Some games from the past play a lot worse in hindsight than others. What recent, decently-liked video games do you expect to suffer this curse?

Does anyone even remember the hype around Diablo 4? That was barely 7 months ago lol

I didn’t even realize it was being made at all and that there was an entire ad campaign for it until I went to KFC one day (which is rare) and saw it. Was pretty mind blown because I remembered when Diablo 3 came out. Haven’t played it tho lmfao.

Diablo isn't in the Diablo game. That's for the expansion pass.

I played 3 with some buddies on couch co-op and its the only reason it was any fun at all. Never even considered playing 4.

Blizzard had it's peak pre-crap division merger IMO.

They took the worst parts of Diablo 3 and decided to maximize the amount of MTX.

They can't even allow you to purchase more stash/inventory space because they programmed it so that every player loads every other players entire inventory and stash as soon as they load into the same area.

I understand I'm in the minority who just wanted a modern version of Diablo 2's mechanics but Diablo 4 is really bland once you beat the story

It crashed and burned after the first patch.
