These reviews are not objective. This is not the perfect game, nor do I really think the perfect game exists, but if I could describe the perfect game, it'd be the one that changes me most as a person. Something that Twilight Princess has done to me in ways I still can't fully describe. Reviewing this game properly, putting my heart out there and answering why it means so much to me is my whale. I can't do it.

This game is not perfect, the gameplay can be clunky and bugs can be frequent, it's not the most technically advanced game by far. Though it does have something special about it. Soul, there is more creativity in one random sidequest than there is in some entire games that came out in 2023. Every little detail is bursting with possibility and D&D enchantment. All stemming from a core belief in player freedom, and for that, it will always be a 5/5 for me.

Think of all the reasons that made the last one great. Think of the noir aesthetics, think of the examination of the cycle of violence, and think of the deep look into max's brain. Now throw that all away for melodramatic speeches about women a new coat of paint and the same gameplay. This game lost everything that made max Payne 1 so charming and interesting, it's only saving grace being the same fun gameplay. AND I WILL NOT FORGIVE THAT MASCOT SECTION YOU FUCKS
