The Order: 1886 is one of those games that give me flashbacks because it was one of the franchises that impressed me a lot and watched all of its trailers during the announcement of PS4 but I literally remembered now that I never played it and never even watched its walkthroughs. I skipped it in this video too to avoid any spoilers because I'm gonna definitely play it these days since there's no interesting new stuff.
When I first played it I thought of it as "meh', but I think thats because of all the negativity surrounding it at the time. I replayed it again 2-3 years ago for the Platinum trophy and I was surprised by how actually decent-good it is. Its not amazing or anything, but its definitely worth playing. Has some very interesting ideas and is gorgeous to this day.
I think that as a whole, the setting for Order 1886 wasn't used nearly as well as it could have been. Most of the game is at best generic or uninspired when it comes to gameplay but the setting and world itself are interesting to me. I would of loved if they made at least another game based in that world so that we could explore more of what is already there, and maybe some things that they might have thought up but didn't get the time to properly implement it.
See but that's something I don't get. In terms of gameplay, to me the last of us is just as generic. And the story is also not as original as people like to believe. But in comparison the order has a much more interesting setting which redeems the game a little. I don't get all the hype for the last of us when these two games have the same issues
@@thesicilian98 I think that the main thing that really carried TLoU was just a really well crafted and compelling story that was just long enough to understand and like both characters, whereas Order 1886 was relatively short. I liked both games for different reasons but one was far easier to sell on making a sequel of as more people were invested in. Haven't played TLoU2 myself but I haven't heard anything near the almost universal praise that the first game got.
The setting and characters of The Order 1886 just begged to be explored and expanded upon in a sequel. A few gameplay refinements and a bit more player control could have made this a standout series. Unfortunately, the likelihood that we will ever get a sequel is pretty much nil.
It really is a shame. Less QTE and more player agency would have been amazing. As it stands we just have to hope someone else makes something within a similar kind of world and feel to it.
Agreed. Order 1886 remains one of those games I occasionally think about and am like "Imagine if that had actually taken off". It had so much in its favor but a short length and recycled "boss battles" really put people off. The whole setting and a good chunk of the story are just begging to be fleshed out and it ended on a note that was just asking for a crazy sequel. But we'll never get that so...oh well.
1 mission that always stuck with me was in Far Cry 4. There was a mission when you go into a drugs factory and Jogi from Punjabi MC starts playing in a shoot out. It was awesome at the time of playing.
Hitman Absolution is the first Hitman game I played, and I always thought it was actually a good game. I loved it at least. The shaving Lenny level was definitely the most memorable for me too. Especially the first part. The level had such a nice atmosphere. The music was great. The music in the little diner really stuck with me. It was very westerny with the whistle. There was a lot to do and three targets to go for at the same time (or was it four? not sure anymore). Great level indeed.
Unity was far from a flop. It was also a very good game but just had a disastrous launch. It also had a huge sales spike in early 2020. I'd take another game like Unity over the last few AC games to come out any day.
Same. People like to hate on the game even though they never played it, justmparrot what they heard. I played a good amount of it, at launch on PS4 at a friend's house and it was fine. I didn't encounter very many bugs at all. What I hate about the new games is all the enemies are super spongy (same with Far Cry 6) I guess Ubisoft is moving towards that for some reason. I want to stealthfully assassinate targets, not get into a long drawn out sword fight.
Fr! I think Unity was the last best and true Assassin’s Creed game. Syndicate or Rogue needed to be on this list, those games were boring repetitive garbage and the new witcher rip off excuses of a game they have as well.
Whenever I hear people complain about Duke Nukem Forever, I always think to myself, "but... that mission where you shrink down and drive a tiny car around is really fun". So I'm glad someone finally mentioned it on RU-vid. I was starting to think that maybe I DREMPT that mission.
Unity doesn't deserve the hate it gets. Glitchy, yes, and the online only portions were a little in-your-face. But it looks good, and had some great characters. Plus it had some of the best looking options for outfits that actually DID something in the game.
@@yootoobsuks4210 I never owned the game but I did play a lot of it at my friend's house and we never found any game breaking bugs, just little annoyances, and this was when the game was new (He was playing the PS4 version). I enjoyed what I played of it. It's not bad.
