2023 is almost over, and it has been an absolute triumph of a year for terrible videogames. From Gollum to Redfall, so many slices of software slimed their way onto shelves. From Kong to The Walking Dead, so much has been the absolute worst. Let's meet Skeletor once again and do this salty thing.

@3Rayfire 5 месяцев назад

@@SpiderGansta Locks. A Soft lock I believe is when a character gets stuck. But you can get out of it, by say jumping over and over to dislodge yourself. A hard lock is when you have to reset. This was punned with the word locks, as in Goldilocks, meaning hair (not to be confused with the Scottish Loch, which means lake). Thus there are more soft locks (moments of being stuck) than Rapunzel (who has soft hair that can make a ten story climbable rope).

Yeah the crime system in that game is absolute trash, it's like every single item in the game has some magical tracker.

@BadgerOff32 5 месяцев назад

@@mrcheesemunch While I do agree that the crime system is screwed, the joke from the Angry Joe video revolves around one particular quest line that makes the crime system seem even more laughable! One quest actually requires that you get arrested so that a secret police force can coerce you into working undercover for them, but that means you actually need to commit a crime first. ANY crime. No matter how small. Which means that, at some point in the game, any minor transgression you commit, even something as pathetic as accidentally picking up a drink in a bar that doesn't belong to you, will _instantly_ make you the MOST WANTED CRIMINAL IN THE UNIVERSE, and every time you warp somewhere or try to visit a city, you will be mercilessly hunted down until they can arrest you! It's actually pretty bloody dumb.

Gollum is so fascinating in how even after it's infamous reception that caused the developers, Daedalic Entertainment, to shut down their development division as a result the game is STILL being sold on store shelf's from my country Sweden. How has NO ONE bothered to remove this utter garbage of a game from the stores? The fact that Skull Island: Rise of Kong and The Walking Dead game hasn't shutdown Gamemill Entertainment from publishing games is utterly baffling to say the least. Surprised that The Day Before isn't here given how such a scam the game was that it shut down the developers very shortly after release. Silent Hill Ascension is a demonstration that the concept of "sinking to new lows" has ABSOLUTELY no limit and Konami will always find ways to somehow baffle gamers with these atrocious decisions.

My main criticism of magic in fantasy games for forever has been that it is usually just various ways to shoot guys, not actually cool stuff that changes how you play the game like mind control, teleportation, etc. When I learned that Aveum literally just had magic that was guns I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

@zackeryh250 5 месяцев назад

I actually don't even need it to be mechanically as complicated as mind control. Give spells that are aura effects. Give spells that freeze or knock people into the air. Give spells that do what guns can't like AOE effects. Give spells that impale or disable. I feel like most spell slinging games are just working off the shotgun, pistol, sniper, machine gun, melee mix that games have been working off for decades.

Merry Christmas! I do hope you feel better soon! I've watched a few episodes of Silent Hill: Ascension through a streamer and I'm honestly convinced it was written by AI. They claim it's not, but characters talk past each other, break conversational flow, and just act weird so much it feels like a robot had to have a hand in building something this bad.

Hey Steph! Once again it is that time of the year, so I am going to say thanks! There isn't many things in my life that are as constant as my admiration of your work. You have the wit and eloquence to entertain, the sharpness and memory the industry deserves and the rebellious point of view that makes you one of the only people in games media I truly trust. Thank you for your amazing dedication, never missing a monday and never failing to be insightful. Also 2023 continued the trend of transforming the jimquisition from the "videogame industry bad" show I appreciated into the menagerie of madness I love. You never turned a blind eye to the problems the industry had and will likely continue to have for a very long time, but you wrapped it all up in a packet that leaves me feeling entertained, educated and inspired, rather than disturbed and angry. Though there are still plenty of moments for that of course, Ubisoft still exists after all. The point however is that you truly do come across as happier, even in this episode when you feel sick as all hell but more across the year and ever since your coming out. Thank you for sharing that joy and thank you for getting back into written reviews. I know they have been coming for a while but this was the year I started reading them again because you credited those with revitalizing your love for gaming and truly it shows. weather you like a game or not the appreciation for the medium oozes from them and it is inspiring. Thank you as well for your own contributions to videogames. Your writing in Vampire survivors was great and reminded me of Jazzpunk wich I absolutely loved while truly being it's own thing. Thank god, as always, for you!

Thank you, Steph, for playing these games, so I will never have to. I am surprised that Forspoken didn't make the list, though. I'm guessing it's because it came out in January, and so many other crap games came out after it.

@crazyluigi6664 5 месяцев назад

@CeHee123 5 месяцев назад

Forspoken has terrible writing but gameplay wise, though not great, probably still wouldn't be enough to qualify. Day Before was probably released too late to make the list.

@gwen9939 5 месяцев назад

Forspoken was a bland corporate product but far from the real contenders for worst games of the year. The only reason it stuck around in people's heads as the worst possible thing is because chuds kept talking about how it made them turn inside-out from cringe, and because a black woman said it they associate it with wokeness, not the soulless corporate management creative overreach trying to be marvel-quippy because they think it's what the kids want.
