Cyberpunk is kind of a modern gaming tragedy in that it is so, so good, but it has the potential to be so much more, maybe the greatest ever.

I love Phantasy Star IV and think it is one the best RPGs ever, but its replayability was a step down from Phantasy Star II.
I love Shining Force II but I find the character balance not great as some characters are too weak, despite any amount of work you invest in them. Thankfully there are a ton of hacks for this game to extend the playability further, including a randomizer.
I love Shining Force I but some characters joining end game on very low levels is super lame. Should have put them at a high level before promotion, not so low (Alef, Torasu, Adam. Bleu is a bit more manageable).

Yeah, I kind of wish it was the same length as the first, if not a few hours longer.

Wonderful 101:
The game doesn't do a good job teaching the player how to play
When exploring the camera is often too far away, when fighting it feels a bit too close
Like almost all platinum games, most parts where it deviates from the core gameplay to switch over to some gimmicky minigame it suck

Love the combat of FFVII Remake, but the ridiculously on-rails linear gameplay can get so annoying. Or when you have to slowly walk forward for like a minute but can't run.

Oh also:
Halo 3:
The final boss and ending segment suck. Earlier in the game when you fight the giant crab mech thingy it makes you wonder what crazy thing they'll do for the ending.
Then you get there and it's a small flying orb, and a short ride with your Warthog through some crumbling platforms
Dark Souls 3:
While I love the improved combat, a lot of the bosses and it has some of the coolest areas in the franchise. It also feels very samey a lot of time, you can tell they were running low on ideas for new locations.
Half of the game feels like "been there done that". The ruined castle with dragons, the swamp, the catacombs, the prision like area, etc.
The Witcher 3:
I wish there was more in terms of build variety and customization. It's a great RPG in terms of story, but gameplay wise I feel like everyone had sort of the same experience.

Metroid Prime's respawning enemies can sometimes be a big pain in the ass when you need to go through the same rooms about a hundred times. At least make them respawn only after a few hours, or change the types of enemies in a room every time (some rooms change enemies later on, but not many, and those new ones still respawn the same way all the time).
Which leads to the other big problem: backtracking and sense of direction can feel unintuitive for some chunks of the game. Also, you can progress about two thirds of an area and realize you don't have the tool to keep going, and now you have to go all the way back etc.
Luckily the music is so good and world so cool to explore, these problems aren't as bad as they should be

Banjo-Kazooie, Rusty Bucket Bay is only a 9.5/10 in an otherwise sea of perfection.
OOT - the owl speaks in riddles and repeats himself whether you press ‘understood’ or ‘yes’.
TotK - the dungeons still aren’t dungeons.
Dark Souls - not as tight as DeS IMO, the lack of linearity starts to hurt it at some point in the story.
Elden Ring - same again, had to refer to the internet at times to see where I should be heading.

Cyberpunk 2077 needs more side activities that does not involve merc work. Get a job managing a cafe or a braindance studio.

Yup. I got such a stinkeye when my wife saw me playing it recently. I'm so used to Japanese games that I barely register that kind of thing, but that did make me realise what was on the screen lol.

Yeah. More interiors open up no reason (there are a couple already - I guess they are remnants of abandoned missions) would be good too. But what I'd really LOVE to see is more interaction between civilians. Bumping into each other, talking as they walk, etc. Night City is a lot better than it was in this respect, but man, just adding little things like that would make it feel so much more alive. Rockstar really mastered this. I don't know why games companies can't ditch a few missions to free up resources for working on that kind of thing. It adds so much.
The new rail system is such a let down because it shows how this is missing in stark relief.
I guess AI tools will really help in this respect soon.

I hate that Zelda A Link To The Past still hasn't be remade.
Ok sorry, I cheated.

In Digimon World PS1, you cannot officially get Megas as that evolution level doesn't exists so some of the Megas are treated as Ultimate (Phoenixmon, MetalEtemon, HerculesKabuterimon, etc) and that bothers me for some reason.

I initially read this as “Adam Sandler” and I was immediately convinced to buy the game.

Definitely check out Gloomwood. Closest we've come to the greatness of Thief 2. I played the first map just to get hyped and then decided to shelve it until Early Access it over. Certainly one of my most anticipated releases. Hoping on 2025.

Witcher 3 - game is average without using so many mods that they take up more storage space than the game itself.
Mass Effect 2 - game doesnt matter, almost nothing happens in the game, you can play Mass Effect 1 and 3 and you wont even be able to tell that there was supposed to be a game set between those.
Doom Eternal - half of the enemies take literaly zero damage from most guns, reducing your damage to 0 instead of reducing it by like 90% is the most annoying shit ive seen in a great game.

OG Demon's Souls on PS3: Making pure bladestone an ultra rare drop that you can only get from two enemies in the game was a nonsensical decision. It is not even like the Sharp upgrade tree is overpowered or anything, the shit you need to finish it is just rare for no reason.
Literally over 30 hours of doing the same two runs at the shrine of storms in New Game++ just to try and get it. Pure black world tendency, soulsucker, the whole bit. Finally got the non black phantom skeleton to drop it.
Fortunately in the remake it is nowhere near as rare. Got two within 16 hours on my first playthrough without even expecting to and I had only recently even been doing runs at the shrine.

Geralt's bitch ass can fight off a pack of goblins while drinking multiple potions but corpses when he jumps off a 3ft cliff.

Tears of the Kingdom:
The rest of the game is so deep, and layered, and then there's the side quests.
They were better than BOTW, but not by much.
