It’s either the fault of the players or the developers.
50/50
The new alone in the dark is pretty decent it’s not amazing but still the best version they have released
It's the only one they put out the others where done by Atari this one was by thq and the first two games where good
Saints Row reboot was sadly such a disaster that it probably killed the series.
Not only did Saints Row (2022) killed the series, but also the developer behind the series, Volition, due to the reception of the 2022 reboot.
That Reboot was just.... sad ! It felt like and old Has been thinking they're still "It"
I’ve to this day never played one
@@Historicutuberjust play the first 3, maybe the fourth one if you’re curious. Don’t bother with both Agents of Mayhem and the reboot.
@@Historicutuber well don't play the reboot, just the other games.
Overwatch 2 hurts the most, was really looking forward to that alleged story mode :/
But hey it’s in a good state and but fortunately they try to copy the fortnite formula
@@kevingame3198do you mean the industry-wide use of the battlepass and cosmetic systems?
@@JakeSummers yes that’s the one
Why deny us story mode?
@@cameronmcewen9666 because there's more long term engagement and revenue to be made by focusing on PVP instead
I'd say MultiVersus is worthy of being on this list, because the beta was nice to play, but when the "finished" version came recently, it's even less playable and more grindy than before. And as a big fan of Warner Bros. properties and seeing them come together in a Smash-esque fighting game, I am very disappointed with the results.
What about the results disappoints you?
@@cameronmcewen9666 Uh, the fact that the game keeps crashing and/or disconnecting, the sheer increase in microtransactions, the long progression system, the changes in how perks work, and not exactly a fan of the new UI.
Medal of Honor 2010 was severly underrated.
How did Marvel's Avengers get a second chance? That one seems glaringly out of place on this list.
Medal of Honor: Warfighter came out in 2012 after Medal of Honor (2010) and Warfighter was really good.
In my opinion it's Saints Row 2022. Even tho the lastest Saints Row game was Gat Out of Hell from 2015. In 2021 many were hyped by seeing a graffiti post but unfortunately Saints Row 2022 came out as unfinished with some cringe jokes
You can’t force gamers to buy games especially with game pass these days
I think star fox zero deserves a spot here. After the highly polarizing star fox command the series went dormant for a decade, and then it had the golden opportunity of starting over again with a reboot that would have been a clean slate but it fell completely on it's face, and it's been almost a decade since and the series is dormant once more, and it's always incredibly difficult for a series to recover after a failed attempt at a reboot.
You forgot how Blizzard "said" Overwatch 2 would have a story mode, campaign, w/e
Did they deliver? Nope, all we got was the SAME thing with some new characters...
They ban accounts and deny us story modes.
From what I heard. Phil Spencer mentioned the idea of having one single Guitar Hero game and just adding content packs to it kind like Beat saber so all you need to do is buy the controller. Honestly, I think that would work very well for the series. Just have one game with music added to it every now and then.
Tony Hawk 5 which failed miserably.
And then there was the marvellous THPS 1+2 that almost attempted to save the franchise only for Activision to mess it up by merging Vicarious Visions to Blizzard Entertainment as Blizzard Albany and then focus more on Call of Duty!
A really nice stupid move you made there Activision!
Avengers didn’t just disappoint me, the devs thought making it a live service was a good idea. Then the mcu skins coming in late turned a lot of players from the game.
Where Overwatch 2 dropped the ball, Among Us learned from it. They were working on a sequel, but upon seeing the attention Among Us was getting, they canned the sequel and focused on keeping up a stream of maps and game modes. A rare lesson in devs learning from others' mistakes.
completely shutting down the entirety of overwatch 1 to force players over to the sequel was such a dick move, especially considering that game also a had a physical release so people are now left with what is effectively a fancy coaster. It’s not as bad as ubisoft pulling the crew from people’s accounts but still pretty awful
Medal of Honor should've gone back to its roots. Imagine how all these games are modern or sci-fi. Then here comes Medal of Honor in 2012 to remind people that older wars can be exciting as well. It had been years since we had a great FPS that didn't take place in the 21st century and beyond. But they didn't. Instead it was up to Battlefield 1 to do that (and look how popular that ended up being).
Alone in the Dark 2024 is not that bad of a game.
Sure, it has some technical issues, but it’s way way WAY BETTER than what we got in 2008 and 2015.
For Saints Row, I think most people wanted something along the lines of a Saints Row 2 1/2. Something that wasn't as OTT as "The Third", and a little less serious than SR2.
