Games that you liked years ago but don't nowadays

[WesternYokai]

Early this year I made a review of Freedom Wars Remastered because I put maybe 150 hours on the original Vita release but well, this new version makes me realize that I think I don't like it anymore. Nothing really appeals to me anymore and hunter games must be one of my favorite subgenres.

A couple years ago I had almost the same feeling with the GTA series in general. I think I don't like these modern day open world action games anymore.

What games make you feel something like that?

Tekken.

I enjoyed the first three games on the PS1 a lot and Tag 1 is easily one of my favorite FGs ever, but once 4 and onwards rolled around, I was mentally checked out of the series. I had a terrible experience with 5 and 6 wasn't any better, I fared slightly better on 7 and was on my way to enjoying it, but as soon as 8 dropped, it completely destroyed all the goodwill the series built with me, lol. It did almost every bad choice possible and made me completely give up on a series I wasn't in such good terms with already.

The FATE series. I was obsessed with those games. Now I can't get into them.

There was a time where i was so into Undertale, that i would watch every video essay, all the mysteries, secrets and all that. Now, I can't stand anything related to it.

Hmmm..... this is Hard.

Man personally i don't think i have a game that i used like but actively disliked nowadays. The closest things to it probably.

Mortal Kombat

I don't know what makes me fall out of love for Mortal Kombat, the more i'm racking my brain the more "Eh i just grew up" comes lol, like tbh after MK9 even i don't think i'm interested in MK anymore and since X i've been actively avoiding it since.

The Second Closest probably.

DotA

I've been a follower for Defense of the Ancients since Warcraft 3 days, but nowadays anything about DotA didn't excites me anymore, hell i think at that point for the entirety of MOBA lol but DotA Specifically.

I used to like Persona 4 a lot when I was a teenager, I remember I played the vanilla version on a PS2 emulator on my PC, I finished the game back in 2019, but my opinions about this game changed a lot when I decided to replay it again in 2022 using the Golden version, and honestly I don't really like it anymore, apart from a few characters.

Most FPS games, like any Counter Strike game. I used to like these alot now i dont see the appeal of playing them at all.

 

[GamingWarthog]

Overwatch and Fate Grand Order. Usually I have trouble stopping caring about things, so it's fascinating to me how much my interest in Overwatch evaporated. It's because they ended up showing too much and made me realize all the supposed substance of its story was an illusion and actually worse than most other online games. Only thing I still like about Overwatch is the Dinoflask videos.

Fate Grand Order is due to me reevaluating how the game was actually using mythology more critically and realizing far more of it is done poorly than well. The gameplay was bad but I kept playing for the story, so when the story stopped being a draw the game lost its appeal. I still like the first story arc and some characters despite everything, but I haven't bothered to follow anything since beyond what a friend who is a fellow jaded fan tells me. At least Melty Blood Type Lumina has put Mash in a real video game instead of a service.

Smackdown vs RAW 2010(the AI traumatized me+probs has ≥300 hours playtime with that one)

Used to enjoy Twilight Princess, after all it was the Zelda that came with my Gamecube in my Birthday, now that i played the rest of the series... it just havent aged as good as i remember, the Dark Mirror dungeons are a drag (Looking at you Coocoo castle) the bosses even for the usual "Use the item to win" standars feel too gimicky with only Zant and Ganondorf feeling like tests for the player and mechanics that feel curbersome (YES MIDNA I WANT TO TURN INTO A WOLF STOP ASKING ME)
