What Proper games?.
Like, another HL?, with only one writer from the original. Is that what you few on here really want, a watered down has-bin sequel, that will never live up to it's predecessors?.
Another Left 4 Dead?, when we already have Dying Light, WWZ and many more zombie games coming out yearly now?. What could L$D3 possibly do, that warrants an excellent rating, and worldwide attention, that also happens to set itself, absolutely and completely apart, from what we've already seen and played on this current market.
Again, the same goes for the likes of TF2, what would Tf3 be?. Another samey class based shooter, with a BR mode tacked on the end, like everyone else is doing these days?. Nothing knew or unique there. We've already seen the 9 classes the game has, what else could they add, that warrants it being unique and proper?.
Another Portal?. Another Portal, with yet another set of puzzle rooms, and another robotic villain, with yet another similar robotic monotone voicebox?.
Like, I'm not trying to be sarcy or anything, but I flat out do not see why rehashing and spamming old and existing franchises, somehow warrants as "new and fresh", or "truly unique", especially when we know they are done and dusted games, that have already executed done and dusted game design mechanics, and tropes that even other devs use to this day. I just see zero point in following the Ubisoft initiative, where you let something die for a year or two, then spam the crap out of it over and over until audiences get mad, rinse and repeat. That's Ubisoft's idea, and some people like it, but I personally think it's self destructive and waters down the medium as a whole. it warps people into thinking more of the same is better than once in a lifetime, truly unique or one hit wonder type experiences/games.
Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see
So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"
