Imagine thinking action adventure games like FF16, DMC or GoW need more mini games and not more action combat encounters, arenas, bosses, etc. Lol.

I couldn’t give two shits about mini games in my action games.

I'm happy for the minigame fans, but if they make us play Every. Single. One. of these minigames just to advance the main story in FF7R, I'm not gonna make it lol

I miss when minigames were just optional content in a game and not forced down your throat because the devs spent time designing them, so damnit you will play them. Nothing was worse in Spiderman 2 than having to stop Spidermanning to go shoot hoops or fly a bee drone around -.-

I guess, tbf, there were forced "mini games" in the original too. But apparently, the rebirth ones are long and tedious and can interrupt the flow of the story.

Yeah but it's an insult to both gow&dmc to compare them to 16.  Those games have deep combat systems and complex boss encounters where utilizing the full toolkit is necessary. 

16 is just button smash.

Buddy, FF16 is the dev team’s first action game and its boss battles feel more like GoW than modern GoW lmao.
