Should I get RE6 or RE7?
Loved 4 but hated 5 and the classics are all great to me.
So which new RE game should I get? 6 or 7.

Cancelled games that you wish were made

I wish the original Rayman 4 was made.

Those concept arts look amazing.

There are games, like DD for example, that you would call a flawed gem. Game that suffered from publisher meddling, monetary and time limitations. For TW3 I propose a new term. Ruined gem. A great game that was ruined by retarded design decisions.
Enhanced edition when?

>Stories are the most important part of games

Sometimes I wish I could see what people see in these games.

Anytime someone says games should focus on being games they get bombarded with, "I guess you've never played a JRPG before ;)" or "Story makes a game worth playing. Pure gameplay is for MP"

I just wish my standards were lower because JRPGs are the last thing I'd use to signify any type of narrative quality. Or that the medium based around playing games should not do the thing it's best at.

It pains me how wanting games to focus on being games is a bad thing. People will cite shit like LiS or P5 as proof of how there's stories only games can tell. Meanwhile, CYOA books/movies exist and P5's story would fit right in with your typical YA fantasy.

I just want games to be games. I'm sick of having to hunt for games that focus on being games.

>slowly coming to the realization that I hate loot systems

>modern games just contain so much worthless loot

I just want pick ups and upgrades to be meaningful.... Less quantity and more quality. You guys know Conan the Barbarian (the Arnold version)? He falls in a pit and finds a fucking RAD sword. It's a badass moment and I feel a solid RPG could handle loot in similar ways. Why would he pick up every piss poor weapon he finds off of every bandit he kills? He wouldn't, because he earned his weapon through adventure; not to mention carrying that insane magnitude of garbage makes zero sense whatsoever.
