Comment on Ludonarrative Harmony: what makes games unique as a medium
Coelacanth@feddit.nu 1 day agoAlso after committing literal genocide of O’Driscolls and even sheriffs every main mission and tallying up a kill count in the literal thousands you snap back into camp post mission and “you’re a good man, Arthur Morgan”.

That’s his whole schtick though, I bet 90% of people end up with the “good” ending and it rings hollow and everything just feels like his chickens coming home to roost. I really into the Arthur morgan/Joel from last of us type: sympathetic but ultimately shitty character getting what they deserve and it feels fair but still sad. Fucking brilliant story telling in both cases.
P.s. I totally agree that the gunfights are almost always immersion breaking.

Like the other commenter said: intense gunfights versus one up to a handful gunmen at most would have been the perfect match for the storytelling instead of the super wacky over the top arcadey shooting galleries we have instead.

Yes. It felt very state fair bb gun shooting gallery.
