I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this—what's one game that you think is super overrated? You know, the kind everyone talks about, but when you played it, you just didn't get the hype. What game didn't live up to the buzz for you?
What's the most overrated game in your opinion?

Persona 5 felt like it just regurgitated all the worst anime tropes.
That's honestly part of it's appeal but it's definitely divisive
I've accepted I'm just not the demographic
Fair enough and I guess more power to you for not slogging through something you don't like! I tend to succumb to the sunk cost fallacy and force myself to finish.
I've tried to play Skyrim 10 times and couldn't make it past 5 hours
Sounds like you never got out of the tutorial
That's probably true but also, why is a tutorial section 10 hours?!
It's not really but there's just so much to learn to really get going!
Might have to give it one more go...
Portal. I finally went to try and play it after seeing all the praise and memes about it for years. The humor didn't do it for me and I spent the whole time just hoping it would end.
I applaud the opinion! This is a really hot take! It was groundbreaking puzzle game that defined a whole generation of gamers. It's also been far enough out that it might be suffering from the "Seinfeld is unfunny" where it was so overexposed that now it's boring.
That could certainly be it but at the same time, it's just not my vibe. It was a tad too cringy for me and self important.
Bit of an older one but Final Fantasy 7 was an absolute bore for me. Swore it off immediately.
I have honestly never gotten the hype around battle royale games like Fortnite. They're just a snooze fest for me.
