Surprised to see BG3 here. "Why does anyone like this game?" Because they have no idea what a good RPG looks like. BG3 is the lamest, dullest, most perfunctory RPG ever made. The combat is rote. The characters are painfully uninteresting. The story is schizophrenic and goes nowhere satisfying. At no time in my 240 hours with BG3 was I ever in danger of being amused, entertained, or engaged. Quite frankly, BG3 is no different than Starfield and I'm sick of pretending it's not. BG3 is simply incompetent. It's a poor man's RPG. Anyone looking for an RPG can do better.

I'm tired of the colorful language when it comes to critiques and beating around the bush to make a small group of people feel better. That includes opinions I also disagree with also. If creators, media outlets, and people in general were more honest, our society wouldn't be in the shitter.

I truly wonder what the future of AAA video games will be. Will there be a large scale collapse like in the 80s (a hard collapse), or will the industry just hang around forever like a stale fart as indie titles hoover up the scraps (a soft collapse)? If things do fall apart, how quickly will things rebound? Or, will gaming become a niche hobby again? Will it be a combination of the things I mentioned, or none of them? Granted, similar questions could asked about the future of the West as well...

It will definitely take a game to completely revolutionize gaming wether for the best or worst for the game industry to change. Most game design of single player games are in some way shape or form inspired by the last of us which is an example a game that attracted a lot of mainstream attention and you can witness that since that game other game development teams have tried copying its design. Weather it is incorporating its stealth mechanics, camera style, and pacing. Though I’ll say pacing has gotten much worse now.
