2 picks for me: Stardew Valley, most boring shit ever, I don’t see the appeal, seriously how the hell did that thing sold 20 million copies?

And Witcher 3, I own that game since 2019 and I regret buying it, funny thing is that I’ve finished Dragon Age 1 and 2, which are kinda same genre but I actually enjoyed those games. I guess the old BioWare sauce carried those games unlike Witcher where there’s nothing to enjoy in its massive pointless world.

    Zelda: Ocarina of Time – I didn’t play it until more than a decade after it came out and had zero nostalgia for it. The camera and controls were super clunky and I just couldn’t enjoy it. That’s actually true of a lot of N64 stuff for me.

      Nostalgia is a helluva drug for that one. Shit was unreal when it came out

          I think it depends on the background. If coming from the computer gaming world, it wasn’t necessarily all that impressive. If someone were particularly into Zelda or was console-only, I think it was probably seen as much better.
