I’m talking about games that you still like but you had no idea were criticized so much.

The perfect example for me is Sonic Unleashed.

I admit that the game has its bad things, but I would have never imagined that it was so hated at the time… Although, that could be extended to the entire Sonic franchise, since for many years I was not aware at all of that “Sonic was never good”, “Sonic had a rough transition to 3D” nonsense.

    I remember some people in Reddit not being too happy with It Takes Two.

    We loved it and look forward to playing Split Fiction when we find the time.

      They’re just mad they don’t have any friends or a partner to play it with.

      I don’t want to dissuade you, because Split Fiction is just as fun, game-play-wise, as It Takes Two.

      But the story is not as good. And the characters are even more teeth-grindingly frustrating sometimes.

      But still play it, it’s a lot of fun.

        IIRC it was a minority, but the critique was gender stereotypes and misogyny.

        They are entitled to their opinions, and I’m glad I read it after playing the game so it did not affect my experience.
