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~~
I was thinking about that with TotK too, but kept on with it… the exploration of the Chasms added a lot for me, and I think the shrines are better.
To answer your poll, I find Mario Odyssey to be overhyped. Not saying its a bad game, but the collecting gets tiresome and the levels are nowhere near as interesting as the Galaxy games
Same with you on totk. The tutorial area was worrying, but once I got outside and saw how big they made the world, it felt like an actual sequel.
