Bully is the greatest open world game as far as I am concerned and I do not think anything with that much fleshing out will come from any other game past or present. It is also very original from the soundtrack down to the individual characters.
Red Dead Redemption is not as good as Gun, which takes a lot of inspiration from the Sergio Leone movies. Undead Nightmare alleviates some of Read Dead Redemption’s shortcomings in the same way The Ballad of Gay Tony alleviates some of the shortcomings of Grand Theft Auto IV.
There is not much to Grand Theft Auto V’s campaign or open world. However, The introductory bank heist, Trevor’s psychopathic tendencies, and Strangers & Freaks missions were pretty amusing. It was also mildly interesting to explore the world until I found how shallow the interaction of the characters to the world is. Hell, I remember having conversations with NPCs and going on gang rampages and buying/selling coke in Scarface: The World is Mine and having a much better time despite a slightly weaker narrative.
Played through Gun again last year and thought it def wasn’t as good as RDR, or even as good as I remembered it being the first time I played it. Felt like I should have left that one a good memory. Oh well.

Open world games aren’t usually worth my time.
Ardyn, Seymour, Nael, Gaius, and Sephiroth are better *Final Fantasy *villains than Kefka.
Zenos yae Galvus is a coiled up petrified dog shit of a bad guy.
You guys might know but is there anything fun I could play that doesn’t involve the use of my right index finger which I broke.

Just use your middle finger instead.
Cramps man and it actually hurts like fuck doing that with a controller, for me at least. Maybe I can click with the mouse in a MOBA doing it.

Didn’t know you were playing on a mouse?
If it was on a controller with shoulder buttons you could just use your middle finger. I’ll do that some times on games with heavy use bof the shoulder buttons (Bayonetta as one example).
I’m right-handed but it only took me a day or two to get used to using my left hand to control the mouse when I needed
Also, just use a pad. You can play pretty much any game that doesn’t require you to press R1 or R2 (on a Dualshock controller)…
Zelda 3 doesn’t make use of the shoulder buttons I think, and neither do Super Ghouls and Ghosts and Super Castlevania 4.
Probably the same with a lot of other SNES games, and the ones I’ve listed a pretty good games that everybody should’ve played at least once.

Play the Metal Slug games
You mean Link to the Past. It’s shoulder button use is nonexistent.
Shoulder buttons really being to come into its own was not until later in the SNES Lifecycle.
Persona 5 is boring af because it takes forever and a day for the game to start.
Like goddamn, I don’t feel like going to school again.
How far are you? I feel you on the game’s start.
Just got the fourth party member last night.
I don’t know man. Maybe I’m just losing the patience for JRPGs now.
Playing Wipeout Omega Collection I realize that honestly Wipeout without ps1-era graphics just doesn’t do it for me. Wipeout 3 was the pinnacle of the series - everything else has been close but no cigar. Kids these days just won’t understand the wonderment of going from 16 bit games to going down that first tunnel, flying off that first ramp in Wipeout 1.
Definitely understandable. I love jrpgs one of my fave genres, but even now its hard for me to really play one consistently. I’ve beaten 2 this year lol.
I think p5 is great, but don’t force yourself to finish, but you are far enough to where idk if you’d be fine dropping the game at that part. I will say one thing wrong with p5 is TOO much dialog and it feels like you’re pressed for time. I don’t remember feeling that way in p3 and p4. I swear some entire gaming sessions I had for p5 were like 90% dialog reading/watching
I like me some old school rare.
but the question is, were they ever really that good? I’ve been thinking about this lately, and it seems most of their projects started out ambitious and then at the last minute it was like “fuck it, do whatever Nintendo just did but with a collectathon”
Diddy Kong Racing;
Development of the game began after the release of Killer Instinct 2, and was intended to be a **real-time strategy game **known as Wild Cartoon Kingdom during early stages.
but they said, “fuck it, its like Mario kart with collecting”
sfa, conker and bk have similar stories all ending with them doing something Nintendo already did.
Aside from GoldenEye and PD maybe Rare gets too much credit
It’s the same with wave race. That game was ass but compared to those old 2d motorcycle games it was incredible.
the thing that makes wave race stand out is how realistic the waves are, especially in blue storm.
I’m not sure why that series died off.
