This. People comment like a bad game shot their dog.

[@imALazyPanda]

And this is on both sides, people who like the game thinking someone saying its not for them is calling the game terrible and people who don't like the game calling a game objectively bad. Also what people consider terrible. Me and my friend go "dumpster diving" every so often and play actual shovelware, most of the "worst games ever" in peoples heads are actually mediocre at worst. I've played legitimate 1s or 2s out of 10, the games that literally don't start or the controls just don't work.

[@fadingghost9723]

​@@imALazyPanda yup, Dark Souls 2 taught me this. The amount of people I've seen act like criticizing the game was akin to slapping their mother, while others who genuinely like the game would be treated like they were subhuman by people who hate it is mind boggling lol

Yes, and that goes both ways, when these people like something it becomes the best thing ever with 0 flaws, and they actually get mad if you say that thing is bad.

Callisto protocol wasn't as good as I'd hoped but it definitely wasn't as bad as some said.

[@DevicCypher]

It wasn’t bad at all. It could have been a bit better story wise but other than that it was a fun solid game. I wish the main character was alive in the dlc and you play a big fight at the end where he eventually loses like in halo reach. Make his sacrifice at the end of the main game mean something instead of being torn apart off screen

[@jaymoore5407]

Its not bad, I personally am currently enjoying it and I also have dead space remake. I won't compare the two because I am enjoying them for what they are. Callisto is very entertaining

[@mcgoogaming6621]

I also agree. I have never played the dead space series before diving into Callisto so i didnt have any expectations at all. Actually i wasnt a game i looked especially forward to and only got i because i could and because i am making a Playthrough channel. But when i finally got into the game. Wauv i actually think it was good .

[@EmpressInYellow]

My main issue with The Callisto Protocol is that, for all it was attempting to tap into Dead Space nostalgia, the enemies are utterly forgettable. Think about Dead Space and how iconic different enemy types are - the slashers, obviously, but also the leapers, the lurkers, etc. You can recognize them each just by their silhouette. Callisto Protocol, by contrast, mostly has “guy with skin condition of varying severities” and “dude with two heads”. It is visually very impressive, though.

[@MartianHomebody]

Inquisition is such an interesting game to be in this conversation. Cause while I agree that the discourse has collapsed around it by this point, that game won many GOTY awards the year it came out. It's wild that a game that was so successful could now be widely considered "bad" partly because of how contrarian *some of the fandom has become in recent years. EDIT: if you legitimately didn't like the game, your opinion is valid. I've heard enough about it now. You don't need to tell me. But feel free if it's really eating at you.

[@matebakk5187]

I maybe biased as I consider it to be the best DA game yet... But even if you don't like it just on technical level it is certainly better than DA 2 (compared to it's era of course) and certainly was at least an average to good game. Haters going to hate I guess.

[@MartianHomebody]

@@matebakk5187 Agreed. Personally, it's my favorite one out of the series. I love how customizable the party can be, and I'm a sucker for that stuff. So I agree Origins is probably "more important" but Inquisition just hit for me really hard. And the DLCs are fantastic.

[@robinmattheussen2395]

I do think it's a shame that you assume that people call it "bad" purely because they want to be contrarian. Clearly this is not the case. I recently (two months ago) played it for the first time, and I ended up putting 65 hours into it. If I wasn't willing to give the game a fair chance, I wouldn't have put that time into it. But despite putting my best foot forward, I have to say that I personally found it to be a really awful game. If I was just a hater with a predetermined opinion, I wouldn't have bothered with finishing the game like I did. The only reason I finished the game is so that I could wrap it up and form a coherent opinion of it on my own. I think you'll just have to accept that there are many people who genuinely do not like this game. I think being a contrarian and hating the game for the sake of it is honestly just as bad a rejecting other people opinions offhand because you can't believe there are people who just didn't get the enjoyment out of it you did. That's just not fair and not productive. You also claim that it is wild that such a successful game can now be considered "bad". That's honestly not wild at all. Many games are successful commercially and critically while still being very divisive. Just take DA2 for example. That did pretty well with critics and sold quite well too. But it was almost instantly maligned by fans upon its release. It's not that uncommon at all. Or take Monster Hunter World. That's one of Capcom's best selling games of all time, was critically acclaimed, and is hated with a passion by a significant portion of the fanbase (I do not agree with that, but I cannot take away their right to their own opinions). Sony dropped Demon's Souls and didn't even want to publish it outside of Japan because executives thought it was an awful game, but it became an instant cult classic upon release and is now part of a series of some of the most popular games in video game history. These things happen all the time.

