Disappointments

Post video games that you expected to be good, but got disappointed and why.
Try to be constructive too.

I expected a good diablo clone, but got bad zelda clone.

...

?????????????

MGSV

The artists and sound team did their jobs with flying colors. The one good thing I got out of experiencing Nuclear Throne was the joy of bandits.

I rarely know anything about devs, because it's the game I play, not devs.


Well it looked like one from previews.

Shit like Risk of Rain and Shovel Knight makes me to still have faith.

user you should have been able to tell it was gonna be shit just from the screnshots

what
do you even know what a diablo game is

Unfortunately I don't expect anything of games anymore to be disapointed.

...

Where the FUCK do you think you are?

I tried this game out because the sprite art was atonishing. Truly great.
Then I faced what TERRIBLE controls this game has nearly dropping it. Who the fuck makes the only dodge/dash button to be on the same direction where you are attacking? Oh good idea, if you are hitting on the left and try to dodge an attack from the guy at the left let's dash towards him. Why wouldnt they fucking put the dash controls on the movement, not on the fucking white dot that you use to aim your attacks.
When I found out that the secret are just "out of camera" bullshit, I finally dropped it.

Lel so much hype and jerking from indie hipster fucks. No coop mode, no challenge mode - all kickstarter promises arent met, horrible color scheme and 30fps.

I thought it was going to be similar to "Gangsters", it isn't. You're just waiting for time to pass to have enough money to buy the next building. The Xcom style battle sequences are fucking jokes, there's no thought required.
You already know.
The first 2 are great. It was clearly rushed. Buggy, broken, not as pretty, puzzles are stale.
Everyone says it's good. It's not. It's fucking horrible.

Somewhere not to talk about football, celebrity gossip and pretending to like the person you talk to?

Why can't Xenosaga have Endless Frontier combat?


That's beta as fuck, user, if you do this irl, you should kill yourself.

Bioshock 1 was amazing, 2 was decent and they fucked up slightly in Infinite. Bioshock Infinite was my hype and on arrival I knew something was off. Both 2 and Infinite lack the depth of 1, which is truly disappointing.


Risk of Rain, David., Spacechem, Great Permutator, Battleblock Theater, Castle Crashers to name a few. Sure, most indie devs are SJW cockmonglers but there are some devs who break the trend and make something amazing.

You're wrong. Bioshock 1 is above average by modern standards, Bioshock 2 was good and Infinite was shit.

Not necessarily, sometimes you have to suck it up to get good grades and pussy. Something that's probably lost on you.

Do you have a single fact why you believe that, other than the fact you heard other people say that?

Why did it have to be this way? Why? Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?

KOJIMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Burch pls


Was it kojimbo's ruse? Or konami fucked him up? We will never know.

Subtle marketing thread?

That's the worst part. I have no idea who to hate for it

I played through all of them.

No defense? Then you should probably kill yourself worthless piece of shit. As this is a disappointments thread, you're probably a disappointment to your parents, can't even understand basic communication skills.

Also

Starting off a shill thread by stating the gameplay of a game is like deepthroating a cactus might just not be the most effective of marketing tactics.

And we kept telling you it would be like that.

And you give not a single argument why one of them trumps the other. Not the story, not the mechanics just 'hurr durr it's good because I said so, my opinion is objective fact'

Faggot

I don't even care about Bioshock, you're just obnoxious without anything backing you up

You sound angry, did I strike a nerve?
My basic idea is that pride>any material gains.
As of pussy.
Does not compute mate, why do you want to bone a chick, if you don't like her?
It's an interesting discussion, but yeah not video games.

Living in your parent's basement shunned by others, people talking behind you because you refuse to talk to people is not pride. It's humiliating.

How childish are you? You don't need to like a person that much to touch privates.

You're both idiots. The entire bioshock franchise is garbage.

also ken levine is a jew. just like todd.

You are projecting lol.

...

Hyper lights demo was great, however it seems to have given you all the available weapons which is disappointing.

What? How is the logical conclusion of your suggestion of actions be projecting? Are you this sheltered? How old are you? Do you believe you'll find 'the one' when you're older? Kill youself mate


You don't have to care 100℅, that's impossible. It might be true in your head with your 2D imaginary friends.

I expected a fun, fast, zelda clone.

instead I got a shallow borefest with completely uninteresting mechanics.

The guy is gonna die, and his crowning achievement is a mediocre flash game with some nice concept art. Oh well. still done more than me.

that wasn't my point, I just don't want to participate in the act of love with someone who I have no affection for. Oh and that isn't a percentage sign.
also stop projecting so hard you retard

...

