What video game have you played the most, that you think is garbage and no one else should ever play? (lemmy.world)

I have played Eve Online so many hours, and it's a bad game. Don't do it. you will spend hundreds of hours dreaming about the cool thing you'll do later, but for 99% of players the cool thing will never happen. You will be part of the one percent's cool thing.

Do you have a similar game?

Inkbound is... disappointing.

I played the demo and it was pretty solid. It's an isometric, turn based strategy roguelike, with multiplayer support and some competitive features. I was initially planning to buy it on release.

But the price at launch was a bit higher than it would be for a no-brainer purchase, and playing requires constant online connectivity, despite supporting singleplayer play, AND came with a cosmetic battlepass out the gate.

I found it ridiculous that the game couldn't even support offline play before pushing a battlepass. Cosmetic only or no, this game is missing important functions and ultimately put me off getting a paid PC game that hasn't even gotten it's shit together before shilling their microtransactions. Smh.

Without a doubt, I'm so disappointed with Inkbound following their Early Access, battle pass and trying to shill cosmetics. I was initially excited for it following Monster Train. As it stands I can't recommend Inkbound and I've not got high hopes for its future.
