Why You Don't Like "Great Video Games"

For the longest time, I have not liked many of the "best games ever made". Games like The Witcher 3, Skyrim, and even Red Dead Redemption 2 (until I replayed it) felt like they were extremely overhyped and overrated. I don't think that's the case anymore, but I see many of the same opinions floating around online, so I had to ask myself, "Why don't we like great video games?" Hey everyone, thanks for clicking on this video. My name's Merakie, and I post video essays about everything and all things video games. I post every 3-4 weeks, and it would be greatly appreciated if you stuck around to see what I make next. Anyway, see you all next time!