It's actually one of the best creed games that actually had a center focus on assassins and templers.... Black flag might be a great game. But it isn't a assassin creed game... first to just tag it on.. the focus is the theme
Legend of Legaia, and the whole floating castle mission, especially the end of it. There are only two "Escape" sequences in the entire game, and they're the only times that the on-screen countdown timer appears, making you go "Oh god, I have to do something." The other countdown event is pretty good too, because you're forced to use an item/action that allows you to escape the dungeon, a la Escape Rope, as there's no way to escape it otherwise. This RPG was rather niche, and it never got the love it really deserved. Mega Man Legends' battle against the Gesellschaft was also a great mission. The culmination of your rivalry between the Bonnes and you makes this the climatic battle you hoped it would be, and it does NOT disappoint. While Mega Man Legends 2 was overall better in quality of life/etc. this battle in the first one outshines pretty much all of the content in both games.
I think you meant The legend of dragoon that came as a final fantasy killer. Still, great game. Legend of legaia wasn't a flop if i remember correctly.
@@rowanfarmer9029 its somewhat good but the rpg system is really really bad in the game and unlocking skins are a pain in the ass the only thing great in the game is black panther .
Would love to see a part 2. For me the one that always comes to mind was the opening mission of Destiny 2, the one where the Tower gets destroyed. It had a strong "this is for the gameplay demos and trailers so we should put all the effort into that one" vibe, and let's be real Destiny 2's launch was otherwise pretty underwhelming. I remember later DLC overwriting this as the starting mission cos story reasons and honestly that was a stupid move 🤦, dunno if they added accessibility to it back I haven't been back to the game in a good while
There's no possible way that Destiny 2 could be classed as a flop though. It's been a cash cow for bungie. Fully agree on that mission being class though, in the courtyard of the tower fighting alongside zavala is one of my favourite moments in gaming.
I didn't get them terribly on my Xbox either. Maybe just a couple here and there. Cyberpunk was the same way for me. I feel like people blow some of these issues way out of proportion.
Guys, I love this list!!! Such a fun Idea! Makes me want to replay old classics. Falcon these quirky gaming tales are totally your wheelhouse. That was such a fun idea who ever thought of making that list. You are....a genius.
I love resident evil 6. I don't get why everyone hates it. Their was so many ways to play that game. The campaigns were so multi diminsional. The ways the stories seamlessly crossed paths. Four campaigns, the first three had alternate characters so you could play as Helena or Leon, Jake or sherry, Leon or Piers. that's just the campaign. The online options really tripled the amount of ways you could play the game.
RE6 is disliked because it’s the absolute farthest from what Resident Evil is meant to be. Simple as that. Its a really fun game it’s just also extremely ridiculous to the Most extreme length.
Not a bad game, but as many others have said it’s a close as possible to not being a RE game while having the title that could ever exist. It also came out in a time when there were many generic third person shooters around and many sections of the game off as such. Again, it’s not bad and I enjoy it. But as an RE game I think it’s a huge flop
If you ignore the tone of all the other games in the series(With the exception of 5), then it’s an incredible experience. I still go back every now and then just to have a fist fight with the Nemesis wannabe at the end of Jakes story. It’s the closest to actually feeling like Wesker that you’ll ever get from the games, and I’m including his playable counterparts in the mercenaries mode of 4,5, and Revelations.
I loved absolution, there was a mission where you basically are just in a gun shop/range and you can just pick up a gun from the rack load in some ammo and shoot up the place, I must have replayed the mission 10+ times when I was younger, the sociopath in me very much enjoyed that game lol, I remember the shooting being good too it reminded me of the splinter cell games
Oddly enough I felt Leon's campaign in RE6 was the most forgettable outside of how often Helena kept upsetting me. Chris and Jake's campaigns are the ones that gave me a lot of emotions to process. I might be slightly biased though because I rarely ever hear people talk about Piers in a pleasant light when he was exactly the kind of companion Chris needed.
I'm with you. Piers was an awesome character. The Chris campaign was the only part worth of playing in my opinion. Leon/Helena and Ada were ok, but damn, Jake/Sherry session is boring as f...
