Was so thoroughly disappointed in White Knight. The only game that treats your created character as a support character lol. 

Aren't you forgetting Dragon's Dogma? You literally create a pawn for other players to hire as support characters :P 

Can’t forget Dragon’s Dogma. It’s one of my favorite games. But the main is also your created character. And I loved the idea of the Pawn being somewhat of a personal mercenary. I really want a sequel to that game!

I swear this question gets asked every few days.

Megaman X6 as well

Ah, this is a good answer actually. It's quite terribly designed and lacks a lot of polish, but I still find it to be enjoyable. I feel it could have been a good game if it got that extra time to clean it up.

You know, I feel Knack was overhated and The Order 1886 was great, but too short with untouched potential.

 

White Knight Chronicles was great, but they released half the game by itself, then released the whole thing as White Knight Chronicles 2.  I beat the first one and was really getting drawn in, but right when the story hits the climax, it ends.

 

By the time the full game came out (and yes, it included the first game so I consider White Knight 2 the full version), I had forgotten half of what happened and the high had passed.  I linked my save data and gave it a shot, but there was just no getting back into it at that point.  Shame because I feel if they had just waited to release White Knight 2 out of the gate, the whole experience would habe been much more enjoyable.

When White Knight Chronicles 2 came out, I actually replayed the first game on the disc since it had the improved battle system, and I could jump straight into the second one after it. 

I reckon there's a better chance of me winning the lottery, but I'd still LOVE Level-5 to do a remaster over to PS4 of the games, lol... just wishful thinking though, right? :P 

I think enough time has passed, that I would buy a PS4 remaster and replay the whole adventure.  The timing between the initial 1 and 2 was just off for me.  Too soon to replay one, but too late to retain my interest starting midway through the story.

Mario Party 1 and Mario Party 9 for me.

I love how brutal the original MP was and I love all the mini-games despite a number of them having improved versions in Mario Party 2.

Mario Party 9's gimmick was bad but the mini-games were the best in the series imo and the boards decently complimented the car. The car was still a bad mechanic though and the linearity of the boards made games way to short and zapped a lot of tension from the game. The boards themselves being made around the gimmick and decently varied made the game pretty enjoyable for me though. The bonus modes helped too.

Not a fan of Mario Party 10 though...



Spore.



Killzone.



Sonic adventure 1&2 and heroes, also final fantasy 8. the junctioning system in ff8 is needlessly complicated and tedious and poorly explained but once I figured it out it became one of my favorite parts of the game. As for sonic it's pure nostalgia

Xenoblade Chronicles 2. The UI is crap. The map is ABSOLUTE TRASH. The lack of english lip sync is EXTREMELY noticeable, often to the actual detriment of cutscenes. The animation for said cutscenes is often stiff. The audio mixing is garbage. The amount of the damn Tiger! Tiger! mini game the game wants you to play to satisfactorily upgrade Poppi is absolutely disgusting (and that's WITH the season pass that cuts that SIGNIFICANTLY. While it wasn't a significant problem for my personally, the fact that the game doesn't let you reread text tutorials is dumb for a game this complicated and dense. All of this in mind, Xenoblade 2 is still one of my favorite games of all time, my GOTY for 2017. I love the combat, story, world, and characters that much.

Other than the bolded I completely agree (though to be fair i'm only 35 hours in and am not really close to seeing the whole world). i still love the game and find it pretty addicting but they're quite a few things that I think were just bad. I especially don't like all the tutorial stuff. I thought Zelda before Breath of the Wild was bad but XC2 is on  whole new level. I'm still getting tutorial bits 30 hours in and I don't feel like reading it, so I end up skipping some of it and try to figure it out on my own or forget about it. The tutorial should've been cut down and more optional imo.

The amount of the damn Tiger! Tiger! mini game the game wants you to play to satisfactorily upgrade Poppi is absolutely disgusting (and that's WITH the season pass that cuts that SIGNIFICANTLY.

Oh damn. Can you give me a rough guess as to how much I would have to play without the DLC and how much I would have to play in order to make Poppi broken? I was thinking of Grinding a bit on Tiger! Tiger! to help make Poppi really good but if its too much I won't bother.
