Games you want to see GO AWAY

[Meg]

What are some games that you’re sick of and would rather not get any more sequels? Obviously people are free to enjoy any game they want, so don’t worry if someone calls out a series you love. This thread is all in good fun and shouldn’t be taken too seriously.

For me it’s annual sports games. It makes me sad to say it because I love MLB The Show, but the increasing obsession developers have with making these games live services is gross. Enough with the stupid card packs my goodness!

It won’t happen, but I wish these games would only come out once every few years, with the current game getting yearly roster updates until the new one comes out.

That’s not a very hot take so I’ll also say Soulslike games. I love exploration heavy games but these games are not for me. The difficulty is not fun because all it does is get in the way of what I really care about. We need less of this and more chill exploration games.

What about you? The spicier the opinion the better!

Fornite in general. The game and epic are way overboard and screwing over kids and people with addictive tendencies. Plus, the game is just not that good. COD can go to hell as usual. Activision even more so. Dynasty Warriors or its clones and various spinoffs don't have much going for them these days. Though KT pretty much did that to themselves.

Turn based gameplay- just not for me.

Special editions/final mixes- most of that content should be served in a DLC or just put out another sequel.

Rachet and Clank- the bitter jak and daxter fan boy in me rises...lol.

Kingdom Hearts- It probably should've ended back in KH2. Just let Nomura do his versus 13 fix-it project already.

Games with card based combat, the amount of times i bought a game i thought looked cool to only find out it was card based and turn based

Ruining it for me

Roblox
Fortnite
Call of Duty Anything
All football games
Anything with compulsory DLC to either progress or comprehend the storyline of sequels (yes I'm still salty over ME3. And I will never not be)
Idle clicker games
Stupid mobile platform farming sims which are just awful, awful things
Anything without a casual mode for people to just enjoy gaming rather than spend £60 on something that exists just to cause rage. It makes gamers elitist and unpleasant at best whenever someone new to a game or franchise struggles with the standard+ difficulties and not everyone relishes "a challenge".

I can't think of any specific game, but there is definitely a practice I want gone, and gone now. DRM and Games as a service. I hate seeing a really cool game get shut down because the developers don't want to support it anymore, regardless of whether people are still playing or not, and don't provide an option to play it offline. Some games like Star Wars Galaxies and EVE Online have been reversed engineered and have emulated servers, but many many other games will inevitably disappear forever without ever being seen by future players. I really would prefer to save everything, even if it's nothing I particularly play or care about.

Nother thing I would like to see go: content behind paywalls. Destiny 2 has started doing this and it's not ok. My first Dawning event whereby I couldn't complete my collections because you have to pay real money to upgrade your event card...it's bad enough Bungie sunsetted a tonne of good stuff, they now want to try and force players into paying extra cash for completion.

Plenty of quality games out there offer updated content for free...if it's not full DLC, people shouldn't have to fork out for it. Especially not temporary events .

While we are at it, forced walking sections in games period. Most aren't even fun the first time through, it only get more annoying on subsequent playthroughs. A lot of Sony games suffer from this. Even Bayonetta 3 has more walking sections than the last game. They may only last 5-12 seconds, but that makes it all the more annoying. Why not just make a cut scene, if you're going to have that much dialogue?
