There probably aren't any. If I thought a game sucked I would quit playing it. I play for fun. If it sucks, the experience isn't fun for me. I will move on and find something that I enjoy.

Yeah. I will power through a game on occasion, especially if the badness of it is still entertaining.

I draw the line at "boring". There's no reason to play a bad game that is also boring.

edit: i forgot to name a game. Skyward Sword is a bad game and I beat it 8 years after I bought it.

Dragon Age Inquisition

I ended up abandoning my most recent playthrough of the trilogy in the middle of Inquisition, because Veilguard came out and I heard that you cant import save data from the Dragon Age Keep. Id still like to try Veilguard at some point, but its a low priority for me right now as I try to work through some of my backlog.

Dragon Age Inquisition

I came here to write this. I played through because I liked the games that came before so much. But I thought Inquisition was boring as hell.

As a kid and into young adulthood, I would finish anything I paid money for. Books, games, movies. If I paid for it, I was sticking it out to the bitter end.

As I got older I realized time is more precious than money, and I am now really good at putting things down I dont like. But I got stuck this one time because I wanted to like Inquisition so badly

Horizon zero dawn. Good graphics, mind numbingly boring gameplay. Super basic stuff.

When I got to the end and it was a turret section, I realized I had been bamboozled by the ps4 can do no wrong hype train.

Dragon Age Inquisition

I felt it had the same problem as Mass Effect Andromeda, the open world obsession.

Whilst that can work with games that just dump the player in a world where the main story is almost optional; in both these cases it just added a lot of boring padding.

It plays smooth as fuck, they just dropped the ball on the actual world design.

Also the squaddies aren't really up to par, there are like two that would be "middle of the pack" in any other lineup but in this one they basically win by default.

While Origins remains my favorite by far, I thought it was a vast improvement over Dragon Age 2.

I don't muscle through games I don't like, and I've been pretty lucky where I rarely get a game and find myself hating it. Probably the closest was Tales of Vesperia, I actually got quite far (the party just created Gnome) when I threw in the towel.

I played it after Borderlands 2 which did not help as it felt like a regression in every way because of that.
It was just... dull?
Even the DLC was uninspired.

Final Fantasy VIII.

I gaslit myself into thinking it was some misunderstood gem. Surely all these people telling me "actually FFVIII is good and everyone just misunderstands Squall!" Couldn't be wrong.

But no it just fucking sucks lol. It gets good during the parade assassination and you think you've finally turned a corner and found the overlooked masterpiece its fans are selling you on. But then it goes right back to being stupid.

Except Selphie. I will die for Selphie. (Incidentally, Selphie's infilitration mission was the only other part of the game I really enjoyed)

Just did a little digging to see if I was remembering that correctly, and, yep, no Keep.

Heres a link, with a screenshot of the relevant part of the article:

https://www.ign.com/articles/how-dragon-age-the-veilguard-grapples-with-the-series-wildly-expansive-lore-and-your-choices-in-it

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/b/b30961c5.jpg

That seems to be all that you do to shape the world state of your game in Veilguard, just those three things. And although the Solas stuff is obviously importantI would kind of imagine that most players care a bit more about, say, their Hawke than their Inquisitor.

I beat that when it was brand new and it was fun. Split screen coop.

My answer to TC could be borderlands 2. Online co-op and it was a slog. Muting the voice acting helped. But my eyes were basically glazed over the whole time. Did beat it, though.

Ultima IX: Ascension

I'd played every other mainline Ultima game, I wasn't going to not finish the series. But fucking hell 9 was an absolute pile of shit.
I've tried to play through the series. I started at 3 and worked my way through 7. I dabbled in 8 but dropped it and 9 is well...different.

I bought the whole series on GOG, plus the free underworld games. I started at 1. Yeah is archaic, but familier. I just cant get past the first town. Am I supposed to grind? It just seems I go talk to lord britsh give him gold and he g8ves me hp. Weird.

Anyway the series is my "origin" story. I'll explain. I had a friend growing up and he had ultima 3 on a apple2e. I think I went to his house and he was playing it. I asked if I could play he goes sure. Pops in a new floopy and that was the first rpg I ever played. Second he was big into DND and at school at recess we had a gaming group in the mid 80's lol. Lastly he had backyard farm. Some sheep, some goats a few chickens. Who knew in 15y I would own one. We were good friends till I moved away. Bobby if read this thank you.

Once I start a game I pretty much have to finish it 99% of the time.

The recent Kong and TMNT games from GameMill were both really poor but once I started them I had to finish. Thankfully both were short.
