It looks pretty but it has no depth, is nowhere near as good as the rest of the series, and has one of the worst protagonists in a game ever.

FFXIII?

 

[GorillaJu]

Life is Strange?

Nah, he said thousands of men, not the same person a thousand times >

 

[JC Lately]

nvm

 

[eizarus]

You talk in the manner of dragons and then get modded.

 

[Xbro]

In a world where there's ladders and wood planks everywhere..

The Last of Us

Many would describe the characters as endearing and the plot twists effective but no, that's wrong.

Persona 3

 

[tuxfool]

Young girl murders thousands of men because of horrible circumstance, seems to be both mentally scarred by it and strangely eager to go on another adventure afterwards.

TR2013, more accurately

 

[Xbro]

A very short game which usually have edge lord protags and sells like 8 copies?

What am I

Devil's Third

[GKSilKamina]

Horrible story, horrible art direction, levels are too long and level design is so horrible and bland that you're surprised when you're told they are not randomly generated, the main battle system is so bad that making insects fight each other manages to be more fun, a new generation of gamers had the misfortune of gaining the possibility to play it recently.

Rogue Galaxy?

 

[Zareka]

Persona 3

Not that either. So far 2 of my favourite games have been mentioned.

 

[GorillaJu]

These descriptions that are like "the characters suck, the story sucks, ans everything else about the game is shitty" are the worst hints ever.

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

We can do it better than the original, those guys are no longer cool and will be laughed out of a bar.

 

[eizarus]

Bingo!

Spoiler

I don't hate it per se, but I do think it's extremely overrated and relies on mods to make it shine.

Skyrim.

Pretty sure I've spent more time modding that game than playing it.

Exactly. Half my fun came from applying mods and seeing what they do. I miss those insane graphics mods.

DmC, easy.

 

[hydrophilic attack]

Rogue Galaxy?

yup

Well someone still got mine easily.

I guess the game simply just is that bad

 

[Golnei]

Hellblade.

 

[pizzacat]

Devil's Third

Nah you're close tho

 

[Twilight Gap]

The epitome of broken promises. A giant slap in the face. A game that would have shut down any other studio.

 

[Astral Dog]

Hellblade.

Soul Calubur

 

[WaterAstro]

Tutorial is voiced by a computerized dead trumpet in a bondage suit.

Spoiler

I stopped playing the game during the tutorial because that guy was so annoying.

 

[Acquiescence]

Terrible accents abound, everything handles like utter trash no matter what kind of vehicle you're driving, the gameplay is the very definition of the word 'repetitive' and hijacking aircrafts requires inputting the same braindead QTE every single goddamn time.

But hey, the world sure is open!

 

[Gurnlei]

As someone else described it in an article recently:

'A gay romance gone wrong.' And it has blades you can shoot with.

 

[labx]

Puzzle platformer where you have three characters that you have to move one at a time.

Trine

or

Where Is My Heart?

or

Replay: VHS is not dead.

 

[NoKisum]

Oh, is that the one game on DS? Was it a Lunar game?

That sounds like LUNAR: Dragon Song.

Why was it so awful...

You guys got it. Such a slap in the face to RPG fans. It's literally the one time in my life where I can say I've fully regretted a game purchase.

Spoiler

Though on the plus side, it led me to trading it in and falling in love with Katamari Damacy.

 

[neurosyphilis]

The most try hard dudebro game, it's gory, and typical white dudebro characters with big armor.

Just Cause 2

 

[E_Darkness]

You're on some magical island, dressed as a stripper and you have some weird time rewind mechanic where you create a clone of yourself.

 

[SeanTSC]

There's a QTE for a fat man using an inhaler.

 

[Wagram]

Terrible combat, music, cliche story, over sized feet, mechanics, and everything else that's negative under the sun.

Oh and it's made by Peter Molyneux.

 

[Feltrol]

You hunt monsters in the same place over and over again. It's walking simulator.

 

[Xbro]

Final Fantasy VIII

 

[eizarus]

Dragon Age: Inquisition?

Edit: misread the last part as "blades you can shoot"

Bioshock Infinite.

Just Cause 2

Well done.

Heavy Rain.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

The epitome of everything wrong with the franchise culminating in a game with superb shooting mechanics but garbage everything else. The 3rd reiteration of this particular style of gameplay.

 

[JC Lately]

IT WAS TO ME.

 

[themagicalkitsune]

The most recent entry of a highly revered niche series, where you're punished for running, and for wanting both gold and experience.

God of War?

Lunar Dragon Song

MGSV. And it's fucking great

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Take some of the most addictive, tightest-controlling games in video game history, strip away all of the features people come to expect, add mechanics that people didn't ask for to solve problems that didn't exist, and then tweak every aspect that people liked about the controls so that people don't like them anymore.
