10 Reasons All Video Games Are Starting To Suck

10. Over-Marketing

When the Resident Evil Village trailer was released, viewers went crazy over Lady Dimitrescu, due to her absolutely massive... um... potential. Rather than leaving well alone, Capcom went nuts, pumping out clips, teasers, and posters revolving around the voluptous countess.

Even though Village was well-received, players were disappointed to learn Dimitrescu didn't play a major part. Although the trailers' implied Dimitrescu was the antagonist, she exits the story before the halfway point.

Annoyingly, this sort of overmarketing happens all the time. Because Far Cry 3 sold Vaas Montenegro as the big bad of Far Cry 3, gamers were confused when he was killed off before the climax.

But this doesn't just happen with characters, but with the games themselves. An exorbitant amount was spent on the marketing costs for Destiny, No Man's Sky, and Cyberpunk 2077, even though they all received underwhelming reviews. If the creators repurposed some of the marketing money into the games themselves, it would've worked out for the better.

If these characters prove to be popular, we don't need them shoved them down our throats. If these games stand on their own, we don't need to be reminded of them every five minutes.