To be honest, i think ada's was because i played split screen and...yeah it sucked in split screen. Player 2 cant do anything except fight. Only Ada can interract with anything. Otherwise though, i loved RE6
I enjoyed playing Ada's part of RE6 and I will give it props for how it was possible to have 4 players at times when the story lines crossed but overall the action adventure quick-time nonsense really did make make it more of a black sheep even than Chris'es face in RE7.
@@BigMobe its great fun. Whats wrong with experiencing it with two players? Also, ill have you know the only reason ada's was fucked is cuz they rushed it after people got upset ada didnt have a two player campaign when all the others did.
Unity, atleast at the moment, is a pretty good game. Awesome story, great gameplay. Ive replayed it atleast half a dozen times. It deserves better treatment than being called a flop. It may have been at launch but its not anymore
I played the avengers game during a free week and beat almost the whole game except the last level, and I had a good time with it. I haven't liked marvel movies in almost a decade, but the story in this one wasn't bad. The gameplay was fun, and I enjoyed myself, but I totally see how people that purchased the game were upset. They should have focused more on the fun factors than artificially trying to extend playtime and overcharge for every outfit. If they had more unlockable content, and were less aggressive with monetization, they could have made a pretty good game. I mean, the graphics were pretty dang good
It had the potential to be a really solid story with some solid gameplay behind it, if they would have simply focused on the game as a single player adventure. Sorta like how GotG turned out.
Part of the fun of these games is unlocking skins. Look at spiderman ps4. All those skins free to unlock and the game still made money and its dlc sold itself
@@jlaw12204 it's not enough to make money for these companies. They want ALL OF THE MONEY. Making a profit is nowhere near enough and it never will be.
@@sindri1447 i know, its almost a lesson in everything you can do wrong. Like they fucked up an avengers video game at the height of the MCUs popularity around the time of endgame. This game should have been an easy layup in success and money made.
Not surprised there were some great missions/areas found in these games. All games on this list scored above average (metacritic). They were decent (for the most part), just not 8's 9's or 10's.
I personally liked Hitman absolution, it being my first hitman game, I enjoyed playing it, and would love to replay it on harder difficulty. and also great vid as always guys.
They're good games, but either a) Have a massive flaw or b) Unrecognizable by the franchise's standards. Order 1886 has a great setting, but the length is too short. Avengers has a decent story, but muddled by monetizations. Absolution is a good game, but it's not a good Hitman game. Same goes for RE6, Downpour and Unity.
@@EatWave It's probably just a misuse of the word in Gameranx's team. I'm sure they meant as games that are average; not terrible but not well received either.
Oh, those MoH driving sections brought back memories from a game I've indeed mostly forgotten. Collision physics looks janky from the video, but in terms of overall handling, I remember thinking it was better than TDU2 and NFS games of the time.
The Abomination was one of the few parts in Marvel’s Avengers where you really can see what the game could be if it wasn’t infected with Micro-transactions and bugs. They should have had more of the Villains in the game setting up rivals for each of the Avengers and one of the final sections would have the villains teaming up in an Anti-Avenger Team, forcing the Avengers to work together and Ms. Marvel is the one that tips the scales in the Heroes’ favor.
I liked Watch Dogs too. People kept harping on Aidan, but the game itself was great. There were many great missions in it, more than the sillier sequel, which was also fun in its own way.
The final mission in Medal of Honor:Airborne. It's an intense infiltration of a German flak tower. The mini boss fights with a stormtrooper wielding an MG42 is super intense.
Titanfall 2 is a perfect example. Don’t get me wrong titanfall 2 is a good game one of my favourites and it wasn’t a complete Flop - but that time travel mission. ✨masterpiece✨
Yeah. I love the mechanics of MGS V, It's great in that regard. The missions however were just not that great. I think maybe they should hhave had an open world but made story missions a lot more linear.
Agreed. I enjoyed the hell out of Mafia 3. Especially the setting and era of muscle cars, but I think people/reviewers (unfairly) tried to compare it to the GTA franchise. While anyone familiar with the Mafia series should know better, it did get a little repetitive, but I highly enjoyed my play through.
Hitman is my favorite game series, blood money's Mardi Gras mission was a instant classic. And the 3 latest games are phenomenal imo. The replay value is high
I wonder if they realize that 98% of the bug in AC Unity were fixed over time. Game sites always talk about the bugs in games, but rarely mention that those very bugs were also fixed with later updates and patches.
