recent: tears of the kingdom, or as i like to call it botw 1.2, its the same thing all over again just with one or two added gimicks, the open world is dead, npcs are boring and nintendo just got away with it like that

not so recent: i cant stand persona 5, joker and his entourage are annoying teenagers, the time management is a horrible gameplay addition and the artstyle is just a visual overstimulation

with that being said,~~ plz dont kill me~~

It's funny, your description of Souls games echoes how I feel about 3rd person action games that aren't made by FromSoft. To me, Dark Souls 1 felt like the crisp combat I had been wanting but never getting from stuff like God of War or the older Monster Hunter games. Bloodborne refined it somewhat, and to this day, that style of 3rd person combat is my favorite.

Crazy how perceptions of a game's controls are so individual. Our difference really illustrates to me how hard it is to nail a game's "feel."

It definitely is! I have a lot of friends who love the souls games and tried to convince me to give it a try over and over again. And one of them speaks about the controls like you do. It was an interesting evening figuring out how different our views of other games were. That's why I love the variety of games. You can never have a game everybody likes or even feels the same for everyone. And that's also why I love threads like these, cause even though it seems like everyone likes X or Y, every game will be disliked by someone.
