I have the game installing. I very much dislike games that waste my time so I'm really interested to see just what I'm getting myself in to. I also see that nnodley is playing it.


I jumped into MGSV purely because of all the positive impressions even though I didn't know anything about the game. Ended up being one of my favorite games.

I don't remember exactly what pushed me towards buying BOTW but my opinion was so varied over time haha. I liked it a lot, then I did the town building quest and hated it, then 6 months went by, then I got around to finishing it and liked it a lot again, and then recently I've just been hanging out in the world doing late game content and loving it. Might be my favorite game ever too.
Well it seems like if the gameplay grabs you and immerses you then it won't feel like its wasting your time, as every moment is meaningful (once you get through the classic Kojima cutscene-heavy opening few hours anyway). But if it doesn't click with you it will just feel super boring and a complete waste of time.

Woah, I remember when you were fairly negative on BOTW, I don't think my mind's ever changed on a game that much ;D . Only time I can think of something similar was when I was playing RDR2 and the slow early pace and annoying controls were putting me off for the first 10-20 hours before it clicked and became incredible.
