Games You Regret Buying

Team Fortress 2. It literally went FTP a couple months after I got it, and the hat you got that shows you paid for it is super ugly and stupid looking on every class except sniper.

yeah i got mine in orange box but hey then i didn't need to get extra lol
 
I'm most positive I have posted here before but I can't remember! D: So here is my list of regrets:

Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs: terrible game, nothing like its predecessor, different writers, took too many elements out only to replace them with nothing, monsters are pigs (who's afraid of pigs???) and zero interaction with the (rather linear) environment around you.

Alice: Madness Returns: glitchy, textures are everywhere, the characters are boring and under-used, doesn't match the tone of the first game, terrible one dimensional villain, linear, disappointing gameplay, disappointing lack of boss fights, once you have a certain weapon you're pretty much OP for the rest of the game.

L.A. Noire: luckily got this game on sale over Steam but it will not run on my computer so I can't play it yet. :(

Paper Mario: Sticker Star- this game is such garbage I want to light it on fire, it shouldn't even be in the Paper series, it's a failure to the utmost degree, it angers me just mentioning it let's move on. >8U

Mario and Luigi: Dream Team- I own and love all the Mario and Luigi games, and I don't really care much for this one, only played through a portion of it and lost interest.

Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep: I was luckily able to sell this so I recouped some of the money for it, terrible game, uninteresting characters, typical case of KH being overblown and convoluted beyond saving. I don't have any hopes for this series anymore.

I despised LA Noir :( It's another one of those games I was really looking forward to but fell flat for me. And there were certain elements of the story that pushed my buttons so I really can't say anything good about it. -_-
 
the first Persona game (the 'remake' for PSP), The Sims 3, Persona 4 Arena, Resident Evil Revelations 2 (though i was given the money to buy it from a friend for my birthday, i still wish i would have bought something else). Sonic 2006, Sonic and the Secret Rings, Final Fantasy XIII
 
resident evil revelations 2. i was super hyped for it, for reasons any RE fan would know, but the game was so dull and boring and when it ended i was just like "... that's it?" i hate the ending sooo much. love the characters, hate the game. idk if i'll ever want to play it again. huge letdown imo.
 
chivalry: medieval warfare - lag lag lag lag and more lag (even on the lowest of settings)

yoshi's new island - they might was well called this one "yoshi's island 3d" because thats basically what it is

new super mario bros 2 - beat the game in a couple of hours, lame dlc, just overall boring

kingdom hearts dream drop distance - never played it

pokemon mystery dungeon gates to infinity - boring and bland

scribblenauts for the 3ds - i literally bought the same game on the ios app store for 99 cents. yeah.

simcity 5 - TERRIBLE.

pokemon black 2 - i never brought myself to finishing it.

postal 2 - glitchy mess



yeah
 
Paper Mario Sticker Star: It was good at first but the difficulty curve was insane and kinda boring :/
 
Battlefield Hardline. I don't fully regret buying it but if I could back I wouldn't spend $50 on it :/

Lovely Planet. It was cheap af though but still. Buggy as **** and movement is clunky.

Don't get it lol unless you collect badges.
 
Officially decided to get rid of both Fantasy Life and Rune Factory 4 today. Thinking of getting rid of my second copy of New Leaf as well, because while it was fun to start setting up my second town, I never finished (sooo much work and I just didn't have the patience, lol) so I think I'm ultimately better off just sticking with one town, one copy, that's it.

Radiata Stories and Mana Khemia are still gathering dust...

I actually sold my Fantasy Life today as well. I've not played it since I got it and I was pretty disappointed with it. I wish I sold it sooner so I got more from it (or even better, I wish I never bought it)

I got a Diddy Kong amiibo from it though. I didn't want another game, I'm already backlogged, I just wanted to make sure the trade in price didn't fall more.

I regret buying Dissidia Final Fantasy (and selling it to Gamestop, who only gave me a few dollars for it) and MySims. Dissidia did help me get interested in Final Fantasy X (and got me to buy it), I thought it was really disappointing--the gameplay and story--but it has been so long since I played it, I forgot a lot of the specific reasons I disliked it. Same goes for MySims[/I and all of the earliest Sims games for consoles with the exception of the Sims 2 Pets for the Playstation 2; I admit I don't remember anything about the games at all.
 
Ratchet & Clank trilogy/collection for PS Vita. I really like the games but it seems they crammed too much into the port, it was a bit clunky imo with the camera
 
DKC: Tropical Freeze, I didn't bother to finish it since the controlls were iffy to me and it was not as fun as I expected
 
For the people who regret buying fantasy life, can anyone explain fully why it is not worth buying?

It just wasn't that fun. It didn't provide as much freedom as was promised (which was it's whole selling point).


- For starters, the difficulty was almost none existent.

- The story was...Well, it was there I guess.

- It said you could 'live the life you wanted', which is correct as long as that 'life' is a combat role where you kill things, which is my main gripe here. You can't progress through the game without combat, so you're pretty much forced into one of the three combat classes because of this.

- The combat sucks by the way, so have fun having to do it.

- The 'jobs' outside of combat were pretty lame compared to what they claimed it to be. If you've ever played 'World of Warcraft' then they're pretty much exactly the same as how professions worked in that. The only difference is you have to do a repetitive mini-game (or you can skip the mini-game if you want. Now it's exactly the same as WoW professions). Is that a system you would pay ?40 to play?

- Everything is just grinding. It's not a hard game, it's just repetitive grinding constantly repetitively grinding the same repetitive grinding stuff constantly. This is fine in an MMO like WoW because the grinding is something you do to waste time whilst you're waiting for a raid to start or something. It's not something I would choose to just sit down and do.

It's essetially just 'World of Warcraft DS' with 90% of the content removed and it's single player.
