Gaming - Most Overhyped Game - View Post

The game I over hyped the most was also Majoras Mask. I love it to death but 2000 when I got it I was expecting it to blow my mind like OOT did. Sadly it could not live up to OOT. I hated the dungeons so much. I think the game is a masterpiece though and is my 2nd fav Zelda game.

but game i consider overhyped by others is Last of Us. its barely a game at all. its the same thing as any other 3rd person shooter. realistic brown and gray borefest.

it's fine if you don't like LoU but I don't get this criticism.  It has very open gameplay.  They give you a fairly large environment and give you free reign to tackle it however you want and scrounge around as much as needed.  I had to restart certain areas even after beating the enemies because using too many resources just screws you over in the future.  Case in point I had to beat a band of bandits with 3 arrows and 2 pistol shots.  So tough and yet so satisfying (on Survivor of course).  It's a gamer's game.  It's full of gameplay and is not overly cinematic despite its strong story.  It is not "barely a game at all."  Go ahead and criticize mechanics or story or art style but that criticism doesn't stand up no matter how many times people say it.
