![]() Iterative is becoming the norm, and it's not a great norm. For me GOT was good in it being a new open world IP, but far from great and even further from doing anything new or groundbreaking. I think the most disappointing thing for me was the widely marketed follow the wind and smoke to explore the world as the game ultimately included a map laden with icons of busy work and pointless cosmetic collectibles to gather like any other open world game. I think this game would have been far better with more focus on the stealth side of things and better and more indoor areas and more verticality with it. The combat was novel at first but soon became just automatic feeling aside from the duels. I remember the story and main protagonist feeling very forgettable and emotionless despite the urgency/drama suggested in the story. GOT used so many open world tropes already well-worn that I am surprised that it still gains so much reverie. It' just becoming too much retread in gameplay mechanics like playing the same game over and over with just a different coat of paint (which is exactly what Naughty Dog Games have been since Uncharted). Much like the feeling I got more recently with Forbidden West. to the extent that I just wanted it to be over. I did platinum the game, but I must admit by the end of it, main story and side missions alone, I felt the same open world burnout associated with a ubisoft game. ![]() I am actually surprised this game didnt sell more with its hype. ![]() #Ghost of tsushima pc release Ps4You’re trying to say that a re-release doesn’t affect sales much, but we know that’s not true because the PS4 version of TLoU sold extremely well and is the only reason the first game has reached around 20 million copies sold between the PS3 and PS4. TLoU was re-released barely a year after it came out remastered on PS4, and was selling on two SKUs across two gens of console and it provided a massive boost in sales. It’s the very same reason why comparing sales of TLoU 2 with TLoU is a trivial pursuit. So if you don’t believe having multiple SKUs of a game across two different generations of consoles will increase its sales, then we can just call it a day and move on. Ghost of Tsushima was at or near the very top of the sales charts as reported by NPD when the Director’s Cut re-released on PS5 in August 2021. #Ghost of tsushima pc release freeIf TLoU 2 re-released on PS5, with a new expansion, and free online coop, it would be much further of a gap between the two games than it is currently. ![]()
