Why is Capcom messing with our expectations again? 🤨 Their new game, Pragmata, looks intriguing, but let's be real for a second—why do they think we need another convoluted combat system? The recent gameplay reveals only add to the confusion. We already have a mountain of classics from Capcom that deliver pure joy, so why shift the focus to this new license? It feels like they're trying to cash in on hype instead of delivering genuine innovation. Remember when gaming was about fun, not constant reinvention of the wheel? How many more half-baked ideas can they throw our way before we say enough is enough? It’s time for Capcom to step up or step aside.
