Couldn't you say the same thing about any fighting, sports, or racing game?

The enjoyment of repetitive games comes down to gameplay, the characters, environment, and the feeling of progress or getting better. If you're not enjoying those elements the game probably isn't for you.

Yeah, every game is repetitive in some way. Some things are more fun to repeat than others though. I could find new towns in a game like Fallout literally all day and not get bored.

Got some time with Arkham Knight. I actually kind of enjoy the batmobile segments. It is a nice change of pace from the Batman combat. Conroy's voice is Batman to me. Good stuff.

I wanted to check it out a while back but I don't have a ton of time to play online these days.

Anyone interested in buying a 3ds XL (Zelda LTTP edition) with many many games here? I don't really have a price in mind just due to the amount of games that it would come with. I'm just trying to see if there's any interest first.

Yet another great episode of Tales from the Borderlands. That game is crazy good. Telltale are breaking ground.

Just finished Dishonored for the first time. Never really played a stealth game before, but this one was fun. I played with high chaos because I'm impatient, but I think I'd eventually like to try it again and go for a no kill/no alert playthrough.

This will be the first Batman game where I collect everything. I can't get enough of the main story, side story, puzzles, and environment. Batmobile issues aside this game is fantastic.

That new Batman is/was pretty stellar. I was going to 100% it was well, but I just don't have enough time these days to do that kind of thing with games anymore. Decided to suck it up and beat it. Will sell and get the inevitable GOTY addition with all the DLC next year.
