Churning out new stuff for the sake of it isn’t good either.
Still prefer the former. Every one is usually a solid game with the potential to be a masterpiece and time is needed to make a good game. Cant churn out Breath of the Wild or RDR2 in one year.
I mean farcry isnt yearly and assassins creed is moving away from yearly releases since 2018
The former. If it’s a good game then it deserves to be played for multiple years. A new game every year is both exhausting and you risk losing features from one game to the next. Its inconsistent. It’d be like playing skyrim this year with certain weapons and then without them the next year
It’s even hard to compare the games on the right side. FIFA will mostly stay the same during one console generation, only graphics will get better and movements become more natural looking.
But assassin’s creed at least gives you a new story, a new location to explore, new skills and other mechanics that are unique to each game, like the poem battles in Valhalla, the grappling hook in Syndicate or playing detective in Unity.
Okay, Mario and Zelda is “old”, but they’re not GTA V and Skyrim old.
Old CoD still sales at full price
SNK’s King Of Fighters series did the “new game every year” thing way better.
*CHANGE MY MIND*
Both ways are wildly successful financially.
You forgot madden and 2k
At least we know Nintendo is working on BoTW 2 and a new mario game will come out eventually as always
Putting BOTW on there seems misleading considering it’s getting a sequel soon.
Square and Capcom: Remakes! Remakes Everywhere!
Thinking that Nintendo hasn’t released a new Mario or Zelda game yet because the prior games are still selling well is just next level stupid.
I almost *always* see Skyrim and gta on sale. If you end up buying those two at full price that’s on you.
Nintendo titles however…
GTA & Skyrim’s dev teams have each put out another giant game since those games came out while Odyssey & BOTW came out in 2017. What a stupid fucking post
*Game Series
More like “same game every year”.
You forgot one.
“You want a new game? Best we can do is take the old game and ‘remaster’ it. Now we’re gonna spin the wheel of re-releases and see what you get! Big money, big money, loving remaster c’mon…! Awwww! So sorry, but you got ‘Given to an inexperienced, underpaid studio and/or dev team who will butcher the graphics, remove features and add new bugs’. Also you got the bonus space of ‘forced upgrade of all old copies to the new version’”
“Better luck next time.”
Why are those Nintendo games on there? Like, BOTW’s getting a sequel, for starters, but they aren’t even that old anyways
Dont count far cry into that. Its nowhere near fifa or cod. Even assassins creed slowed down.
I’ll be lucky to finish 20 games a year. So I’m more than okay if every big publisher released 2-5 games a year, of various IPs, if that meant they are quality games.
This Year CoD and next year CoD will definitely the lasts that release Yearly (Hopely)
It’s like a skill tree lol. 1 lazy money maker per decade or several shittier money makers per decade.
Honestly, a lot of franchises would do better if they switched from every year, to at least every other year or two years….
No one said ever year release, but Skyrim and GTA5 are both about 10 years old.
“new” game
Botw and oddessy are nothing compared to skyrim and gta 5.
GTA V is not selling at full price but still is selling a fuck ton of units
Zelda is unfair here. The devs have been and are currently busting their asses to get that done. It’s a massive project + the elephant in the room: covid
Odyssey and BOTW do not belong there
Honestly, I’d rather have One good game that never gets a sequel than a parade of barely playable garbage every single year. sometimes Franchises die out and that’s fine. would I kill for another Bioshock or Dishonored? abso-fucking-lutely. would I want a new one every year for the foreseeable future? hell no.
Not gonna lie, those Far Cry games being out of order is irking me big time.
Blood Dragon is a stone cold classic
How the fuck are you lumping Super Mario Odessey and Zelda: BotW in the same group as GTAV and Skyrim?