Yes!!! I was thinking about kane & lynch then there it is!! I remember the story was crap but somehow the camera, pace, level design...etc everything made their missions tight and immersive!! That's one of the best co-op shooter i've played with a friend. Happy it made the list and its not forgotten.
the thing about Duke Nukem, It is a game that was supposed to release in 2001, and was stuck in development hell. and the humor in that game reflects that. I swear if it released when it was supposed to, it would have gotten a better reception
I laugh out loud every time someone calls Aiden Pearce a bland boring character 😂 Just shows they never played the Bloodlines DLC(even tho he’s not even that bland in WD1)
Metal Gear Survive - creature in the fog mission. Rage - The city mission with the titan. Prince of Persia 2008 - Post credits objective Ratchet & Clank Size Matters - Giant Clank mission (best music in any game ever).
Unity was NOT a flop game. It was in my top 3 of favorite assassins creed games and it genuinely had the best parkour/gameplay of them all. Story was good too I really enjoyed it.
Hey, you get to go pretty crazy with Hulk in SEGA 'The Incredible Hulk' on the 360. No one ever talks about that game, maybe I'm remembering it with rose-colored glasses lol
the Resident Evil 6 entry made me think of the bait and switch in Metal Gear Solid 2, with the opening mission being exactly what fans were drooling for and then the actual game being nothing like it at all.
You were completely spot on with the Avengers one. The way it's designed with all of the game servicey junk, insufferable *never-ending* missions, worthless gear system, & overall UI design. And you described the characters perfectly. They feel so damn generic and bootleg to me, it's ridiculous. And I haven't even mentioned Spider-Man yet... Don't even get me started on that bullsh*t. Lol
Me and my sister absolutely LOVES resident evil 6, we always played coop campaign on the ps3 because it was so fun, our favorite story is leon and helena, and jake and cherry. still tho i really like every RE game and all the games are fun
Marvels Avengers was an amazing game until after the abomination boss fight. Then it just went downhill. I wonder what they're up to now. It's like the game is dead
At the moment they are currently releasing a shit ton of skins such as ones which resemeble the mcu and while dont get me wrong they look sick... u do have to pay for each one. Last actual proper content drop was the black panther release which i believe was 6 + months ago Next hero is rumoured to be jane foster thor but i dont think the player base will be there when it drops
Resident Evil 6 is probably my favorite co-op shooter, it was so fun. And the story was so trash it was actually gold, we laughed so much at the cut-scene of the demise of the main villain
Honestly, I REALLY enjoyed Medal Of Honor's multiplayer. Like, if that wasn't DOA, I'd probably STILL play it. I probably would've played it more than BF3. Certainly more than ANY COD I played except MW2, but maybe if my friends would've played it instead, I would've swapped my multiplayer times in those 2 games, and put line 1,000 hours into MoH instead, and like 30 into MW2. I'm really sad that almost nobody played it, and Warfighter just wasn't as good.
I think It's kind of funny that without the Medal of Honor series there would be no COD. The team that made Medal of Honor Allied Assault (which at the time was the best WW2 game) left EA to form Infinity Ward where they then made Call Of Duty, basically building on what they had done previously on Medal of Honor. Then those people left Infinity Ward after Modern Warfare 2 to form Respawn who then gave us Titan fall (and Jedi Fallen Order). Definitely skilled developers.
Very upset at #9. I bought hitman absolution when it came out on the Xbox 360. I absolutely loved the game and at the time was a absolute masterpiece. It really brought hitman to the next gen of Xbox 360 in 2012. I actually prefer some elements in this over the new hitman games like using his power was super fun with the pistols, to stop and lock on everything then fire. Now obviously if you’re comparing a game which almost came out 10 years later then it’s going to be worse. But it still does not deserve to be on a list of bad games!
I remember beating Order 1886 in 6 hours and promptly returning it the same day I got it. The same dude was still on shift at the Gamestop and he even gave me back my full $60
There were lots of people who complained about it but Resident Evil 6 was far from a flop. It was one of Capcom's most financially successful titles to date.
My favorite part of Resident Evil 6 is that it's my very first game in the RE Franchise since Late 2017 and Early 2018, making me become a huge fan of it to now
