Brutal Legend immediately comes to mind because the trailers gave the impression it was an open-world game with Jack Black voicing the protagonist when it was actually a RTS with open world elements.

None of this thread comes anywhere close to Spore.

Nowhere near.

>>339950081
False, they didn't know what the fuck they were doing with the itemization, the combat becomes a chore when you realize every fight is the same two attacks, the tone shifts radically when you get to the police station, and the prison was a fuck awful slog.

It was only good on the resort before you realized you've seen everything it has to offer.

False, the only part of the game that can even remotely be called ungood is the tutorial where you can't play cooperatively and that only lasts 5 minutes

>“For Dark Souls 2, we don’t even expect any additional downloadable content because we want to deliver a full game, the full experience, to fans who purchase the package from day one," said Miyazoe in an interview with Edge.

Godus

Originally promoted as a successor to Populous with some Black & White thrown in, Peter Molyneux's triumphant return to the god game genre.

From day 1 turned out to be designed from the ground up as a mobile/tablet tap buy-card-packs-to-progress game.

I feel you. Not OP, but that is pretty stupid. Sure body kits are hot, but I want to go back to the days of mixing and matching aftermarket parts to make my dream cars. Game was decent, they're on the right step and it seems they're sticking with the two year dev cycle since next year the other one comes out

>>339950696
False, you are really just clinging to the co-op and ignoring the flaws in weapon degradation, enemy variation and numbers, and going from a more exotic setting to the same grey corridors with shooting found in dozens of other games.
>>
>>339950939
I did buy the game, along with my three other friends, and then we bought rip tide, and are going to buy the definitive edition along with dead island 2

I don't have to defend good co-op games bro

Spore.

Most of the picks in this thread are merely hyped games that disappointed in some way. Spore well and truly promised the moon and delivered nothing.

>literally the 3rd reply
>>
>>339950852
they just didn't deliver mission 51, the whole game was literally all they showed on footages.

Not their fault if people made a game in their heads and the final material was different from what your imagination expected it to be.
