| What was the last game you dropped/stopped playing completely, and what about it made you decide to call it quits? I can't remember exactly what my last dropped game was. I technically dropped the remastered version of Gears of War on the Xbox One, story-wise anyway, but I'd already completed it in the original version. I remember dropping Devil May Cry 3 back in March or April as well, after playing through the first two games. I just simply didn't find it very fun, more along the lines of irritating, and not to mention they changed Dante's character into a capital-A asshole in that game. |
 |
| FFXIV: A Realm Reborn Reason: I am currently too busy to invest in an MMO right now. |
| The last game I dropped was Valkyrie Chronicles 1 on PS3. The load times, no save feature mid battle, etc made it an extremely painful experience. I remember spending an hour on a course. Nearly completing it. Fucking up just once in the smallest way and getting completely blown up for it. The steam version is much better, but I have yet to purchase it. |

| I usually don't drop games because I want to get my monies worth. I've only dropped two games ever. Zelda 2, because it's fucking boring Punch Out, because I couldn't beat Mike Tyson. |

Ditto for the most part, but there are just some games that simply aren't enjoyable enough to continue playing, or sometimes I'll rage quit if I can't get past a certain area or I was an idiot and saved the game at a point that screwed me over or something. I may or may not go back to those latter games eventually. |

| The Witcher 2. Great graphics, great story, great voice actors but I couldn't stand the combat. All I ever did was roll around. I also dropped the first game too because I had to read some book to cut some plants. |
| Demon Souls I don't understand the hype. The game is fine, the pacing is fine, combat was more than fine (quite interesting). The control lag is not fine. |
 |
| I'll be dropping SWTOR soon... it's so fucking boring and tedious to play through.... |
| Tfw devil may cry 3 is the best one |
| huh |
Dexthepleb said: Tfw devil may cry 3 is the best one The gameplay in the first two felt incredibly simple compared to 3, I'll give it that. It still didn't feel like a major improvement though, and there were just too many things that pissed me off, even though I'm usually pretty tolerant, everything in that game just tested my patience to the maximum capacity. |

Dexthepleb said: Tfw devil may cry 3 is the best one DMC3>DMC4>DMC1>DMC2 Wait DMC4 might be better than 3 since they've released a special edition version which allows you to play as Trish, Lady and Virgil. But of course, Bayonetta reigns over all of them. Voidling said: I'll be dropping SWTOR soon... it's so fucking boring and tedious to play through.... Is that the one made by Bioware? I dropped that one. It's Pay 2 Play in disguise. + |
| @OP What gripes did you have with DMC3? I thought Dante was awesome and the best one out of any DMC game (I didn't like him in DMC 4, his lines were extremely cringeworthy in DMC1 and he was alright in DmC). Most of the bosses weren't that great and some of them are repetitive which is my main and only gripe with the game but Vergil redeemed them all. I remember being on the brink of tears in the ending cutscene with Dante and Lady when I was younger. Dexthepleb said: Tfw devil may cry 3 is the best one But it is. The gameplay is soooooooo much better and the story is a masterpiece for DMC standards. Basically it's DMC 3>DMC1>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>DmC>DMC4>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>DMC2 Edit: Oh shit, I misinterpreted your comment. Sorry m8 :( J3tstream said: Is that the one made by Bioware?

| Deus Ex HR.. for the second time. every time i watch that cinematic trailer i get excited, but when i play it its a huge letdown |
| I just put things indefinitely on-hold, I'll never complete drop something unless I actually sell the game. So last game I quit was Kingdom Hearts, I just don't like the gameplay at all, didn't help I really couldn't care less about any of the characters. |

Dante just came across as a major dick in that game with all the cringe-worthy one-liners and his bare chestedness. The gameplay was indeed very repetitive, which was my main gripe, and some of the bosses seemed to have health bars that were set a tad too high. The storyline was a bit more interesting than the predecessors, but it was backed up by some rather annoying antagonists, such as that jester character. |

