I mean I wasn't saying accept bad writing, I wasn't calling SR3 bad, you called it bad. I can't say I really expected something gripping going into this, I expected something sort of tropey and cheesy, sometimes you just want an action movie where the good guys win and the bad guys lose.
I think overall the series is fine, like we have some fun stories in each game, even Gat out of Hell is weirdly more engaging than you'd expect it to be going in. I never called anything bad, I'm certainly disappointed in some ways, but ultimately I'm still having an ok time. The greatest flaw I can draw to the new characters is the lack of time we have with them, they just don't really get to do more than be tropes at times. I think there's good ideas, and maybe with time they'll develop more. I mean jeez, we used to hate Pierce back in the day lol.
