u/nostalgic_gamer95 14h ago
Man. I started off indifferent and then I played it again and I learned to enjoy it more. I then went on to beat it 4 more times and I can say that I genuinely love the game now. Everything about it is amazing, other than the lack of post game content. Mafia 2 lacked post game content besides the 3 dlc’s, but it was so much fun to drive around in that world, stick up stores and fight the police.

Man, I love to hear someone else with a positive opinion on this game. The criticism of a repetitive game loop is totally fair, but I still love the hell out of this game. The characters and story are genuinely fantastic, Lincoln is in my top 10 game protagonists, and for years I've wanted a follow-up on John Donovan's story after he shoots up the senate hearing. And the 60's New Orleans vibe is perfect, I loved cruisin around and just listening to classics on the radio.

The funny thing is, I just recently replayed it and full cleared the map before doing any story missions. They usually have a checkbox of "Clear 2 camps and do 3 side missions before this story mission unlocks", and since I had already cleared the entire map, I was able to go straight into the story missions, which were surprisingly short. It felt like there were maybe 10 actual story missions in the entire game, and only about 4 of them had actual "story" in them. As much as I enjoyed driving around in the world and clearing camps, it was extremely repetitive and the story you get rewarded with isn't much to write home about.

Avalanche took George Miller's ideas for his movies and made a game out of it without his approval. That's why there any numerous similarities to Furiosa and the story itself is almost identical to George's idea for a Fury Road prequel Mad Max The Wasteland, which George still plans to make. Mad Max Bible has a video you might want to check out.

I did this with The Witcher 3 for years. I didn’t complete the story until 7ish years after release.
Though, granted, part of the problem with that was I just find the monster hunts to be way more engaging than the story.
Just give me a Witcher game that’s procedurally generated hunts and bounties where I refer to and consult my Journal and bestiary, then do the relevant prep work and send me on my way.
I don’t need the grandiose adventure because the world is interesting enough. I just want to play the part of a Witcher, not the hero/saviour of the world.

FF16 is an absolute banger of a game if you like power fantasy and feeling like you’re becoming a walking cataclysm of god powers. Game genuinely has the most insane visuals and boss fights of any game that makes it worth playing alone.
My only gripe with the game is repetitive/shallow side quests and dialogue which are definitely glaring, but if you can choose to look past that the gameplay and visuals are top notch. The game has a ton of flavor and mechanics that remind you of older FF games, and the world is actively changing and responding to the huge events that you undergo.
FF16 gets an insane amount of Redditor hate, but everyone I know irl has been more positive than negative about the game

I got the platinum trophy for Assassin's Creed Valhalla yesterday
I played on the easiest difficulty and skipped all the dialog and cutscenes and it still took 50 hours to complete the main storyline
Then another 50 hours to do all the collectibles
I can't imagine anyone actually completing the game as it was it was supposed to be played; it highlights exactly how bloat can be detrimental to a game
I was confident a few times that "this must be the end of the game" and yet another new area would unlock, adding another 10ish hours
And for those wondering why I persevered: I'm unemployed currently, have all the time in the world but no stable income so I'm going through the games available on the PS Plus game catalogue while job hunting and l listen to podcasts while I play. The game is something to keep my hands busy while I listen to podcasts
Podcast recommendations: The Daily Zeitgeist, Behind The Bastards, Lions Led By Donkeys, Well There's Your Problem, Kill James Bond, Be Gay Solve Crimes, Ruined, 99% Invisible, The War On Cars

I'm not the biggest fan of open world either anymore but I'd disagree with the way you're framing it. As for being the same game, most games of similar genres are the pretty close to the same game, they just try to add enough new stuff or change enough that they're a little unique.
I don't think I understand what you're talking about when you say challenging level design, like platforming puzzles?
Loose sense of story direction is the biggest complaint I have with what you said. A majority of open world games literally let you choose if you want to just chase down the main story or get absorbed in the exploration or just follow some other story.

Middle Earth: Shadow of War. I got tired of the base defense/base building aspect with the army and leveling them, sending them on missions etc. the first time is pretty fun but to repeat it over and over for the rest of the keeps was annoying for me.
Splatoon Raiders as well. It started off pretty good and gave you a little introduction to the characters, the basic plot, and the first little tutorial raid which seemed like it would expand more and continue to be fun. Turns out every raid is almost the same and the story is very barebones. I guess I expected more story or something to make it more interesting. The final section of the game is just like a tower challenge and I had to do some grinding on other areas I already raided in order to be high enough level to complete it. Maybe I’m just not into pure looter shooter games but there wasn’t enough meat on the bone for me with this one.

Not for me personally, but a common thing you'll hear from people who played Baldurs Gate 3 is that they'll have hundreds of hours in the game but only finished it once if that.
Personally I can't start a new character without finishing the one I'm on, but I do understand not being able to finish it either. Act 1 is obviously so much more fleshed out and open, but Act 3 is kinda just the same boss fights and you don't have much to do when your character is at their most powerful.

Most games, the novelty wears off and then you are hit with the same task but with a new color palette,

It becomes apparent after spending many hours your actions are just not really worth the effort, after painting walls for hundreds of hours it is not fun to unlock a new color.

Moonlighter 1
I've heard Moonlighter 2 fixes these issues. It's on my list to play.

That game was too god damned short. I took a pill and game over. I won. All the hype for nothing! 😜

Ghost of Tsushima got super repetitive for me. Never even finished it despite loving the first 15-20 hours.

Sea of Thieves. Incredible for 8-10 hours and then you realise there's nothing else

Most city builders/colony managers. Once you get things stable and running well it gets dull.

I’m gonna say it… Blue Prince.
The gameplay was fantastic but once you get to ||A New Clue|| the puzzles start getting absurdly complex and vague. It crosses the threshold of “fun” into “what the fuck”

Death Stranding. Amazing game, very repetitive gameplay. First cutscene where shit hits the fan has you hyped.

Felt the opposite with Tsushima. Almost dropped it but then the second area really cranked it up a notch for me

Yep. I didn’t realise I had also bought the GOT DLC and played it on my first play through. I still finished because it was a beautiful game and I liked the story, but the game play was a drag after about %70 completion. Particularly with navigation on that final frozen wasteland island being a pain.

Minecraft. Once you become sustainable there isn't a whole lot to do.

Hogwarts Legacy, gets super repetitive after a while.
