Sometimes people keep playing in hopes that things will find their stride or simply get better.
I myself have kept playing games I didn't particularly enjoy because I knew other people did, and I wanted to make sure it wasn't just me sizing it up too early and not giving it a fair shake.
Your reply isn't really fair.
You're not crazy.
Games like this are what I cornily refer to as "PlayStation magic." Xbox has lacked this "magic" for such a long time now.
Microsoft desperately need to make new magic; I want to feel the way I felt playing Halo CE for the first time. They need brand new, revolutionary, heavy hitting games - it's not enough to just make new IPS now.
I always said they had the means and the talent but maybe they don't anymore. But, I realize ...
Guerrilla Games delivering astonishing results once again.
I've been a fan of these guys for a long time now and they've never let me down.
Oh brother.
I assume a PS5 60 fps patch will coincide with the PC release, if not before.
I hope this is the game that pushes me to buy a Series X. I really do want one, but I want a reason to buy one first.
The only part I didn't really care for was the synagogue moment.
Naughty Dog assumes of the player that they're uneducated and bigoted and therefore it is incumbent upon them to give us a brief holocaust lesson. It's a bit insulting. I'll survive because my people yada, yada, yada. Yeah, don't need it, Naughty Dog.
That aside I thought the game was fantastic. Really enjoyed Abby and Lev; some really fantastic moments with those two. ...
They're FREAKERS, got it?
Your entire post comes off as extremely patronizing.
It's an open-world checklist - I would say that makes it something like a "Ubisoft" game.
It's a grind for some - your opinion isn't the only one and it isn't the only one that matters.
Just because people don't like certain aspects of the game doesn't mean they're not paying attention - it probably just means they didn't like it.
Never personally had...

"You contradict yourself"
I think the game is good but gets more praise than it deserves. I explained that well enough.
"so i dont buy this nonsensical clickbait title , clearly the reviewer doesnt know what he is talking about It most certainly is a good game and thats why it gets praise not "perfectly average".
Your opinion versus his - nothing more.
"There are honestly only so many bases I can clear of raiders, scraps to scrounge, things to craft, treasures to check off on the long list before I feel like it is all meaningless. I also think this feeling is especially exacerbated because I’ve played all these other great open-world games in the past with the exact same side missions."
That's a legitimate feeling.
I personally felt the game had great visuals and a good story with a certai...
Or a pogo stick
Black Ops Cold War is just a smidge under 200GB now.
Ridiculous.
Just do it... delete Black Ops Cold War.
You'll get so much space back and you'll be oh so glad you did.
That's good, but like I said, it's not the numbers I have a problem with, but the idea that DLC is "supposed to" be an extension of the main game storywise.
I would give PS5's launch effort a B+ at this juncture. By launch effort I simply mean they've put forth a good faith effort to deliver new, exciting material. So, commendable and admirable effort by Sony.
While I respect what Xbox has brought, I don't respect the lack of what they haven't.
FPS boost is nice, but new games please. New games and new franchises.
I didn't know DLC was "supposed" to tie back into the main game.
Don't get me wrong, if they think it's a 5.0, that's fine, but the reasoning is unsound and stupid.

Not that I'm apologizing for Ubi - they're awful, but their latest patch seemed to fix a batch of corrupted saved games where I had made the most progress.
I was finally able to go back to Norway without my PS5 hard crashing and beat the orlog dude there and get the platinum.
Truly one of the buggiest games I've ever played.
Didn't 343 say that they canonized him?
