    [Funko Fusion] game feels like an off-brand LEGO game in all the worst ways

    I have a bias here because I’ve never understood the appeal of model collecting in general, and of dead-eyed, amorphous Funko Pops in particular, but I am shocked that a cash grab on the back of emotionless, artistically-bereft figurines wasn’t a smash hit.

    Well, not that shocked.

    Tl;dr

    Broken roads.
    Deathbound.
    Open roads.
    Star wars outlaws.
    South Park: snow day.
    Funko fusion.
    Left horizon adventures.
    Alone in the dark.
    Skull and bones.
    Concord.

      It’s a strange list, after all you gotta have expectations to be disappointed. Half the titles on here already flopped with their announcement.

        Look at it this way, Disappointing =/= Bad. One of my biggest disappointments is Metal Gear Solid V and I love that game, but I know that my expectations were not met.

          Because it was unfinished? I’ve literally dreamt about the final chapter as dlc

            Pretty much. Halfway through the game missions had no story to them, until they randomly did.

        I haven’t played Outlaws yet but putting anything on the same list as Concord seems a little harsh

          Outlaws was painfully average Ubisoft experience with star wars skin

          Just like how mists of Pandora was painfully average Ubisoft experience with avatar skin.

          It’s not bad. Just forgettable. Which can be sometimes worse

        I’ll play it when it’s $10 and when there’s mods to fix the absolutely fugly character models

    I can’t believe they would have the audacity to put the world’s only AAAA game on a bad game list.

      Concord: The game nobody played but everyone remembers.

      Can’t wait for the re-release trying to scrounge up a few bucks.

        I think it’s properly dead as the studio has been disbanded.

    I’m more curious if there were any AAA games that didn’t disappoint this year.

      I wouldn’t call Factorio AAA, but with their ever increasing price tag, Space Age certainly feels like one of the best made “AAA” Games of the year.

      I thought dragons dogma 2 was pretty fun. It had its issues but I don’t regret buying it

    I was quite satisfied with Alone in the Dark. It could have used some polish, but it was delivering more Resident Evil 1 style gameplay in a way that even the Resident Evil series refuses to do.
