  • As more and more games come out and marketing budgets go through the roof, there are so many games that end up getting overhyped and then released to less-than-stellar reception that we just couldn’t cover all of them in a single list, so we’re taking a look at some of them once again. Here are 10 More of The Most Disappointing Video Games of All Time!

      I disliked the inclusion of the building mechanic in both games. I’m unsure why people love building in a Zelda game so much. It had nothing to do with it. The same as weapons degradation. Just why… It’s just trying to be every game now…

      Fundamental difference is that Tears of the Kingdom gameplay isn’t centered entirely around the vehicle mechanic. Yes it’s way more difficult, but you can play the entire game without using it.

    I enjoyed Duke Nukem Forever personally though I hadn't played the originals and I hadn't been following it's development cycle so my expectations for it weren't that high so that probably helped. Too Human also wasn't that bad and i'm pretty sure no shop actually complied with destroying unsold copies as that was pretty much unenforceable and there were probably very few unsold copies left anyways.

    Some I can think of include:
    SMTxFE. What was supposed to be a crossover between the high fantasy war drama of Fire Emblem and the grim philosophical post apocalypse of Shin Megami Tensei ended up being something neither fanbase wanted. What we got instead was an upbeat idol simulator RPG with some of the flattest and most cookie cutter plot and characters imaginable with only lipservice being paid to the franchises it was supposedly a crossover of.
    Soul Hackers 2. After so many years we finally got a sequel to a beloved cult title. Just sad that what we got was basically an in name only sequel that looked nothing like the original as well as not really being an all that good game in its own right. Suffering from a shoddy plot and monotone dungeons with an uninspired combat system, it was just a really forgettable experience. The main character was the only really remarkable thing about it. Oh, and it was made by the same people that made SMTxFE so make of that what you will.
    Shin Megami Tensei 3 Nocturne HD Remaster. A remaster of one of Atlus' most seminal RPG's seems like it would have been an easy slam dunk. Yet what we got was anything but. Rather, there was hardly anything "remastered" about it. While we got voice acting added, other than that it was more of an upscaled port than anything else. Most textures were still the same, framerate still capped at 30, cutscenes were still low resolution and the sound was still compressed. Just to show just how lazy it was, it lacked even basic quality of life features that is common in their games nowadays. And all that before even getting into the performance at launch with frequent crashing and hitting single digit framrates. Oh, and it had also cut out content from the original game and sold it as separate DLC. While the performance was eventually somewhat fixed with patches, it was still a massive downgrade over the original.

    I don’t think being in the works for 15 years guarantees disappointment. Half-Life: Alyx was the result of 13 years of development and resulted in a mind-blowing game with a fantastic story and equally fantastic gameplay. Psychonauts 2 was in the works for 17 years, yet that one managed to improve on basically every aspect of the original. My one gripe is that the levitation is too polished, lacking the brokenness of the original’s levitation. When my only criticism is that it’s not broken enough, you know it’s seriously good.