Well duh, that's a given. You wouldn't even talk to people you don't know, let alone pretend to be interested in them. And thnx for the spoiler, if I read that without warning I would've cried because my feelings would be so hurt ;~;

Retard.

The element skill system was fun but holy heck, my whole team and items were broken before I was even a year in,
I wasn't even trying that hard either, I was making tons of mistakes and getting into fights/gathering when I didn't need to and might go over a day by only 1 or 2time segments for items I barely needed. Even missing out on objectives on my first run through an area because I was too lazy to reload a save I made just before returning to colseit
like, I understand making it easier for casual nip girls who might come over from mobages or otome vns, but this goes way beyond easy, it's totally trivialised

Just about everything from 2015…


Getting shot from offscreen is a common occurence. Battletoads doesn't cheap shot you like this. The level design necessitates using guns over melee weapons unlike in the first game although I should have expected this because, in the tutorial level, you wear the Aubrey mask and the perk that gives you is "MORE GUNS" and, what do you know? More guns is the name of the game.


When I got to the sewer level: I found that my guy keeps getting caught up on the geometry. Otherwise, the survival mode is good.


The game was released half-finished and there were boundless amounts of glitches keeping the game from being an enjoyable experience.


The similarities between this and Hotline Miami 2 are astounding:

-*THE* draw for what made both of their previous entries so enjoyable and beloved is largely removed. For Lisa: It's party members and, for HLM, it's the masks that give you perks and allow you to go through levels with unique playstyles (with the exception of Rando and the perks and weapons that Jake and Beard have; the Fans and Son only give you a choice between three or four kinds of wrecking ball). And the kicker is that this was necessary for the stories that the creators wanted to tell rather than the games we wanted to play.

-Fantastic soundtrack that's a substantial upgrade from the previous entries' already excellent music.

-A bleak ending in which the end of humanity is assured set to the tune of an unprecedented lyrical track.

I'm not sure what message you were trying to convey here.
That I'm a NEET? Like I and some other user said, stop projecting, I'm not one, I have a job and I'm studying.
Or were you trying to say that since I won't have sex with a random human being I know nothing about and have no affection for I also will never talk to anyone ever?
If you think that "I don't want to have sex with a person I don't love" = "I'm a shut in NEET who would never even talk to somebody he doesn't know", Then sorry, you're the retard

lol k

Yeah, this. I think the most recent game to not disappoint me was Dark Souls, and only sort of. It started out great, but in the long run, the weak second half of the game and overall smallness of the explorable world meant even it wasn't the full package.

Which reminds me, it seems like best case scenario any more, you get games that are good besides being too short. Last game I can think of that was good AND had a satisfying amount of world was Okami. I get that designing and planning a game takes work, but in something like Dark Souls, would it have been so hard to plan out the important stuff and just let level designers fill out more space between the key points? I'd be fine with the additional areas being a bit generic and unimportant as long as they were just more places to go.

...

Hahahaha, thnx for the oekaki. I'm saving that picture.

Sorry. There was really nothing to argue about, of course nobody would fuck strangers. I was merely saying that you don't have to really accept a person wholly to their core to have a relationship with. Maybe a really cool friend you met that plays all the games you like and watched all the same shows you watched when you were little but he likes drawing furry porn. No harm in that. And this whole carfuffle started by the other fag saying 'if I pretend to like someone, I'm a cuck and should commit suicide'. Given, that's correct too, to some extent. Thid was all just a very long deliberate fuck you to the other user friend.

And my previous post was agreeing with you chum

lol
k

So this was just a big misunderstanding then, sorry for being too harsh user

Yeah no hard feelings were meant, nor felt
Sorry for the thread OP, I'll stop posting

I have no idea what you're trying to say. The dash button will dash you forward if you aren't pushing a direction, but if you want to dodge to the side, then you simply input a direction + dash. It's basic combat roll shit.

Ignoring that, what about the out of camera stuff was so bad? I loved that stuff because it was never arbitrary, and there were always visual cues.

Pride ain't gonna put food on your table faggot

You've got only yourself to blame.

Dragon's Dogma Online
All they had to do was copy and paste Dragon's Dogma and add online to it, but they gave us this monstrosity. It might even have been tolerable if it hadn't been for the retarded enrage mechanic single handedly taking all the fun out of boss fights, and the devs adamantly refuse to admit it was a stupid idea and remove it even coming up on a year of player complaints later.

...

You expected WHAT?

...

I still find the preview more enjoyable…

This piece of shit right here. It was probably naive of me in retrospect, but I was expecting another Super Metroid. Instead I got a dumbed down linear hand-holdy piece of shit that spits in the face of that game and the franchise in general.

...

My first metroid was Zero Mission.
I consider fusion one of the worst not obviously shit from get go games I ever played.
