This should be in unpopular opinion lol. For me it is control. The combat feel tiring after 2 to 3 hours and the story didn't caught on for me.
Same here! Lame story and the combat felt terrible.
How is the story lame? It's one of the most original stories I've ever seen in a videogame.
I liked the gameplay for Control but the story never caught on for me either.
Interesting. I agree that the gameplay was meh, but the story and universe it takes place in really intrigued me. I was sucked in from the moment the checkpoint at the front of the building had a sign that said "no rubber ducks". The dead letters dept had a lot of entertaining reading imo.
Control first hours were boring for me too, but end up got fun once they started throwing in more abilities like being able to jump into the air and do a ground slam. I wish they had introduced abilities a lot sooner, since beginning where it just telekinesis and shooting got repetitive fast.
