This article feels very AI generated to me. Unless It Takes Two is part of the top 5, then it’s only 4 games listed, and the writing seems very stilted. Also talking about R.E.P.O. in 1 paragraph and then saying “Indies are holder their own, too” as it mentions Peak is just shitty formatting.
Thanks for your feedback — it’s appreciated. You’re right to call out the formatting and structure if it felt off to you. To clarify, It Takes Two was mentioned as a standout co-op title but wasn’t counted in the core list, which may have caused some confusion. As for the paragraph about R.E.P.O. leading into the mention of Peak, the intention was to highlight a trend in strong indie showings, but we agree that the transition could have been clearer.
We’ll keep your notes in mind for future edits and aim for smoother flow and better clarity. Thanks again for taking the time to point this out.

Monster Hunter Wilds? Really? With negative reception due to awful performance and even with Capcom admitting its sales were weak?
My PC couldnt even run Wilds at a playable framerate. It still can’t. I dont exactly have a weak rig either. But the game has to run at settings so low that it looks like a Wii port, and with framegen disabled it gets 27 fps in windowed 720p.
AMD 7800X3D, 32GB RAM, multiple 2TB SSDs two of which are NVMe, GTX1080Ti.
I know someone going to try to blame my performance on my 1080Ti, but Wilds is the only game that runs poorly. I play at 1080p only, and disable RayTracing because my GPU doesn’t do RTX well and I don’t need RTX on. Also I cannot afford to upgrade. Even still, Helldivers 2 gets more than 90fps at Ultra settings native 21:9 1080p, Starfield gets 70fps at High settings native (framegen off), Cyberpunk gets more than 90fps on High native. Even Black Myth Wukong and Star Citizen gets at least 60fps with High native settings.
Its literally only Monster Hunter Wilds that gets 27fps at 720p windowed and everything set to low or disabled.
Of note: my 1080Ti is overclocked, watercooled, and has its own dedicated 360mm radiator. Other 1080Tis may have more or less performance values.
Not really on more modern games. Pascal was for example completely broken for Alan Wake 2 because of mesh shaders. Pascal had a good run and was relevant for 8 years, which is pretty much unprecedented for GPUs, but one has to let go.
Split Fiction is great but I think It Takes Two was just a better game all around. Split Fiction was faster paced which was nice, but the little exploration areas in It Takes Two were just wonderful. Lots of little surprises and fun details to find that made it a joy to slow down and just explore and experience some nice environments. Split Fiction was really missing that and while it’s still great, I wish they’d done a bit of that too.
I know in split fiction I saw at least one area with a bunch of things to interact with that were just there to explore. Before that there seemed to be just random things here and there.
Seriously. The Battlefield series is by far my most played series of games with thousands of hours but BF5 really killed my interest and 2042 I purchased but only played like 20 minutes of. I find the Battle Royal stuff incredibly lame too. Part of this is just me aging out of the demographic I suppose, but this seems to be a common sentiment among the rest of the player base as well which is why 2042 flopped so hard.
I would love to go back to the mechanics that made Bad Company 2, BF3, and BF4 (despite their terrible buggyness for the first year or so) so wonderful. The kind of maps that you could play over and over and still have a great time (Operation Metro). Quit trying to copy the mechanics of other games because if I wanted to play like that, I would be playing those games instead.
This is probably all a moot point at this stage as I just find myself drawn to simple games on the Switch like Mario Kart, Kirby and Zelda, the Lego series, and barely ever touch any massive games like this outside of the Soulsborne games (currently gave up on Elden Ring but enjoying the Demons Souls remake)
I’m personally offended you didn’t list BF1942 in your list of fun games. It was broken in so many hilariously fun ways. How much fun is it to be a sniper flying on the wing of a plane? Or suicide bomb a person in a plane only to eject and pop your parachute 1ft above the ground safely? Or to park your tank with the turret inside the door of a spawn point just blasting away?
