THANK YOU

Final fantasy xvi side quest I listened to podcast but calling gta podcast game is insane to me and depressing because of how genuinely fun the games were before the foucs on realism.

not even a hot take or unpopular we stand with you brother and the GTA V fans cant even fight

What samurai game even got yall this f***ed up

saw them onimusha scores and got furious

this isnt unpopular its blatant but the western gaming media is more critical of eastern and other country game design because they know american game design has stagnated

The game was soo good

so many coop memories. We used to get a game for 50$ with coop, multiplayer and a focus on game mechanics over graphics or mocap

Made amazing memories on those games.

Classic quake clone

I agree the pursuit of realism ruined RDR2 but lowkey - GTA games have never had great gameplay and always had that clunky feeling even during VC/SA era. Camera movement with the mouse was awkward if you played on PC, combat always had that auto aim system and flying controls suck in those games too. I feel like people say V/RDR2 feels awful to play because Rockstar is trying to be realistic but that's just how GTA has played since 3

You aren't wrong. I am probably excusing VC, SA for being PS2 games where camera movement, controls etc. were just starting to get more standardized for 3D games.

San Andreas is the only good Rockstar game

I remember thoroughly enjoying a lord of the rings game, don't remember if it was this one or something else cus it was the homies PlayStation

GREAT TAKE

Wish rather than a call of duty or bungie major companies bought properties like Timesplitters,Bloody roar and many classic gaming franchises that essentially died that they could use to make great games.

Vice city>>>

Return of the king was the goat one cuz it had 2 player co op

Super Mario world was too ez Mario was too overpowered, had the cape to just fly over every level, or wack everything around, the spin jump with cape or fire balls shooting, an extra power up AND Yoshi for extra hits

Mario 3 is the goat Mario game, insane variety with tons of secrets while being very challenging

vice city also great

You literally praised RDR2 a few weeks ago

Horrendous take but you will have dipshits like HaroldsChicken praising you for this

Its going to be alright

Dark Souls influence was bad for gaming

GTA as a game series is like a buffet. Most of the food in buffets is average but you get a whole plate with all kinds of food, Its the same with GTA. Other than the open world and the radio element, all the other parts in GTA games are mostly average.
