Some people play a game and they like it, but sometimes a game can go too far with their content or something goes wrong with the game itself. It can make a player stop playing for good sometimes and that has happened to me too much. Hello and welcome to this blog countdown.
8. Mortal Kombat X
Great game by heart and is a masterpiece to see where this game went to. Before, it was boobs, boobs, boobs! Now this game has followed a more realistic call where the women are in fair size (And still sexy) and the men don't look like a bodybuilder on steroids. I am a long time Kombat Player, so seeing that happen to this game was very heartwarming.
Once I finished the story mode (It was cheesy by the way) and began to play the Multiplayer. My first impressions were not fun. I was a level one fighter that barely knew most of the combos and was about to fight a level 200 player that possibly is going to know every inch of this game. Let's just say the fight was very short and mostly in the air. I really don't get the match making in this game, it's just so unfair where the beginners have to go up against the best of the best. I don't know what the problem is, either it's because all the beginners are not playing or that the game doesn't know what a fair fight is. I stopped playing once the game wouldn't stop putting me up against people more skilled than me with over a thousand wins.
7. Mine Craft
When you get Lego bricks and play with them as a kid, you love them for a minute then put them back in the toy box later because you lost all faith in your creativity. Mine Craft can feel the same way when you play for an extended period of time. "Well, you just haven't made everything yet, StarterPack!" Well, I did. I made a roller coaster, a mansion fit with working plumbing, a poney ranch, a fountain and even a working mine with rails. What else is there to do? Possibly survive each night without sleeping? Did it. Create an arena with friends and bet whether or not a Creeper would win against a Zombie? Did that and I lost. Can you think of anything else?
And before you even ask, I did play this with friends and we both got bored with it along with the game's new PvP modes. I really don't know why they put that in the game when it's just a creation sim. I guess it was to popularize the Hunger Game Servers on the PC. Anyways, the game is boring after playing it for too long.
6. Super Smash Bros.
You know the famous friendship destroyer! No, not Mario Kart. Smash Bros... The game that was the best fighting game on the 64... No one? Okay, well this game is a great little fighting game. I think it can tower over many, but the one thing that sucks is the community. "What!? I am apart of this community you hate so much and I find that very offensive!" Yeah, if you're a cool player, I won't hate. Anyways, they're just people that would call you trash for not wanting items or playing on your favorite stage, Smashville. Don't judge.
In my school, in the Teen Lounge, is nothing but that. Everyone either likes to camp, use awful items and spam anything they can get easy access to. I just hate it. They don't even try and call you trash after they spam the same moves and runaway from you when you try to kill them! I just want to scream sometimes when they do things like that.
5. Undertale
I actually like this game for a while. It was a rare little RPG. I don't even know if I would call it an RPG it's so different. I thought of myself as a fan even though I was half way through the game and joined the fan club on Google +. Go ahead, laugh! Anyways, the fan club was strange. It was people liking the game too much and almost every community post was... Porn! Why do people like Toriel like that!? Why!? She doesn't even look like that!
After rubbing bleach in my eyes, I didn't see the game as a friendly little RPG, but something that those weirdos saw! I was grossed out everytime I played it, just those images from the fan club popping up in my head! I quickly uninstalled as I knew I would not be playing that game anymore. My innocence was destroyed that night.
4. Fallout New Vegas
When you play this game, you get a new vibe of the fallout universe where it's like a Spaghetti Western in the future where you have to take revenge for the man who shot you in the head. Besides that, the game had a good variety of choices where you had to really think on. I was choosing the Mr. House route of the story as I had the Platinum Chip. As soon as I was able to open a secret door in the Caesar's Legion base, using the chip, it wouldn't open. I thought it was a loading thing and actually tried to debug it with some console commands. It didn't work. I tried noclip and I was out of the map instead of where I wanted to be.
I reloaded the moment where I entered the room and I saw my companion trying to open it himself. Why? I have the chip! Why are you trying to open it? I believe him doing that broke the game and every attempt of me fixing it would result in the same glitch. "Why didn't you try to load you last save before you started this mission, StarterPack?" My last save before the mission was way back when I was trying to get the chip. My Auto Saves were all from when I entered the area, so the work to do this all over again was going to be another 7 hours to waste on this game and I didn't want to do that. Instead I went to Mr. House and killed him and there I dropped the game completely.
3. Mass Effect Andromeda
I was hesitant to play this game after hearing so much wrong with it, but seeing the video with every single mistake this what makes this game, I was excited to see what the game was about. I rented it to be safe and began the game. It took me to the Character Creation and I wanted to see what the Character Presets were. What I saw was the ugliest bunch of presets in the world. Each one being worse than the last and seeing the female presets just made me cry. They didn't look cute or even made you want them to, it was just this gross looking butter face with fat lips.
I settled with the default character and played the first 10 minutes of the game. From what I saw was a bad thing. Something that even Jesus can't even save! The cutscenes looked like something that the people at Screw Attack would make for their Death Battles! The lip sinc, even after the update, looks awful and too robotic. The dialogue was just a massacre on my ears and nothing about the characters were fun! Why do I want to romanticize with this character? Even the gameplay is lacking along with the Narrative. I took back that rent as soon as I could.
2. Oblivion
I played this game as a kid and, to be honest, was my first Action/RPG. It was a fun game as your progress in the game's story, but when you progress in level and focus on bad stats in the beginning, it's pretty hard to play. Either the enemies are hard to fight without using spells and a bow or you just can't progress in a mission because you can't do an Expert Lock.
I really hated that as a kid and the money in the game was so scarce. I can see why players always do that one glitch where you get a thousand gold everytime you talk to this one dude. The one thing I hated was how the game didn't supply the enemies corpses with enough arrows, making the game even harder with a scarce amount of arrows. I was just a kid when I played this, but I stopped once I couldn't progress farther in the Brotherhood quests. Watched my dad beat the game though.
1. Skyrim
I do not hate this game. I would actually put this game on my number one spot on best RPG's out there, so don't think I hate this game. Anyways, when I played the game for a second time after a bad glitch from the last time, I was going on a mission in Solstheim to go in a temple to find some relic. I complete it and just finally turned level 60. My last one was only a level 50, so this would be my first time I ever reached 60. I was rewarded and was about to leave. I head to the door and enter a loading screen... I wait... And I wait... And I wait... And I wait... The game took so long to load the game and everytime it did, the game would freeze.
In a desperate attempt to play the game as a level 60 for once, I left the game to load overnight. Even that wouldn't work! My last game made me stop because everytime I entered my inventory, it would freeze for a few seconds and seeing that this one was completely broken, I stopped playing the game. When I got the Special Edition, I just couldn't play since I did everything in the game. Everything that felt important, everything that was awesome, even the Brotherhood was sucked dry. I stopped playing the game completely... Unless you count the times I test the game's limits with the new mod feature.
Well, I hope you enjoyed this countdown. It's been a while since I've done one of these, so it was great fun doing this again. Anyways, what made you stop playing a fun game? Can you relate to this list at all. Please tell, I don't want to be alone. And 'til next time...
