Everything WRONG with NPCs in STALKER 2 | Comparison & Review
This video is a part of a large stalker 2 review I'm working on.
When discussing NPCs in stalker 2, everyone considers A life to be the biggest problem and while that is correct, many other missing features get ignored and forgotten, so instead we’re going…

My Biggest Problem With Cyberpunk 2077
My biggest problem with Cyberpunk 2077 is its ludonarrative dissonance. In this video I argue why. The fact that this is really my biggest gripe with the game as a whole I think shows how much I enjoy the game, all things considered.

Can you imagine such a success of a narrative game, despite the failure of Telltale, the fall of Life is Strange, and so on?

There's no way to tell about We Happy Few without spoilers, so I'll just remind you it's on sale:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/320240/We_Happy_Few/
The game is huge: three main protagonists with their own chapters and interconnected stories + some extra ones in DLCs. I'm still not even halfway through.
Constant survival, when the character has to sleep, eat, drink, dress accordingly to each type of places, and such. You learn to lock the doors, switch costumes, plan every move.
And typical "multiple options" to solve most of the problems: stealth, combat, faking your access, and such.
The writing is good, every story is heartbreaking, a lot of things kicks you out of nowhere. I just dropped it just to breathe a bit.
