@gameragodzilla The only problem I really have with the game if you look at it from the bubble is the shooting is really weak for what one would expect of a AAA game. In particular, it was really bad about having cover you should be able to shoot through, but actually can't. A lot of the weapons lack impact as well. But that's really it. I don't even actually…

Tyranny is pretty overrated and overpriced.

but obsidian is one of those developers that can do no wrong in the eyes of its fanbase, so Im not sure there's much point in going on about it

Here's the thing about short length complaints in a game: if someone is complaining that a game has a short length, it usually comes from a root place of the person feeling like their experience was incomplete in some way. There was something more that should have been there that was not. For instance, I didn't mind the length of Doom 4 because it felt like a tig…

@doze49 Paradox just published it and tbqh they are one of those publishers who seem to publish near enough anything so they have some good games and some bad ones.
Obsidian is the developer and they have a long history of development-hell half-baked games that gain cult followings.

@katiekats Tyranny is trying to be Chrono Trigger.

@katiekats Undertale part the second

@gameragodzilla The problem with doing crossover stuff like Shadow Warrior 2 with the roguelike elements is that you end up importing the expectations of both genres. But more than that, if you give me a big interesting world, I'm going to want to explore it and know more about it, and Shadow Warrior 2 didn't really flesh out the world much. In this way, the linear route of the original reboot worked better.

@gameragodzilla The thing is we've seen like stuff with Strife that you can do a FPS-centric hybrid game just fine if you make the RPG elements story based, so its not like its impossible.
You should really play Strife if you haven't btw.

@gameragodzilla My bottom line with Human Revolution is its a good GAME, its just not a good DEUS EX GAME.
-
@gameragodzilla Human Revolution actually kind of frustrates me more in this way, because it could have easily succeeded on its own merits because it IS a good game, if you take it in a bubble divorced from the name. Thief 4 was just shit. I'd have to be invested in a game to hate it and I was never invested in Thief 4, excepting its legacy.
