>>726027596Starfield
>>726027596starfield. first and last bethesda game i ever boughti got a little too high on the weekend it came out and thought it would befun
The only games I've bought at launch:Fallout 4No mans skyStarfieldCyberpunk 2077Stalker 2TarkovAll had rough launches. Someday I'll learn.
Borderlands 2. I don't think I've bought any AAA games since, especially not on release, besides maybe Zelda. There's probably something, but I can't think of it now.

>>726027596Modern warfare 2.Maybe other m.
>>726027596Fallout: Trans Vegas. What an empty piece of tranny shit that game was.
>>726027596I have no regrets.
>>726027596Helldivers 2
In 2023 I bought Street Fighter 6 at full price on launch because "this is finally the year I'll get into fighting games, it's gonna be so kino" and I played it for 8 hours. Later that year I bought Starfield at launch In my limited retard defence, I thought mods would eventually save it and we'd just have skyrim but in space. I didn't know it would be so bad that no one wanted anything to do with it at all
>>726027754My man actually bought the giraffe blowjob game.
Regrets are pointless so I don't have any
>>726027596noneI control the games I buy
>>726027596Company of Heroes 2
Buy?
Any Street Fighter, any Tekken, any Call of Duty. Shit that my friends keep roping me into but are actual fucking garbage.
Very easily Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. I wanted a refund after that ending.
>>726027596Diablo 3I pre-ordered that which taught me that pre orders are a scam
>>726031513>after that endingso you played through the whole game and then decide, yeah i dont like this i deserve a refund
Helldivers 2, mostly because it was the first game I bought in years. Had a fun first few hours figuring stuff out but then the flaws rapidly appeared and I had apparently already seen everything the game had to offer except for the big "unkillable" hive lord
>>726027596"Recently"? Kill LA Kill IF. Not a bad game, but ULTRA light on content.Worst regret of all time? This. Bought it over a Strider+Strider2 combo. I never forgave myself for it.
>>726027596Cyberpunk on release, caved to the FOMO and preordered like an hour before it came out. Never been so disappointed by a game in my life. To this day I haven't gone back to it
>>726031934you should probably have sex because that's a fucking playstation 1 game and it's 2025 and no one else knows what strider or dinomaster is
>>726031175This
>>726027596bloodbornedropped it after 1/3so mad at myself for falling for a /v/ meme
>>726028014I had a feeling Tekken 8 was going to be bad, what's so off about it?>captcha TTTKD
>>726032071Why did you reply to yourself
Recently only civ 7, pre-ordered it even. Idk how it could end up so damn bad, played it for over 2h too just hoping I'd get into it. Loads of hours (esp multiplayer) in 5 and 6. I doubt I'd even revisit 7 with updates, still mad.
>>726032030OP asked what game we regretted buying, but didn't give a timeframe. I regretted it 25 years ago
>>726027596Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.
Planet Coaster 2.I wish it had just been an expansion.
>>726032109im a shitter and cant get out of blue ranks
>>726027984This
Recently, Battlefield 6. I like the game but there's other stuff on my mind. Been really enjoying arc raiders for some reason I bought BLOPs 6 for some reason and immediately got bored with itDying light 2 was terrible on release, i also bought battlefield 2042 for some dumbass reason
I waited over a decade for an obviously rushed and unfinished game. The first half was solid in the human lands, actual engaging political intrigue, introduction to mechanics and quest chains, then it all falls apart the second you reach the beast lands into miserable shit with rushed storylines that wrap up terribly. The "postgame" was also fucking awful with barely any reason to engage with it I kinda blame capcom for this since they've been fucking it up recently with dogshit oversight from the suits in charge for monster hunter wilds
Forza Horizon 5. I LOVED 4 and played so much, but 5 was a massive disappointment.
>>726031708The rest of the game was mostly okay but the ending was bad enough to make me hate the game as a whole
Towns
>>726027596guild wars 2street fighter 6
How about games that everyone else regretted buying but that you really enjoyed? Yeah I know it could and should have been better instead of a sidegrade, I just dont care. I had fun in this fantasy world with objectively much better graphics than dark arisen
>>726027596Midnight Suns. I only paid like $15 but god damn that game is so boring to me. You'd think a game with Marvel characters would be somewhat playable
>>726032301>the endingget the fuck over it. movies are the same. great and then the ending sucks.act like an adult.
