VN's are more of the same shit though. So that's kinda understandable.
The mediums stagnate. And those Telltale games, Life is Strange etc are the direction they need to take. But JPN can keep churning out garbage and it get eaten. Hopefully the JPN release of LiS inspired some studio to step their shit up.

The shorter the StC (Start to Crate) the worse the game is. This is the only way of objectively measuring a game's quality. Crates (and barrels) are lazy shit scene fillers and are a reflection of the amount of effort a developer puts into the game. Games with a 0 second StC such as Doom and Deus Ex and Half Life 3 are objectively shit.

I really miss when you started up a game and were presented with a ton of options and had no idea what was really going to work. Having something that leaves you under powered only to find some niche application that you'll end up missing dearly on another playthrough. People are so scared of not having perfect builds in single player rpg games, it's not like they're very hard games, if anything this gives you the ability to adjust difficulty based on skills chosen while not having adjust damage/health values for everything instead to keep a character "balanced".

When combat is awful, as is wont in RPGs because they're made for people with no skills or standards, and combat is used to pad a game from 6 hours to 60, because RPGs are made for people whose time is worthless, you have a problem that can only be solved through combat optimization. RPG devs realize this, and use it as an excuse to put even less effort in their products.

That's because your average RPG developer is as bad at streamlining as they are at everything else. Playing a warrior in BG2 sucks less than playing a warrior in DAO because the BG2 warrior has no mechanical options and there's no depth to combat, so you can just zone out until it's time to loot. But you cannot claim that a bucket of d&d vomit offers better combat or more meaningful character building.
