You'd think it would be impossible to make a bad game based off of the hit 1952 Ford/Wayne production, but they didn't get close to the plot, location, or characters of that movie AT ALL!

I'd say the worst game I've ever finished is probably Far Cry 6.

Tron Evolution. I had watched the Tron Legacy movie and thought that the aesthetics looked really cool, so I ordered the game for $60. I installed it and played it... and the story campaign was only 4ish hours maximum. The story was forgettable. Okay... so maybe this is actually like Star Wars Battlefront 2 (for PS2) and the main thing here is supposed to be the online matches? So I do the online for a bit, and there are only a four maps. There were no other character classes to play, and only a few customization/talent/loadout options. There were only two vehicles: the Lightcycle, and the tank. That's it. That's the whole game. I was quite disappointed. Thankfully, Disney refunded me. That was the only videogame I have ever refunded. From then on I would do more research about a game before buying it.

I do not think the game was bottom of the barrel bad. The controls worked. There were no major graphical issues from what I could recall. But it just was not what I expected from a $60 game, particularly when compared with other games at the time. Handheld Pokemon games sold for $40 had way more playtime and content. Visual novels like Phoenix Wright had entertaining or gripping stories. Etc.

Civilization 5. I still remember teaching my mom how to pirate games just so I could play it once I got home from College. I was insanely looking forward to the game then it turned out to be *** cancer that redesigned the franchise and introduced several ******** decisions (1UPT). Civilization, the best series ever, turned into **** from that moment forward and I hope whoever is responsible dies a painful death.

I tried it once but couldn't stand the main character. Quit within 20 minutes.

civ5 was quite a disappointment back then yes

The worst game I've ever beaten myself would probably be Call of Juarez: The Cartel. Basically they took the western theme out of the game and set it in the modern era where you are DEA agents chasing down drug runners. The gunplay and graphics were pretty bad even for the time it came out and I was turned off by the constant swearing. It was like GTA 5 Trevor kind of swearing every sentence. Thankfully this was just a rental and I only spent a couple bucks on it but yeah it was bad especially compared to other entries in the series.

Tried it last year and it was one of the worst real games I've ever played

Disco Elysium

I would have to go with World of Warcraft, it set the profit standard every other company wanted to reach and they copied way too much from it with their games and in the end that killed the mmorpg genre. Also the artstyle and animations were bad. But so were they in ESO.

Fifa (or whatever it's called today after EA lost the licencing).

The only game series that can make me fall asleep. Boring asf. It's more fun to watch paint dry and I'm not joking.

Only reason I played it sometimes was because my brother was a Fifa junkie in the mid 2010s.

Whatever game made companies realize how easily they could milk literal ******* for cash with live service programs. GTA Online or Fortnite, maybe.

Fifa Ultimate Team and the other EA sports games with that loot box trash.

[Algol]

That recent Disco Elysium clone where you play as a Cleric/Templar or something. Don't understand why everyone is fagging out over that.

Don't know what came over me but I tried a game called Firewatch and I think it is the worst thing I ever installed. I can't call it a game because there was no gameplay. It is just a story, a stupid boring one and the whole thing was completed in about 2 hours or so. I was shocked at how bad that was. Yet there are reviews all over the internet talking about great it is. I don't trust reviews one bit anymore.

I don't know how to tell you this but you played a walking simulator. Not sure what you expected here but it sounds like it did what it set out to do

The worst game ever made is Concord, obviously, because no game was A: Made, and B: Lost so bigly. Another commonly cited contender is Big Rigs, but that is hitting meme-tier badness and becoming a "so bad it's good".
