StaceyPowers Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Is there a game you have played which fell flat (either with you or with critics and gamers overall) which had the potential to be amazing? What would need to be changed with that game to make it great? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleopatra92 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Dragon Age Inquisition. These are just my opinions, as someone who loved Dragon Age Origins and liked Dragon Age II. In short, they seemed to try to make it play too much like Assassin's Creed or something. The open world was just pointless in a Dragon Age game, as the only things it really contained were super boring busy quests... Why am I, the head of the Inquisition, going around handing out blankets or whatever all the time? You're telling me my organization is so poorly run that I have to personally go do all of this? What are all of my advisers even doing? And you can't skip a lot of the quests either because you need the power that you get from them to use at your war table thing. The war table thing was also stupid. But less stupid than the open world full of crap. I didn't like reading about doing something cool instead of acting going to do it. Apparently I was too busy getting food and blankets. I didn't like the combat either. It was too far removed from the combat of the previous games. I can understand wanting to get something more console friendly than Origins' combat was, but I thought Dragon Age II was already a pretty good compromise there. I loved the characters, lore, and story of the game, however. But I played it once and skipped a lot of stuff. I mostly went back to YouTube and other sites to fill in all of the gaps lore and story-wise because I just didn't like playing it that much. That said, I'm still hopeful for the next Dragon Age game that was recently announced, but I won't hold my breath this time lol. kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingpotato Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Mad Max 3, it was good but I couldn't relate to Max like in the previous games, everything felt like he was just there by chance , like a side quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alyxx Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Black Ops 4 for sure. If they hadn't dropped the future tech so much and included a campaign I would've enjoyed it more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 The division is also another game I thought could have been great but what we got was an open-world shooter with no end-game content, lots of bugs, repetitive gameplay and the overall experience just felt rushed.

skyfire Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I can write an article over this. But let's keep things short. Lot of 90s games are under rated. Take those games with story. Many of them were supposed to have good story and the weapons and creatures. But it did not worked out for those games. And many games got reboot and improved in the due process. I think on that note I'd say that sometimes game developers and story writers experiment to improve our gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Metro Exodus could have been a great game but the shady last-minute deal with Epic Games among other things is what made it flop and I'm saying this way ahead of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
