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~~

    Return of the Obra Dinn. I adore puzzle mystery games, but I can’t stand the art style and it felt like I was constantly fighting the mechanics and interface.

    Also Inscryption. Often the cards would purposely not explain their mechanics, but I would use it and it would do something unexpected and one bad decision often would cause to lose. I usually love deck builders like that but it was so frustrating to feel like I was being punished for trying new things.

      I loved Inscryption, especially the first part (no spoilers…) but I can see why It may get frustrating at times. If anyone reading this hasn’t played It, I really recomend going in blind and give It a try

      For me, Obra Dinn’s issue was I wasn’t solving a mystery, I was keeping accounts. We’re not trying to find a killer or unravel what happened, that’s been handed to us. We’re just filling out forms indicating how each individual died.
