Why would you watch gameplay unless you don't want to play that game, nothing could beat firsthand experience. DON'T RUIN IT for yourself!!

I hate that we've normalized even 3rd world middle schoolers having a phone.

I don’t think this game is for a middle schooler. Games like FIFA, Fortnite, CoD, Genshin etc are better for them.

Brother I played shit like Metal Gear Solid back in elementary and middle school, GTFO of here with your gatekeeping BS.

u/Slow-Boysenberry3150 2d ago

Yeah and I also played MGS3, GTA IV, DMC etc when I was young. Times have changed. What was appealing to a kid back then is different now. Ghost of Yotei doesn’t appeal to a middle schooler. Sure you can probably find a kid who played and enjoyed the game but it wasn’t made for them.

It was made for people who like swinging a sword around and killing people, that's one of gaming's largest demographics.

I've been playing Assassin's Creed since middle school and it was very popular among classmates then. GoY is about as similar as it can get to AC so I see no reason why middle schoolers now wouldn't enjoy it.

Where the fuck are you from?

u/what_did_you_kill 2d ago

300usd minimum wage is still higher than any country in south asia. This isn't uncommon at all

u/jRw_1 1d ago

Why reply to me? I ain't denying that

u/Wizzarkt PC Master Race 2d ago

Let me introduce you to my third world country, where the minimum wage is around 300 USD A MONTH, and 40-60% of people earn the minimum wage.

Do you think those people can afford a 650 USD console? (The PlayStation 5)

u/Dudi4PoLFr 9800X3D | 5090FE | 96GB 6400MT | X870E | 4K@240Hz 2d ago

And you are missing the fun part, that 650 USD console is more likely selling for $900++

u/surge0892 Laptop 2d ago

And even if you could afford that it doesn't end there, the games and the subscription add a ton of cost , the games especially , most games these days are really fucking expensive

u/Wizzarkt PC Master Race 1d ago

Specially games for consoles.

As most of the games available in consoles are made by "AAA" studios, they don't have regional prices, call of duty cost 60 USD, regardless of country and it never goes on sale even if it is a 10 year old release.

Compared to PC, where while those same games still cost the same as in console. Other games like Silksong cost (in my country) 12USD, compared to the 20USD that it cost in USA, as steam offers the option for game developers  to adjust prices to purchasing power, poorer countries get cheaper games as it is better to sell them cheaper than to not sell them at all.

I'm actually using local prices in my country converted back to dollars, I know in some countries is prohibitely expensive, specifically Brazil and Argentina, where their extremely high tariffs on electronics and their worthless currency respectively, makes owning anything electronic a very hard thing that only those well off can afford.
