Most new AAA games suck, that's why. I miss when games were made with passion rather than for a quick soulless cashgrab.
Now they're made with marketable 'passion', 'dedication', and a team with 'a family atmosphere'. My personal favorite 'respect for the lore and previous games in the series' definitely never has made a triple A game worse for wear.
Disingenuous buzzwords with no objective meaning behind them are my favorite things to hear in a game. It tells me to steer clear as far away as I possibly can. Which is a shame because I'd like to be excited about vampire: the masquerade 2.
