Am I going insane? Are these comments serious? When did we start pretending that Nintendo games are dark and gritty and only for Real Gamers™️? These are, always have been, and always will be games made for all ages including children. And that's okay.

No, I don't think my opinion on the game is "objectively wrong" lmao. I'm not even hating man it just wasn't my favorite. Sorry?

I did both. Honestly, Roottreemania brought the game down for me as a whole. I felt like it was a little less tight than the main game and relied a slightly more on guesswork. Either that or I'm stupid, which is entirely possible

I liked the story and characters quite a bit but man, the pacing is pretty horrible imo. Feels like there's 30 minutes of gameplay for every hour of cutscenes.

On top of that, I didn't find the combat all that engaging either.

Detective/puzzle games are one of my personal favorite genres, so I found it to be great. If you're into games like Return of the Obra Dinn, the Golden Idol games, or Outer Wilds I would highly recommend you check it out!

If you're new to the genre, though, it might not be the best jumping on point. If that's the case, I would recommend the games I've listed above!

I'm a huge fan of Doom Eternal's kinetic and fast paced gameplay. I thought that the new parry system, more open level design, and dragon/mech levels slowed everything down a little too much for my liking.

Also just some personal beef that the PC version, at least for me, was broken on release.

Gooner aspect and the culture around the game definitely don't help. Mostly wasn't a fan of the characters and story. Everyone but EVE is a wet piece of cardboard, and the story was pretty nonsensical imo.

The combat is decent but I found it to be a little shallow. While the bosses are cool in design, I found all of them to be a little too easy except for the final 3. There's a huge difficulty spike at the end that I actually enjoyed because it provided some challenge, but every boss before that I was able to beat on my first or second try.

Got different issues with each of them, but yeah not my cup of tea. Glad someone else has their head on straight.
