Breath of the Wild was my favorite game since Mass Effect 2. I was in high school when that game came out. Feel it reignited my love of games actually. Sometime around 2014 or 2015 working out and running usurped gaming as my favorite hobby. Breath had me skip more than a few days in a row and now I just prioritize the other two because they're good for me.
Shame about Puzzle Fighter, feel that game would be awesome to kill a few minutes.
Just Cause 2 was a ton of fun for me. Don't remember a single thing about the story missions, but man that grappling hook was great. Tomb Raider I wasn't a fan of. Just felt kind of by the numbers. Rise was a huge improvement IMO, more tombs and survival mode was a great addition.
Dead Space is a game I respect more than I used to but still didn't find it all that great. It was in a weird limbo of action and horror even though it wasn't scary and not as well designed action wise as something like Resident Evil 4. 2 was a lot better for me, but The Evil Within 2 was closer to what I wanted from Dead Space.
I'd recommend X and XII then. X is a regular turn based combat system though pretty unique since it's based around swapping party members in and out. XII is active, but has a way to pause and pick commands for your characters then resume. Also gambits are awesome.
VI is fine, but the PS2 FF games are probably my favorites. Like their combat the most. VI has much better characters though
Then you'd love FFXII. That's the combats backbone
What older PS4 games are you most looking forward to checking out?
Having fun with DB Fighterz right now. Spider-Man looks great, glad Insomniac is on it, but hope they can nail the web swinging like 2 on PS2/XB/GC did. Red Dead Redemption 2 I'm weary on, it's been five years since Rockstar's last single player game, worried that all their focus is going to GTA Online. DQXI I'll wait to come to the Switch unless it gets HDR on PS4.
I'm also looking forward to Biomutant, Darksiders 3, and that samurai game Sucker Punch is making.
