The specific game is bad. I played it like 6 months ago. I did the quest line with the female character, got through most of it and she randomly glitched Forever. She's crouched down in a bus or something. After that I bee-lined it through the main quest. Don't know why anyone would think this is good. So many terrible and useless RPG elements. So much rubbish dialogue.

Witcher 3 seemed like it wanted the cutscenes to be the selling point and I couldn't get into it either, but I could at least see how Losers could enjoy it just because it's a large fantasy world that isn't Bethesda slop.

so many western games have useless rpg elements, like wtf? Fallout 4 was egregious in this respect. All of the stats and modifiers were just for show and amounted to essentially nothing. But you still had to bother with 'leveling up' and adjusting skill points. Either make an rpg or don't. There's a reason Zelda is so successful, how do they not see this.

Isn't Assassin's Creed basically an RPG now? Meanwhile Elden Ring is barely an RPG and it's better off for it.

Literally no one copies Zelda either. Westerners are Afraid and Easterners have too much deference for Nintendo. Maybe Westerners just don't know how, and would just make it an FPS...

In like 2007 everyone hated turn-based RPGs. Idk why people are tolerating it now or even like it. Yes action RPGs usually have slop gameplay but turn-based is just weak and it's hard to make it properly challenging. They can make it seem challenging by having bosses kill players but then give you plenty of time to revive them. The actual best balance is FF7 Remake/Rebirth but nobody cares. Everyone has become an N64 fan and wants to re-litigate the 5th gen.

Yeah there's something to that. If it can be "won" then it is probably either exploitable, too easy or on rails and barely even a game. That's why I think cowshit is wrong about indie games. Like the devs of Super Meat Boy understand what makes a game better than Ubisoft or EA.

I played a game called Deadline where you were a detective who had to figure out who killed someone by gathering evidence and interrogating witnesses. I could never get hard enough evidence to pin it on anyone. I still have no idea who did it.

"New commands were implemented to suit the game's detective theme: the player can accuse or even arrest any of the suspects at any time. A well-timed accusation can cause an unnerved suspect to reveal previously concealed information. For an arrest to stick, however, the player must possess hard evidence of the three basics: motive, method, and opportunity. Without these, the game ends with a description of why the presumed culprit was released. The standard examine and search commands are present, but the player can also fingerprint objects or ask the invaluable Sgt. Duffy to analyze them.

There are only two ways for the player to die,[3] but Infocom gave Deadline a difficulty rating of "Expert", largely due to the abundance of evidence and false leads to be sorted out within a short timespan."

The old ultima games let you assemble a squad, and you had to get everyone's stats up. If you picked up a dood with low stats, you either saved him for the end of the fight to get his stats up, or you fed him as dog food to an enemy, like Ukraine sending janitors info minefields. At the end of the game you could save your survivors onto a floppy disk and import them into the next Ultima game

There's nothing remotely like that now. I can't look a unit's stats and decide he's expendable, then use him that way. Can't build up a character and then reuse it in the next game.
