Unlike 2019, the year 2017 and 2018 had a pretty disappointing start for video games. Luckily, God of War, Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey<\/a> and Red Dead Redemption 2<\/a> made it look way better. Games are usually a source of entertainment and a chance to relax and blow off steam for many and most of the time it is the case every time a game is released, but sometimes this does not always go according to the plans and you find yourself buying a game which promised a lot and eventually fails to keep them up.<\/p>\n

Here is the list of disappointing games of 2018<\/h2>\n

Fallout 76<\/h3>\n

This post-apocalyptic franchise saw the greatest fall with the release of Fallout 76. This game wasn’t just bad, to begin with, it was absolutely broken and the developers switched to an online mode while the rest of the series focused on a single player which was appreciated.<\/p>\n

The game fundamentally felt incomplete, the NPC characters were replaced with audio notes and robots which saw this void develop in the game that the developers never addressed. Moreover, for an online game, the servers were not efficient enough to handle the load of players which saw plenty of crashes and soon after the majority of players left the game for something better.<\/p>\n

Bethesda claimed to support Fallout 76 but things kept going downhill for them as new issues arose before the previous one was fixed and with the majority of players turning their backs on the franchise, a revival of Fallout 76 seems highly unlikely.<\/p>\n

Sea of Thieves<\/h3>\n

Sony has the upper hand when it comes to the exclusive game for their titles and while Xbox seemed desperate to offer their fans something other than the Halo series. In comes Sea of Thieves developed by Rare which got fans excited as they promised the adventures of being a pirate and everything that the world had to offer.<\/p>\n

But soon enough after countless battles and going from one place to the other in ships players found the game to be hollow, the battle mechanics seemed pretty outdated and did not offer any combos. Players got a gun and a sword and this restriction soon got old with a lot of players who abandoned ship.<\/p>\n

Though the developers have tried to rectify this with constant updates and have promised to include new content. The launch was pretty disastrous for Sea of Thieves.<\/p>\n
