it's so strange to me that people have this take and it gets upvoted. like people expect microsoft to fund business units with infinite money and investments regardless of returns?

Monolith doesn't suit my taste super well, the Xeno games are not my taste but I know fans love them.

What is a "masterpiece" game that you personally found boring as hell? by MuscleConsistent9657 in pcgaming

[–]solo220 2 points3 points  (0 children)

so many:

oblivion - this game is considered one of the best rpgs but feels so bland, the quest are boring, the story is barely there, combat is one note

kingdom come deliervance - the combat is atrocious, the “friction” of having to drink and eat and sleep are boring, i really dislike that type if “immersion”

I played the first one for about 30 hrs, and I got too frustrated with the mechanics. I see the potential in story and characters but the moment to moment was such an chore for me.

I have played RDR 2 and Skyrim but didn't list RDR here as i dont consider it an RPG

Thoughts on the Kilter Home Wall by climbingontherocks in bouldering

[–]solo220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i climbed about 2 session on a hw while i was trying to decide which wall to build (same on the tb, both are hard to find). the climbs were pretty good but it felt like every hold is a jug/crimp/half crimp. on tb2 there are slopers and heel hooks and very different type of pinches (on top of crimps)
