I never fall for that CGI crap when I think it started with WOW but still I would always wait for reviews or something
Fantastic 4 (2015) I really excepted more action
Dark Souls 2
My life But on the real though I have like 3 The first one has to be Dead Space 3, I hope it has been said before but man this game really hit hard. Going from like one of the most awesome action horror RE4 clone things second only to like, well RE4. Then the just the hard drop into bad story, shitty craft mechanics, and like bad enemy and level design Dead Space 3 is just fucking garbage to me. And the other two have to do with music but fuck it I don't care Muse: Drones Kid Cudi's fucking career after his first album. I don't even think I like that first album anymore but when I was 12 it was my shit. Now it has just been some kind of Rollercoaster ride down a hill that hasn't shown any signs of stopping.
Guild Wars 2. Talk about pissing on all the elements that made the original great. Everything from the removal of mana/energy to the removal of cross profession synergies. No matter what weapon you use you have a couple useless skills, and there is almost zero variety in utilities/heals. Elites are almost universally awful, or stupidly situational, and generally have multiple minute cooldowns. Pve is face first into a corner so you can dodge-roll in full dps gear. Even leveling is boring and tedious. Gear treadmills. Nonexistent balance. The best money farms besides playing spreadsheets were almost universally braindead afk farms, so there was no incentive to actually do dungeons. None of the dungeons had proper collision detection making it trivially easy to completely and fundamentally break all of them. Most still don't. Countless abilities were completely bugged at launch and could send you falling through the map. Countless uncompletable zones because of quest bugs. No gvg. No guild halls. Structured pvp is a joke, and WvW is more often dominated by body counts rather than any real talent. The fact that consumables were ever allowed in any form of pvp in gw2 is a total joke. There were items that could stun lock someone indefinitely. They arbitrarily capped fractals, and took away fractal ranks on about half of the people in my guild because shitters couldn't do them. They nerfed dungeon drops, including fractals, because apparently rewarding people for playing well is bad and leaving dumb afk shit like the lyssa farm around for weeks perfectly acceptable. They banned people for 'exploits' because they bought shit from karma vendors and then sold it for gold because we as players were somehow supposed to know the value of currency after playing for less than a week. They banned people for so many things that were the result of pure incompetence on their part, and yet the bots took months to even begin to clean up. Speaking of bots/hacks. Client side movement. You could teleport, flyhack, no clip, speedhack, send forged packets and instantly complete dungeons, etc. The list goes on and on. It was so trivial to hack in that game, and I'm pretty sure that there still isn't any client side detection for any form of hacking. It's all server side. That means that things like wallhacks, status indicators, target alerts and countless other enhancements are completely and utterly undetectable.

[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;49514055]The Hobbit movies are a fucking travesty and quite possibly the worst adventure epics ever made that didn't bomb at the box office. It's like, alright, let's take a movie that every Lord of the Rings fan wants to see made, let's get all the actors and crew back, rebuild Hobbiton, show the audience at home hours of production diaries along with a trailer a full year before the movie comes out. Now let's take a book that isn't even 350 pages and we'll stretch it out into not two, but THREE movies. And make em' LONG, nearly three hour movies. Now let's completely fucking throw out part of what made the original trilogy GREAT, which was the use of practicial effects and how well they blended with the CGI. Now everything's CGI and it somehow looks worse than it did ten years ago. Like, way worse. Have all the actors perform in front of green screens for 90% of the movie, resulting in uninspired performances that make the actors looked bored and dead inside to the point where it makes Ian McKellen break down into tears. Now let's make some of the weapons that the actors hold CGI. Why? Why nooooooooot? Also let's barely focus on the actual main character, but we'll make him interesting whenever he's on screen so that you want to see him more. In the meantime, we'll give the other dwarves a bunch of forgettable and sometimes cringeworthy dialogue, along with a bunch of lines like "THAT...was a DRAGON" for the ending line in the trailers to make some more of that much needed $$$$$$ Man, I could go on. The Hobbit movies are legit F-grade films and they somehow got worse as they went.[/QUOTE] i went to see the second hobbit movie with a girl and we never went out ever again after it

Fallout 3, was shit in comparison to the first two, but I guess I can kinda forgive it cuz it brought us New Vegas. Rainbow Six Siege was my biggest recently, I had a lot of fun with it in the free weekend and the 2 hours on Steam before I refunded it, but the server issues were so bad, I was constantly getting put into lobbies that just didn't even launch. Shame because underneath that it's so good. Battlefield 3 was not nearly as fun as Battlefield 2, 2142 or Bad Company 2. Battlefield 4 fixed a lot of issues I had with BF3 but it still isn't as good as the older ones, and introduced some new issues itself.
[QUOTE=Tobin;49623668]Fallout 3, was shit in comparison to the first two, but I guess I can kinda forgive it cuz it brought us New Vegas.[/QUOTE] New Vegas does feel like a more complete world. And the ending to Fallout 3 wasn't doing the game any favors for me either.
Walking Dead by TellTale, it might be just me but I didn't feel anything during this game, everything I did in the game felt pointless because no matter what I knew I was stuck on the one path and anyone I saved ended up dying anyway.
