Games you regret buying because you were tricked into believing were good but ultimately ended up being shit thread.
I'll start: Dragon's Dogma.
>tfw pirated subnautica, papers please, enter the gungeon, super hexagon, rabi rabi, luftrausers, stardew valley, rogue legacy, nuclear throne and had fun with none of them
>tfw pirated serious sam 3 bfe and enjoyed the second half of it
>>342409583
Is the best way of getting to know that you have to make sure it's working now I am a beautiful day to day and night of the most important to me to the front office the same time I was just a little bit about me to the front office at my place to live a lot more fun than the average price.
>>342409583
Your taste is pretty shit OP, I'd recommend killing yourself and trying again.
>>342409583
I feel like dragon's dogma could've been so much better if they allowed you to customize all 4 pawns. As is, I feel absolutely no connection to the online pawns and all it did was make sure people would stop playing once servers shut down.
>>342409583
>shit taste
go back to playing your VNs, fat ass.

>>342410385
I've played a few hours of DD, does it pick up after you fight the hairy troll thing after delivering the Hydra's head? its really just kinda boring so far.
>>342409583
dark souls... sorry but its really bad and i cant even see the game even at brightest settings
>>342410834
cuck.
>>342409836
Wait what? Are bots getting back into my head of a cat to get to see the movie is a great time in my opinion
>>342409583
Its one of the best TP action games of all time.
>>342410834
That's exactly where it picks up, after you come back from the catacombs(or whatever the fuck it's called) I also dropped it at that point but then came back because my friend persuaded me. It gets pretty good
>>342410894
you need to get your eyes checked
I bought Dragon's Dogma twice and disliked it both times
>>342411056
ah damn really? I died to the troll/whatever and stopped for a while. I guess I'll try again.
None because I'm not retarded enough to buy something when there's a myriad of footage out there and ways to see if I will like it or not.
You should consider suicide OP, you're too fucking stupid to function properly.
>>342411056
You mean after you do that guild quest, where you have to go down that 5 mile long spiral staircase?
It gets even more boring after that.
>>342411056
Not OP but I just started DD like two days ago and that's exactly where I am now. I was really hoping it would pick up from here because I was finding it a little dull so far. I guess I'll keep pushing along.
>DD pros:
the core combat system for everyone but melee classes is amazing
the pawn system is neat
every big monster feels like a boss fight
>DD cons:
ugly as shit
dumb story
dumb quests
everything else is janky and is straight out of 2006
>>342409583
>>342409583
the thing that will always bother me with this game is
>stat grow is tied to the classes
who taught this was a good idea?
>>342409583
However dumb you might be is only hinted at by the fact that you assume to have been "tricked" into thinking that you would like the game, and also blame the game as well, instead of realizing that the game simply might not have ever been for you.
Something easily checked by watching a fucking youtube video.
And the cherry on top is that you needed to make a thread about it.
As I said, the depths of your idiocy are only roughly imaginable, but they are probably pretty deep.
>>342411138
So I should buy TW3?
>>342411136
I kept dying to it, then I made a Warrior and it's so much more enjoyable when you actually deal damage. Fighting dragons/drakes is amazing in that game.
>>342411192
wait melee is bad? isnt that what most people would be playing on their first playthrough? and isnt one of the big selling points the climbing system?
>>342411287
Yes
>>342411019
I'm so excited to go out with a lot of fun to play it the same first name is the only way
>>342411289
The one that starts with the shitty short sword? I think i traded that in for a greatsword and im still doing shit damage
>>342411287
maybe
>>342411287
Maybe
>>342411347
the climbing system is the same for just about everything, the real problem with melee is that the skills are repetitive and not nearly as interesting as spells
God only knows what retarded or hypocritical shit you like if you think Dragon's Dogma is bad.
>>342411287
can you repeat the question?
>>342411287
My friend has it. He said it was good
>>342411517
I meant the Greatsword one. I use two mage pawns, one with the elemental enchantments and one for healing/damaging spells.
You basically need the enchantments to deal damage.
>>342411138
>I HATE NEW STUFF
>I HATE NEW IDEIAS
>MAKE YOUR GAME COMPLETELY LIKE THIS OTHER GAMES OR ITS SHIT! SHIIIIIT!
>>342411138
>All those comparisons to games it's nothing like
It really doesn't matter if it's a game I like or not, but this kind of stuff always bothers me. And it's not like those games invented the open world gimmick, climbing, or any of that. Why not just say that its mechanics are flawed and explain why?

