my number one concern is always gameplay and i honestly could give a gently caress about story
ehh, kind-of same though i tend to make exceptions. bioshock infinite gameplay was mediocre at it's peak, but story/aesthetics appeased me. witcher 1 may have mind-numbing combat (iirc from years ago), but it has been quite a while since i have read anything on a binge like the one witcher series books got me onto, so i'll play for the sake of it

multiplayer games, on the other hand, lol if i care about anything there but gameplay

remember how they started a whole tongue in cheek "PC Master race" thing about kind of how ridiculous platform wars are but now it's not ironic and now people are like blood quantum counting Nazis but for if you play on an xbox or not

I mean good luck but I beat the witcher 1 in 2010 and even then that game was arduous as gently caress to deal with

but hey geralt is #1 and the witcher series is #1

i just hope it does not have lots of busywork, though that's the centrepiece feature of older video game design in order to "captivate the player"

there's also a group on Steam that keeps track of which games have a 30fps cap. It's just presenting neutral information and has never lead to harassment of developers, of course.

while getting super mad about it is ridiculous, a 30fps cap on a PC video game is rather silly

my youthful boyish eyes find 30fps to be noticeably sluggish and a detriment to smooth gameplay

yeah, but lots of the games they talk about are old games or ports, and nobody's going to sit down and draw a bunch of extra sprites or completely recode the engine

it's like listing movies which don't have surround sound, as if that should be a big reason to not watch something rather than an inherent limitation based on era and resources

actually if there's anything in a game that i don't like, its because of laziness.
