I liked the gunplay, I hated that it was the core gameplay loop. It was so off-putting that you just keep rocking into massive 20-man shootouts and you solo the whole thing. I'd much prefer it if it was more duel-based and even then there's less of them. There's a reason they're the peak of most western movies and not... Just the bread and butter filler. Meeting someone at high noon should be a big deal, instead I hit antagonize and here I go murdering again

I don't understand it and probably won't pick up the next read dead if it plays so boring again. Skinning animals to get the various different arthur outfits and stuff like that had absolutely no appeal to me. I did hunt down the legendary animals and did most of the sidequests so I gave the game a fair shake.

I'm glad you like it, but I would almost call it more of a simulator than an actual video game.

You do you though. Bloodborne is my personal favorite game of the last 10 years if that tells you anything.

Never got to try bloodborne, but it looks cool. I loved Sekiro.
I guess it could be called a simulator more than an action game (if it wasn't for all the darned gunplay), but I like immersive sims. Shadows of Doubt is a great one

I reccomend when you have the spare cash lying around picking up a cheap used ps4 just to play bloodborne. If you liked sekiro you'll love that as well.

Not knocking you for liking what you like. This is a joke topic anyways

I'll give it a shot!

Yeah, if i hadn't enjoyed that I'd probably hate the game too lol.

Haven't played it yet, but I'm looking forward to it. I loved DS1 and I'm one of thise wierd people who loved DS2
