    The funny thing is that the game that does the "Ubisoft formula" the best is the game that destroyed it. Breath of the wild. All of the quests are pretty damn linear, the map reveals itself in chunks, and it's always telling you where to go. In a lot of ways, breath of the wild is a lot like these games. So what makes it work? It's the fact that the end of the game is revealed to you at essentially the start of the game. Ubisoft games can feel so tedious because you NEED to do certain quests, whereas Zelda could be either 5 hours long or 100 hours depending on how much of the game you want to play. To me, it's still the unprecedented goat of open world design because of this choice.

      Cool misinformation. PT had nothing to do with RE7's look and feel, all evidence and statements from the RE7 team say otherwise.

    I am really bored of indies as well, though. Of all these retro graphics games that look deliberately underwhelming, and also this seeming superiority complex behind it all, like you just aren't openminded enough to enjoy the "art" of these 2-dimensional pixels. Look, you're right, I'm sure the gameplay is fun, but it's just not what I want.

  • @123pa1n
    @123pa1n Před 3 dny

    Open world design is a fcking annoying and has 0 replayability. In Elden RIng i cant remember how many times i said to myself: why am i spending 2 hours exploring just to find some throwing knifes and a goddamn liver...... Open world games need an actually dynamic world that changes even without the influence of the player. Like for example Total War Games turn out different based on which ai faction performs the best. Atleast sometimes the "world" turns out completely different if u dont influence it too much.

  • @Songfugel
    @Songfugel Před 4 dny

    BG3 isn't that special tbh, people just have forgotten how amazing cRPGs are. Dragon Age: Origins is already an ancient game, but BG3 is in many ways a carbon copy of it (and that was intentional goal from Larian and imho a good thing). For anyone who has played cRPGs, BG3 is not that ground-breaking (honestly) apart from how much media attention it has gained. To put it bluntly: gameplay-wise it is a simplified version of Divinity Original Sins 2, but with the cinematics of Dragon Age. In story and writing aspect it pales in comparison to Torment, Disco Elysium and Pillars of Eternity. Gameplay, companion and scale -wise it pales in comparison to Baldur's Gate 2 and Owlcat's Pathfinders and Rogue Trader However, BG3 manages to hit the sweet spot of adding just enough of every one of these aspects without becoming too hard to approach for casuals, while still staying relatively addictive/intriguing for cRPG maniacs (like myself). The only real (and it is a massive) problem I have with BG3, is how they backed away from their original vision for the story (which is partially preserved in DUrge) that sounded so much more amazing than the watered down story they changed into mid-way (running out of money might have been the reason) TL;DR; BG3 isn't that revolutionary of an cRPG, it just brought the big budget cRPGs back to the main stream fro hiatus, and in a big way. So if you have already finizhed BG3 a couple of times, go give those other cRPG masterpieces ago. They have all aged insanely well, and for me personally, BG2 is still the best cRPG game of all time (far ahead of BG3 in many ways)

  • @Elegost3000
    @Elegost3000 Před 4 dny

    Story quests don't have to be narrative and many even story games prove this. Unlike in actual DnD, in Baldurs Gate, checks are used mostly for exposition, whether or not you start combat and to sometimes make combat easier. I was extremely disappointed when I succeeded a 30DC check on Thorm only to fight him like normal still. Divinity 2, Pathfinder WotR and BG3 set a completely new standard for these kinds of games while something like Kingdom Come: Deliverance completely changed it up for an action rpg

    As much of a weenie I am, RE7 is my favourite RE. Did not know it was such a small team that worked on it. The way they went about developing the game really feels like a product of passion. As much as I like 5/6 they definitely lost a lot of the horror elements and sometimes even felt like an arcade shooter.

    I remember when you used certain plasmids, the little sister would comment. Generally, I would explore the areas with them before doing their collections. Two that stick out in my memory are when you shocked someone: The little sister would say, “Look, daddy, he’s dancing! Dancing!” and the second was when you’d use incinerate, and she’d just go, “oooo marshmallow!”

  • @YetMoreCupsOfTea
    @YetMoreCupsOfTea Před 5 dny

    See, for an older lover of RPGs like me who started with games of this sort in the 90s, the thing that BG3 does is simply give me what I've always loved in games, but that I've found was lacking in recent years. I think it changes things much more for younger players who may not have enjoyed the big, beautiful, story-driven RPGs that many of us played in the 90s and 00s. Failure in game choices was always a part of many older RPGs.
