14 Worst Video Games Of 2016

8. Aragami

Sometimes, a game comes along that you really, really want to like. Aragami was such a game; an old-school stealth-based sneak-a-thon with a killer aesthetic. One where you'd play as a summoned entity wrenched from the abyss to deliver swift, steely justice to all manner of "Huh? What was that noise?"-spewing enemies.

Then you played it, and sadly, being this was developers Lince Works' first ever full game, there was a lack of polish when it came to standard third-person camera controls and animation that got in the way at every turn.

Whilst the titular Aragami is painted as a shadow-clinging bringer of death, in reality you spend more time fleeing from guards who spot you from around corners or across the level than taking them out with any degree of proficiency or satisfaction.

I have every faith that some day these guys will make a truly phenomenal game, but Aragami is sadly not it.
