How many beers would you order in the pub? Maybe the answer to that is a pretty good indicator of how good a game is. The twilight afterlife in Cyberpunk 2077 exudes coolness and danger, the Scumm Bar in Monkey Island is cozy and crazy at the same time, and in the Pelican Inn from Uncharted 3 you can still drink like a real English pub. These are bars for lots of beers. The harbor bar from Skull & Bones on the other hand? A dozen pirates stare silently at bungholes in the wall, in the silence, because no one is playing the fiddle, the ship’s piano or anything else that could set the mood. And even worse: Nobody here will give you a decent jug of rum. How are you supposed to feel as a real pirate?
