Funny that you mention it.
I will not touch a game if it has a daily clock (just puts me in the wrong state of mind). So no Rune Factory 4.
However, I don't mind calendars. Playing Atelier Ayesha last year was a gaming highlight.

- Movieslop game with 80% of playtime being cutscenes
- cash shop items / p2w being showed to you 24/7
- Plot of the game centered around muh feelings "x is le bad" story
- Side view pixel games
- game supposed to be in a historical setting / based on clearly defined settings but devs deciding to add foreign "modern elements for new audiences" like race swapping NPCs in remakes, adding random blacks to a medieval games, half of characters being LGBT or trans
- rollslop games (formsoft souls) where you just iframe roll everything 24/7

For me it's different. I'm okay with super-sexualized themes, but any kind of cringe-tier romance makes my stomach turn.
>uguu, Self-Insert Kun, you're such a kind guy... I think I... like you! ~kyaa~
Another thing that's obnoxious as fuck is when the characters are "playersexual" - they have no identity on their own and will just fall for the main character no matter their sex. I'm looking at you, SoS and Stardew Valley.

>>733765139
i watched a film called Perceval le Gallois 1978 that was so divorced from modern story telling in its narrative that it genuinely felt like i was watching a stage play from the 13th century just for how the minstrels sung songs of that time, the views, temperament and morality were medieval and there was no semblance of any modern linguistic references or handholding for a modern audience. It really felt like you were to give a man from 1000 years ago a movie camera and told him to make his epic.

So when i see vidya games or movies use modern haircuts, iphone face actresses, modern lingo in historic settings and contemporary politics and subtext in period pieces it just makes me think about how sloppy fantasy writing really is when the prose isn't even correct for the Medieval period.
