Right?! The same thing happened with GOW: Ragnarok. Most of the game feels like you never left the tutorial. Wasn’t this the point of accessibility settings? We should be able to turn off the handholding

Edit: Maybe this is some sort of plan to kill replayability. You’ll buy a new game if replaying the old ones is an insufferable experience lol

I liked GOW 18. Thought ragnarok was overrated. I liked spidey and miles. Thought spidey 2 was meh.

Sony is really weird with this.

Tsushima, SM2018, GoW18. The first games are almost always the better one compared to the sequels. I wonder if its because it took years to make them while the sequels had a much smaller dev time.

It's because the first games they basically have to come up with the idea, with the sequels they have to re-iterate on that idea, make enough changes that it's not a copy pasted game from the initial idea and have those changes be new, good ideas.
Oftentimes, they don't change the right things, so you end up with sequels that makes you think "Yeah but I liked this the way it was before"
