Re: Talking Point: Are You Getting Sick of Sony's Supposedly 'Samey' Approach to Story Telling?

I think the last Sony game I bought was Astro Bot for this exact reason. I am so incredibly bored with Sony's games. Save for Astro Bot, they have all started to blend together in my head as this dark, brooding, over-the-shoulder action-adventure games... and I think I'm done. God of War: Ragnarok was the nail in the coffin for me. I enjoyed GoW (2018), but I couldn't even finish Ragnarok. It was so similar and had so much bloat that I had to turn it off indefinitely. For me, Sony's first-party games aren't fun anymore. They take themselves waaaaaaaay too seriously without really bringing anything truly new to the table from sequel to sequel. And it's just that, more and more sequels and remakes. I'm pretty sure the PS5 will be my last Sony console for this reason.

I got the platinum in GoT, and I loved it, but I'm just not feeling like hopping into this. It looks nice, but I kind of already got my fill of this world from GoT. Maybe if it goes on a deep sale, but I'm pretty burned out on open-world games in general right now.

Re: Preview: Why 007 First Light Is the Most Exciting Game of 2026

I cannot for the life of me get excited about this game. It just looks like another 3D action-adventure AAA game. I don't know if I'm just getting old, but these games all look the same to me now. This looks like Uncharted, and Metal Gear Solid, and Hitman, and Indiana Jones... It's all so boring to me now.

@johnedwin On the contrary. I love a good sequel if it brings added value to the story, characters, gameplay, and experience. I loved The Last of Us Part 2, Persona 5, Rift Apart, the Uncharted series, Guacamelee 2, and Tears of the Kingdom because those games felt like a significant progression and evolution from the previous games. In contrast, one of my least favorite games of this generation is God of War Ragnarok. For me, if felt like I was playing the exact same game again but with worse pacing.

I'm going to need to wait for reviews for this one. If this game differentiate itself enough from Ghost of Tsushima, then yes, I'll be interested. But if this ends up being just more of the same (like God of War Ragnarok, Horizon Forbidden West, and Spider-Man 2) then I'm going to have to pass on this one.
