MS literally gave them hundreds of millions of dollars to pay their salaries for years while they made games and they didn't do anything. You're telling me they spent 400 million on starfield between 500 employees and that was the best they could do? They obviously spent months not working on the game
>>
>>743855956
I don't think you understand how a budget works anon.
But even then, for the sake of argument, lets assume 400 million dollars was spent 100% on salaries, and everyone got an equal cut.
$400,000,000 divided by 500 people, over the 8 years of development would mean everyone would have only gotten paid $100,000 a year. Now the canadian tax takes what it takes, whatever benefits you have, and you're getting 6 figures take home.
And again, that is assuming everyone gets paid evenly, and 100% of the budget is spent on salaries - which would be a silly thing to fucking do.

The brain never stop developing, that's a myth. That's how neurons work. Even when it stops growing, neurons still form new connections all the time. Otherwise you'd be like that guy who got a botched lobotomy and couldn't remember things that happened more than a few minutes ago.

The first time you play the game, she seems fine enough, but Persona 5 does this great thing where it manages to reduce your brain's capacity for deeper thought until after you beat the game. It's on the second playthrough, and after doing her social link, that you realize just how much of a mary sue she actually is. She's also just kind of... not a very good person at all. Neither is her older sister, but if I'm being honest, while I liked her the first go around, after I replayed and bothered to analyze what was on screen beyond the honeymoon period that somehow lasts the entire game, I realized just how shoehorned she is. She's the Marie equivalent, and she wasn't even added in after the fact. The game wants you to pair your character with her so badly, they really try to spin the whole "second in command" thing with her being "the brains" despite being pretty retarded. I could go on, but you get the point.

I honestly don't think any video game matches the LOTR films for that specific category niche OP

They are two different medias for one.
For example how would a meta experience like the individual relative experience of the "playing of a game" match the audio-visual-narrative inferential exposition of watching a film; from the cinematography, costumes, script, lighting, aesthetic, tone, direction, props, and set work to the final overall presentation post-cutting room floor?

I don't think you can adequately compare the two without a fair degree of mental gymnastics and quasi-schizophrenic "vibe-type" rhetoric.
Explaining this dichotomy using verbal language is already taxing enough

I always see this in Terraria. Mods that build houses and arenas for you, make the boss summon items unlimited use, have NPCs sell potions, instant hellevators, mining entire sections of ore in one hit
It's all labelled as mere "Quality of Life", and I think the people using these mods are deluded enough to believe it.

Unless you're playing a sandbox game to achieve a concrete, predefined goal, creativity needs inspiration to spark discipline. "Wanting to paint" isn't enough to generate a unique experience that passive content feeds can give.

Best thing to do is dopamine detox. Take out the power cord from your router (I like to leave mine at work so I don't betray myself) and just be bored. Obviously you could touch grass, but, you know. You brain will come up with plenty of ideas if you just pull it away from hyperstimulation for 20 minutes.

Okay, since their last original souls game.
I'm not counting the ER DLC because it's not an original game and Nightreign isn't a souls game. It doesn't have the same atmosphere as a real souls game and is basically just fortnite souls edition. It has been some time since they last released a souls game with an original concept.
