I'll start. pokemon. doesn't matter if the game's old or new I just can't get into how it plays. idk the gameplay just gets old to me pretty quickly, palworld is an upgrade in every way tbh
Up until Breath of the Wild, maybe Skyward Sword, the Zelda series didn't shy away from being a bit fucked up. There's an entire torture-themed dungeon in Ocarina of Time. Majora's Mask is an exploration of impending doom, Twilight Princess features a botched execution. These games used to have characters in actual danger, scary enemies, confronting themes...Breath of the Wild is post apocalyptic and everyone is just happy clappy.
