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.
Outer Wilds. I just don’t understand why everyone loves it so much. I thought it was boring.
There’s moments in the game that really hit. Just a amazing wow experience. Its been a few years and your comment still makes me think about it.
And if they didn’t, totally understandable.
How far did you get?
I played a few hours. I thought the idea and the art design was cool. It just didn’t wow me. I do plan on giving it another try though.
Yeah the beginning can be slow and a bit directionless, but it’s definitely worth sticking with it imo.
I’ll give it another try. It took 2 tries for me to like Death Stranding and I ended up loving it. So sometimes it just takes multiple times.

It’s not a roguelike. You do start over repeatedly (with a ship’s log to show what knowlege you have), but it doesn’t have any roguelike elements.

That’s fair. I do agree that the time limit on exploring an area is kinda annoying.

Same. I think it’s okay. I’ll give it another try eventually but nothing has really hooked me yet.
