Numen: Contest of Heroes is a game that sits at about 50% recommended on steam. I beat it years ago and really enjoyed myself, but I knew it was a unique fit for me. I only say “bad” so that we have common ground, but I value that experience.

What are “bad” games you enjoy?

    Speaking of FO4, my biggest gripe is just the loss of durability of everything, but power armor. That, and power armor becoming something anyone is able to wear and is all over, removing any speciality to it, IMO.

    It’s kinda unfair to compare FO4 to FONV, IMO, but it’s still a decent game on its own.

      FO4: Welcome to Fallout! Here’s your nuclear war, here’s your vault, here’s your wasteland, here’s your wacky robots, here’s your dog, here’s your Good Guy Faction, here’s your power armor, here’s your first Deathclaw, now either go find your son or fuck off.

      It really tried to cram the entire setting into a playable E3 demo, made most builds nonviable, not to mention how half-baked the modding system and settlement construction tools are.

        Forgot how if you follow the main story in the beginning you face a deathclaw early. Forgot how they scale most every enemy down to your level. Yeah, not a big fan of that for deathclaws since they are supposed to be terrifying and strong.

        I’d say the modding system is okay and dies it’s job well enough, but the settlement system? Oh boy, is that just an underwhelming thing. It’s a cool concept, but it’s done in a boring manner.

      New Vegas will always be superior to Fallout 4 in everything but graphics.

      Fallout 4 is a great looter shooter. But its an absolute ass awful fallout game… Like they bought someone elses half finished shooter, and threw super mutants and a fucking horrible RPG system into it awful.

        in everything but graphics.

        And stability. I’ve recently replayed the main Fallout games and the crashing and bugs in the vanilla New Vegas experience is inexcusable.

          Cant help you, it was indefensibly buggy on launch, but its long since been fixed and been shockingly stable for me, even when modded out the ass.

          I genuinely can not remember the last crash I had.
