    Still one of the best combat systems I've played, hands down.

    Replayed it right after it dropped from my backlog last spring, no nostalgia involved. The combat still holds up completely, the pacing in the middle stretch drags a little but the peaks more than make up for it.

    J'ai l'impression que le milieu du jeu traîne un peu, comme on dit ici, même si de mon côté je l'avais surtout ressenti pendant les phases d'exploration plus calmes.

    Anyone else replay this after finishing Ghost of Tsushima back to back? I did it last winter and the pacing difference really stood out to me, one lets you breathe, the other never stops pushing you forward.

    Curioso ese contraste, ¿a los demás también les costó adaptarse igual o fui yo solo?

    Gaudin1990

    Pareil ici, j'ai enchaîné les deux l'automne dernier... et le contraste m'a un peu déstabilisé au début.

    Rankings shift every week and nobody's mind actually changes, but I'll keep voting for this one every time anyway.

    Mon frère jouait à Ragnarök pendant que je regardais Fallout 3 sur son épaule des années avant. Deux ambiances totalement opposées, et pourtant les deux m'ont marquée pareil.

    Pareil pour moi, ça marque.

    Ma sœur regardait aussi pendant que je jouais à Fallout 3, mais elle décrochait vite. Sur Ragnarök elle restait scotchée du début à la fin.

    Tu te souviens si c'était plutôt les combats ou l'histoire qui la gardait accrochée à l'écran comme ça ?
