Heve you ever been pretty disappointed at some games/consoles/whatever gaming stuff ?
I have 3 to list right now :
[B]Payday 2[/B] - So many stuff devs promised that we don't even got any sign of life since launch. Most of heists are the same (crack open thing, get bags, escape) and the progression gets kinda grindy at the later levels.
[B]GTA online[/B] - So much potential ruined by a fuckton of annoying elements : MMO-like grindy progression due to shitty payouts, badly designed stuff (bad sports lobby, passive mode, match balance...), pretty unforgivable (pay for insurance, cops everywhere...).
[B]Call of Cthulhu : Dark corners of Earth[/B] - Game is awesome at the beginning. Pretty scary, good atmosphere and progression but then, as the player progress, it just becomes a shooter game.
Got a lot more but only these in my mind right now. Post yours.
X Rebirth, Aliens Colonial Marines, Risen 2, Dead Space 3, Mass Effect 3.
There are others but the first two are the biggest.
Diablo 3, the ending of Mass Effect 3 come to mind.
Call of Duty: Started off as a great series until around MW2-ish. Played the hell out of CoD 2.
Battlefield 4 campaign: Good until the mission where you have to escape China. Everybody gets explosive turrets and you constantly die.
Rouge Legacy
That I've lost motivation to play a lot of my games with singleplayer stories. I still like them but I end up killing time playing in pub servers instead because they're quicker to get into.
Also I miss when I had groups of friends to play with online. Time zones, jobs, school, etc. all ruin it so even if I find new people to play with, it falls apart very quickly. This happened with Black Ops 2, I got a little FP group together but it didn't last very long.
Borderlands 2.
[B]Mass Effect 3 [/B]- Just felt a bit meh throughout, lacking the spark the previous two games had, and the ending was insultingly bad
[B]Gettysburg: Armoured Warfare [/B]- Found a thread in GGD, liked the look of it, pre-ordered it. One of my biggest regrets.
[B]Eye Divine Cybermancy - [/B]Very meh. Didn't hold my interest long, with special, exceptional mention for the 'plot'.
[B]Napoleon Total War:[/B] - Buggy, non-functioning, smaller scale than Empire and all you really gain is graphical and campaign features.
[B]RAGE -[/B] Meh. Didn't work for a long while and I wasted a lot of my time trying to fix it.
[B]War of the Roses [/B]- Wanted M&B with good graphics. Instead, its just a wishy washy, clunky and laggy mess last I tried it.
[b]Payday[/b] - Meh, felt grindy and killing the first 100 enemies with the same gun and just barely passable shooting mechanics was enough before boredom overtook my desire to continue playing it.
Surprisingly BRINK didn't disappoint me at all as someone who pre-ordered it.
March of the Eagles & Europa Universalis IV.
Spore
Men of War; Assault Squad [B]-[/B] Failed to beat predecessor.
Hearts of Iron III[B] -[/B] Not my taste.
Magicka [B]-[/B] Broken.
Fallout Tactics [B]-[/B] Not unspeakable but not as good as 1 and 2.
Rage.
bioshock infinite
Spore.
/Thread
[B]Aliens: Colonial Marines:[/B] Because Randy Pitchford and the team were too busy masturbating over the fact that they were making an Aliens game to actually put effort into making an aliens game.
[B]Minecraft:[/B] The team kinda got lazy with it so by the time 1.0 rolled around, it was nowhere near having all of the promised features, and mods are needed to come close to anywhere near the potential the game could have had.
[B]F.E.A.R. 3:[/B] Nowhere as disappointing as Colonial Marines or Minecraft, but the first two games were pretty solid, and this just wasn't as good.
Unreal Tournament 3
Torchlight 2's ending.
Everything about Diablo 3 except the cinematics.
Dumbed down mechanics in Skyrim. (unkillable NPCs, a lot of shallow quests, bad writing, ect)
Grindfest 2013 aka Warframe.
Deus Ex Invisible war.
Cubeworld, I know its not out officially yet, but it seemed like a great idea that just didn't work the way they wanted it to. It was worth playing for a while but didn't have a LOT of replayability.
Front Mission Evolved
Was pretty generic and ran like poo poo

What makes this even worse is that this was the first PS3 game I ever bought.
Amnesia: Machine for Pigs.
the [b]everything[/b]. It's a great walking simulator that's for fuckin sure.
Assassin's Creed 3.
We were promised a dynamic weather system with tree climbing and more fluid missions
What we got was a permanent summer after game completion, only 10% of all trees being climbable, and a mission system that made no sense
Skyrim
dragon age 2

I've heard that AC3 is horrible, then I played it and thought it isn't all that bad, I couldn't compare it to previous games since I haven't been playing AC for a while.
But now that I've played Black Flag, damn AC3 was lacking.
The very first 10 minutes of Mass Effect 2 and then everything after that,anything that says Gearbox on it, the PS3,Dark Souls PC port, Star Wars Battlefront 2, Battlefield since Bad Company was a thing, the entirety of Grand Theft Auto 4 and Grand Theft Auto San Andreas and 5 for being that close to is, sex...... wait, never mind..... Anyway, anything with or will have the words Witcher in it, inb4 thief 4, Doom 3, Rage, CSGO, Black mesa Source, any fighting game since..... ever, When steam took away SR4 because no fun allowed, Steams no fun allow policies, Skyrim's Dragons, everything Bioshock ever, the fact Resident Evil exist, The fallout MMO being canceled, the TES mmo being a thing, inb4 Thief 4 again, on that note Dishonored..... and other things that i hopefully have blocked out of my mind.
Also GTA Online overshadowing the single player in a few ways.
I feel light the sp could've been a bit more fleshed out.
this fucking game
I was so excited for it months before release and then when I finally got my hands on it, it sucked the life out of me and I put it down after an hour, never to play again
rest in pieces, pandemic
