This isn’t going to be a long one today. I just wanted to say that I finished the campaign for What the Golf? It wasn’t a long campaign, but it was a wild ride. I have to give props where props are due and say that was a lot of fun. For a golf game to have such an entertaining campaign was quite a shock, but the fact that there is an actual boss fight is crazy. A boss with phases, mind you. Can we just think about that? I am playing a game of golf while also managing to fight against a boss by using everything at my disposal and throwing literally everything I have at it. This is something so interesting to me.
If you had told me that I would be facing off against an evil frog king for the sake of all things golf as the final boss for a golf game, I would’ve thought you mad. The thing I love about this game is that even at the end the game is still filled with such creativity. I have never been a big fan of sports games. The reason is that I could never find the appeal in playing tournaments in a videogame when it would usually be more interesting to just find a game to watch, or maybe even play yourself. One of the purposes of videogames in my eyes is to create things that can’t exist in the real world. Yet, for some reason, we keep adding realism to games because that is supposed to make things more interesting. Personally, I think adding realism isn’t all that great. I don’t play videogames to embrace reality, I play them to ignore it. So I just want to quickly thank this game for showing me that there are no limits to an idea, as long as you are willing to put in the effort. Never thought I’d be saying that about golf of all things, but here we are.
Anyways, that’s all I wanted to say. I enjoyed the game and figured since it was basically the only thing I played this week, I would bring it up again for fun. I still am not sure why this game made frogs evil though. Oh well, a mystery for the ages. See you next time!
