nothing will change this generation, it will get worse. Gameplay will get less and less important to the aaa developers....

I so love when people push a false dichotomy in order to further their own agenda.  As we all know, it is physically impossible to have a great story and good gameplay in the same game.  Simply can't be done.  I think Newton made a Law about it.

Of course, we haven't even seen the gameplay from The Order yet but what does that matter?


Never said anything about that. But games like this have almost no replay value. I just can't take it anymore millions of shooters and  millions of story driven cinematic games this new gen. atleast it looks like it (From AAA dev's). Also you can't deny that the gameplay often is behind cause of concentrating too much on movie bullsh*t.

So, I'm assuming you haven't played The Last Of Us? 

and what did Last of Us in the gameplay department add? Nothing new, exactly.


It's not that it has to do anything new, it's that it takes things that have been done in other games, done before, combines them, and does them SO DAMN GOOD. I found The Last Of Us to be phenominal in not only the story, where it shines, but in the gameplay as well.

1.) The game was far less linear than the Uncharted games, but still directed you in order to support the excellent story.

2.) The gameplay mechanics were clearly immensely polished.

3.) The combat was steller, being able to asses the situation and deal with your enemies in a wide variety of ways.

4.) I absolutely LOVED the stealth aspect to the game, and what's cool about it is such a style of gameplay was completely optional.

5.) The real-time crafting system as well as resource management was, IMO, well executed. 

I could go on, but what's the point? All I'm trying to say is, innovation and excellent gameplay still exists in big blockbuster AAA games, however when your focusing on the generic COD's, the games that push out the same nonsense every year, you're going to blind yourself from the gems that still make gaming so great. 


I never said that the gameplay is bad, but when people are praising it as the best game ever I actually look for more then the typical polished experience I saw like 5 games ago. I don't know what's so hard to understand about my opinion. Doesn't affect the opinions of you guys in the slightest "Oh no, someony doesn't appreciate the game enough, kill him!" Hypocrites.
