Lack of free cloud saves is a non-starter. Why spend hundreds of hours on a save that can be gone at a moment’s notice?

SteposVenzny,

Because those hundreds of hours are spent enjoying yourself.

Wolf314159,

Same reason anyone has played any of the thousands of games that predate “the cloud” or games that don’t even have a save feature. Cloud saves? No thanks, never have, maybe never will.

Besides, if you’re not paying for the service, you’re the product not the consumer.

Newsteinleo,

Back in my day, you didn’t even have game saves. You beat Mario 3 in one sitting or you started over, and we liked it!

endeavor,

I remember playing super mario 6 golden coins 20 times and speedrunning it before I knew that was a thing. Nowardays I drop a game if it feels too generic and wonder why I have nothing to play.

Voice acting? Reject modernity, embrace Dwarf Fortress.

Elevator7009,

embrace !crpg, !visualnovels, and !otomegames, except you mash past all the voice acting because you can read faster than the lines are acted out

Interesting, for me TotK felt vastly superior to BotW. I played a lot-ish of BotW but after I was done with the story, I pretty much dropped it. TotK I obsessed over for weeks. The story made me so emotional and immersed at points that I count the whole experience amongst my top five for gaming.

I just introduced my kids to it. It’s a classic.

Alan Wake 2 is very x-files/zany in its own way. They don’t play it as serious in some ways.

I’m currently playing and old obscure RPG called Evil Islands, I bought it on GOG. Now, you might be wondering how on earth did I come upon this game? Back in the old days, gaming magazines had a CD filled with game demos, and young me replayed the Evil Islands demo quite a few times. I never actually played the complete game, so when I saw it on sale on GOG I thought - why not play it for old times sake :). The game itself is… different. Weird leveling/skill system, relys on stealth and save scumming a lot, dialogues and story are so-so, but I’m having fun playing it.

System Shock 2. I’m basically also holding off on playing the SS1 remake until I hear official confirmation that the sequel is getting the same treatment.

The sequel is just getting a Remaster, not a Remake. SS1 was a full remake, SS2 is just a remaster. No idea if they plan on giving it the SS1 treatment, and I don’t really care as long as multiplayer works in the remaster.

JohnEdwa,

It’s getting a remaster, but also maybe a remake at some point.

Though it doesn’t need a remake nearly as badly as SS did, the remaster could get it pretty close already.

Twilight princess got a HD remaster though.

Makes sense, though unlike zero mission i suspect it would essentially be a graphical update more than a remake. Gameplay-wise dread isn’t that different from super

I would never hold off on playing a game for a remake/remaster.

I love my oldies.

Same. I just setup RomM and I’m having fun playing snes and arcade games in my browser.

Dragon Age: Origins is also a master class in this vain.

All the dragon Age games, really.

Shayeta,

Dragon age 2? Sure. Inquisition? Not really. The unspeakable one? Hell no.

Having just played Veilguard and Origins back to back, that’s a hard disagree from me. The voice acting in Veilguard was top notch. 🤷

BG3 is definitely one of those games with good (even great) voice acting. But there are more of them out there.

RDR2 has some of the best writing and acting performances I’ve ever encountered in a game. The Last of Us is in a similar vein. The Uncharted series has some of my favourite voice acting, especially Claudia Black (Chloe) and of course Nolan North (Nathan).

Claudia Black also voices Morrigan in Dragon Age Origins, which is chock full of stellar voice performances. I’d argue that Dragon Age 2 and even Inquisition had some memorable performances but The Veilguard sucked.
