Let’s hear about some games you maybe were told were not worth your time, or had bad reviews but you managed to love regardless.
I’ll go first. I’m not embarrased to admit that I played the shit out of Elder Scrolls Blades (the easily forgettable Skyrim-esque mobile game). I had to wait for it to release on Switch which had the benifit of the shitty timers being gone by then.
Once I started to think of it as a kind of advanced ‘Swords and Sandles’ type game I was hooked.
Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice. It was a short game that was more story than game so I was hesitant that I wouldn’t like it. I played through it in vr and it became my favourite game to date.
To anyone who wants to play it, whether it’s flatscreen or vr, you must have a good pair of headphones to fully appreciate it.
