10 Reasons All Video Games Are Starting To Suck

6. Expecting Gamers To Accept Broken Games

There are few things more grating than getting hyped for a game, only to learn it's borderline unplayable. Alien Colonial Marines, Sonic '06, and WWE 2K20 weren't just bad. They were undeniably broken.

Why are AAA titles like these being released when they're obviously not ready? Better yet, why do the creators expect us to put up with this subpar practice? In fact, WHY do we put up with it?!

When Marvel's Avengers was deemed an utter trainwreck, Square Enix put out an apology, reassuring fans a patch would rectify over a thousand glitches. But why did it have a thousand glitches to being with? Ten is too many! A thousand is unheard of!

Sadly, these issues have become so common, gamers have become desensitised to it. Guardians of the Galaxy received positive reviews, despite suffering glitches that cause impossible-to-miss glitches. (Sometimes, character's head just go missing!!) At one time, bugs like this could tank a game. Nowadays, they're getting a free pass.

If you're concerned you might come across as petty for complaining about issues like this, don't be. If you spent your hard-earned cash on a product manufactured by a billion-dollar conglomerate, you have a right to be ticked off it's not up to standard.
