Far Cry isn't bad as much as it's just really milking a formula. That works a lot better when it's a multiplayer experience you're milking.

So far due to it having forced enemy level scaling: Assassins Creed Odyssey.

Really sad too since I had really been looking forward to the game but as is the game is broken. When they give an option to turn off enemy level scaling the game will likely be amazing.

Dissidia Final Fantasy NT

The gameplay and visuals are great, but it's a 3v3 online arena fighter that lets you pair up with brain-dead bots against human players in ranked matches. I also have a high-speed and wired connection, but still experienced significant lag online. If the netcode had been better, I would have loved this game, but as it is, I put it down like a month after release and haven't touched it since.

Precisely why, it wasn't terribly far removed and went over plot points that were largely alluded to, and decided to use a different perspective just to spice it up enough. The "survival" mechanics just added tedium. I'd honestly have preferred something from an entirely different set of people and maybe run in to John and his gang at some point. It just felt... boring as a whole package to me. Very uninspired and "safe."

Destiny 2. Got it for $10 during a sale and it was one of the most uninspired, grindy games I've played in a while. Hard to believe this is the same company that brought us Halo.

Most disappointing was probably RDR2.

Probably Lucius 3.

I liked 1 for the short levels and interesting deaths.
I liked 2 because it was semi-open world (small maps but still had freedom of movement) and there were interesting ways to interact with the world.

3 is really poorly optimized, AND they took the story focus from the original game and slapped it into a town that's way too big, which means you wind up spending a lot of time running around from place to place engaging in pointless dialogue with little to no action / entertainment. And it's kinda glitchy, like I can't advance because the dialogue in this one area just keeps looping.

Amen. All I wanted was an HD version of Dissidia 012 but they wanted E-SPORTS

I'll hop on board the Dissidia train and say it was the worst game I almost bought. I played two different demos for it, one at PAX and one during the live beta, and both of them suffered from issues. The 3v3 format simply wasn't fun, the controls were horrible, massive lag and long wait times for matches, and all the good stuff from the previous Dissidia games had either been gutted or made worse. I wanted the game to be good, but it simply wasn't.

3 on 3 is just simply way too chaotic and makes the HUD so sloppy no matter which one you choose.

I hope they either redo the combat, otherwise we'll probably be waiting another half decade plus for a good Dissidia

I didn't really like it at first, but after unlocking some moves (and strengthening some others), I started to appreciate the gameplay

the social element is kind of overrated, though, IMO.

it was cool that each person had some kind of effect on the state of the community, but talking to everyone ended up being pretty boring.

Personally, I liked the chaos of 3v3, but I've never played the other Dissidia games. The HUD was too crowded though.

I too thought it was boring. The demo completely turned me off. And seriously, fuck games with that much dialouge with no auto advance text option.
