Death Stranding.

before I played it, I thought it would be cool getting a game that was "all Kojima", that had no behind the scenes office politics (as far as we knew) hampering his vision.

wrong. I was so wrong.

what we got was one of the shittiest AAA games in recent memory.

Its been a long time since I've bought into a hype for a game and it let me down.

Guild Wars 2 was the closest thing to a disappointment to me but I still managed to have a blast playing it, even if it never lived up to the first game

Ass Creed 3.
They took one of the more interesting time periods and made it feel super boring half the time. Connor is extremely one note and a lot of the environments didn't have the vast climbing sections that the previous games had. Plus I was genuinely interested in the Desmond storyline and that was the most unsatisfying ending I can think of.

Enjoyable game, but still disappointing.
I always wanted to try that one, but twenty hours is way too short for this type of game. Gotta be 60-80 for me.

Shenmue III. If the game came out two years after the second game not a lot of people would care, but it came out 19 years after 2. The fans deserved so much better.

I assumed its sort of like Wasteland or Fallout 1 and 2?

Either way, I think FF12 is the game that disappointed me the most. I was like WTF when I saw the combat. Then I tried it anyway and it was just boring as all get out. Easily my biggest disappointment and a huge step down from 10 (which was a considerable step down from 9).

Remember when Axel goes "call me Axel" at the start of the game for no reason, as his true name of Lea had been reinstated at that point, and spends the rest of the game breaking the fourth wall?

Remember when a random cutscene at the start of the game cuts off a character mid-sentence, which was where they stuck the DLC later on?

Remember how the last couple hours of the game are just a rapid-fire set of character endings they shoved through the door, rather than naturally writing them throughout the game?

KH3 was fun to play, but Christ. It was a fanfiction game. The story was like Kingdom Hearts fanfiction, down to wisecracking, fourth-wall-breaking Axel.

Tales of Vesperisa. I downloaded the game off of Gamepass. I havent played a Tales game since Takes of Phantasia, which I loved.

When I got to the battle system I pretty much deleted the game after I experienced it. It was just the tutorial but my God It was just so slow and clunky. I was glad they kept the old systems core but it was just unfun. Tales of Phantasia had a fast and fluid combat system.

I dont think Ive ever instantly hated a game from the combat system alone. What a disappointment

Tales of Phantasia had a fast and fluid combat system.

Maybe I haven't played Phantasia in ages, or maybe the SNES version worked this way and the gba version is just trash but... this statement baffles me because Phantasia seemed pretty slow to me. Having to move in a straight line in battle, Cless being the only Frontline fighter (Maybe that ninja girl?), I felt sluggish all game.

Admittedly my experience with Tales games are limited. Phantasia, Symphonia, and Abyss.

Its fast compared to Vesperia. I havent played any other Tales games so I dont know. Which one would you recommend?

This was my first kneejerky thought. Had a ton of fun with it, but in the end, the writing fell apart toward the end and the Online jank felt undercooked (at least back when it came out; dunno how it is now).

I liked Symphonia and Abyss. Symphonia is even a prequel to Phantasia(Even though it came much later).

I've heard good things about Xillia 1 and 2, but I haven't played them personally.

Plus I was genuinely interested in the Desmond storyline and that was the most unsatisfying ending I can think of.

Originally they were building up to a modern day game with Desmond. However, by this time AC became the history simulation money machine for Ubisoft, so they promptly abandoned that idea.

As for AC3 itself, it doesn't help that you start the game as Haytham and the story is much more interesting. Once you swtich over to Connor you are literally put back into tutorials for stuff you already know. Piss poor game design 101.

WHERE IS CHARLES LEE!?!?!?!?

I think it's a great game. However, as a long-time Tomb Raider fan, of both the original playstation games and the first reboot (Legend, Anniversary, Underworld), it's not a good Tomb Raider game at all.
