Witcher 3, rdr3. I know they are popular games and all my friends who also like single player rpgs love them but I just can’t with the fixed personality main characters who act in ways that frustrate me. I mean last of us was good but that was more where the player character being forced to be a dick is the main plot point, instead of a thing we are meant to ignore.

Weird to say that of Rdr2 (i think you meant 2) because as the main, like, its fairly big arc that the whole game takes. I can get on board with that being an issue in Witcher3, but like, idk, to some extent is this because as an open world game they cant “force” you to play in a linear evolution?

I never played RDR2 because I played 1 and GTA 4 and I just don’t like how Rockstar games play.

Admittedly I only did the tutorial area and first town after before I lost interest. I did definitely have it pitched to me as a fully open world game which it really isn’t as I would define it. I have been told since that Arthur has a good arc and growth potential but…I guess it just took too long to get to that. It seemed to rely a bit on past game context too that I didn’t have

It is a big and slow arc, and the game is… just… massive. Its a long game.

Same. I reached the first town with no idea what to do, cumbersome controls, and a lot of apathy by this point.
