y.

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

I'm not sure there. I played it several years after release, but I can't remember one way or the other if there were alternate control options.

Yeah, pretty quickly. Maybe a month? I remember playing it basically at launch, and deciding I was going to return it, but stopped when they said they were working on an alternative control scheme.

It was actually worse than it is now.

Didn't return it, but much like others in this thread, never got it to stick. Doesn't feel good to play.