>>726032150Why haven't you dilated yet?
>>726032109Lots of things. Everyone has homing tracking moves and stances now, sometimes multiple, backdashing is nerfed, poking is nerfed, sidestepping is technically better but due to all the homing moves its actually worse, chip damage, heat dash that homogenizes every combo, heat burst which is a second super move while also still having rage drive..probably some more but that's off the top.Also personally I hate that they sell a bunch of characters that were in the previous games as DLC, but fighting game fans already accepted this terrible awful practice a long time ago
>>726032289>I waited over a decade for an obviously rushed and unfinished game.Fucking this. Loved the first game, was really hyped for the sequel. Then Capcom released it and the performance of that game alone made me regret everything even after Capcom's "optimization" updates.
>>726032520Uh oh melty
>>726027596>specifically a gameStarbound>anything game-relatedI bought a PS4 in 2015 because I was too lazy to upgrade my PC. Ended up upgrading about 2 years later
>>726027596I had finished Cold Steel 1 the week before buying it and just assumed it would be like it, but set in modern day. This shit is so boring to play through, and I paid full price!
WoW Shadowlands
>>726032296qrd?
>>726027596No Man's Sky. I bought it at full price and played it for 5 hours.
>>726032004based, stick to your guns it's still sh

>>726032917Mexico is a very boring country
>>726027596$250 Tarkov..........
>>726032828this game is so comfyyou just had the wrong mindset
>>726027596Either Fallout 3 or Witcher 3
Diablo 4
>>726033086wtf. what didnt you like about these games?
>>726033167Witcher 3 is boring as shit, and while Fallout 3 isn't as boring, it's just shit.
duke nukem forever
>>726033254>Witcher 3 is boring as shitnot enough explosions and neon lights for you?
>>726032289Same here, got so bored I couldn't be bothered to keep going and haven't reinstalled DD2 sinceNot what I had expected
>>726032087dumbass
>>726027596I bought FIFA 13 because my IRL friends at the time said it would be great if we did and it was 50% off. Paid £25 for about 30 minutes worth of playtime, and never played it again. I didn’t even like football but I was suckered into buying to play together. Fuck FIFA.Other than that, I can’t really remember full games, but I spent an inappropriate amount of money on SMITE when that was more popular, buying Tier 5 skins for characters I didn’t play and plenty of gems to continue the cycle.
>>726033041Some of the formulas I liked CS for are there, but it just isn't hooking me. I still have to play the damn thing, so I don't feel cheated.
>>726027596I can only take it in the context of how much money I had at the time. So how much the money was worth to me. Today I can buy multiple 100€ games and not be financially impacted so it really doesn't apply. I was a broke ass Serbian student and I literally didn't eat meals to buy Sim City 2013. I tried desperately to get into the Beta, they had it over some Nvidia crap. They had beta keys being handed away on streams and shit too. I zealously watched it all. Then I got the game and it was so fucking terrible I don't think I managed to put 50 hours in. The first week the servers didn't work, later there was a billion bugs and the game simply had nothing going for it. The cities were TINY.
>>726027596years of world of warcraft expansions and subscriptions
RE6Too late to refund because I kept giving it second chances, because I couldn't believe how bad it was.More recently: Battlefield 6What a fucking vision-less piece of shit.Hey devs: your game FUCKING SUCKS SMEGMA DICK when your menu settings for controls need fucking tutorials. Can't be assed with that shit. Bunch of incompetent assholes.
>>726033507The multiplayer was the only good thing about it, trying to build up crime cities to fuck over your friends was kino.
>>726033141What possessed you to buy Diablo IV? It’s on gamepass>>726032153What part of the build up to Civ 7 even looked good? How did you get convinced?
>>726027596Monster Hunter Wilds
>>726033635>What possessed you to buy Diablo IV? It’s on gamepassnta but that didn't happen until about a year after release. Also, subscribing to rent games? lol
If you know, you know.
>>726027596Monster Hunter Wild. The only game I regret buying.
>>726033635>What possessed you to buy Diablo IV?I enjoyed the open beta and felt a bit of fomo. It was at launch so there weren't any cheaper alternatives at the time.by the time it came on gamepass I already felt buyers remorse.
I bought this at full-price back in the day and it was total fucking garbage.
