10 Major Video Game Mistakes Of The 2010s The Next Gen Must Learn From

It almost seems now that whatever you get shown at gameplay presentations and expos such as E3 and Gamescom, you have to take with a pinch of salt. Chances are the game that you receive on release will not match up to the gameplay demo that you saw.

Be it scripted events that are explained as 'dynamic' or the game running at a much better standard than it really does on your own console.

Gamers have become pretty aware of this now and increasingly cynical, sure to point out whenever any developer markets a game that seems too good to be true. You can't blame developers for wanting to make their game look the best it possibly can, but it always leads to disappointment, so you wonder why they keep trying it.

Fortunately it seems like this practice may be on its way out. The recent gameplay for Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart on PS5 looked amazing but also believable with what we know about the PS5 so far. Fingers crossed it matches up to the product we receive and we can start to rest easy that this trend is finally dying.
