Breja: I was never a fan of this kind of grimdark fantasy, and as I get older I find myself even less fond of super-dark settings. If I'm to sink hours and hours of my time into something, I'd much rather it be something colorful and nice to look at, like Ghost of a Tale or Divinity. I'm not saying I'm only playing cartoonish kids games, but even something like the Witcher, dark as it can get, is still also predominantly a beautiful world to explore. This... i feel tired and morose just looking at it.
Hi!
It's the opposite of what happens to me, Breja... I love these dark, gloomy and even disturbing worlds... they are dystopian and disconcerting in some cases. I'm not saying that a video game with a colorful world is less interesting or less funny or can't tell a dark story (for example: Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, Tales Of Phantasia, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Ori and the Blind Forest, etc). IIt's just a matter of consumer taste and preference. A hug, greetings!