>>726033748Splash Damage's opportunity to shine and they fucked it.Everyone wanted to like that game. Personally I refunded it - and it was physical to boot. Rare for me to do that. In hindsight, maybe shouldn't have, but I felt angered towards it at the time.
the game that came with an in-game DLC salesman
Recently? Monster Hunter RiseBefore that it was bayonetta 3
>>726027596Skyward SwordBloodborneXenoblade 3
Civilization: Beyond EarthAnd I didn't buy it, it was gifted to me, but I still regret it
>>726027596ER Nightreign
>>726027596Diablo 4. Got it and the expansion for cheap during the sale and i still feel like an idiot
I backed Indivisible
>>726033918why
Backing Numenera.Didn't even bother downloading it after seeing the RPGCodex review.
>>726027596pathologic faming simulator 2015besiegestarbound
>>726028426ewww wtf it smells like curry and ass in here... viyansenyur is that you????
>>726027596Xenoblade Chronicles.God that game was shit.
Risen. Even though I paid pennies for it on sale, the gameplay was less than what I expected.
Dark Souls 2
>>726027596Dark souls 1 and Elden Ring I liked demons souls before the internet blew up about fromsoft, so I got dark on releaseDogshit game with none of the charm that demons had, and the marketing was super cringe Skipped dark 2 and 3, though I did get and enjoy bloodborne Same situation with Elden though Horrible games
>>726027596All the ones that I've never played or even bothered installing
reused assets bullshit plot
>>726027596mh wilds deluxe edition
>>726027596CSGO. Went f2p not long after. Retards bend over backwards to rail against anyone who doesn't like that scummy decision. Even spent $10 on something I don't remember. Oh! Also the entire Gunvolt franchise. They'll just keep re-releasing new Ultimate and Definitive editions, invalidating your current one. I already had every single game in my library, no exceptions. Monolith's Blood as well. Re-released TWICE. The only people who don't fuck you over like that are Id. Even remasters of Quake are free for those who own the original, no time-limited microscopic discount bullshit. There's an exception in Quake Live, where you were expected to get the Steam version within a timeframe, even if it was f2p. The vote-kick abuse in that game would leave you taking breaks often.
>>726031559Diablo 3 was really disappointing for me in terms of story, lore, and aesthetics, but I thought it was quite fun. A very different game from D1 and 2, but it was still easy for me to appreciate. Diablo 4 is my most regretted game purchase. Superficially the aesthetics are a return to older Diablo, and they were well-done. Overall, I thought the beta was promising, even though it felt really short compared to the D3 beta, so I decided to purchase the game despite my misgivings with Blizzard. Fucking terrible game. There's some interesting grimdark bits, but the main story is dripping the worst of disney-fied, DEI-laden, braindead Blizzard writing, and you're forced so sit through and be a participant in the terrible narrative. The gameplay itself isn't engaging enough to make up for it and didn't seem like it would even get better. Additionally, your camera is annoyingly zoomed in the whole time so that your paid cosmetics are more visible. This game really did not get enough hate. People were too kind because a few sidelined writers and artists did actually manage to insert some good ideas in the game, but it really was not nearly enough to make the game enjoyable.
>>726027596A couple months ago I spent $60 on a mobile idle game for a batch of the in-game premium currency, and decided like 3 days later that I just wasn't having fun and dropped it without using any of it.
What a steaming pile of shit.Even worse I tried to gaslight myself into liking it for too long and busted the Steam return window.
>>726037825yu yu hakusho is cool, I thought it would be a good game.
>>726027596>What game do you regret buying the most?Clair Obscur. The parry mechanic ruins my enjoyment
I bought Mass Effect Andromeda at full retail price at launch
>>726041929I got it for free thanks to Uncle Timmy and still felt ripped off
>>726027596pokemon puzzle league
>>726027596LAD: Infinite Wealth at full price. a mediocre game with increased AAA game pricing for a series that's always lived on shoestring budgets. straight up killed my interest in the yakuza series as well as making me cynical of of the prospect of purchasing modern games in general. xenoblade 3 and ai:ni are dishonorable mentionsi don't generally get buyers remorse from games even if i had some heavy criticisms of them, but those 3 games are special in how much they either bored or frustrated me with not enough positives to make up for them
I want to kms everytime I see this shit in my library
>>726040453but demons is also dogshit
I bought borderlands 3 for full price on epic
