Loved the Ninja Gaiden series before part 3 but Black was notorious for diff. (game gave me hand cramps bad); worse than Dark Souls and Bloodborne.
I hear you esp with the lagging/buffering aspect. Tbh the coolest option I liked was watching a game on YT and then clicking a play now option to have it open in your browser. You're right tho up to this point they have all suffered (streaming services).
You're correct, I remember Xbox starting to try to promote the XBox1 this gen in that direction (digital only, online req) and the community backlash was too intense @ the time but seems to have evolved in that regard. Initially I hated it but have come around; only hang up point is digital sales not equating to used hard copies ($) but this has improved a lot recently as well. I do like the potential of Xbox and Switch teaming up to stream/make avail. both of their libraries. If they could incorporate Nintendo back into more adult gaming they could really run away with it.
Same company that makes Souls and Bloodborne. Action rpg but more focused on crafting your build along the way than making decisions that impact the game RPG. The builds (STR, AGI, END, etc.) are critical tho so that aspect is heightened comparatively to the Assasins Creed, Witcher type rpgs. This one looks like it has some story to it, but Souls and esp Bloodborne kind of lets the env tell its own story with the main focus on brutal diff. combat.
The Division 2 reviews are all positive. I've read it has almost too much content. It's too bad Anthem doesn't suffer from that positive criticism. Unfortunately The Division 2 doesn't have flying robot suits.
