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~~
RDR2. I tried like five times. I could never play it for more than about two hours before being bored and falling asleep at my desk.
I felt RDR2 had extremely slow start, but after the midpoint the game opened up and it evolved into an excellent experience. Well-written, well-acted. Glad I kept going even though I had the same initial reaction.
How many hours is that?
It’s relatively a lot, maybe midpoint wasn’t entirely accurate, but I’d say 25ish at a casual pace. As I said I was just about to give up myself but I was pleasantly surprised in the end. Fantastic game.
