Anyone remember the Kane & Lynch games? Most people said they were shit, but I actually found them fun
Kane & Lynch always sounded to me like Jane & Finch
Kinetica for PS2
- Nausiating physics engine
- Tacky and nonsensical maps
- Unnecessarily and confusingly sexualized characters
But it’s a fun fast-paced racing sim and the soundtrack slaps.
Sonic R. Genuinely the worst racing game I’ve ever played. But the low poly models and the music are so charming to me. I used to just sit down and 100% it when I was stressed.
Raid: Shadow Legends. The commercialization is ridiculous, the constant attempts to grab money are downright pathetic, but hey, it looks good on my tablet.
A likely story. How much did they pay you for this “ad”?

Is Skyrim a bad game?, I have 2500+ hours on it
I really don’t enjoy bad games. They’re bad because something significant disrupts the fun, such as major bugs, janky mechanics, poor pacing, bland story or characters, no sense of progression, grindy RNG time-wasting, systems (e.g. crafting) that are either far too shallow or way too convoluted, half-baked level design, or even external factors like obnoxious DRM or microtransactions.
The bad game I sunk the most time into by far is No Man’s Sky. People keep insisting “it’s good now”, but all the gameplay mechanics are truly awful. It’s an okay sandbox and entertaining enough if that’s all you’re after, but as a game specifically it has about 2/3 of the issues I mentioned above.

So many dick jokes. So much fun though
dark souls 2. i actually don’t even think it’s bad, but people seem to not like it.
Here’s the thing. Dark Souls 2 is the worst Dark Souls game, but the worst Dark Souls game is still miles ahead of 95% of the other day-one-dlc-riddled, mtx-infested triple-a trash released since.
Dark Souls 2 is great. I’ve beat it 10+ times.

Looking at you Dragon’s Dogma 2, absolute disappointment.
Robocraft is pretty awful. The current game is in maintenance mode. The only thing the devs can make is their LEGO-like live service game, but even that is too hard for them. This year they just quit and restarted on yet another attempt of a sequel to the only thing they’ve had success with. That being said, I still enjoy spending hours in the lab and shooting apart other players’ creations.
Robocraft used to be one of my favorite games and slowly watching it become worse was painful.
A little out of left field, Miasmata from back in like the 2010’s. It is pretty rough around the edges, and the special antagonist AI system was over-promised and under-delivered… But for a literal two-brothers dev team, the cartography system is solid, and the art is passable at worst and when the light hits the island just right, it’s downright picturesque. I’d say it’s worth your time if it’s still available on steam.
Power and Revolution (geopolitical simulator 4) absolute jankiest (grand strategy?) game I’ve ever played and bugged as hell but I often come back to it because it scratches some my itches perfectly. If anyone has any game similar to this one I’m all ears
Dead by Daylight.
Objectively pay-to-win garbage that survives purely off novelty, but god damn if it isn’t fun at the highest level of play. Once you’ve paid for all the content, there are very few games that allow that level of variety and character customization.
I’d argue the exact opposite. It’s a fun game to play with new players or in a private lobby with a bunch of friends, but at the highest levels it’s absolutely horrible. You don’t really get more options to make the game more fun as you progress, instead the most effective options are to actively ruin the experience for the other side.
There was an item in the game that survivors could use to instantly complete an objective. If all four brought one it instantly completed 4 of 5 objectives. It was eventually nerfed shortly before I stopped playing, but it’s a perfect example of the kind of game-ruining mechanics the game is for some reason built around. You don’t level up to have more fun, you level up to screw over the other person.
The reviews for Hyperbolica say it’s too short and not a full game, but I really enjoyed it.
I’ve been enjoying Suicide Squad. Very redundant but entertaining enough. I hate everything it stands for, but I guess the gameplay style is right up my alley.
The game feels like it is so close to being really good, but just a bit off. The gameplay and combat are great! The endgame content is just a bit too repetitive.
