  • Good points, but a few of these are mixing up controversy with genuine critics.

    • Arkham Knight’s performance was terrible at launch. But many Ubisoft games could make this list, they were quite famous for their buggy games for some time.
    • Along with the Diablo 2 remake, you could add the Warcraft 3 remaster as well which was nonetheless apparently abysmal, but which also removed the original game from Battle.NET. We may also add most remakes and remasters, it feels like an exception when a remaster is generally appreciated.
    • Like Starfield, Fallout 4 was also heavily criticized at launch for the same reasons: unengaging story, always the same bugs, lackluster roleplay due to the voiced character… But maybe that’s always the case with every new Bethesda game.
    • If I remember correctly, on of the main issues with Alien: Colonial Marines wasn’t so much that it was a terrible and unfinished game (which it was), but that the demo released was very engaging, and a completely unfair representation of the actual game, which was considered false advertising.
