Why not reintroduce TNT, or a variation of TNT, I mean if they are just sitting around doing nothing waiting for the new games to come out, shouldn't be that hard to do multiplayer stuff with the community.

Because TNT isn't entertaining unless it's inhouse and the community is terrible? Please don't bring back TNT!

Skyrim is better than any Saint's Row game, hope this helps.

The combat in Skyrim is so loving bad and the vast majority of the game is samey/boring and was profoundly broken on release. Saint's Row 3 was the best game of 2011!

Jeff didn't agree that Destiny was a good game, Jeff said that 2014 was so profoundly disappointing that (arguably) the year's most disappointing game would still be one of the top 10 games released.

I think Persona 3 is garbage compared to Persona 4. It's fine taken on it's own, but Persona 4 really polishes the heck out of every aspect of the game. Also it's fun to hang out with your party members, not like the miserable group of not-friends in Persona 3.

P3P made big improvements in this regard; the female protagonist has social links with all of the party members and isn't a giant dick. It also has the battle system improvements from 4.

P3 still suffers a lot from pacing and Tartarus in particular being monotonous, though. Still a great game and worth playing.

Wait, when does this start? I'm in the same boat as kater where I've played P3 for 2 months game time and I'm about to quit because there's just nothing to keep you going. On probably about 80% of days I can't do the social links I want to do and I can't go to Tartarus for one reason or another, so I do one of the two things the game will let me do and then go to sleep, and hope I have more freedom to do stuff the next day. I'm always stressing those Elizabeth requests because there are so few days I can get into Tartarus that I feel like I have to min/max every day and make sure I do exactly the right thing. And there is no plot to speak of so far. This is after about 10 hours of game time.

P3 has really bad pacing, everything interesting happens from summer onward and even then there are big lulls.

I like Witcher 3 and have been obsessed with all Witcher games, having played Witcher 1 and 2. I played about 20 hours of Fallout 3 before I got completely frustrated with the combat and finally realized that the story and setting were complete poo poo. Never played New Vegas. I played a bunch of Skyrim. I enjoyed that it evolved from the prior Elder Scrolls games, but still think it is too overly repetitive/janky and has bad combat.

Fallout/Elder Scrolls games have bad combat. Why can't they fix that before adding 50 systems on top of it? Imagine an Elder Scrolls game with combat like Witcher 3. Imagine a Fallout game with shooting like Call of Duty or Wolfenstein.

I wish Bethesda would take their games and fix the core instead of keeping these janky as gently caress core systems and then layering a bunch of bullshit on top.

Witcher 1 and 2 had completely garbage combat systems, even compared to the jank of Fallout 3/New Vegas. I won't defend Elder Scrolls because I hate the combat system in that game but it's too early to say that there haven't been any refinements to the combat in FO4 because you haven't even played it.

Disappointed no Persona 5 or Galak-Z (worried this game aint coming out). Hopefully, Atlus actually shows us something before TGS.
