I'm pretty skeptical about most vidya and don't fall into hype so I rarely get disappointed.

but, Bioshock Infinite blindsided me.

Shoveled agenda pushing.
Fuckloads of bugs.
Fights are boring in general with just lots of mook enemies.
Final boss is decided on a dialogue choice as either impossible to lose or stupidly hard.
Story overall makes no sense.
Connection to BG2 makes no sense in the fucking slightest.
Characters changed because >men are silly and evil
Transgender character in a setting where gender dysphoria makes no sense because you can just change your gender properly.
uhhh, the voices for characters they added themselves were changed and weirdly different.
The newer characters added suck ass or you have to be a dick to them if you don't want to date them.
The male character added is shat on because he's a male and the first response to him hitting on you as a female PC is "psssh nothing personnel" tier shit.
Linear as fuck.
The UI changes are shit.
Changes made in favour of ipad users over pc users.

What I don't understand is why this was the case when the problem could be so easily solved. All they would have had to do is shift perspective when you got to the flaming lobby. Instead of sticking with venom, the camera now follows Big Boss as you sneak outside to commandeer an ambulance (which, thanks to the rest of the game, you now know how to drive). Still would've reused a shitload of assets, but at least there would have been SOME justification for playing through the whole damn thing again.

It's designed like fucking shit is what it is.

Nearly every game mentioned in this thread was some fun in one way or another on your own. It wasn't a complete waste of time and money where it felt I was playing nothing.
The driving was shit.
The enemies are all repetitive.
The bosses were boring.
The campaign is nonexisting

And it's only ''fun'' with friends?
Worst fucking game I've ever played.

Nothing is more disappointing from expecting nothing and still getting shit. With everything else, you could see some potential. Infinite is shit but you could tell that it was scrapped and changed. MGSV was fucked by Konami. ME3 was fucked due to not having enough time to play it.

But Borderlands? It's hyped as being cool and fun when there's nothing at all.
Fuck everything about it.

It was definitely a departure from the first but it was still enjoyable in its own right. The new shooting and magic mechanics were actually pretty good and made gameplay a lot smoother, even though I missed two-handed weapons from the first Fable.

>>345177996
Naw dawg. Every shitty decision made in Fable 3 was precipitated in Fable 2. Dumbing down an already simple combat system, removing armor bonuses in favor of playing dress-up for no real benefit, changing the game from being very, very difficult to die in to impossible to die in, changing the atmosphere to oh-so-quirky industrial revolution England (Albion, whatever, same shit), there being absolutely no reason to choose the evil ending, etc.

And the ending still leaves a terrible taste in my mouth all these years later. I sat there listening to the villain after pulling out the music box because I thought I was being offered the evil ending of joining him or at least usurping him. My reward for that was having the smarmy piece of shit companion shoot him in the face and mock me for not doing it sooner. It is, to this day, the worst ending of any game I can think of because of its missed potential and outright contempt for the player.

I've got to disagree with you, dude. I've got 120 hours played on Borderlands, my top 6th most played on Steam, and I might have even more total time, since I initially got it on CD.
I haven't played it in forever, and could probably go for another playthrough with my friends. I sure as hell wouldn't play it alone, it's definitely designed for co-op. Some of my friends seem to enjoy the singleplayer, though.

Dead Space 1 was worse honestly.

Twilight Princess. I was so, so excited for that shit. For some reason I thought gritty was the answer to modernizing Zelda. But then I played it. It was the first Zelda where I honestly didn't feel like i was experiencing anything knew conceptually, and everything in the game felt like it was deliberately engineered to drain your enthusiasm bit by bit, like collecting teardrops as a way to preview the upcoming area, ruining any sense of exploration along the way.

See, I don't think it was. TLC certainly was, what with its epin mushroom sidequest and killing the guildmaster in a cutscene after all the build-up, etc, but the original was mostly serious. There was the occasional humorous flavor text like how leather armor is best used at kinky parties, but overall the game was played fairly straight. That's not to say I wouldn't have welcomed a little more comic relief, but they just went too far to the other side of the spectrum.

Is this bait or do you have any real reason to have been disappointed in these?
Dark Souls 3 was the opposite of a disappointment. DS2 was a real disappointment, and since 3 was actually better than it, I couldn't be disappointed. It still doesn't live up to DS1.
But why are you disappointed in mgrr? Did you hype it too hard?

Maybe Destiny. I absolutely could not believe the game was the way it was after that huge wait and hype train. Shit, even without the hype, it's still one of the worst games ever made. It's complete garbage.

Bloodborne running at 30fps was another big disappointment for me. I was just positive it would be 60 and then it came out and it was unplayable.

