And why? For me its definitely Warcraft 3 Reforged. They literally made a quick money grab AND you can't even play online the old W3 without having to download 30gb of trash.

This is going to be a very unpopular opinion, but Elder Scrolls peaked at Morrowind. Oblivion was a pretty big step down in quality, and Skyrim was a completely washed out shell of former Elder Scrolls games. I absolutely hated Skyrim and I don't understand why it gets such universal praise from gamers.

I enjoyed all 3 even though they were all very different. I will say that I spent countless hours in Morrowind, many hours in Skyrim, and less in Oblivion (but I beat that one on purpose just not to feel addicted to it).

Do you hate Skyrim in general? Or as an Elders Scrolls game?

[-] some_guy@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

100% agree.

Morrowind was the peak, oblivion burned me so bad I slept on fallout 3 until after new vegas came out.

I love Skyrim as a modding platform but I really feel you. So much has been lost on quest design from even Oblivion, much less Morrowind. I think Bethesda hedged their bets on exploration being the selling point way too much and it's becoming more and more apparent this has resulted in their quest design and stories suffering. First it was Skyrim, then Fallout 4, and then 76. I am not looking forward to the writing of quests in Starfield.

I am sure that it will do well, because most people love the sandbox exploration of it but imo an rpg lives or dies by its quest and story and I honestly feel as if Bethesda just doesn't have that in them any more.

Do the DOS Mega Man games count?

[-] exohuman@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Those were my first Mega Man games. Turned me off the franchise for years.

Lots of console titles in the comments here. Easy answer there is Zelda 2.

To answer the question as posed, though, Star Control 3 was a massive disappointment after its amazing predecessor.

I loved Zelda 2 as a kid. I loved the lore, reading the background story over and over and imagining what it would be like to be Link, fighting to keep your blood from being back Ganon. My brother and I would cheer each other on while taking on the dungeons. Dark Link had us horrifically surprised and it was the first RPG we beat. Great memories around that one.

i have watched zelda 2 playthrough and it actually looked really fun, even if it was very different!

Fuck the haters, Zelda 2 is the only game in the entire series I’ve played to completion.

All the other ones are super boring. I gave up on Zelda completely on Ocarina of Time.
