VGChartz’s Craig S: “Who doesn’t love a good dose of schadenfreude every now and then? There was no shortage of that on offer in terms of video games last year, hidden in plain sight amongst the more genuine disappointments (I’ll leave it for you to decide which category each of the following games falls into).
One unfortunate trend when it comes to the biggest disappointments of the last year was that so many were new IPs, including Bethesda’s latest major release Starfield, the Arkane Studio B-team’s abortive attempt at a co-op vampire shooter, and Square Enix’s action RPG Forspoken. Mega-franchise Call of Duty and the perennially delayed The Lord of the Rings: Gollum round out the list of Nominees.”