[@MartianHomebody]

@@robinmattheussen2395 I accept that there are people out there, like yourself, that legitimately didn't like it. Didn't say there wasn't. You're putting a lot more weight and scrutiny into the wording of my comment than even I did. If your opinion of the game isn't coming from a contrarian place, then I clearly wasn't referring to you. Relax.

As long as the product in question is not legitimately problematic, harmful and/or disgusting, I just play and experience what makes me happy. If I enjoy something, I enjoy it. If I don't, I don't. If people can't accept that, that's their problem. Everyone has their preferences and while everyone is free to criticize, and point out legitimate issues, everyone also has a right to how THEY feel about a game. And that shouldn't be taken away.

[@KoongYe]

I feel so bad about Callisto Protocol. It's one of those cases where bad launch state ruined everything. There's obviously alot of effort put into the game.

[@DisDatK9]

For PC*. Not excusing the launch, but on PS5 it ran perfectly. Makes me think they designed it mainly for the PS5. I personally quite enjoyed it, it had its problems but people had massive unmeetable expectations on the face of it. The only real wish I had for it was more deep diving into the story. It had a ton of allusion to greater things, but it didn't expand on really any of them (except for the virus origins.)

[@keijijohnson9754]

It's the same thing with Saint's Row: Self Made ecru it had a lot more going against it when it comes to its controversies. A shame since the game was never that bad to begin with either.

It doesn't help either that this came out a month before the Dead Space remake launched, which was what the creators of this worked on before leaving EA .

Inquisition is still underrated in my book. I've replayed Origins multiple times, a true 10/10 game in my book, but Inquisition tried a lot of new things, some failed, some succeeded, but it's just a TON of fun, with a lot of solid content, quests and world building/exploration.

[@paulnavales6469]

I wanted to love Inquisition and look past its faults like I did with DA2, but I just cant. The open world and mmo-like mechanics put me off the game completely. Once I was done with the main quest I did some of Hakon and never continued further. I didn't touch The Descent and Tresspasser. I was hoping to wait it out where I forgot what happened mostly in the game but EA firing all Bioware veteran devs snuffed out all hopes of me coming back to it again. Maybe someday, but not now.

[@SphericAlpha]

@@paulnavales6469 It's a slow trog, but I like it way more in comparison to DA2, and I believe they were on a better track, but should've tried to get closer to DA:O in terms of mechanics and world building.

A weird one but i act really liked mafia 3. While i like the setting, time period and story the bigger reason is that i grew up poor and have never really been able to travel and see any of the places games take place in, in real life. But because one of my childhood best friends was originally from Louisiana, i DID get to go to new orleans with him and his family twice! Ill never forget playing mafia 3 and running across the french quarter/markets and thinking “if this is over here, i bet bourbon street is this direction” and i found it immediately on my first try and that was SUCH a cool feeling - being able to navigate a video game world by a real world memory. Also, i really like games where you hunt down bosses and/or enemy captains from a hierarchy. Some examples of that are - mafia 3, shadow of mordor/war, assassins creed odyssey (loved it as a full blown rpg), and of course, the old mercenaries games. While its not in depth enjoy to really capture me, i do like hunting fugitives in rise of the ronin right now. OH and i absolutely loved doing the optional hunts im final fantasy 12 (i have fairly limited jrpg experience but this one is my favorite!)

@@matebakk5187 I recently replayed Planescape for the first time in a very long time (I usually have a very good memory when it comes to video games so I tend to wait long times between replaying), and it completely holds up 100%. Since it's primarily a story-driven game, and the writing is still much better than what you'd find in most modern games, it really hasn't aged at all. And the places you visit or so unique and atmospheric, nothing really comes close honestly. Tides has some redeeming qualities, but ultimately it is a failure I believe. I don't really compare it to Planescape because the games honestly have almost nothing in common. You can certainly see that the game tried, but it's also clear that it just didn't receive nearly enough love from the developer. It needed a lot more time in the oven IMO.

My own hot take has always been that Dragon Age 2 is my favorite Dragon Age game despite it's shortcomings. I love how character driven the story is, and it helps that the majority of characters are fantastic. The companions interactions with each other is also a nice touch. That world felt "alive" when it came to it's portrayal of story, events and characters. I'm also one of the few people it seems who didn't mind Hinterlands in Inquisition.

