Fortnite
Turok Evolution on GameCube.
It doesn’t look that bad on reviews, but it’s pretty awful.
Lula 3D. Though, I never played with it eventually as it froze up the computer so bad we had to pull the plug, the experience as a kid was probably my worst gaming moment.
'Home improvement' on the Super Nintendo
Hydlide, probably. A deeply mediocre action RPG that came out on NES waaay after everyone else had one-upped it, or ten-upped it.
And I played it circa 1997.
No, hang on - I at least progressed in Hydlide. To this day I have no goddamn idea how to get out of the first room in Batman Forever. I had the Game Boy version. I did not buy this game. Some kid just gave it to me, which should have been a warning. As I understand it, all versions of the game are quite similar, which would be admirable if they were not, to a one, total dogshit. I think it's the Mortal Kombat engine used as a platformer... made by aliens.
Myst.
I came for the graphics and because I liked adventuers. Was disappointed by the static graphics and I didn't understand what to do at all.
Myst is certainly a bit of an odd one. There are more modern versions with full 3d graphics, and some of the puzzles are all time classics, but Riven was always the better game. There's a remake of that one which just came out, though it also doesn't hold your hand as far as figuring out what to do.
Recently... Deadlock
Aw yeah bring on the downvotes
Tales of Arise. The most bland plain characters ever, uninteresting exploration, plot was SO predictable, and the combat felt stiff. Kinda wrote off the entire series mostly, except I do like Berseria even though it's combat also sucks.
