What's the most overrated game ever in your opinion?

At the risk of sounding like a snob I’ll say most games are overrated, because how crazy hype culture and fanboy outrage is in this industry. I pity the poor soul that dares say something bad about Zelda or The Last of Us. (Both games that I like btw)

On a personal level, I couldn’t get into the Witcher 3. The main draw seems to be the high quality of its sidequests, but I tend to focus on the main quest when playing games and I found it to be pretty average. Nothing spectacular. The combat felt like a poor man’s Bloodborne and I’ll never understand the need of weight limit in a game that wants you to go out and explore.

Honestly that is what I was thinking.  Social media internet etc hypes games so much.

When I had high expectations of games base on the hype i used to get upset when they weren't what I hoped.

Then when I stopped caring about what I expected and what others thought of the game I enjoyed more random games. Kind of like the old days were you had no access to internet and everyone's opinions and you went out on a limb and bought a game that got your attention.

At the end it all comes down to personal taste,

Yeah, I also started avoiding most trailers and I feel like I'm having a much better time with the games as a result, especially when it's from a series I love and that I'll buy regardless of the quality because I need to see it for myself. Going into BotW mostly blind really leaves an impression.
