Now that we're halfway through the year, I figure we should start placing out bets on what 2018's biggest blunder is gonna be. As it stands I'm giving it to Radical Heights, but I'm not paying attention to what's coming out this year so anything can happen. I was convinced Mass Effect Andromeda was the biggest fuckup last year until MvCI came around, and even Lawbreakers was a good contender.

Takeshi's challenge was made extremely shitty on purpose, each part of the game crafted to be as obnoxious as possible, it isn't really a blunder.
And several of the games in there had no chance of ever being good, so why call them a blunder? I'd say some expectation has to be put on a game that fails for it to be a blunder. Else it's just regular trash, just a kusoge.

I was thinking "not LawBreakers?" but that came out 2017. I don't know if I'd give it to Radical Heights, the whole thing was a hastily slapped-together last ditch attempt to reclaim some money and stay in the game by latching onto a popular trend so it wasn't a tremendous mistake.
Now Stillborn and Lawbreakers, those were fucking tremendous mistakes. Those were made during a time they had a lot of money and a lot of time to think carefully about what they wanted to do and they completely shit the fucking bed.

I have one, but I must say it's not a good product overall.
I do like the fact that it's a portable Master System with an enhanced palette. I do not like the fact that it uses a recycled portable television for a screen. Those things were barely good enough to watch the news when you were out camping. As a game system, it's a blurry mess. The fact that it murders batteries isn't a strong point either (related to the decision to use an off-the-shelf NTSC TV).
Still, it's got a lot of good games - thank God for emulators.

Too human on the other hand had been in development since the 90s but when it released it was so painfully average that people instantly forgot about it.
If anything, the fact that no one remember jack shit about it, is testament to how it was probably more of a blunder than Spore was. But that's just me.

The range for being competent and for what it was actually going to be is a much further gap between what Too Human ended up being. In the end everybody will remember Spore for the lackluster game it is. Nobody will remember Too Human and that makes it less of a blunder as it won't be considered one in a decades time since nobody will remember it.

The reason why people remember Spore and almost nobody remembers Too Human is because Spore was going to be the magnum opus of Will Wright. This guy had been making genre defining games for years, with shit like Sim City and The Sims. It was going to be his latest, biggest, most complete gift to the world, and eeeeeveryboy was on board, and the hype was fucking unreal. The shit you were supposed to be able to do was mind-blowing, being able to control literally every facet of life itself, from being a single cell amoeba all the way to a space faring race with the painstakingly deep attention to detail and appropriately in-depth customization to boot. Nothing was impossible, that was the sentiment people were led to believe before the game was released.
And then it was released.

I think a blunder is defined by the failure to meet sales expectations vs its overall marketing and hype surrounding it. Bonus points if there's ever paid reviews that make it look "amazing" (IE: TORtanic).

To get to the center of the galaxy. But that's a rather vague question. There are several factions and questlines beside the main questline. Depending on game mode the immediate objective might also be survival. There are the sentinels, planetary hazards and predators coupled with an always shrinking supply of vital resources.

Labo made money, sold well, and is actually fun if you use it for what it is instead of moaning that it's not a "traditional" game. Gotta remember that Nintendo is also a toy company.
The garage mode is pretty great. If you like to tinker or have kids that like fiddling with shit (ever have an electronics kit when you were little? you'd probably have loved Labo) then it's good. Just because it's not for you specifically, doesn't mean it's shit.

I like a good shitpost as much as the next guy, but it feels pre-emptive to make a call like this so early. Instead, I say we make another chart like this, which - despite inviting plenty of screeching - is overall a reminder to play video games and a chance for anons to discuss what few good games are released each year.
>but that list is full of shitty games
Believe it or not, it was even worse initially. We'd better make the next one better to compensate. If anyone's interested, give me a game and a reason why it's actually worth your time. Box art helps.

There's three alien languages you can learn, there are guilds focused on a different aspects of the game and ancient ruins holding old lore. Furthermore there's crafting, basebuilding, you can find all sorts of stuff on planets, settlers, wrecks and so on and so on.
You have no arguments, you can just post 'muh bait' like niggers go 'muh dick' when they have no response.

Unlike Spore there's actually a narrative here. The story is pretty satisfying honestly. And it's not like you start out with that objective from the getgo.

Give it some more time, if it gets no new sets from the first two not selling (or even next year because I would imagine they must have some sort of follow up kits), then it's a blunder.
I will say it bizarre from what I heard that Nintendo made something for kids but actual kids seem too impatient to assemble the larger models (like the robot) themselves and then the amount of (game) playtime with those larger models is about the same time length as assembly. Then when there done with it, you now have a bulky cardboard peripheral that has to be stored away carefully to prevent damage.

Good fucking list.
Also, for Shaq-Fu to be considered the blunder of 1994 shows just how good that year was for games.
2018 is going to be hard to find a blunder for. I'm betting my money on something showcased at E3 that'll drop this year, hopefully it'll be Fallout 76. Otherwise, Bless Online seems to be winning the blunder race so far.

Even if it's nowhere near close to the blunders in either year, Revolution 60 is worth mentioning. It was released on iOS in 2014, and PC in 2016.
As an aside, I'm definitely reserving judgement on the blunder of this year for now. Radical Heights is the only one I can really think of offhandedly, and it's nowhere near as bad as some of the shit in recent years.

It doesn't really classify as a blunder if it's a "literally who" of videogames. It has to be a massive, international flop. That thing never even released outside of Japan.
The Atari Jaguar was a bigger blunder than that was.

I think Shaq-Fu sums it up perfectly. Only change I would make to that list is for 2011, because LSL has always been niche, and didn't a gigantic publicly overhyped flop. I personally would've used Brutal Legend, Champions Online, Aion, Wet, or Velvet Assassin. But hard to quantify a blunder for that year, because everything that had come out in 2009 was on the good/bad side of mediocrity.

MvCI had high sales expectations since the precious games were very popular. For whatever reason, this time people didn't just happily shovel down the shit they were served. And now it's dead.
No one expected anything from Lawbreakers except that it would be shit, and it was and it failed. Battlefield propaganda edition still sold well IIRC, and anyone that knew how pozzed it was knew that long before launch so it wasn't a flop in that sense either.

Revolution 60 was a shit game alright, I doubt it had a very big budget though, but if you can count games like Big Rigs or The Slaughtering Grounds I guess it counts.
For 2018 Radical Heights and MG Survive are certified blunders. I feel like we might be adding Battlefield V (can't wait to see it finally bomb) and some other stinker later in the year though.

That fucking game… it looked like so much of what I like wrapped up in a nice package. A hot girl, guns, swords, car chases, and yakuza. And then I played it. The gunplay mechanics are damn near unusable in a game where gunplay is a major component. To call it disappointing is an insult to disappointment.

I think it's very relevant. Many of the dungeons of Arena and Daggerfall were procedurally generated but really fun to explore and triumph over. Actually many of the towns and so on were all procedurally generated in the first two games too and it was great since it added scope never really seen before or after. Even though they were created using algorithms they were more compelling than both the human made content of Oblivion and Skyrim.
