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.

My problem with Skyward Sword from what I remember was that each enemy needed to be hit in a different specific way, so each individual enemy was a mini puzzle in itself. At the time I wasn't interested in something like that and I missed being able to just run up to a few baddies and slash through them. Plus, I didn't have enough room to properly use the wii mote plus and it kept desyncing every minute. I should give the remake a try.

    I like it so far, though the "hit enemies a specific way" is still kind of annoying. But it's a unique mechanic and doesn't feel overused, and there aren't a ton of enemies (at least not yet).

    I'm using the joystick, so the movements are pretty quick to do. But attacking in a specific way is very much a large part of the game.
