if you turn off the stupid loving "GO HERE!!!!!!!" arrow and the "win every fight with the wrench and infinite respawns" vitachambers bioshock goes from a boring piece of poo poo to a pretty good game imo

The arrows are pointless because you have one or two routes to choose from at any given time.

I started playing Resident Evil 7 and it's just so loving boring and bad. I only got to the part where you meet the Texas Chainsaw family and I've already committed history's most apathetic ragequit and uninstalled it. Maybe it would be better if you didn't move like a slug with cerebral palsy.

New Vegas was also a huge pain in the rear end if you have any completionist tendencies, which I do. The fact that the story branched so hard and whole option trees were cut off depending on the choices you made rendered it a game I think I played through twice, and couldn't be arsed to start yet another playthrough to try to get all the content I missed.

I know this is from pages back but "this game's choices actually mattered and I didn't like that," has to be some kind of champion-level unpopular video game opinion.

Welcome to modern games development where the story, such as it is exists to be a hook to keep you going thru lame rear end lazy "iterative" gameplay year to year and every facet of play is carefully calculated to encourage paying for season passes and cosmetic unlocks along with minigames the brain can't distinguish from gambling lmao you're all suckers gaming is dead you should never pay a AAA developer your money unless maybe it's CD prokekt red but even then they treat employees like poo poo so you can't win. Piracy has become a moral act of defiance against an industry way more cynical and egotistical than Hollywood ever was coming to power in an age of historically weak labor movements ensuring every product is about bilking you for money on a product made with exploited labor running on hardware manufactured with slave-like workers in hellish plantation factories and the product deliberately exploits the biomechanics of your brain's reward systems exactly the same way a heroin dealer does. Nothing is innocent everything is evil you're all hosed and you'd better believe a bunch of retards would pay me 50 million to crowdsource the open world dystopian cyberpunk rpg based on your hosed up actually real reality brought to you in 4k vr masturbators designed to encourage passive population decline so that in 1000 years the offspring of me, elon musk Hitler jr can frolic in the Elysian fields of Manhattan thanks to my systematic annihilation of the world's populace through the expert manipulation of the pathetic human mind's unrepentant lust for sick video games and self driving suicidal sentient robot cars.

I only ever tried to play RE5 and it was pretty dull and I didn't get far. Apparently the clunky controls are part of the fun, but I think you need to have been broken as a child by playing the originals to appreciate that fact.
