Dragon's Dogma 2.
Loved the first one. Only negative I had seen about DD2 was the performance wasn't great. It's fucking dookie. Tons of great ideas that aren't executed well or for more than a single, short-as-fuck quest and then never used again.
The best part of the game is the Sphynx; and even those puzzles are a bit stupid toward the end. Like needing to remember where the very first medallion thing you picked up was. By the time you'd realistically find the Sphynx without any external guidance, you'd have found a ton of those fuckers and you sure as shit wouldn't think to mark down where after the fact.
Combat gets repetitive quick as enemies spawn constantly, and this includes big shit like griffons that can literally fly in while you're approaching the end of a long journey and snatch you up and carry you across the damn world to their nest.
Every little thing you do has some long-winded animation you can't cancel tied to it, and NPCs walking along roads constantly stop you to initiate meaningless dialogue; it doesn't just not respect your time, it pisses on it.
And to top it all off the story is stupid, short, and ends abruptly before you even know what the hell is really going on. This is including what little extra you can get after a NG+ cycle which makes it even more annoying that you are required to do the whole fucking game twice to still get a shitty ending that doesn't answer a single question you might have about the events of the plot.
I fucking hate this game.