yeah I was originally going to make the main group of characters from Berserk, playing as Guts with Schierke and Farnese as mages then Serpico as a light fighter, but then I found out you can only customize 2 pawns. Kinda ruined shit for me.
Has anyone played the Dragon Age series? How's the character customization?
>>342409583
I am having a hard time getting into DD.
Doing a few quests around grand soren but the world feels kind of empty.
>>342409583
I'll see your Dragon's Dogma and raise you RDR.
>>342412209
I didn't like the voice actor for the main char. He just had a boring voice to me
It was more fun my second playthrough there's a lot of content that can be missed while you're barreling towards the end of the game. Like i missed the whole cult quest that takes you into the catacombs outside gran soren.
>>342412086
You have plenty of options with your looks, but there's only three races and classes to pick. Some of which are outright better than others. As for the overall series, first Dragon Age is only ok that's remembered highly for being the last "good" Bioware game, and the other two games suck.
>>342411191
To be honest, the game never picks up until the final boss.
There's only one good area in the game, it's Soulflayer Canyon.
BBI is alright, nothing fantastic but itt's the best part of the game.
There, I saved you 100 hours, the game never gets as good as people want you to believe, it was just overhyped by console players who don't know any better.
>>342412731
>DD has bad combat
>DD has bad graphics
>Say Skyrim is a good RPG
How to lose all your credibility.
Dark Souls.
Sloppy mechanics, Shit leveling system, pseudo difficulty, horrible map design, awful soundtrack, and literally never had an ounce of fun.
I will never understand the shit pile that is that game let alone how it got 2 more games.
>>342412731
how can people be so wrong
>>342412805
you just don't get it man
>>342412908
Dark Souls had some of the best level design (On a macro level) of any game I've ever played. There were plenty of secrets and hidden paths, and almost every area is connected to at least 2 others. Thats one of the biggest pros most people list about the game.
It is true that it was really unpolished tho. The 2nd one fixed a lot of issues but had worse world design and the 3rd brought back the good worlds that the 1st had. I'm really enjoying the 3rd one currently.
>>342412890
I cant fucking stand Skyrim's combat. Its so clunky and unnatural.
>>342409583
New Vegas for me
It is aimed at a really niche audience, and while i think is not a bad product overall i find it really boring. RPGs in general tend to dissapoint me, but NV was allways praised on /v/ so i had to try it out, came out as a really "meh" experience
Dark Souls
>>342412209
elaborate
>>342413687
Did you reach New Vegas?
The first few hours can be pretty boring if you don't know what you're doing
>>342409583
Shit taste: The thread
>>342412991
I thought 120 hours would have been enough to get it but I never managed to enjoy the game to its fullest. It felt like the game tried to be so much at once and ended up being alright to bad on everything.
Even the combat which people praise felt severely limited with only a half dozen skills available at once and a lack in enemy variety.
>>342413687
>>342413995
Yeah the beginning can be pretty slow, but if you're not into RPGs you probably shouldn't have bought one.
>>342414106
You played it about as much as I did and I see you also made a buff dwarf character, so I'll be civil.
The idea that it tried to be "so much at once" is incorrect and probably a product of marketing and hype.
What is it that it's trying to do? It's an open-world (not sandbox) action RPG. There's nothing extraneous tacked on in the process.
The combat is good if limited, especially if you main a warrior as I see you did, but you can freely change classes and are meant to do so.
The world is small but well crafted and, compared to almost any other RPG, incredibly realistic and consistent.
I won't keep rambling. I think DD is so polarizing because so much of what makes it great is pretty subtle, like the level design and the incredibly deep AI of pawns that isn't presented well at all but is there nonetheless.
Dragonage inquisition.
All of that false advertisement that they've done.

