I know - but nothing you said explains why people still hate the game so much, which was the question that was asked.  If that were the case there are tons of ‘white man liberates the hapless natives’ games which would be just as reviled.

I generally agree with your objections, and don’t consider the game nearly as good as the original in general, but those do not explain why angry white boys hate the game so goddamn much and continue to sustain their hate, like Reutermosss was asking about. This is a five year old game.

So they’ve got NPCs with slow dialogue trees they can dripfeed, and you can make the NPCs like or dislike you with some of your choices, but never enough that they’ll actually stop selling you things. On the plus side they can add more dripfeed dialogue later.

Sadly, like mobile F2P shit, we don’t want them but we’re in the minority - especially as far as spending goes.

Players are just the worst. It’s too bad you need them.

Humans! And Dragons! Humans... and Draaaaagons. Humans? Dragons! Huuuuumans. Dra-GONs. Humans... Dragons...  *wakkachikkawakkachikka*

I knew it! Thanks.

Terrible game, good music.

Essentials was stuffed with ‘stolen’ (let’s ignore whether this is really stealing, it’s a copyright violation) Pokemon sprites, music, etc. That is probably what annoyed Nintendo.

MHW is deeply dependent on which weapon you have. It makes it very much a different game.

Latest Killzone game (PS4) - first 30 seconds of the opening movie, where it solemnly informs you you’ve beaten Space Hitler, or maybe that terrists blew something up on Space Hitler’s main planet and rendered it uninhabitable (which I vaguely remember from the last last game). Anyhow, Space Hitler’s evil empire is in…

Enchanted Arms was just something you played because the X360 didn’t have any other JRPGs early on. I remember the combat being somewhat interesting and different, but the story was complete generic JRPG sludge. You didn’t miss much.

You know Sony, MS, and Nintendo can lock you out of physical games on the PS4, XBone, and Switch?

As a civilian who can fall asleep anywhere, anytime (if not caffeinated), the secret is to just not think - which is harder than it sounds. The reason you lie there stewing is because your brain is going a million miles a minute, just yapping OMG OMG OMG OMG.

Not at all.

Wow, enthusiasm comes through loud and clear. This is less of a game review and more Tim’s Dragon Quest life - but your verdict is also obvious. Glad I broke The Rule and pre-ordered this one.

This is PS4 Special Edition level boring.

Really disappointed they didn’t call this The Last Bock-buster.

This is how I’m trying to convince myself it’s okay to watch - this certainly won’t be what the final game’s like.
