    Cyberpunk is basically futuristic GTA in a first person view, saints row 4 was basically GTA with superpowers, spiderman is basically GTA as Spider-Man

    Even in this one format, there’s endless room for creativity and innovation. It’s a formula for a fun game…

    But where I loved cyberpunk, watchdogs was similar in many ways and I just couldn’t get into it

    The problem is that they want to shove slop in proven molds and get a winning game. It’s still slop

      That’s basically what I meant but you fleshed it out more.

      Yeah, there probably is more that can be tried and maybe I’m being unkind to the format. Its not the formats fault.
