Nah man, been playing MP's since Doom 1... Yes, and yet somehow you think that MEAMP is better executed and has more fluidity than ME3MP... You aren't helping yourself here!

Oh, the tenor of this thread has gone facetious... normally I'm up for that!
But I was looking for a place to vent about how much Shadow of the Tomb Raider sucked. I'll have to keep looking...

Oh, the tenor of this thread has gone facetious... normally I'm up for that! But I was looking for a place to vent about how much Shadow of the Tomb Raider sucked. I'll have to keep looking... Vent away. What parts sucked the most? I suppose the game as a whole doesn't suck, it's just disappointing.* But at the time I posted that, I had just been through Cenote for the fourth time on the highest difficulty. You aren't allowed to save, and there are several story missions that take over an hour to finish. Cenote hits you with 30 minutes of resource-exhaustive combat, followed by an extended quicktime sequence during which the tiniest mistake puts you back to the beginning of the mission, followed by another extended sequence, followed by an underwater sequence full of piranha, all of which sends you back to the beginning if you're off by a millimeter. My fourth try, I got eaten by piranha at the 1 hour and 15 minute mark of the attempt. That was when I uninstalled the game and came in here to bitch about it! *Disappointing elements include: combat is restricted to story missions, and the enemies do not respawn, which changes the dynamic of the game to become literal "fetch quests" where you run point-to-point getting things and bringing them to people. The map is very pretty, but also very boring (partly because all the action is restricted to story missions.) And the dialogue gets annoying. Lara just won't shut up about how she "can't pick that up" even when she actually can.

The guy who thinks Dragon Age Origins has the worst gameplay hasn't likely played NWN 1 & 2 KOTOR I & II, Jade Empire and similar games (and nothing wrong with them). He's just a 2010s action-RPG noob.

These are two very different categories for me. Most disappointing would probably be MEA, DAI, and Fallout 4, even though I'd still rate the first two a solid 7 out of 10. I just thought Bioware should have known better than to throw hours and hours of repetitive combat at us in the name of "more and bigger," while FO4 has a promising setup and then boils it down to "help a faction blow up some other factions."
Of the games I've actually finished or spent a fair amount of time on, the worst might be a stealth shooter called IGI2. It had a lot of cool-looking maps, but the gameplay itself wasn't that enjoyable for me, and it would sometimes stack the deck with its lack of weapon choice.

Mass Effect 3: It felt and played like a Gears of War ripoff in space. Had probably the worst writing I've ever seen from Bioware and quite literally ruined the Milky Way portion of the ME universe.
Dragon Age 2: Hacky writing, repeated level designs, terrible DLC, and small scope to the point where it felt like it could've just been a codex/lore entry instead of a game. Wasted resources
Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2017): Somehow managed to be even worse than the original despite the promise of more content. Boring, repetitive gameplay and maps. Didn't even have a map cycle option when I played it (don't know if this has changed). Microtransactions galore.
Star Wars: The Old Republic: Wasn't a bad or good game; it was just a waste of potential. Could've been a KOTOR 3 but instead we got an MMO. I only found a couple of the class storylines to be of any interest.
Mass Effect 2: The main plot was completely pointless and the only good content it had to offer was either handled in a very touch and go manner or included as DLC.
Agreed 110% about all the bolded. I won't even touch on Battlefront, my rage cannot be stoked tonight. As for Star Wars:TOR, you know you've fucked up when the trailers are absolutely light-years ahead of not only the game they are supposed to be advertising, but also the sequel trilogy. I vehemently disagree about Mass Effect 2, however. No, it isn't a perfect game, but I would go so far as to say it's probably Classic Bioware's masterpiece. Yes, it had a dumb-ass baby Terminator as the final boss, yes, the real MEAT of the story was DLC. I will take this approach any day to the horseshit we have to deal with today. At least Bioware made an EFFORT to disguise the fact that they kind of held back some characterization for DLC. IMHO the Arrival/Overlord/Shadow Broker DLC was not only worth the price, it was more valuable to me than the ENTIRETY of ME3. In many ways, Mass Effect 3 was part of the genesis of the current fuckery/overall demise of the gaming industry as we know it I just got back into SWTOR. I love it and if CGI trailers were your basis that's in you. They set up the story. Nothing more.

Worst? Superman 64. Disappointed? Dead Space 3. Still enjoy it but knowing it ends that way.... I really want a Dead Space 4.
