Overcooked. I found it stressful and difficult if you had less than four people

i've got a love-hate relationship with Star Stable online i used to watch content of it for a really long time when i was younger but when i went to play it, it seemed like almost everything was locked behind paywall after paywall like i'd be galloping around on my horse and then i couldn't even go too far because i have to pay for that area. or pay for a membership to get the most basic features of the game. it was a huge bummer really the same thing is happening with Poptropica but at least i can access the islands via other means with that one

Anyways, Bowserโs Fury. The plot sucks and it only exists to get more people to buy Mario 3D World

I was going to say my answer but then I realised its not forum appropriate lol. but the second worst is Superman (the n64 one). I was surprised that it was worse than its reputation.

Need for Speed: Heat The handling of this game is absolute dogshit to try to maneuver, Even after sinking almost 8 hours into it one day it still felt impossible and it was still early on and I felt like I couldn't progress. I even switched between trying to use keyboard and controller or frankenstein both at once but the way turning or god forbid drifting worked was so asinine. The only reason I even tried to stubbornly stick with it is because once you buy it they have a no-refund policy. I regret this game more than anything. I miss Pro Street Racing and Need 4 Speed on the playstation 2. Sun Haven I went into this game just hoping for a better customizable and higher fantasy Stardew... and you *kinda* get that, to an extent. But the dialogue and romance options are some of the most genuinely terrible cringeworthy npcs imaginable. If you aren't either 12 years old like the dialogue sounds like it was written by or an incel/weeb/neet/all of the above desperate for every female characters personality to be boobs and no male characters of interest at all please pass. Like literally, go look at the Sun Haven wiki for a second and every female romance option is like, high-detailed and for some reason huge and perfectly circular boobs meanwhile the males have next to no detail, less personality, and are the most boring ever. This game has an audience and it isn't me. The only thing it really has going for it is like, the pixel art is really pretty and quite charming but. I refunded it. Digimon World Dawn and Dusk I had these games as a kid. I didn't know a damn thing about Digimon. That became the entire problem because they don't explain anything to you they assume you already know which actually makes it impossible to play or progress the story. At the time I played there also was no "go online and look it up" because that didn't really exist for anything except super popular games and that's ruined my view on digimon ever since. Maybe I should give it another go but idk. I just remember being like 13 and getting so frustrated I literally started crying lol.

Oh I got another one
Jump Force That Shonen jump game that kinda just threw every manga/anime character into a fighting game and said go ham? Yeah... I wanted so SO bad to love it but what passes for story is pretty tedious. Oh go here, fight this guy, recruit them. Over and over and OVER AND OVER every single mission for EVERYONE. I was so bored by the end I just wanted to finish the game and be done with it. It kinda hurts that they didn't put in the kind of effort that I think shonen fans deserved and would have paid for. A lot of people had good expectations especially given the trailers and were let down. They have already shut the online servers down too which means buying it at all is pretty pointless.
Besides that I think another of ny biggest faults with it is the lack of style direction. It seems like for some of the characters, like lesser known and older characters such as ones from City Hunter, Saint Seiya, Bleach, and some that were designed specifically for Jump Force itself all have a pretty uniform looking design as far as how they were modeled and shaded. Meanwhile the Naruto and Dragon Ball characters look like they were literally ripped from Ultimate Ninja and Xenoverse respectively and just slapped some new shaders on. They look SO out of place standing next to others and it goes beyond just their normal stylization from their respective universes. There's also no real/good animation for simple things like WALKING outside of combat as well as other animations during cutscenes clipping or sometimes just like standing there blankly during a critical moment where emotion should have been expressed. Its like the entire budget went to making things just look as flashy as possible they forgot to program the basics. (And also in doing so, made it lag like hell. And you don't want fighting games to lag because its crucial for getting in hits and not dying.)
My last complaint alao doesn't matter much since like I said, they already took down online play because by the end of it no one was playing it for reasons above, but there were a lot of characters who were just completely busted in online. Welcome to a lobby of nothing but Toshiro and Pegasus.

This one Barbie game where you have to rescue puppies. The game kept lagging and the NPCs will stand in one spot and not move. My player is forever stuck because an NPC will not move.

oh yeah another one thats less "so bad its horrible" and more "so bad its hilarious" is Two Worlds. I have to assume its what playing elder scrolls is like to people who hate elder scrolls. the voice acting alone is something else

The Sims 4.
Which is just a shameless cash grab by EA that splits up most activities which previously got included in bigger packs together in the Sims 3 (although that franchise entry also already dabbled in making unnecessary small add-ons such as those individual town things and various fashion brands bs) into multiple expansions (full price is 40 bucks each) that often feel like a cardhouse about to fall apart due to a lack of content (because things are exculded to include them later on at a seperate price instead), game packs (full price is 20 bucks each) that are mostly fun but often with not much replay value except for the level up stuff regarding vampires, werevolves and spellcasters (all of which are, of course, sold seperately), stuff packs (full price is 10 bucks each) that could've easily been included with either the expansion or game packs and finally, those ridiculous sets (full price is 5 bucks each)!
Still mad I wasted so much money on this game when it started coming out 9 years ago (began to only buy them at sales for half the price instead until I finally stopped doing even that this year). Granted, I was just a teen back then who needed some escape from the real world by throwing myself into a virtual one but still.
Without a doubt, an unworthy successor to the buggy but beautiful glory that was The Sims 3...

On a whim I went to go look at what the price of the sims 4 would be to actually buy everything and have a complete game and i'm not going to do the extra math for some of the sales and discounts that are currently on steam but the total would be $785.09 usd not including tax.
Literally what are they thinking there is not a SINGLE game on planet eath worth paying almost 800 dollars or more for lmfao??

Granted most of that was thanks to my mother (since I was still a teen back then and for the most part of this game coming out) but still. If you'll excuse me now, I'll be off to play The Sims 3 and seethe over my own gullibility (if that is even the right word for it) /hj.
