I literally finished E33 a couple of hours ago, and while I do think it’s a quality game, I just couldn’t really connect with it on any emotional level. I do like the combat system. It’s fun. But the story just didn’t really grab me. I have friends saying they cried at certain scenes, and I’m just like, “Really?”

Meanwhile I got some fat tears flowing during Death Stranding 2. But everyone is different.

Plus, while E33 has really good art direction, on the PS5 every environment seemed to have this haze going on. And there were lots of weird graphical flashes of artifacts or lighting. The game looks good and also doesn’t in a way. It’s hard to describe.