MGSV.
I knew deep down something wouldn't be right about the game, and I actively tried not to buy into the hype, but MGS is my favorite series so even by ignoring just about everything about it before release I was still let down.
Fucking awful story even by MGS standards, it makes 4 look like a fucking masterpiece, same shit gameplay as fucking peace walker, and absolutely no satisfaction at the end because you're not even the real fucking boss.
Such wasted potential.
MGO3 wasn't even close to being as good as MGO2 either.

No it isn't. It's not an ending, it was a cop-out for Bioware to take advantage of and then actually focus on writing something coherent. The end will always be shit because "muh autistic integrity", something that only started being parroted around the ending.

MGSV was a weird trip of mixed-feelings from me, but I came to the conclusion that I didn't mind the ending. I minded that it WAS the ending. The final shot of the series wasn't a boss fight or anything satisfying. It was just a retread of the first boring fucking mission followed up by having to listen to fucking audio logs for the rest..

As mad as Bioshock and Mass Effect 3 got me nothing will ever get me as nuclear mad at MGS5 got me. How people defend that game is beyond me

Mass Effect 3. Almost nothing redeemable that isn't a carryover of the engine from 2.

Halo 4 comes as a closes second, not a terrible game but a huge negative difference between that previous games.

Most recent was MGSV, a great game that I expected to be GOAT and actually have a good story

Sometimes that can be positive. Skyrim on console took anger from me. I can no longer get mad at video games.

>>345181057
the thing is the actual gameplay is beyond solid. But it's not fucking finished and Kojima kept adding in features that no one asked for and never fucking finished the main story missions.

LIKE HOW DO YOU NOT PRIORITIZE THE MAIN STORY MISSIONS JESUS CHRIST

I will still never forgive Konami for the petty bullshit they pulled but Kojima is not off the hook either.

I can handle a Zelda game being a bit on the sub-par side, but this shit was infuriating.

I think the core movement and stealth is good but the transversal of the open world sucks. Also it's half a fucking game.

Absolutely Fallout 4. It removed all of the RPG elements of the series. It's more like an interactive shooter. I loved Red Dead Redemption, but RDR had an incredible and moving story, a rich back story for the main character, and otherwise just masterful creation. Fallout's main character is too bland to be interesting, but too specific to really be an avatar of the player. The dialogue, the short play time, there were so many things wrong with the game. Fallout 4 isn't a bad game in and of itself, but it is a horrible Bethesda game. I would give it a 3/10 for what should have been an easy 9 or 10/10.
>>
>>345181784
Yeah open world sucks but I feel like the meat of the missions is fantastic. I won't deny it's a mixed bag. Open-areas that are to be revisited makes sense, but having them all in a single map didn't really mesh well with the overall point.

A handful of places bigger than Camp Omega would've been perfect.

>>345181784
Open World was a mistake. That's one of the reasons why the new Zelda game looks so unappealing to me.

Me3's ending crushed me for like a fortnight
but biggest disapointment?
fuck theres been a few
I didn't have high hopes for the division but i gave it a go. played it for 8 hours and havnt touched it since
Infinite was servicable but in the end pretty shit
they lost me when it was just "Fight people until you kill enough guys for a miniboss to spawn or whatever the fuck" the setpieces were actually genuinely good. The world they built was vibrant and interesting. I wish they actually had some outright racism though, having it all hush hush like they didnt want the virtual black peoples feelings hurt was fucking gay.

shit what else
I just started a trilogy run of Mass effect, finished the first one and the gameplay jump from 1 to 2 is fucking jarring. I dont like it. shotguns are fucking ass at the start which pisses me off why can i only have 15 bullets

Killing floor 2 just doesnt have the greatness of the first one
Its a fine game and is genuinely good for chilling and blowing up some zeds but lightning doesnt strike twice.

Bioshock was probably the biggest. Went from picking sides like killing or saving a postal worker, and optional battles for upgrades; to any choice is cosmetic only, and you never have an option of picking one side over the other. Blimp battles were supposed to be these epic challenges that could give great rewards. Using Elizabeth's power was going to kill/corrupt her if she used it too much. Now she can just do it as often as she likes.

The flow of the story also makes no sense. You arrive on the day of a festival, and everything is in full swing. After the baseball toss, all of columbia turns into Crow Clansmen and killing a literal Ghost. I would have expected that from a city that had already gone to shit.

The entire game's plot felt like it's on rails. Having people bark at you though a PA system instead of actually interacting with them turned me off so much from the game. It eventually just turned into entering an area, battling waves of trash until the music stops, and then getting told where to go next.
