Early Access. It signals that the game's going to be in development hell or become abandonware but at least you get to play it while waiting for a better version that will never come.
>>
>>730570273
occasionally a game gets out of early access.

Onirism(listen it's /v/, had to mention it)
World of Horror
PsiloSybil
Hades
Hades 2
Baldur's Gate 3(yes it was early access for a few years before its actual launch)
FAITH: The Unholy Trinity
Viscerafest

just to name a few. ULTRAKILL is also getting steady progress done.

Selling dlc before the game is finished is the reddest a flag can get.
>>
>>730569057
BR and/or extraction elements. Literally every single bit of interest I had in the new Marathon from its reveal trailer evaporated the moment I heard that it was a goddamn extraction shooter.
>>
>>730569057
Capeshit and/or movieslop
Sportsball
Gacha
Microtransactions
>>
>>730569057
Main character talks outside of cutscenes.
bigger flag if they NEVER did it before in the series (halo, ratchet and clank)

>Indians involved at any level, except for games actually made in india those are okay
>Moba (cringe)
>Third person lockon action game (if it was really super hard why do it have lockon training wheels nigger)
>Larian anything, they've always made front loaded scam games that play like cellphone titles
>Female MC with obviously male proportions
>300 million marketing budget, 3 million studio budget
>Anything Bethesda made or will make after skyrim
I don't actually give a fuck about microtansactions its a predditor discord groomer complaint. They're just jealous someone is exploiting their victims besides them. I've yet to play a game where you actually have to buy anything to enjoy it, its always a retard trap.

Open world is as close as you can get to an outright admission that the game does not have any compelling content outside of Warioware minigames, but still needs to pretend that it didn't waste 4+ years of development time on nothing.
The definition of overpromising and underdelivering, there are no good open world games only games that have been facetiously mistaken for open world.
Almost all of the "work" that goes into the "big impressive" part of an open world game is the kind of thing that can be thrown together at the last minute.

>User-agreement

>Game requires you to make a account to the publisher website, verify said account with a code so please add your email and phone number

>Must be online at all times even though your playing the single player campaign and have no desire to play multiplayer

>Microtransactions popping out of the woodwork whenever you load up the game and keeps reminding you about that MEGA ELITE SUPPORT PREMIUM PACKAGE where all your guns get gold skin and you also get some ugly ass skins and a gold star next to your account so everyone knows you brought the for $100 and your still shit in the multiplayer

Soulless simplified UI design, it shows without fail that a game is not worth playing.