I feel a little bad that Battleborn never found much success. I've played the game and I honestly thought it was a lot of fun and had a bunch of gameplay mechanics that made the game unique. Sadly it could never get out of the Overwatch's shadow. Ironic given the current state of Overwatch.
I think a well known phrase about making a mess in a sleeping location best describes what happened with that game that killed Saints Row
Turok absolutely failed at reviving itself. The original trilogy was good for the time, then Evolution came out and was completely broken. Then the revive happened, but it wasn't anywhere near what Turok originally was.
I don't get the hate between Overwatch and Overwatch 2. The lack of the Story Mode was disappointing, with [admittedly limited] the time I spent between the two it seems like the exact same game but with a handful of changes. It was even free. I just don't get why it's a big deal that they shut down the original when they were making what amounts to an expansion in OW2. They'd never support that original had they left it open.
As soon as I heard that Overwatch 2 was going to be free to play, I knew it was over
I still play Star Craft 2 every day.
That’s a story worth playing over and over. Much like the early _Warcraft_ and _Diablo_ games.
Shenmue 3 bothers me the most. Not that I'd been waiting for the game necessarily but to actually get a new game and a chance close the story only for them to choose not to was disappointing. The absolutely awful and dated gameplay only made it worse, as if they actually thought that what they were delivering would sell enough to justify any additional games.
My biggest problem with GH Live was its offline mode was pretty much filled with nothing but Pop tracks. Sure that's fine I don't mind Pop, but as an actual guitarist, the problem is Pop is too boring to play
Honestly Disney infinity hurts me personally because the game as lots and lots of potential but of course they shut down sometime…
Idk if Overwatch 2 failed, but it definitely didn't reach expectations
We know that _Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League_ won’t get a second chance, and it would fail if it did.
At least Lego Dimensions knew when to stop because WB understood that if they kept going, they’d suffer like Disney Infinity, I’ll definitely give Lego Dimensions credit for knowing when to stop before it was too late.
As for Shenmue it wasn’t meant to be a trilogy, it was supposed to last for long as five or six games, because it was to have 16 chapters.
At least I still have my _Disney Infinity_ toys, and I plan on buying the ones I never bought.
RIP overwatch, we had great times together
Some of this did not even go through a revival..nust a downward spiral to death
3:57 - 5:19 The 4th time they tried to REDEEM THE FRANCHISE 😱😱
Top 10 Luigi’s mansion boss fights
Yeah I stopped playing overwatch 2 mainly because it felt like my was going to overheat from just being on it for only a few minutes. Really hope Blizzard decides to bring the original as Overwatch classic like they did with WoW.
I like Lego dimensions you could team up Mr t with a Ghostbusters
if you want my honest opinion, BLIZZARD should've given Overwatch a damn story mode, rather than an online battle sim and stuff, from the beginning when they released the first one in 2016, that included it's sequel, but nooooo, they chose to keep the same thing like from the first one, and wasted their chance by constantly releasing character trailers, with awesome cinematics, instead, guess they screwed that one from the get go, I mean, what was the point in releasing a game, with no story modes for those two?
Evolve was an amazing game shame it never got a large enough pkayer base
10:54 that being said it also made us get rid of any additional skins. We’ve already collected for characters.
Not true. I have every single skin I got in OW1 in OW2
7. It's still not as bad as the last two games that came before this one.
5. Something similar also happened with Forspoken's writing. Which sounds and feels like it was written by out-of-touch millennials trying way too hard to be cool.
3. But I love the Guitar Hero series! It's doing what other mainstream media isn't doing. Opening rock and metal to new audiences.
2. The item shop was also bugged in such a way that it bought items for you without your permission. And at the end of the day, this was just an inferior update that players didn't want that was forced upon them. When the only way you can get players to play your game is at gunpoint, IT'S NOT GONNA BE WELL LIKED! AT AT!
I was crushed with the lies overwatch 2 promised
The new medal of honors were fantastic the public just didn't like the original name of the opfor
the new saints row woulda been recieved a lot better if it wasnt tied to that ip and was its own thing IMO
I won't say that Disney Infinity was a success but it wasn't a failure either it had a strong fan base and engaging stories with a sandbox area to create anything they wanted it was just getting crowded in the Toys to Life genre so Disney pulled the plug on it to save themselves the embarrassment of doing it later and it's not as if the figures were cheap to buy or make but the others on this list totally agree with what your saying
I was beginning to like those games, especially having a collection of those toys.
I still played some of these games
Yeah, you would play some of these games, bobert
Roadhouse
Where is the second chance for Avengers?
