...fucking sucks mang. I can't be bothered with reading through loads of shit anymore, because 99% of the time the writing is pretty bad. Tried playing Yakuza Like a Dragon but fuck me it's too tedious, I just want to play a game. How many games do you think would win an oscar of a nobel or a pulizer or whatever for their writing? Zero.
It's like all this bullshit about games as an artform even though games have no idea how to achieves this even. u know. a audio/visual/textual interactive experience with all the potential in the world but then games tryna be like poorly lit movies or CYOAs with some bullshit mechanics in between. they're called games for a reason, how many artforms are called games? maybe the hunger games because thats actually a book. if it was an actual game it would be called putbg. do u catch my drift, tokyo style
