I'm pretty excited about Remedy universe. But t I think I had enough of this Alan Wake 2 type of gameplay. Really hope they go back to Control next. AW2 was pretty fun while it lasted. It can get a little overbearing with it's storytelling as fascinating as the universe is. Saga's portions was actually what I liked to play more but forwarding the story on second playthrough with the mindplace clue gathering really slows things waaaaay down. It would be nice to skip those on second playthrough.
Yakuza games are filled with content but I don't feel like they respect players time. They are usually very poorly paced. As was Like a Dragon. Really long cutscenes, that are filled with repetition about the story told so far and convoluted plot points. If you play just the main story the experience kinda bad. After a long cutscenes you get minimal gameplay, go to the next quest marker, watch a cutscene or enjoy enemy gauntlet. Rinse and repeat. Like A Dragon has also really bad leveling issue. I was trying to hurry to the end but I became underleveled pretty badly. Had to level ground for several hours. I thought we already were over that issue in rpg's. RGG games has preet6 darn good humour and likable characters so does this. But because of afore mentioned pacing issues I tend to drop off from RGG games pretty badly.
Good aspects are from previous two games, and not a lot of evolment in the gameplay aspects. The writing made me low-key almost hate my time with this. Many lines made cringe. Remember when they were talking about taking the trash out in the middle of a dramatic fight. Extremely disappointed with this one.
This is such a bad Ninja Gaiden entry. Every good aspect like the gameplay and couple characters are from previous entries. Every new mechanic, level design, character, enemy design and writing is awful. This has good elements... That are from previous games. Reused assets and mechanics -the game. For that I'll give it half a star, and this isn't literally unplayable so don't want review bomb. This is bad time for fans of previous Ninja Gaidens. Played on PS5 as part of the collection.
