They provide open worlds to explore, character customization, and wonderful storytelling.
Therefore, it’s pretty hard for an RPG to be a complete flop.
That said, we have compiled a comprehensive list of some of the biggest RPG fails.
Take a look at the five worst RPGs of all time.
Wild West Online
Many people joined the Wild West Online hype train when the first screenshots appeared.
Since it looked a lot like Red Dead Redemption, expectations were high.
In comparison to Red Dead Redemption, fans of Wild West Online were severely disappointed.
All the other features inMajestic Nightsare plagued by sloppy craftsmanship, bug-filled mechanics, and various confusing interfaces.
The game suffers from everything an RPG ought to avoid.
Not to forget the game’s horrible unclear dialogue, some of which has not even been translated.
As it featured much playable gameplay and a 3D fantasy world that anyone in the 90s would appreciate.
Unfortunately, the messy attempt at its remastering is what gives the title a bad reputation.
Some things are simply better left alone.
Infestation: Survivor Stories
Most zombie survival RPGs are straightforward and fun, but notInfestation: Survivor Stories.
You may forget about huge zombie fights in this game.
While you’re expected to cooperate with other players to obtain survival items, there may not be enough.
And because the game features such limited activities, players just end up hunting each other instead.
However, many accused the game developers of trying to mimic a popular title dubbedDayZ.
Still, the creators ofInfestation: Survivor Storiesonly managed to bring out the worst aspects ofDayZ.
The poor controls and glitches experienced every now and then also do little to help it.
The only best way to redeem this Infestation title would be perhaps through a massive remaster.
The game is lacking in the most important aspects that make a great RPG.
From inadequacy in character customization to shallow gameplay and an absolute lack of a story.
Players literally have nothing to do but move in units, issuing attacks.
The game features annoying drawbacks such as in-app purchases that are just too costly and not worth the struggle.
These and many other visual flaws make the game unbearable to play.
