A look at reader comments regarding the Mass Effect Legendary Edition, speculation about a new Castlevania game, mixed reviews for Civilization 7, and publishers accidentally revealing upcoming content.
The Friday letters page discusses the possibility of a new Castlevania game and the mixed reviews for Civilization 7. One reader shares their thoughts on the Mass Effect Legendary Edition, finding it not as good as remembered. They note that the first game isn't great, Mass Effect 2's story doesn't significantly contribute to the overall arc, and Mass Effect 3 feels rushed. The combat becomes repetitive, and the characters, like Liara and EDI, aren't as engaging as before.
Another reader expresses their hope for a new GTA game exclusive to Nintendo, suggesting a top-down style or a spin-off based on the mini-games. A third reader reacts to the rumors of a new Castlevania game, questioning why Konami prioritizes Silent Hill and believes FromSoftware would be an ideal developer for the project. They advocate for a 3D approach rather than sticking to 2D. Another contributor comments on publishers spoiling their own secrets and speculates on the contents of the upcoming State of Play. Finally, a reader discusses the mixed reception of Civilization 7, pointing out the varying opinions among different gaming publications
