It's gotta be a tie between Dying Light and Warriors Orochi 4. Neither one of those got nearly close to finishing.

Far Cry 5 is probably the worst PS4 game I’ve bought. Even Jedi Fallen Order was more enjoyable to me than that.

I like Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture but I assume to others that’s the obvious worst choice in my library

I still think about Anthem, that title was suppose to get a massive overhaul but just kinda quietly disappeared I think and theres been nothing on it since. That is the case for UBISofts Ghost Recon Breakpoint, they were promising a huge overhaul of everything and then that never materialized.

Breakpoint got Ghost Experience patch and AI partners now so it already got more support than Anthem. Hell, Breakpoint might be even playable now to the point that I'm giving it a chance after really liking Wildlands.

Jedi: Fallen Order is the only PS4 game I ever played that felt like I had just completely wasted all my time.

Yeah thinking back on it this is probably a fair assessment of it IMO. I kind of enjoyed it but I felt like I wasted my time when it was over, then I played Sekiro immediately after it and felt like a fool.

Oh man gently caress Rapture I really wanted to like that game but it's like a 3 hour experience of slowly lumbering around a sleepy British town listening to the spirit of a woman angry about her marriage interspersed with vague lore about the phenomenon.

I bought Agents of Mayhem for £5 off eBay because Saints Row was pretty ok despite the sharp downward trajectory of the franchise from 2 onwards.

I would have had a better time setting that fiver on fire.

I pre-ordered it for $60 because of how much I loved SR4. Imagine my feelings of joy.

We Happy Few. The gameplay was alternatively a pain in the rear end and too easy and simple. I only beat it because I really wanted to know the central mystery box secret setting up the game. Newsflash, the developers clearly didn't know either. The ending is basically them shrugging their shoulders JJ Abrams style.

When you get to Saejima's part and you realize it's another prison break, don't despair. Yes, it's a low point, but it improves very quickly and then you get to have mountain man times and it rules again.

I love how in 2020 where movie adaptations are almost slavishly devoted to the source material, Paul W.S. Anderson is making a Monster Hunter movie that revolves around the US Marines and stars Milla Jovovich. He's the last director still trying to make things that fans will surely hate and barely recognize. It's so gloriously 1997.

The funny thing is that every crossover in MHW works on isekai rules and US Marines aren't the weirdest folks to take a portal and end up in the Monster Hunter World.

Also the trailer just straight-up uses the sound clips for Black Diablos directly from the game, already making it one of the Most Authentic Adaptations ever

No, they definitely are. Here, I'll list some MHW crossovers, you tell me which one stands out:

Street Fighter V
Horizon Zero Dawn
The United States Marine Corps
Devil May Cry
Universal Studios Japan
Assassin's Creed

I think I was always going to finish nier automata and my saying I was considering otherwise was more commentary on my thoughts while playing it than anything else really. I don't care about people thinking my opinion on the game would be invalid if I dont finish the game but it deserves a fair shake and perhaps the ending of the game will alter my opinion on the work as a whole.

Fair warning, even after you finish it people itt are still not going to let up on you until you finish it in the way they want you to.

Doesn't seem like people were very happy with the changes on the whole.

It routes the chat system trough the text chat system. And the text chat system is all type of terrible. And they deleted important features, like use the chat list to join a friend game. Something that helped games with a weak mm system.

They can't really fix text chats, they will always be a place for spam and spammers. So linking both systems is like heh!.

Rapture is a prettier environment than most people can get to without driving for a fair bit.

OTOH, most people can slow-walk faster than the player in Rapture runs, and ~90% of the cast are unsympathetic and listening to them is a chore.
