Forums - Gaming Discussion - (NakeyJakey) Rockstar's game design is outdated

Outdated, yet still poops on 99% of other titles, wow.



Around the Network

The issue with Rockstar games in general is their mission design, not their game design as a whole in my opinion. I've never been a fan of the mission structure in their games, and its part of the reason why I never liked the original Red Dead Redemption as much as most other people seemed to. They've always been great at telling stories and creating interesting characters, although their attempts at satire in GTA games are quite often very clumsy, but other open world games in the last few years have shown a much better understanding of open world game design in general, and how to put together interesting and engaging missions. The general gameplay mechanics in Rockstar are fine in general, especially for games of this scale, but their missions are often lacking.
