I think the issue that people are responding to is that you’re comparing it to Diablo, which is fundamentally a different game. Diablo is a hack and slash game with rpg elements and a god awful loot system. Bg3 is pretty much just playing DND on a computer without a dungeon master. They’re just two completely different games. You can’t even hack or slash in bg3, it’s turn based and tactical.
That said, if you don’t like the aesthetic of fantasy games, then clearly none of this will matter to you.
Frankly, it seems like you mostly care about the aesthetics of a game (no shade, just saying) so I’m kind of curious what your favorite game is?
well that came later in the discussion after the cramming had begun and hey i was definitely wrong for that but it does look basically the same until you look close. telling me “go look up a video” was probably the worst way to explain what he meant so thanks for clearing up what that other person was trying to say. I hadn’t looked into this game before but I already didn’t think it sounded very interesting, and now I’m certain I don’t want to play it.
I don’t mind a fantasy aesthetic as a strict rule but the genre staples have been done to death, everything is stale dollar store middle-earth (with some le edge and gritte because GoT did well so gotta copy that) and I’m pretty over it. if it’s got personality that’s one thing but fantasy games almost never do anymore, it all sinks into that low-effort stock setting and medieval camp.
I’m not going to mention any particular game as my favorite because this is still basically reddit, and I am talkig to gamers, and my experience informs me that if I say what I like it will definitely be weaponized against me. But I do like platformers, driving games, turn-based strategy, spaceflight, and the odd RPG that manages to hit that rare sweet spot where it’s not flavorless stock narrative but not incomprehensibly up its own ass either.
Yeah for sure, gamers get so fucking sweaty and cringey about people who like different shit. It’s annoying. I’ll take the heat and just say windwaker is my favorite Zelda game.
If you like platformers, I highly recommend spark the jester 3, it’s like a good new sonic game. Also I guess Ghost runner is like a platformer/action game that’s supposed to be good? Haven’t played it yet but it looks cool.
Anyway I wish you luck in your search for good new games, and I hope you continue to be a chill ass viber
