First one I might get hate for, but Escape from Tarkov. Absolutely hated it. I don’t know how to explain it, but the controls didn’t “feel good”. Literally just moving around and aiming felt like the system was fighting me and I uninstalled it after less than 2 hours. I would have refunded it if the game wasn’t bought for me as a gift…
Second one is Global Agenda. The game wouldn’t have been that bad if the devs didn’t seem to hate it. The gameplay loop was fun, I liked the different classes and the customizations. But there was a big pvp “world map” thing that happened on like a 2 week schedule, set times of day for attacking or defending other clans’ territories to earn resources to unlock rewards - it was the primary “end game”. Out of no where, the entire world map was broken, nothing was working right in the middle of the like 2-3 hour time slot where you could do anything with it. Obviously, a TON of support tickets were put in asking for something to be done about it. Devs got salty about all the tickets (I’m sure some of which we not nicely written) and sent a global message to everyone that was online that said “‘Fixing the game’ is not in the cards right now, players should ‘try harder’ to win.” Basically killed the game imo, several big clans just noped out. The devs were already showing signs that they wanted people to stop playing GA and move to their new game (Tribes: Ascend), and that just solidified it.
I’ve got 2 that I didn’t see anyone else mention…
