Hey VFX i'm curious to know what other games you haven't played this gen that you think are overated
So I had a PS4 Pro before.
I've owned every single big blockbuster title (and played but didn't finish) on the PS4s this gen:
Horizon Zero Dawn: played up to the first big boss fight
God of War: played after I finished the undergrown dungeon and was on a boat moving to another island
Uncharted 4: finished it.
Spiderman: Got about 50% done and quit.
Detroit: Become Human: Finished it.
The Order 1866: Finished it.
Killzone Shadow Fall: 75% done.
I sold my PS4 Pro and all the games to buy a Nintendo Switch and a lot of games on that platform.
Everything else was played on the PC this gen.
There was no 3rd party game overrated because people just didn't go crazy of those games even though they had great tech.. BUT, some of the PC players thought very positive of the Ray-traced games like Control and Metro. Those games, while technically advanced graphically, failed to present in the artistic direction. I hated the look of both of them. So I'd say they were overrated.
The only PS4 game on here that I would say is overrated was God of War. It had nowhere near the graphics advancement I was looking for compared to how extraordinary beautiful it was touted.
Of that PS4 list, the ones that really deserve a crown in graphics tech AND artist mastery are these:
Horizon Zero Dawn
Detroit
The Order 1866
All 3 games exceeded my expectations and were wonderful displays of graphics tech + artistic talent.
