The VGU staff discuss their personal disappointments with games from the current generation.
Non-playable characters in certain games are meme material, thanks to their foolish behavior. These are the big-budget games with the dumbest NPCs.
Bethesda makes the most consistently stupid NPCs, like really bad... yet I still can't help but love playing their games. Guilty pleasure, I guess. *sigh* 😩
Every Bethesda game and Every Halo game. This list needed to have Cyberpunk somewhere.
Here are the most peaceful areas in games that are otherwise quite violent, offering players respite from chaos in the game world.
My first thought was the safe rooms in the resident evil series. When you hear that enchanting music you know you’re safe.
Afterlife in Cyberpunk 2077 is a peaceful area? Erm, hands down and very hard to miss, Misty Olszewski's Esoterica is the absolute epitome of peaceful areas in that game.
The "last of us" deer location i found to be a welcoming respite. It was nice to not have someone trying to eat me.
With the recent reveal of Assassin’s Creed Mirage and the promise that the series will return to its roots, there hasn’t been a better time to get stuck into Assassin’s Creed’s back catalog, whether it’s replaying an old favorite or getting lost in previously looked-over classic.
I really enjoyed Assassins Creed 3. My only complaint was that I didn’t enjoy when I had to switch from Connor to Desmond. It’s a personal preference, but Connor’s story was just more fun for me.
On a side note, Black flag was the most enjoyable of the AC games I played.
Assassin's Creed. The game had great potential, and the first game was ok but the rest were executed horribly. The AI sux, you literally run through the game hitting the attack button over and over again to brain dead enemies, and the settings suck. Fighting pirates in part 4? Fighting the guy on the front cover of the Quaker oatmeal box in part 3? Seriously? An assasin's should not be fighting Benjamin freaking Franklin. The setting should have been in ancient Egypt, or feudal japan. The series doesn't even have a point anymore.
That thumbnail pretty much answers the question for me. Thank Gamefly for saving me from wasting $60 on that ish.
I have many
Haze........ just not fun
Too Human... What this game could've been (wrong developer)
Lair.... the reason I bought my launch ps3
Bionic Commando......Dreads? they screwed up the mechanics
I could go on and on but top of the list for me is probably Mass Effect...... after Mass Effect 1. They just turned it into a third person shooter. You didn't even need to use the RPG mechanics or grind out to get your gear.
For me this gen really sucked compared to NES-PS2 era. Games I enjoyed in the past wasn't good this gen.
GTA 4 was boring
Sports games were average
Wrestling sucked
MGS4- MGO was one my favorite highlight this gen. But the SP was disappointing. Way to much focus on story.
GOW: Ascension- Tried to implement multiplayer
Overall I give this gen a 7.5(and I might be generous)
Duke nukem........cant say much more...
