GTA and Skyrim are some examples where I simply don't see where all the praise comes from.God of War too.
When the biggest talking points for getting Skyrim are mods, that kind of says a lot about the base product.
I mean, nobody said "Get FTL for Captains Edition."
That was a sweet ad on that got plenty of press, but with Skyrim it's mod or go home, to listen to its fans.
Originally posted by QuincyThey are melting over it because its so SO radically different then the previous entries, there are no more set levels, now it's open-world, the combat has been given a face-lift so its no longer just hacking and slashing till you win with no repercussions for ****ing up in combat, it's much harder now, and you have a companion now (your son) who helps you in combat, which was something featured in previous God of War games but was restricted to a certain level or boss fight.
I haven't played it so I'm not sure this counts. But I have no interest in the new God of War everyone seems to be melting over
Every little tiniest detail has been improved in some way, shape, or form.

The combat is hard at the earlier levels before you start getting upgrades, skills and runes. Once 25% into the game, the combat becomes a joke. I had so much XP by the end of it.
It doesn't help that the enemies stay the same throughout the entire game so I wasn't really do anything different. I was using the same techniques I learned at the start of the game.
I had that feeling with Grand Theft Auto 4. I had to will myself to finish it.
However, I played it again and I was totally fine. I'm not sure why.
My favourite thing about Grand Theft Auto is how well they nail the vibe of the game. From Vice City, San Andreas and even GTAV....it's a joy to immerse yourself in the setting. There is nothing that beats driving ridiculous fast while listening to tunes....no other open world game comes close.
