minus-squareTheLunatickle@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up16arrow-down2·2 days agoFinal fantasy, FIFA, GTA, CoD, Modern warfare and Persona are the ones that spring to mind for me.
minus-squarehumanoidchaos@lemmy.cif.sulinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 day agoFinal Fantasy is about atmosphere and presentation above all else. Their production values are some of the highest in the industry. It’s a shame so much of it was used on turn-based game, but they’ve since pivoted to action combat and now we can get a balance.
minus-squareDragomus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down1·2 days agoI was going to suggest CoD as well … the whole series is mostly a carbon copy of the previous version. Let alone the gameplay is "run for 30 seconds, die, respawn and repeat.
