Overall I feel successful in my game shopping, made a lot of returns as well. But I do regret getting a couple games (even on sale) I grabbed wasteland 2 because I felt nostalgic for the old fallout games, but it felt unfinished.

The other game that had positive reviews was project zomboid, which is clunky to play, and while it might be progressing in its development, feels slow, like I should check back on it ina year or so. I'm considering grabbing Vein as a replacement.

Anyone else feel like a game or hardware was disappointing?

I was disappointed to find that Red Dead Redemption 2 is just a linear series of cutscenes without any real player agency - more graphic novel than game. I thought it was going to be Skyrim with guns when I bought it. Its the last game I'll buy without demoing/pirating first.

    This being one of the games that turned me off AAA single player narrative action adventure games. They're pretty much TV shows but not as good as TV shows yet take way longer than TV shows to develop so why play these games
