Uncharted 4 had almost inexplicably lazy writing. They gave them so much build up just to not meaningfully address any of the conflicts between the characters. I mean, they do address it but in really quick and lazy ways.

This is why Death Stranding is good. Some of its writing is just as dumb and hamfisted as Naughty Dog's but it still manages to be really impactful because it's not relentlessly one-note. "Before you I was like any other Cliff" is both dumb as hell and genuinely a great moment, and you didn't have to plod through hours of brutality to get there.

Death Stranding is literally the positive cooperation based post apocalyptic game pined for a few pages back. I love how insanely steep and appropriate the penalty is for killing anyone in that game.

I'm going to spoil ghost of tsushima. The ending is some real Deus ex Machina bullshit.

I had to look it up, and you're right, she's apparently 20 in RE4. Wow. For the longest time I legit thought for some reason she was 16 or 17 in RE4.

I mean the joke in that scene was also Leon going "Nooooo thanks. I'd rather not be in prison"

are you kidding? almost every male character is body builder buff. i guess because almost every lead actor in a movie is now juicing peoples brains just don't notice it anymore in video games/film.

I kinda feel the industry has been moving away from this for awhile. Like it's an even bigger power fantasy to have a guy with a normal dadbod but a complete badass because guess who has dadbods these days and plays games. Hell, even loving Gears of War has a normal sized lead now.

If your face didn't light up like Aerith's at the Honey Bee Inn then I'm sorry friend, but your brain's been taken over by fungi
