VGChartz's Brand J Wysocki: "Disappointing is a particularly interesting and subjective category. Although in truth it’s really not much, if any, less subjective than 'Best'. That segues nicely into something that warrants being addressed - as you look through some of our other Game of the Year articles, you may notice certain games appearing on those lists as well as this one. As counterintuitive (or even outright wrong) as that may seem, it speaks to the aforementioned subjectivity, as well as the diversity of our staff and audience.
Disappointment is correlated to expectations, and expectations are a product of any number of factors, most of which are idiosyncratic. Beyond that, there are so many variables in how each game is ultimately experienced and enjoyed. A quick and fitting example would be performance and other technical issues that may be unique to a particular platform."
BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.
Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.
I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.
It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.
Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.
I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
Source code for CD Projekt's action role-playing games The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 have allegedly been compromised.
Well they are using unreal engine now thanks to there work culture and horrific job on making cyberpunk so for the future no impact.
But it will be interesting to see what mods will be made

7 disagrees shows how many look at one dlc that had a rip off fight from ghost in the shell and goes wow what a goat team i love cdpr while ignoring that they only made 2 games that were good witcher 2/3 in 20yrs.
But its a new world we want a criminal that support's legal murder as president/support shoplifting love toxic work environments and have a mass casualty event every other day.
I’ll admit I didn’t play it at launch, but Cyberpunk 2077 is a really good game now.
And who the hell knows what you’re even going on about in your second paragraph here.
Wait a min...I swear to god CP2077's source code got leaked before. CDPR needs to stop using "password123" for all their accounts 😅
This is the same leak the threat actors have been trying to sell the source code after cd project didn't pay the ransom.
They didn't manage to sell the source code to any company largely because it would be unethical for say EA to buy it so the threat actors failed to find a buyer.
After they failed to make any money they went through with their threat of simply giving it away.
Cyberpunk 2077's launch resulted in a loss of goodwill with gamers, but there is a way to earn it back with the upcoming sequel.
They will need to add everything they promised in the first one and not over promise on the second one.
They also need to drop esg then hire employees that have knowledge not hire them because they have a set of tits.
Official video they hired people to fill the esg clipboard
As somebody who has been playing the tabletop games since the 90s and was let down on launch by my PS4 version, you can bet I'm not going the preorder any sequel.
3rd person option, and everything else that was originally promised. Next don't force agenda driven naratives. Finally, release a finished product without need for day one patches.
TLOU 2 and Cyberpunk don't belong in such a list.
Warcraft III: Reforged came out so early last year that I forgot it even came out in 2020.
Lol at TLOU2 being compared to the broken POS that is Cyberpunk for disappointing game of the year.
Those 2 don’t belong anywhere near each other
Its an opinion, but putting there TLOU2 is just stupid. Even if you dont like the story, it wasnt one of the most disapointing games of 2020. Of course that for everybody that wanted another pink story..., but in that reality the story makes perfect sense. Sooner or later you will pay the price of what you did. This was the only game last year able to move me in terms of emotions. beside that, it got next gen graphics and runs without problems on PS4 (OG). Just crazy.
The Last Of Us 2 had Great, Graphics, Gameplay, Sound design (for the most part) and almost glitch free. But that story was so garbage it almost negates all the positives of the game. Even with being able to skip cut scenes the game is a drag to playthrough again. The Narrative of the game is a FAIL. Everything else is pretty good though.
