>proving his point

OP is an american who things that only good games are the ones where you shoot things

>only one game isn't a button masher
And its fucking dragon quest.

I hate Nier for amplifying this shitty fad.

>shallow walking sim
>1 button contextual everything combat
>rpg design option boils down to: pick an accessory, of which there is about 1 good one for each character
