      The writing quality in games has improved so much that Cage games honestly feel behind in the narrative focused genre _ and that since after the release of heavy rain, even though that had some hilariously bad stuff as well. It did have some so bad it's good feel that was occasionally a lot of fun.

      Chris Winslow OG God of War/Major League = completely over the top, hyped exaggerated, super indulgent, a little misogynistic, don’t think too hard about it, just game some old hack n slash/baseball fun.
      New God of War/Field of Dreams = a hyper sincere, thoughtful, almost saccharine, telling of a hack n slash/baseball story from a completely different philosophical perspective that is nothing like previous instalments save for the most basic premise of hack n slash/baseball.

    I dislike when gaming personalities say "I get it". Do you really? Games are a medium made for you to interact with. Yet people see trailers or play it for a hour then say I get what they are going for. I feel it's ok to say this isn't for me but saying you get it without truly experiencing it is not fair. I've seen podcasts with people playing a hour of Divinity 2 then critique it. That's just crazy to me. Everyone's opinion is different but it's just how I feel about it.

    • @Kmaitland89
      @Kmaitland89 5 лет назад +4

      I agree with you. Some games you really can't understand tell you finish it. I mean I would say I didn't understand what RDR2 was trying to do with it's story tell 40 hours in. Seriously I remember thinking I'm more than halfway done I just don't get it. Then literally an hour later I got it. Point being it can take certain games the entire length of it to understand what it's trying to do and to say you got something without that effort is lame.

    Octopath Traveler and Monster Hunter World were my favorites. 2018 was a year the KFG group might look back as the best, in their perspective. Anyone's free to disagree, but 2018 appears to me to push boundaries in narrative storytelling like in God of War, Spider Man, or RDR2 but not as strong in the same manner as 2017 where Nier Automata, Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, Persona 5, Nioh, Cuphead, Horizon Zero Dawn, Resident Evil 7, or Yakuza 0 were utter masterful experiences in terms of gameplay, and some narrative. That's why I prefer 2017 over 2018.

    4. Spiderman
    5. Celeste
    6. Detroit Become Human
    7. Hollow Knight
    8. Octopath Traveler & Dragon Quest 11 (I like them both equally for almost the same reasons)
    9. Torna: The Golden Country
    10. Dragon Ball Fighterz
    Honarable mentions: A Way Out, Dead Cells, Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee, Batman Telltale: The Enemy Within.
    Excluding remasters and remakes like Shadow of the C., Bayonetta 2 and DKCTF (which would all be on the list).
    Personally, I think 2017 had fewer amazing games in terms of sheer quantity, but some of them outperformed 2018 games. It had two of my new favorite games of all time: Persona 5 and Breath Of The Wild. The Switch came out last year too and had one of the best launch years ever for Nintendo.
    2018 brought God Of War, which is now my second favorite PS4 exclusive with Spiderman right behind it and Smash Bros Ultimate which is probably the best fighting game ever.
    So at the end of the day, I can't disagree with 2018 being better than 2017, because of the sheer quantity of good shit.

      Both Fortnite and Rainbow didn't get traction until way farther down the line than a month.

      Also he did that thing again where he says nobody wants something when usually the majority do when he said he would stop saying that.
      Sorry didn't mean to ramble. It seems like I'm hating on Tim but I'm just confused about his view on the game especially when he says it's gonna end up being his favorite game of all time.

    World of light is fun and polished. The mechanics matter. Especially on hard mode. It is meant to played in increments, not long sessions. Sure you can autopick what the game recommends, but it's not always the BEST option. It allows you to choose. Sure you can phone it in, but I appreciate the choice and personalized challenges. Looking back on the event mode from earlier entries-- I promise you they aren't as good as you remember.

      The story telling was too ambiguous for Greg, he prefers a heros tale. The game itself is not going to draw people in - it just isn't very good - but even then he leans towards snappy, checklist stuff; RDR2 isn't that. I imagine Tim was just put off by the gameplay problems.

    Constructive criticism: You guys are, and your KFG content is, I would say, on the whole quite 'family friendly', except the occasional times Greg & Tim drop these totally pointless F-bombs which alway sound jarring to me, like two guilty schoolboys who no longer have IGN telling them rules, eg it's never worth it, or even funny, unlike say, Jim Sterling content which is naturally more comedic, more adult oriented (though not solely) but comes across well, as it's Jim's natural personality and his natural talent, using comedy timing etc. Let's be honest, KFG is mainly lightweight gaming-based popcorn chat, skewed towards persuading younger audiences (some who may be at the phase in life where they think swearing is really cool) to spend their parent's money on Patreon KF stretch goals to show loyalty to you guys. So, just a request to maybe consider keeping your podcasts non-explicit, it just doesn't naturally fit your content imo. Or at least bleep it out to keep your channel clean, more mainstream, (more fundable? $$$), which I'm sure is what you're aiming for in the long run, based on your recent Patreon push/begging extravaganza. Or just mark all your content as explicit and go full-on making your embarrassing potty mouth moments actually worth it or even funny.

It had one good twists at the end but other than that it was predictable. A lot of the suits were too similar, the side quests were repetitive and finally the web swinging didn't feel right, I think they should of made it more physics based(which I swear they said it would be, could be wrong though) rather than momentum based
