These third person cinematic games have basically killed the games industry. They encouraged an incestuous relationship between Hollywood and video games, made everyone complete graphics-obsessed WHORES, and have allowed dumbass, libshit writers to dominate the direction of gaming. The worst part is that these cinematic games have such simplistic appeal that the casual crowd will buy these games in perpetuity.
I can’t be excited for GOW Ragnarok at all because I know the story will be full of leftist garbage and the gameplay will be just as shallow, rigid, and constrained as it was in GOW 2018, and it annoys me to no end that GOW 2018 is still revered as this masterpiece in such a fanatical manner… Even with so many flaws, criticizing the game is seen as a sin for some reason.
Just pretend the world ended in 2016 and you still have a lifetime of games to play.
Its a great time to get into emulation.
