First, I think the hype is real, and people are generally eager for it.
Me? The game lost me as soon as it became a 1st person pov. I don’t like playing games like that. Yeah, you could say it’s a trivial reason, but to me it’s a big deal. If I’m going through the trouble of creating a character, I want to see that character. Too many little things like that have me uninterested.
As far as your list goes?
Don’t get me fucking started on No Man’s Sky…..I still want my $50 back for that utter piece of shit.
