2 picks for me: Stardew Valley, most boring shit ever, I don't see the appeal, seriously how the hell did that thing sold 20 million copies?

And Witcher 3, I own that game since 2019 and I regret buying it, funny thing is that I've finished Dragon Age 1 and 2, which are kinda same genre but I actually enjoyed those games. I guess the old BioWare sauce carried those games unlike Witcher where there's nothing to enjoy in its massive pointless world.

Same on Witcher III. I'm the target audience of that game - I love RPGs of all kinds, have played all the classic series like TES, Baldurs Gate, Planescape, Icewind Dale, Dragon Age, you name it. I even play ttrpgs multiple times a week.

I wanted to like Witcher III so bad that I forced myself all the way through the game to an optimal ending. But I just never started enjoying it. The world just feels... Flat. Fake. You do exactly what CD Projekt Red envisions or you hit a stone wall of empty game world.

Despite the skill trees and inventory and all of it, it just doesn't feel like an RPG at all. It feels like a Disney ride on rails.

Also Gerardo just a boring ass protagonist, the only cool thing about him is that he's sleazy. But that's it. At that point I better watch porn. Same goes for BG, but that game the main problem is the gameplay

You definitely did not understand Geralt.