[@chrislawrence6701]

I was on the DA2 hate train when it first launched, since it wasn't DA:O anymore. But years later coming back to it I really came to love it. The dialogue and banter in particular is just so great to listen to.

2 has the best characterr writing and has unique character skills too. Character writing is usually superior to world writing to me too.

[@utkarshgaur1942]

Great characters, great themes, and I loved the introduction of cross-class combos. Did I miss the tactical, top-down camera and crisp companion flowcharts of DA:O? Yes. But Dragon Age 2 did more interesting things with the narrative than Origins, even though no one can accuse Origins of being bland either.

[@hi123452008]

DA2 is good, its main problem is how rushed it was. The amount of asset reuse detracts from what is otherwise a great game. Imo DAO > DA2 > DAI. Not that DAI is _bad,_ but the constant "bring me 20 bear asses" single-player-MMO-style fetch quests rubbed me the wrong way.

[@toniviskari417]

While Dragon Age 2 has a lot of flaws, and that dev time they were given is just staggering, it still one of my favorite gaming experiences. To me, the biggest thing with, aside from the crunched dev cycle, is that it was just at least a decade ahead of its time with what it was trying to do and the story it told. Which I think is reflected on how massively the response to it and how it is discussed has changed over the years. Also, not only is the character gallery it creates magnificent, but I still count three antagonists from that game among the best I've encountered in gaming. Finally agreed on the Hinterlands as I would argue that it was the sole location in DAI where the story conflict actually felt realized in the area. This was due to their open world/exploration approach which meant that the locations had to be separated from the central storylines, which led to a weird sense of detachment between exploration and the main story.

[@StoryModeGamer-77]

I absolutely loved starfield and after becoming starborn it made me want to keep going. I watched a lot of gameplay and walkthrough videos and was flabbergasted at how some people play this game. I just couldn’t believe it. No wonder they call it trash. Completely missing out on the majority of the games content and never picking up how to really play even towards the end. My experience the first time was phenomenal and never once ran into a big or crash. There’s so much to this world. I basically have half a planet colonized with the base building feature and making so much money doing so. There’s secrets on all these “bland” planets that are so in depth and it’s mind blowing to me that people dismiss this. Like stop fanboying over who made it, what you wanted it to be and just play the dam game like you did as a kid. I personally try all the “bad games” and try and find all the good in them and it’s opened up my world of gaming. But people hear one review and instantly form a bs opinion.

Thanks for acknowledging Starfield - undoubtedly one of the most rage-baited games of all time. A game that does *a lot* of things *very well* , but doesn’t do any single thing exceptionally well. An objectively better than average game, that’s been treated like a manure pile by ‘those parts of the Internet’. Also: DA:I and Outer Worlds are both among my favorite games, having done multiple playthroughs of both!

[@RaoulGigondas]

I think what it boils down to is expectations. I haaaaated Fallout 4 but it's a me issue, I was coming in fresh from FNV and I have come to recognize that many things were done right in that game (like gunplay), but those were the bits I didn't care about, while the bits I did care about (like writing) were basically afterthoughts. Ultimately, if you come in with high expectations you made for yourself, it's on you. However, if the *company* set up these expectations, as in the case of Starfield, it's absolutely on them.

I feel similarly about Outer Worlds. I enjoyed it, but it just needs to be bigger. Not necessarily a sprawling 100hr+ game like other RPGs, but just “more.” I found the gear/loot, enemies, and exploration somewhat lacking. Also, there weren’t any particularly memorable choices to redo and devote whole playthroughs to, so the replay value was limited for me. Nonetheless, Obsidian has a very solid foundation to build upon for their sequel.

[@elasmojones]

It's like they never finished it. Your choices don't matter, ends abruptly (although I haven't played the dlc after original ended). I would recommend Mass Effect Andromeda over Outer Worlds.

[@SilortheBlade]

Starfield was a fun game. I tell people if you like Fallout 3 beyond you will like Starfield. Don't think it's elite dangerous or no man's sky. The advertising might have given that impression, but the aspects that are similar to those games are not very fleshed out. But if you like meeting characters and doing missions it's a lot of fun.