I haven't touched the game in over a year because I never used the triangle button. Fml. I should really pay more attention. Thanks. jc9622 said: Secondly, that's the whole point. You need to be smart at where you place your troops and tanks. You can't just go guns blazing. Same shit happens to me when I fuck up. Well, I certainly didn't go guns blazing. I was very careful. If I had saved back then it wouldn't have cause me such headache. I'm glad I know now. Now I can actually finish it without worry. |
"Be the change you wish to see in the world." |
| Knights of the Old Republic II. The combat sucked. RPG combat in general sucks. |

| Kid Icarus Uprising. I kinda got tired of playing it |
| The last boss thing is deus ex was just stupid and frustrating so i couldn't be bothered to finish it. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
AsianRambo38 said: I actually dropped Dishonored. I just wasn't feeling it. Same. I liked the atmosphere, but I wasn't feeling the story. |
| I'm also someone that puts games on-hold indefinitely until I decide to pick them up again. Though, I haven't been in much of a gaming mood lately, so I end up losing interest in just about anything I try to play. Not having access to a console doesn't help. The most recent game I stopped playing was Persona Q, but I'd like to finish that sometime. |

I managed to finish it but didnt have a great time tbh. Shoryuuken said: The evil wuithin, great game, atmospheric.. but got stuck and it seems near impossible to beat I finished that game like a month ago. Yea its stupid hard in some sections. I ended the game with 99 deaths so I can see why you would you drop it. Where did you get stuck btw? Anyway, last game I dropped was some time ago: Remember me. What a bore fest. Full of bugs and glitches too. I actually stop playing when after a stupid locked room sequence ( where they throw at you a bunch of frustrating and reused enemies) the game didnt open the door. And this is after I died in the same sequence before. So you can imagine my frustration. Mediocre game. |

| Hunted: The Demons Forge. Was so bland... |
 |
| Lords of fallen it's hard as fuck in a non fun way . i keep dying over and over. |
 |
| Shadow Warrior Classic Redux. It's just so.... bloody generic, one would think the creators of Duke Nukem 3D would pull something good using the same engine they used to delop the game but no, it just feels like a mod. |
 |
| MGS 5 Phantom Pain. Very boring and no variety between missions. The game is worse than any other mgs on every level. |
 |
AllenVonStein said: Lords of fallen it's hard as fuck in a non fun way . i keep dying over and over. Ditto, I dropped that just less than half way through I think. Just felt like a very poor Souls rip-off. Not to mention all the glitches, and the bosses that took 30 minutes to die, but didn't really have much variety during the fights, so you just attacked and dodged/blocked over and over again in the exact same pattern until it was dead. |

| Shadow of Mordor..... I'm a big LOTR fan , however I just didn't feel it.... |
| Witcher 3. From my Computer's desk. It didn't get damaged though. |

| I just dropped Valkyria Chronicles 2 and Star Wars Battlefront Rogue Squadron because I had to make room on my PS Vita for Borderlands 2, it was only $10!! $10 for all the DLCs and everything!! Anyways I really liked both but on VC2 I stopped like a year ago and forgot to come back so I forgot everything about the story and Battlefront I bought out of impulse because of the hype for the PS4 version. |

ToastofJustice said: I don't give a shit. Pseudo-difficulty of any form is unacceptable. It almost screams laziness: "we couldn't find a way to make this game difficult so we'll put button lag on everything you do." I don't intend to find out why people hold this game in high regard, since I already tried that with Monster Hunter and couldn't see the reason.The control lag is just a perk that makes it harder. |
|
| The button lag didn't make the game artificially difficult or whatever. Like all control schemes or game/technical mechanics, it's something the player gets used to eventually. Not that it was ever a problem imo. You just got to time hits well. Not that I'm trying to belittle your ability or anything like that, I just don't see it as a flaw or anything that I felt screwed me out of winning. |

insan3Inquisitor said: Well the game wasn't super high speed or anything, so the lag wasn't extremely in the way, but it was still enough to make me frustrated. I already spent about 700 hours on Monster Hunter 3 and 4, where most of those hours were frustrating, so I didn't feel like dealing with a game that made it that much more annoying to play. For what reason would you ever put lag on a control? It makes no sense.The button lag didn't make the game artificially difficult or whatever.
