Is there a game that you've been very patient for, which turned out to be dissappointing when you finally started playing it? (lemm.ee)

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 wasn’t the biggest fan of GoW 2018 when I played it on PC. The combat is quite bad, especially compared to the PS2 titles. Not sure why they thought it was a great idea to give the game third person shooter controls and place the camera right behind Kratos’ ass so you don’t see a damn thing.

Lost count of the number of times I’ve been hit by insta kill projectiles I couldn’t see because Kratos is blocking the entire view. It felt like I was fighting the camera controls more than the actual enemies.

    Weird. I suck at games and didn't die very often in GoW 2018. I do play on easy, but oh well.

    Also, definitely far from the worst-camera game for me. I do recall a few moments, but nothing that stuck with me.

    Maybe it's the PC version that sucked bad? I had the PS4 version.
