it s movie game that impersonates a better franchise.
By movie game you mean you missed the gameplay in it?
I mean older game had better gameplay cause they didn't need to be another 3rd person cinematic sony exclusive.
I still don't get it and you are not helping to understand.
You said that it's a movie game when it's not.
Now you say the previous titles had better gameplay which is purely subjective.
You also say that old titles didn't need to be 3rd person cinematic games, which is confusing because they just couldn't be at their time even if their creators wanted them to(they most likely did want, in old gows they certainly tried).
You also say that modern games providing 3rd person cinematic experience is the reason you think they have worse gameplay, that's also confusing, it seems you just have some unfounded prejudice over game design.
Personally I think a game can have good gameplay no matter what graphical or whatever direction it's creators choose.
Also it's not a sony exclusive anymore so you can play and enjoy it as much as you want on other platforms.
3rd person scinematic sony exclusive is an expression and that expression apply to gow The old game were different gameplay, style, da and a lot of other stuff. The new one just remind me that tlou was one of the biggest success of the ps3. I dont want all game to be tlou. To be as plain as possible i prefer when the game was man is too angry to die and kill gods than man is sad cause wife is dead and violence is bad. It s a subject that s really inenteresting in the context of gow and putting a fucking kid u must take care off is tiresome. All gow weren't 3rd person even if they tried for one simple reason. It was limiting gameplay. In the new one the gameplay is limited and what did we obtain for that ? Less gameplay that s all. U have snap to target + no range. No more crowd control and distance play. U just snap to target do some stuff and repeat with another target. And after u must listen to the stupid kid saying stupid shit and after you lock in walkable cinematic and after u have bad character doing force expostion. If I wanted that from my game I d play some Chinese gacha that do all of that better. Really some free2play chineese game have more complete and potential in their gameplay than a fucking 300 million game that s only single player. It s litteraly the case of if u dont know better it s not that bad, otherwise it s highly disappointing. Compare to the old one we didn't gain anything that made sens to that license
