    “awful game” what is with this rhetoric that people no longer have an in between? A game is either a masterpiece or “awful” these days, why?? Why can’t a game just be fine or good but not great? Why must things be one extreme or another? Saying Skyrim is “awful” just makes you sound stupid honestly

          I thought the combat, leveling, story, stability, and scaling were all kind of medicore to bad.

        I mean I hated elder rings and I thought it was trash, but I know there’s no way that a game that popular is terrible, so I say “it’s not for me”. If you want to live in a stupid world without nuance, have at it.
