I really dislike many games many people seem to love
The Sims series
My own life is much more exciting then these games. Maybe other people just live boring lives?
Halo series
Very average First Person Shooters. Not really that bad, until you start counting all the crazy people who say its the greatest game in the world.
Homeworld series
Pretty to look at, but very simple and easy to beat, with not alot of tactical choices. Although some mods that change the gameplay make it much more fun.
Grand Theft Auto series
The first ones were kind of boring, but I guess fun(If you like running over people)
The 3rd one and its expansion were just horribly boring to me. I prefer some level of realism in games like this. The game physics , bad story and repetitive nature of the game made me hate it.
Most of the Final Fantasy series
The first few were fine as dungeon crawler types, but after VI there is very little redeeming quality left in the series to me.
Most of the Command and Conquer series
The games are essentially exactly the same as time goes on. So very little innovation over so long, especially when the gameplay is so simple, is a bad thing. And Generals was just plain horrible.
Doom 3
Boring, easy, not scary.
Half Life 2
Other then my eternal hatred against Steam, Half Life 2 is okay as a first person shooter. All the people saying its so great make me dislike it strongly though.
Morrowind
Shallow NPCs, shallow quests, shallow game world in general. Severely limited character interaction, almost non existant dialogue, weak combat system. Some of the mods and the last expansion fix some aspects, but they don't fix enough for me to like it.
Neverwinter Nights
Very boring, VERY ugly (How do you make something so ugly with modern graphics? I still play Wasteland and think it looks fine!) the singleplayer is very bad, being almost entirely hack and slash. Thats a problem with alot of D20 games I've found. Just wish this game had more depth, but it didn't. Some of the user created mods are very good, but looking at the game for too long hurt my eyes.
System Shock 1
I played System Shock 2 before System Shock 1. Everything good about it is better in System Shock 2. Since System Shock 2 is so much better, I just could never make myself like System Shock 1 very much, which is odd, because I love System Shock 2 so much.
Xcom Apocalypse
Maybe I'm just afraid of change? To me, the best Xcom game is the first one. Apocalypse just kind of annoyed me with all these little bugs and problems.
Arcanum
I love the boys at Troika, I love indepth Role playing games, I love the steampunk setting. What I don't love is a half finished buggy and imbalanced combat system and so many dungeons that require its use. Please forgive me Troika! I'm sorry!
Wow, this is a really negative first post.
Let me bring it up some by saying I love Sacrafice too! Surprised to see so many people here like it, I thought most people didn't.
