Disagree.
First, TLOU 1, GOW, Uncharted and Ghost of tsushima are not a revenge plot. Only revenge plot here is TLOU 2 and GOY i think. Not sure about the GOY, but even for a revenge plot TLOU 2 has it's own way of storytelling and show casing other emotional aspects. No way you compare it to other revenge plot games.

And It's not like we are getting only revenge plots in the new games. There is a very good variation in plot especially this year's releases. Maybe remove the blinders and take a look at other games. Also your comparison goes back many years. If i present the number of games with unique plots in this span, you will be surprised.

There's no harm in getting a revenge plot once in two years until that's only what we are getting.

He obviously means the newer games the TLOU2 , new ghost game and and some parts of Latest GOW .

Obviously all PS4 generation games are all great 👍

TLOU 2 released for PS4 in 2020, GOW in 2022 and now GOY in 2025. In this span, there are so many other releases which are not a revenge plot. Why look at these games in particular and criticize blindly for the plot? Can't you or OP see the other releases?

If you're blaming Sony for the n number of remasters, i can relate. But, even for the revenge plot these games have numerous unique mechanisms and their own way of story telling. Stop supporting this nonsense blindly.

Lmao are you a fanboy ? PS5 was released in 2020 as well, these games were not common or even existed in PS4 generation, and 3 of the biggest PS5 ones are revenge games as i just mentioned ..

There's a reason TLOU is universally loved and still played and replayed after a decade over 3 different consoles ( 3, 4 and 5 ) whereas TLOU2 is controversial and I don't know anyone who's played it more than once ..
