    I honestly like shorter adventures the older I get. Like, To bring it back to Zion's new favorite game, if I start a new game+ with Chrono Trigger, it's less time I need to spend on grinding if I needed to in the original run through. So having a game that I could play in a day and complete sounds more fun to me. Now excuse me as I go be old elsewhere.

    This game looks like a great time, I love Zelda and am always curious to check out each of it's spiritual contenders. It's too bad the story only sounds so-so, but maybe that's something they can brush up a bit in their next title. I do like the looks of the big towns, I imagine I'll spend a good bit of time just walking around talking to everyone and looking at everything!

I'm honestly more surprised that they called bloodstained ritual of the night as a genre that "you don't see anymore".

    First off, Zelda is not an annual franchise... we get a real new zelda game every 3-6 years... the rest are remakes, ports, spin offs... even game LIKE Zelda are far in between, and most of them not half as good as Zelda... while we get a Bigazilion metroidvanias and firs person horror game every year.
    So when i see Zelda-likes coming out, and good ones, might i had, i can only applause it and be super enthousiastic!

    • @braydengraves4655
      @braydengraves4655 2 роки тому +4

      They are counting the remakes and spinoffs towards the "Annual Franchise" moniker. Every year we don't get a new game, we get at least one of those two.

      Zelda is there is always something whether a remake, port, anniversary or a new game. The comparison was to Bloodstained i.e. Castlevania a dead franchise at the moment which Metroid was a dormant franchisse created a metroidvania craze as the traditional series died out. The same can be said to his other examples. He made the point that this was resurreting the 2D top down Zedla which Nintendo seems to be moving away from except when remaking old games i.e. Links awakening. His comparison was abt and you mentioning first person horror is hilarious as that isnt attached to any IP like a metroidvania, its a huge genre like fps.

    Garbage and a waste of money...
    lack of detail: it only has a little bit of graphical details. Which isnt fair tbh. Like you dont know where your going or which way is which. Lack of map detail makes it more difficult to figure out.
    Taking survival aspect: they need to calm down and quit putting survival in the games. It doesnt need it. The game requires you to eat and craft to survive. It doesnt need that.
    Made by a cheap ass developer making cheap games. They made some basic games.
    Quests dont provide enough informations. Its missing some details.
    It seems like they rushed through the game.