I loved Evolve 2 and I would play it if they would open the servers again. I hope that someday there is a Evolve 3.
Alone in the Dark isn't that bad. I think it wasn't marketed enough.
Sounds like you did this before in another video game failure, i can’t remember.
Saying Overwatch 2 is dead is disingenuous. The game is doing just fine and new players are still joining. Game is still fun
I’ve always thought big PVE was a bad decision, so I’m okay with it never becoming a thing. Maybe that could be a separate game in the future (or animated series)
Maybe BattleBorn should have gotten a second chance when Overwatch 2 was released? But I guess it would not have made much difference by that time
Even though Disney Infinity failed after it was discontinued we still carry the figures in our shelfs or who knows what?
We’re disappointed, and there were so many other characters they could’ve included.
do wish for disney infinity instead of making new versions should've had stuck to one version updating it(going off amiibos route of just having it be playable without them but get unlockables if used.) & tbh should've focused on older/other parts of disney rather than their recently bought licenses with the huge library of the past series they have that would've been better than shoving recent series especially not seeing if they're good 1st.
shenmue 3 really should've been the end of the story as nothing gets accomplished/had the problem of not improving the archaic flaws of the originals.(if it ever does return love it to either be integrated into yakuza which pretty much took it's concept improving it to the modern day or even go into virtua fighter with how alongside vf not having too much of a story shenmue originally was going to star the characters from it.)
Yeah I was embarrassed to be a saints row fan when the "reboot" was close to being released that entire promotion and PR was not helping at all. I'm glad I still haven't bought the game
It really didn't help Shenmue that Yakuza is everything Shenmue does only better.
Evolve was really not a bad game.
Leave shenmue alone!!! They had $5 compared to 100 million dollar games today. I liked it.
Good list 🎮
MOH was good. It could have survived well
I loved the medal of honor 2010 on the ps3
5:25 there's a 3rd one.
My problem with some games you have to get the playstation plus buy thing, amd that's stupid.
People who say Overwatch 2 are people who play Overwatch but bandwagon hate it for internet clout
If it weren't so easy to die, Avengers would be a lot better
I really like some of these games and had fun playing them too. I really like the new alone in the dark game and I probably like the saint row reboot game,love the saints row game. I like new saints row game more then saints row 4.
Borderlands 3 in all likelihood killed the borderlands franchise. Diablo 4 might not kill Blizzard, but it certainly brutalized the series and it's longtime fans.
RIP Dead Space
10:13 - 11:26 😣 Ouch
When I saw saints row. I was like nope
If Activision weren't so greedy, they'd just reset and re-release Overwatch without season passes and all the FTP crap no one likes over the age of 16. They chased the Fortnite crowd and got made to look foolish. But...FTP makes money, so no matter how much gamers hate it, kids love free shit.
Maybe game developers should leave "Alone in the Dark" alone.....in the dark
Millions of people still play Overwatch 2, so did it really “fail”?
who still play it
@@jimbo9208 According to Steamcharts, there's over 25,000 playing the Steam version right now.
@@jimbo9208me and a ton of others. Is it as popular as the first game no, but this whole "game is dead" narrative is funny. People need to move on. I agree that some changes suck yes, but it's not going back to how it was. Either accept it or move on to another game.
@@tristanscatliffe9840 think of video games like movies
@@jimbo9208 how so? I'm curious because I don't see what you're getting at.
I honestly enjoyed Saints Row reboot but understand why other people hated it
Marvel avengers did get better you people just don’t know what you are talking about the story was a part of the game people enjoyed for starters and it’s expansions the online stuff was not great at launch but they fixed it same with bugs and issues the only reason it was shut down is because square enix did not want to keep funding it if they did tho the game would have gotten better and better
Why have 3 separate comments instead of just a long one?
@@Daniel-nn8mr As well as all three being some of the worst takes. Aaron has godawful taste in games.
Mirror's Edge. Great games. Nobody bought them.
I don't like seeing *Overwatch 2* Game being added into this Video List. It doesn't deserve the hate.
For the 1 billionth time, it was well known that Shenmue 3 was not going to be a conclusion to the story. Yu Suzuki said that way back when the Kickstarter happened and repeated it many times. I'm not even a Shenmue fan and I know that.
waste of time and assets moving the story just an inch ahead, you'll never fight lan di and if another gets made it would be a miracle.
Splatter house
I was playing Overwatch 2; up until they announced they would no longer be working the campaign mode. After that; what story missions they did have; they forced you to buy their battle pass, so you could spend $5 more dollars for those missions. No thanks, I know a bad deal when I see one
