i am so fucking tired of every game being sekiro. please god can one acton game come out where you do something besides read animations and deflect on the right key frames. can one historical game about the tokugawa shogunate have some personality to it and not be more boring than reading a book about the actual events. can one open world game come out and have shit to do in it thats fun and beneficial for more than just clearing icons and getting bigger numbers. anyway, Like a Dragon: Ishin! is available now on digital storefronts everywhere

the "friction" in this game is hotly debated but i think a lot of it stems from this fact that this game is pretty fundamentally flawed on a structural level. the insanely stunted fast travel is done entirely on purpose not to instill a sense of adventure in the player, but because walking across dirt roads and fighting the same three enemies is literally the meat of the game. that is the gameplay, and if you don't REALLY fuck with it then you have my pass to give up on it without feeling like you're losing out on your gamer badge of honor. fighting guys does feel really good but its hard not to feel like -- yet again -- im just playing the demo for the actual dragons dogma.
cant say that i or anybody else should be disappointed because a lotta folks are gonna come to find out thats just what dragons dogma is, but if this game is going to continue that tradition then i gotta come to the same conclusion i think a lot of people come to: dragons dogma is really just ok

i got nothin funny to say. you can tell P Studio were bummed the fuck out after persona 3 because its the opposite of that game in every way but still great because of how strongly it distinctifies itself. had me smilin' and laughin the whole time because its a game that is above all else filled with joy and love. there is some intense shit here but it gets to that point because the rest of it is so damn wonderful. truly special little thing

a game so full of life as this doesnt come around frequently and its important to indulge every moment with it. skipping the “side attractions” in this game is kind of antithetical to the point of it. not getting a 5-star resort as ichiban or tying up the loose ends in kiryu’s life runs counter to the two things that matter most to them, consciously or not. enjoy every moment you have on things that may seem pointless now because those moments are not infinite. feel alive while you still are
