I did. And for a long time DA:I is my favorite Bioware game. Not until I finished these 3. And they are now in my top favorite video games of all time.

I had the same complaints when I played the first three last year. I really enjoyed the story for the most part, but the gameplay was subpar, especially the gunplay and climbing. The climbing improves for sure and while the gunplay does, I still donโ€™t think it was ever good for me.

Told my friend this and he thought I was crazy, lol.

I can't recall having any of these issues in TLOU, but it's been a long time since the first. I definitely did not have any of these issues in TLOU2.

Some of the animations got a bit janky when I really started pushing the game, like switching directions mid-mantle or taking down enemies in certain situations, but overall, it felt pretty smooth.

Terrain is taken into consideration while firing weapons, with them launching actual projectiles instead of just registering the damage wherever you were aiming. Terrain can also block you from aiming your weapons if there is not enough room.

The platforming is still a bit rough sometimes, but being in control of the camera in most cases makes the controls pretty intuitive. I probably had maybe 10 deaths in my whole playthrough from falling, and at least a few of those were me just being a dumbass and thinking I could go somewhere I couldn't.

I honestly really enjoyed how TLOU2 felt, mechanically.

I just streamed that. 1-2-3 back to back. Iโ€™d never played them before. I knew almost nothing going into it.

Iโ€™m now 3 games past it and I STILL feel a bit empty and directionless. What a masterpiece in writing and story telling