[@dyrcosis]

I won't pass judgement on Starfield until I've actually played it. What put me off buying it was the ridiculous price they set it at (and so many other AAA publishers are now doing) . At minimum, it'll need to go on sale for 50% before I consider getting it. At which point, I'm sure I'll find something to enjoy. Broken Roads is on my Steam wishlist and despite whatever negative reviews it received, I fully intend on buying and playing it at some point. The Callisto Protocol isn't my kind of game so I never gave it much thought. I only got maybe a quarter of the way through DragonAge Inquisition before I got distracted by another game. I don't recall why I never got back to it. Some of the systems were a bit clunky (like the weapon/armor crafting and a map or two was a tad confusing) but for the most part I was enjoying the game. I was a huge fan of DA Origins and while I liked the story in DA2, I didn't care for the lazy, slightly redecorated but obviously overly reused settings. Not sure if I'll ever get back to Inquisition since the surprise reveal was spoiled for me. Also, EA's App of the moment is always annoying. As for The Outer Worlds, I never really forgave Obsidian for it being an Epic exclusive for such a long time. By the time it came to Steam, I was simply no longer interested. I might give it a chance eventually but there's only so much time I dedicate for gaming.

[@orbbb24]

Starfield is a good game at $35 and you'll get some enjoyment out of it. It is awfully mediocre at $70. For me, I played for 20 hours and then just never felt the want to pick it up again. I did enjoy my 20 hours though.

[@ForeheadForesight]

@@orbbb24 I had the same experience but stretched out to 40 hours.

Think I also feel like i would want to start over which is what keeps me from picking up where i left off. i want to remember what all i was doing before so i think it just requires full focus when playing it. i do this with too many games and end up not finishing them lol

I love Kingdoms of Amalur: The Reckoning (or Re-reckoning as it is now). It's repetitive, ridiculous, the worldbuilding is kinda meh, but I love it, and I don't really know why. I think it's because, while it isn't the second coming of anything, it's also not horrible? Exploring the world is decent, the characters are alright, the combat is fun, you can get really good at it while not feeling like it's too easy or you didn't work for it, and you can change your build easily enough. A solid 6/7 out of ten on all accounts, unlike most "good" games, that stumble on exploration, characters, story, quests or combat, while being good at the others.

Conquest also had some seriously good gameplay and challenge to it. Probably best in the series. (That said, "Shadows of Valentia" is definitely tied with it for favourite.)

Carving out your own story is usually where the fun is at with Starfield. Personally, I really enjoyed the wandering freelance bounty hunter angle since it leaned into what the game did well. Disabling ships, zero g boarding actions, looting contraband, eventually getting caught red handed and coerced into becoming a criminal informant made for a more memorable story than anything to do with the relics. Mods might end up having just as much draw as DLC in the long run, but that feels quite a ways off. If a modding community engages with something like Fallout 4 to the point that we're getting expansion sized mods like Fallout London a decade after release, there's a lot of potential for Starfield.

[@Spenzor545]

I tried playing through Inquisition again. Its definitely not bad but I really don't like the Open World\MMORPG elements. I generally don't like Open World games since I think they have bloated content. I didn't care for BOTW and Elden Ring was good on the first run-through but is work on consecutive run-throughs. Dragon Age Inquisition felt like a chore as do *most* open world games. Outerworlds was too easy as it wanted to focus on the RPG elements more than the combat elements.

As the average The Outer Worlds enjoyer (and avid watcher of Tim Cain on games) I must protest! TOW is not the bad game, even with ' ' , but I don't deny it is quite flawed (finished it 4 times). It is perfectly average but I think various players put the bar too high. Plus you like Starfield so your taste is skewed somewhat :P

[@barachiel212]

It wasn't that players put the bar too high. The marketing and the early reviews all shilled the game as the 2nd Coming of New Vegas, and it was FAR from that. The devs overhyped and the press oversold, so the backlash was inevitable. And I too, am a TOW enjoyer. I like the game. I hope TOW2 lives up to its potential.

[@gwoody4003]

I enjoyed Homefront: The Revolution Thats my guilty pleasure lol. It has a certain atmosphere, a feeling that other games can't manage when presenting that sort of hopeless scenario. Its what Division 2 couldn't do. Or Far Cry 6. Its reminded me of Half Life 2. It could have been better, but it was not as bad as many people felt it was. Though to be fair, its had a few patches and improvements since release, and I did not pay full price. I would have a different opinion if I looked forward to this game, paid full price and got what we got. I think thats what makes a lot of peoole declare a game "bad". What they really mean is "I was disapointed for $60 and the hype that came before it."

Maybe I finish it one day anyway. Last but not least DA:I. Well, after EA took over Bioware I got the impression games were more developed towards the next hype and with consoles in mind. DA:I veers mostly away from the tighter story-telling of the predecessors by trying to create more of an open world. Mixed feelings and maybe one day I complete it... Maybe.
