      Fuck yeah.

      The characters, the lore, the places to explore! God I wish I could forget it and play it again for the first time.

    Counterpoint: The AAA game industry and its institutional funders wield vast amounts of capital and are uniquely capable of making big and interesting games that would not be possible for an indie. It is, in fact, worth lamenting the fact that these resources are being squandered, in the same way we should be angered by the way that data centers waste our water.

    Side note: the AAA dudes have only ever played like three games, but touched up and rereleased every year for the past two decades (e.g COD, AC, halo, Skyrim)

      Nothing good comes out of Hollywood the game industry because I only pay attention to the crappy releases!

        The quests can be good or bad, usually pretty basic. But when a good one comes along, it surprises you and is pretty exciting. I’ve enjoyed it quite a bit.
