I’ll start. pokemon. doesn’t matter if the game’s old or new I just can’t get into how it plays. idk the gameplay just gets old to me pretty quickly, palworld is an upgrade in every way tbh

I found both Knights of the Old Republic and Mass Effect completely unplayable.
Curious to know why.
Mass effect for me feels like it’s generic scifi, so I can’t get into it and appreciate the writing but KOTR has a star wars flair at least.
Personal opinion here obviously: Mass effect, or at least the first one, was actually surprisingly well written and internally consistent. Kind of like a star trek lite. There was interspecies tension, people expressing feelings on the state of the universe, but also enough moustache twirling to keep it interesting as well. It struck a good balance between that and a decent looter shooter/RPG combo, at least for my tastes.
The later games lost a lot of that and overly relied on what the first game setup up without expanding much on it, but that first game was just chefs kiss.
Not saying you’re wrong or anything, more just this is what I personally get out of it.
Interesting.
Let me rephrase: I always believed it had good writing, but lacked interesting enough scifi concepts for me. In my opinion good writing trumps all, but having a interesting hook always makes writing more accessible.
I had already seen the same save the world and interspecies stuff by the time I was concious enough to play mass effect. (I am not that young, but I think mass effect came out in 2007.)
That’s entirely fair. I think it suffers a lot from most of the interesting stuff getting hidden in the codex. I totally get your experience though, I’ve had a few games that have been good, but I’ve seen the concept done enough for it but to hook me in.
It’s the gameplay, the mechanics.
