Someone who finally understands. It was an average game, but never worth whatever $50/$60 it was at launch.

but the combat was objectively boring and so much was out of your control. Your abilities weren't interesting and most of the time you never had enough PP for anything cool. You were only cool in the last quarter of the game where you got powerful Persona and read a guide on fusions.

Deadly Premonition has the presentation of a family car wreck and the gameplay of a PS2 launch title.

Anon you clearly have autism and can not identify social cues, you most likely made assumptions on image alone have not even played those games. Also David Cage games are more about Presentation than substance not style.

Splatoon lacks any gamemode varities or styles of play

>>386093412

You can't run in Grim Fandango. The character has to be directly by an object or NPC to interact with it.

>Okami

I haven't played BotW, but for me it's the best Zelda yet.

>Psychonauts

You're a fucking idiot.

I've never even played another one of his games, but Psychonauts is legit a great game, and it oozes creativity.

Sprung was pretty in-depth for a visual novel

>nice presentation but lackluster gameplay
okay
>style over substance
That's where you're wrong. The lackluster gameplay has a narrative purpose. You can't say that just because the gameplay isn't great that there's no substance to it in terms of the bigger picture.

>>386080050
>>386095989
Also, you have games like D4, Farenheit, Grim Fandango, Hotel Dusk, A Wolf Among Us, Heavy Rain, and LA Noire on this. They're adventure games, they don't need gameplay because it's not their purpose.

>>386095989
>The lackluster gameplay has a narrative purpose

Does that have anything to do with that huge text about the game's story? I'm not even sure if that shit is canon or not.

>>386095989

And the Margaret Moonlight fight was purposely bad as a commentary on boss fights.

>>386096270
The game is about East/West relations. The West favours non-linear games that have an open world and freedom to explore while the East is into more linear games. The game purposely restricts movement options in order to alienate the Western audience.

Presentation is substance, you dumb turd. And "style over substance" isn't some catch-all criticism that can be applied to any type of media, it's a type of logical fallacy wherein you use excessively verbose language to obfuscate your argument. If you use "style over substance" in reference to a piece of media, you are a fucking pseud.

Game looks and feel nice. Lots of detail goes into atmosphere, but the gameplay isn't very polished

>>386099352
The game is easy. What the fuck are you talking about? You might have to do that in HM2, but HM1 doesn't require memorization in the slightest.
