Whenever I look at it I think of a 2 bed new build apartment on a 25 year leasehold mortgage, hoppy IPAs, furbabies, beard oils, a "gaming bar" adorned with Marvel posters... it's just not for me. Honestly the series has always been mid, the PSP games were the best since the gameplay is simple enough to not need many buttons.You are COOKING with all of these, apart from the remake one.
To echo some other opinions in this thread, I found RDR2 to be a completely vapid exercise in superficial details, in a world you can't interact with in any meaningful way. Couldn't finish it. I have however become more tolerant in old age and can understand why people might like it, if you play it like a JRPG where the gameplay is a formality and you're just there for the vibes.
Never played a BioWare RPG. The concept of role playing in video games has always eluded me. Like, I just play as me. I look at the game with my eyes and derive any enjoyment I can through the character of myself.
The universal praise for Nintendo's annual bing bing wahoo never fails to baffle me. I have nothing but respect for SMB1 and SM64, but this franchise and company have been a borderline cult for a long time now.
I won't play remakes. RE4 was just about acceptable since they changed all the level design, but I still felt like i'd rather be playing either original RE4 or an entirely new game.
And finally Half Life 2 was overhyped and I never finished it. The first was better.
