~~Borderlands 3. The writing just murders it, and the combat doesn't carry it for me. 1, 2, TPS, Wonderlands all have better stories, so I enjoy them more.~~
~~EDIT: aw, shit, you said favorite franchise... hm... Dragon Age: Origins then? I enjoyed DA2/DAI way more, because of the story/quests.~~
EDIT 2: you know what, Half-Life: Alyx. I actively hated that game despite playing it in best possible conditions. It's cumbersome, slow, and too much "survival-horror" instead of an FPS.
oh really? i though people really enjoyed alyx
most people do. i loved it. but OP said he doesnt like survival horror and i do.
Kinda weird because it doesn't even have any survival aspects. I love HL:A.
I'm generally not a fan of survival or horror games. Even Outer Wilds (especially so its DLC) were too "heavy" for me; stuff like Amnesia or Resident Evil I don't touch at all. So Alyx was a very bad hit for me.
I think generally, Alyx is liked. But not a lot of people played it.
To me half life 2 and alyx feel more like tech demos then actual well rounded great games. They obviously aren't bad, but over rated for what they are.
Wait what? HL2 a tech demo??
