Mortismal Gaming - Disappointing Games 2025

We could also mention the disappointing videos of 2025. 
I never quite understood the point of those "hall of shame" videos... except if that's just to produce another video—quantity is a quality of its own, apparently.

I've only tried Bloodlines 2 and NWN:EE on that list, and I can't say I was disappointed by either of them.
It's usually about one's expectations though, and I didn't have high expectations for either of those games. Otoh, I was disappointed by Dying Light: The Beast because my expectations were sky high.

The top reheated content reposter in YouTube is getting savvy, and has caught wind that negativity sells better in the internet than anything else, so I suppose that's the reason for the "Hall of Shame" video, because there's nothing wrong about making a random video out of the blue to name and shame some games/studios that already were judged when it was due and already faced the consequences for their game not being as great as they would have liked.
As we all know, a few likes from hate-watchers and a handful of extra dollars at the end of the month are more important than values or integrity.

Why didn't you like DL: The Beast? Is it better/worse than DL 2?
I wouldn't say I disliked it.. it just didn't grab me the way I was hoping for. Maybe I was just in the wrong mood at the time. I do plan on getting it again at some point. I don't think it's worth the full AAA price though considering it's only 20-25 hours according to what I've read.

The only game on his list I've played is AC: Shadows, which wasn't disappointing to me at all. I think it's quite good, actually.
Well I hated half of those games he talked about. So it's not all bullshit to me.
Seems we have similar tastes and once again I'm fine with that.

Yeah I liked Shadows too, it's probably my favorite AC since Odyssey, definitely better than Valhalla, but it being disappointing is his opinion, and that I do respect. My only issue is with trash content to get clicks from hate watchers, the one saving grace of Mortismal was that even if he is a bit of the YouTube Fextralife (ie just steal/repost content as if it was his without ever mentioning or crediting sources, a lot of the time information being incomplete or inaccurate since he is just sniping it and plugging it into this videos without context) at least he did cover some niche RPGs that thanks to him might have reached a bunch of extra people.
Seeing him turn to the easy hatewatch clickbait is just sad, but I wasn't his target audience to start with.