>>342414263
Well i played and loved DA:O, take that as you will, i did enjoy that one
I finished the game with Yes Man once, and i just coudn't care about the other factions, i didn't ignore them though, i reached each one and i felt like "Well, if i'm taking over New Vegas for myself, it would make sense to eliminate the competition" so i got myself into some huge firefights that i enjoyed but there were plenty of long stretches of time where nothing was happening and walking through the wasteland while pretty it really worn out its welcome some hours in
I started the game again after that and decided to help everyone and side with Mr. House (I don't like the NCR or the Legion) but after helping the BoS and reaching the Boomers my interest just went down and i stopped playing is like i had no reason to do anything after killing Benny
I feel like there is a lot of disconnected pieces in New Vegas to the point where it felt like "WHAT WILL THE COURIER FIND IN THIS EPISODE"?
I'm not saying it is bad, but it certainly did a good job boring me. The combat also felt sluggish and i didn't like the bullet-sponge enemies toward the end
>>342411019
I have to do something this weekend. I am a person for the first time too. The website, but I think it is the best way to get it.
>>342414879
I'll tell you the problem: New Vegas is trying to be a classic CRPG while being constrained by the open world meme.
If you liked DA:O then you do like RPGs, you just probably don't like open world shit which plagues modern RPGs. Try some older stuff.
Dragons dogma dark arisen
>>342414745
He's my pawn but I have played every class except the magic ones
Also, the world may be "small and well-crafted", it's pretty boring to explore and fight in. I found the combat to only really shine in the more linear areas, namely Soulflayer Canyon, the crypt under the city, some parts of BBI, that temple behind the waterfall where you gather some heavy as fuck stoneplates or something and that ruin where you hunt the griffin and alter the wizard, sorry I can't remember all the names. The overworld is super boring and felt like unnecessary padding with some random enemies copy-pasted everywhere.
I have 4 other friends who bought the game when it was released on PC and god knows if they've played worse stuff than this but I was the only one who reached the end, and then I kept pushing forward all the way to BBI 2.0, looking for that thrilling experience I never found.
It's not bad, I'd never say that, but it was average+ and only really gets interesting at the end and during the post game + BBI, that's if you can bear the boring storyline until you get to that part.
>>342416405
>[A] Bow Mode
What the fuck is that control scheme
>>342416545
Azerty keyboard
BBI was the best part of the game. It's especially fun to do low level playthroughs of that. Beating Gazer at like level 30 because of throwblasts is great.
Seriously throwblasts are way too strong.
>>342416405
You gave it more than a fair shake, so agree to disagree.
DD is a decent game but I hate Offline MMOs so I gave it a pass for the long run.
People who can put up with that shit have alotta fun, so no hate.
>>342411138
Who wrote this, holy shit
Have you met your skeleton removal quota today, /v/?

>>342410834
It never really picks up. Best things are the AI/pawns and some late game twists which are still stupid.
>>342414745
I just wish you could create multiple pawns. I want to make a party ofmy real-life friends.

>>342416405
>except the magic ones
The magic classes are the most fun, though. I don't usually play mages in RPGs but Dragon's Dogma makes you feel like a top tier sorcerer.
>>342410834
It depends on your class.
Mages are pretty boring from the start and are really just meant for to be a pawn class.
Fighters are ok and striders are pretty fun.
But once you get to the main city you can change your class at lvl 10 to more fun classes.
>>342409583
I had fun. Fuck you.
>stalker
every time there is a thread on /v/ everyone praises every aspect of it so I decided to try it. Looks and plays like shit, no fucking idea whats going on, translation is terrible, I fall down some hole then this fucking moleman starts slurping and grunting while cheesy heavy metal plays and he flops towards me. Cant believe I fell for this fucking meme. The only way this game could be good is if it was modded so heavily you couldnt even tell it was STALKER
>>342409583
fug you OP, the game is great
I fell for the meme and don't regret it at all.

Other than bugfixes and shit, of course.
Dragons Dogma was genuinely fucking shit
Only 2 reasons it was hyped, desperate PC shitters who are too poor to afford other consoles, and muh soulz fans who were in desperate need for anything remotely souls-like
>>342424271
How about 3)People who bought it on Xbox 360 or PS3 who want to play it at above 25 fps and also want an actual sequel?

>wanting to play a shit game again at a better framerate
suit yourself friend
>>342412053
I intend to buy horizon. Stay mad and salty about hating games.
>>342414106
I don't think Dragon's Dogma tried to be anything spectacular, it wasn't trying to be a AAA IP to compete with Western AAA titles. It wasn't going for the more grim, realistic approach like Dark Souls combat, or its grim world. Definitely wasn't going for an interactive movie angle but does have some cinematic skills, especially magic.
Its just a slap of generic low fantasy paint over metaphysics and DMC gameplay.

>cool storylines of various characters, once fully upgraded, the cars all looked differently and played differently, allowing for a ton of replayability
I was the original Twisted Metal and TM2 kid, and this was way better, probably the best game of the series that captured the best most fun parts of vehicular combat just right
>really want to call you names, but can't cause never played the first V8 and for all I know it might be shit
Pretty sure some of these are from bundles but: CS:GO , dark souls, thief reboot, medal of honour reboot, braid
>>342427389
Don't forget the god tier soundtrack.
>>342409583
I kinda feel the same. DD had decent fast combat but everything else about the game was pretty bad.
The world was small and uninteresting. The characters all had an uncanny valley effect going on. The story was garbage.
And the game really wasn't challenging. I got through all the content without any hassle and only BBI offered any challenge.
Its an okay game but not this "hurr DD is muh best 10 of all time".
>>342427398

I think total biscuit said thief was decent and that it's just nostalgiafags hating on it
I'll give you medal of honour though, I just couldn't believe how bad it was, it was like a bad PS2 game
>>342428283
Well the Medal of Honor reboot was just garbage, even comparing it to the franchises it was trying to emulate. I can't speak for Thief reboot, never tried it. Didn't look very interesting though
>>342412731
Is that guy implying that skyrim has a better combat system than DD?
