and my own personal experience; most games I have bought in the past 10 years have been off of recommendations from r/gamingsuggestions before Reddit went to crap and Lemmy came into existence; and even moreso when it is a personal friend recommending things to me.
Mods, feel free to nuke if this feels too close to advertising or better-suited for [email protected] (my own community); I mean it more as a discussion piece but I don’t run the place.
EDIT: The “not” in the title is optional; I’m asking about both successful and failed recommendations.
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?
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

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it’s price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don’t meet the system requirements, or just haven’t had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

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

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.
