  • People don’t typically do dragons well in general tbh. Even when dragons are secondary to the plot, opting for wyverns the no-armed beasts and calling them dragons. It sort of hurts me inside.

    But I agree I want more genuine dragons in my media.

    (Side note, I haven’t read the OP as to not spoil myself so for all I know OP could be arguing the same thing so sorry for the redundant point if that’s the case.)


















  • So, I tried the demo for this when they first showcased it, and I love DON’T NOD a lot, but I just couldn’t get behind this one. Honestly the gameplay was tedious but you get the sense that it’s done like that on purpose, it’s suppose to feel like a goal when you reach the top of whatever you were climbing. Typically to make up for that kind of flow in games, they make the story very rewarding for the player, and I don’t know if it was just me but I just couldn’t bring myself to care about the world I was exploring. When I found notes they didn’t illicit any sort of emotions out of me they just kind of felt like, hey you found a thing good job, enjoy reading about how this person made some soup or something. I dunno, I really wanted to like it from the aesthetic to the vibe, but I just couldn’t. Anyone else kind of feel that way too, or am I crazy?

    That’s not entirely true, I like GOG. But I will say that a big part of why I dislike the use of so many launchers is because 98% of my game library already exists on steam. Publishers would like to use the storefront analogy but I think that gamers look at it more like moving house, and no one likes to move house.

    Also you have to consider that a lot of modern day PC gamers grew up with consoles where there are no launchers there is just the home page and the games.

    That’s not to touch on the much more prevalent and important topics like privacy concerns and the like.
