I'd love to upvote this more than once. What's the point of all those super high quality graphics if the core gameplay hasn't advanced in the slightest 🙄

AAA studios

Best I can do is predatory monetization and half-baked dlc. Also, now the Eula prohibit you from making unflattering comparisons to that one game Larian made

One of my favourite games was Operation Flash Point Dragon Rising on Xbox 360.

Graphics were terrible then but the gameplay was amazing.

I go back today and still play it, unfortunately the AI hasn't kept up and you can exploit it rather easily.
