Which video games from the last 5 years do you expect to age poorly? (hexbear.net)

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?

I feel like the walking sim aging poorly moment is rolling. Once any of em gets enough years to have a person check it out again it’s suddenly aged poorly.

I’d be interested to see one that has aged well outside of that “janky but possessed of grim foresight” way that a lot of old stuff has.

i have no idea what you mean. it's literally the same people who wouldn't have liked them on release. Gone Home is still good. Tacoma is still good. Proteus is still good. The Beginner's Guide is still good. Firewatch is incredible. Probably the worst one that was critically acclaimed on release is Dear Esther, but that always had a hack premise. Find me a single person who will say "yeah I used to be really into games about going places and looking at things but I'm not any more."
