To me right now is the first Red Dead Redemption. Finally I'm able to play it, I've wait for over a decade. No spoilers, zero youtube gameplay videos, zero questions about the game to my friends. It gotta be me, and the game, it happened, and I think it sucks.

Maybe you thinking in "well, you shouldn't play the second first". I did not. My first Red Dead game was Red Dead Revolver, I was able to play it a few years ago when I could buy a PS2, but I couldn't get a PS3 nor a Xbox 360 to play RDR1. It grinded my gears because we got the prequel in PC. When RDR1 came to PC it was so freaking expensive, yet today, I think it is expensive. I was able to buy the game some weeks ago while there was a Steam Sale, and well, I regreat it now.

I don't like its exploration, its missions, its characters, its world, its secondary missions. its wanted system, and nothing but less important: has a lot of bugs.

That's my experience in a few words.

What's the game that you wanted to play but it was a total mess?

Hogwarts. And all the horizon games.

I didn't expect anything from Hogwarts Lefacy so I was positively surprised. I enjoyed my run but would not do another.

Horizon Zero Dawn on the other hand never clicked, I have had it for a while, never finished it.

compared to all other harry potter games, hogwarts legacy is a masterpiece

[–] vantablack@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

anyone who played Hogwarts Legacy after the huge outcry about boycotting it for trans solidarity deserves to be disappointed

[–] Bieren@lemmy.today 6 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Is Rowling a piece of trash, yes. Does the game include a trans character, also yes. Were people still pissed off at the characters name, also yes.

it was literally SIRona RYAN

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

ryan is a gender neutral name though

[–] vantablack@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 16 hours ago

this is like naming your only asian character something dangerously close to "ching chong" or having your one black character be named some shit like "Kingsley Shacklebolt" or...

actually, i don't know why anybody expected anything better from this franchise lmfao
