more great content for this list we’re
looking at those video games which bans
instantly despised for whatever reason
despite the game not having been

fatigue a poor trailer or basically
anything which could have made the
community upset it doesn’t matter if the
game eventually redeemed itself or
turned out to be really good we’re only
focusing on pre-release hate and
backlash hell plenty of waiting barn at

valve had a major hit on their hands
with 2008 left 4 dead as it was
basically the perfect game for anyone
who wanted to shoot zombies with their
buddies however a sequel was shown the
very next year at e3 and oh boy did fans
not like it
users agent of chaos and walking
underscore dead put a boycott in place
and a steam group was created to gain
support the group claims that the game’s
characters and visuals were not left for
steady enough and that the game would
take away attention from the original
basically shafting early adopters this
community basically dissolved once the
DLC was released for the original
claiming they had quote accomplished
everything number 9 Assassin’s Creed
syndicate a faithful children or you
could do better join me join the rooks
the Assassin’s Creed series was a bit of
a rollercoaster ride for a while back
there people were disappointed with the
third installment then they loved Black
Flag and then unity was released which
destroyed all the hopes and dreams of
the franchise basically after unities
abysmal showing franchise fatigue gets
finally set in for this once-great
series and syndicate came and went
without any of doozie album especially
considering it’s been there done that
setting of Victorian England London is
under the corrupt grip of the temperance
for you Street gangs to strike fear in
the working-class despite it recovering
rather well due to positive
word-of-mouth it had an extremely
disappointing launch as everyone was
simply done with the series and its
reiteration of old mechanics
full much more phrasing it number eight
DMC Devil May Cry my dears if there’s
one thing we learned from this
controversy it’s this don’t mess with
the beloved Japanese franchise in order
to reach a wider audience and boost
sales Capcom decided to reinvent Dante
and the series as a whole and fans were
less than thrilled as the result after
the launch trailer at Tokyo Game Show
mains immediately complained about
Dante’s mo appearance and revamped less
than favorable personality plus on top
of that damn cried outrage because Dante
doesn’t smoke in the end sold even worse
than Devil May Cry 4
number seven sonic boom rise of lyric I
have no idea what you’re talking about
but I’m pretty sure it’s a bad thing
as if the sonic fanbase wasn’t fractured
enough while Sonic fans absolutely love
to complain how the newest game isn’t
enough like Sonic Adventure or how this
new mechanic sucks
etc etc the response to sonic boom was
particularly scathing fans complained
about a myriad of issues including how
the graphics were basically lame how
crappy the camera angles were the cheesy
dialogue and how jagged and poor the
game came to run and all this was from
the trailers alone if that wasn’t enough
though the game was not given to critics
which is never a good sign turns out it
really wasn’t number 6 Mass Effect
Andromeda Alec is dead oh how the mighty
have fallen the Mass Effect series was
once an industry giant but Andromeda
just didn’t live up to the hype while
some fans remained cautiously optimistic
for Andromeda their hopes were pretty
much crushed and all over some silly
facial animations once the first
impressions of the game began wheeling
in fans immediately pounced on the
ridiculous facial animations creating
memes and videos poking fun at the
ugliness of the models the cat has been
quiet for too long
while the combat was fast-paced and
interesting the story and narrative
choices you know the series main draw
felt unfinished and lacked any sort of
death sorry my face is tired from
dealing with everything number five The
Legend of Zelda the Wind Waker it seems
odd to criticize an entry and when it’s
arguably the greatest video game series
of all time based purely on first
impressions but gamers were certainly
skeptical after the Wind Waker was
revealed complaints immediately poured
in regarding the game’s aesthetics and
cell shades design as many people called
it childish looking fearing that the
game would be too kid-friendly of course
what helps fuel this backlash was the
fact that a year before at space world
Nintendo had shown off a tech demo with
a far more mature looking version of The
Legend of Zelda to help promote the
GameCube eventually Wind Waker did
release to widespread critical acclaim
so for some fans it did take some
getting used to
number four Metal Gear survived
okay seriously though whose idea was it
to turn metal gear into a zombie shooter
this game follows the events of round
zeroes wherein mother base and a MIDI
textile voltea are sucked into a
wormhole and find themselves on a land
full of crystal zombie things well
suffice to say the fans immediately
created this idea as they saw zombies as
a huge insult to the respected series
while others saw it as a simple cash
grabs to profit on the totally diatom B
craze so is anyone I’m looking forward
to death stranding
number three mighty number 9 short –
long – jump – viral slide there’s
probably a – that makes you breakfast
I don’t know great I can’t wait what
after making truckloads of money through
Kickstarter with the promise of a
beautiful spiritual successor to the
Mega Man series Vans expectations began
to wane when the game was delayed over
and over again and then the infamous
masterclass trailer was released and the
rest is history
and make those bad guys cry like an
anime fan on prom night many people felt
that the trailer not only missed its
mark by taking the four totally wacky
fellow kids approach but some also felt
that the jokes were flat-out
disrespectful and the game kinda looked
like crap with the constant delays
disappointing looking gameplay and this
stupid trailer fan expectations
plummeted and they stayed there with an
after release check out this montage
number two Metroid Prime Federation
force how to completely lose the trust
of your fan base in three-two-one
during e3 2015 eight plong years after
the release of the last metroid prime
game the trailer for federation force
was revealed rather than a new
first-person adventure with Samus fans
were instead treated to a spin-off game
with cartoonish character designs and
made your total shift the trailer was
immediately bombarded with dislikes on
YouTube and a petition was even created
to cancel the game but with the
announcement of Metroid Prime for at e3
2017 it seems like Nintendo her fans
loud and clear number one Call of Duty
infinite warfare you got eyes on this
trance harmony we can picture the
boardroom meeting for this one going
something like okay I got Call of Duty
is in space genius fans were immediately
disgusted with the reveal trailer mainly
citing the game’s ridiculous sci-fi
settings the video currently stands at
over 3.5 million dislikes on YouTube
other factors also went into this
pre-release hate including the fact that
a remastered Modern Warfare would be
packaged with the game and wouldn’t be
sold separately the game itself
basically turned out to be your standard
Call of Duty game but there was nothing
standard about the hate storm that
preceded its release how could they not
have seen
