Biggest Fails in The Video Game Industry of 2018

Postby ElectriKong » Sun Jan 06, 2019 8:56 am

What do you feel are the biggest fails for the game industry in 2018?

Here are some of mine (will probably expand the list and go into more detail later):
  • Fallout 76
  • Diablo Immortal reveal
  • Nintendo Switch Online
  • Blizzard censoring users on Twitch
  • PS1 Classic
  • Soulja Boy's game consoles
  • The mainstream media's/governments' ways of trying to make video games look bad

Not video game related, but still, I'll count it as a fail

Yeah, in 2014 they winned the world cup, and now they just couldn't get over the groups phase... And still I can't believe that they got defeated by South Korea...

Me neither... Maybe for less activity than in the previous years?

Also I think this topic should be moved to Sandbox because we are not mentioning almost anything about video games

Oh ok, I didn't read it correctly. I dunno, what's with the PS1 classic? I don't really know much about it.

Mediocre games, used open source emulator. Basically rushed so that it was out for the holidays.
