3/1/2024 0 Comments System shock 2 overrated![]() ![]() I'm an old school fan of the genre so I love to see it. But I would also argue it saved survival horror in general. The Evil Within, Dead Space 3, Silent Hill project cancelled, etc. ![]() It came at a time when survival horror was dead or dying. It was so successful that it showed the industry that people still want good single player AAA games. Outriders, Anthem, Avengers, Fallout 76, etc. It came at a time when everyone was trying to sell live service games. Honorable mention - Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order. If this game was never made or never sold well I don't believe a lot of subsequent games would exist. Most people expected to see similar games just on PC. IIRC it was the first of its kind as a major RPG that was a console exclusive. And when they fuck with one thing it can effect everything else. But a Bethesda open world RPG has so much more that needs to work. Whenever someone complains about bugs I'm like, yeah, of course God of War Ragnarock performs perfectly in 60FPS. Big open world with shit loads of interactable items that all have to work in the game's physics. Most important game - Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind. 343 should have been trashed after 5 and Infinite. And even though I liked the gameplay and aesthetic I never thought it had a good or well told story. HBO show sucks but they'll probably remake that, too.Ĭombat Evolved was a great game and it was important for FPS's and Xbox. Then they really fucked it up with Part 2. A really good narrative can make up for not so great gameplay or game mechanics and I don't see that here. And honestly I never thought the story was that great. My pick for most overrated - The Last of Us. And of course it can be important to you for personal reasons. Most important should be something that popularized or introduced something to the game industry. IMO most overrated should be something that gained high critical and commercial success but falls short in your opinion. ![]() Just a friendly discussion about your picks for these categories. ![]()
