Some games from the past play a lot worse in hindsight than others. What recent, decently-liked video games do you expect to suffer this curse?

    Strictly speaking it's not from the last 5 years but Rockstar was milking it dry until very recently: GTA5. I really hope that someday GTA5 is looked back on as the boring, unfinished piece of crap it is. San Andreas is a better game by several leagues and that shit came out on the PS2.

      GTA 5

      And it has been out for ten fucking years.

      • GTA 1 to 4: 11 years

      • GTA 5 to 6: 12 years

        It feels like the gap between 4 and 5 was also really long but goddamn, its been a fucking decade.

        As far as I'm concerned, the franchise started with GTA3.

        7 years, GTA3, VC, SA, LCS, VCS, GTA4

        5 year wait, then GTA5.

        And that was 11 years ago.

      I’m going through the story mode for the first time since release and it’s better than I remember but still hasn’t aged well overall. The radio sucks, the driving is worse than 4 imho, and Trevor is pretty much unnecessary as a character. The fact that the story was thrown to the wayside in favor of online also sucks.
