Personally there are a few games which left me very dissappointed, after hyping myself up for years in certain cases.
Divinity Original Sin: turns out I prefer more streamlined, less packed games (love Pillars of Eternity) and that coop play in a CRPG stresses me out.
Wasteland 2: I actually managed to finish this one but secretly I admit I was hoping for a better Fallout which I didn’t really get. New Vegas did the cowboy theme much better.
INSIDE: while the design was cool, it was just a ton of boring, easy puzzles in comparison to LIMBO, its predecessor.
I had them same thing at the start however 2nd time was a complete change.
Played bit different though. Played on PC with a Trainer and made it entirely easy for myself. Strictly played for the story and the gorgeousness of the mountains, snow and the whole chaotic mess that unleashes eventually.
Really glad I did because it was a great experience and can’t wait for the sequel. Will do the same thing.
After all gaming should be for enjoyment!
Same experience! Dropped it the first time. Too slow paced. And I was trying to min-max, play on medium, read a bunch of walkthroughs and then gave up.
Decided to go all in during the Directors Cut. Turned it on easy so I was one hitting everythhing, ignored all the walkthroughs and just absorb myself into the world.
And it’s great! Who would have thought that in a game where you fight ghost babies, and bring supplies to random famous-y people, my favorite thing would be to build a interstate highway?
Easily 100+ hours and it’s a “I totally understand if you don’t like it” game.
