20 Recent Video Games EVERYONE Knew Would Suck

18. I Am Jesus Christ

As amusing and utterly meme-worthy as the idea of a Jesus Christ simulator might be, did anyone who doesn't sleep with a Bible by their bedside really think that I Am Jesus Christ looked any good?

This open-world chronicle of Jesus' greatest hits began development way back in 2019 and only finally came out this past April - and that's just red flag number one.

In the interim a few demos made it clear how thoroughly bland it was shaping up to be.

And on top of this, developer SimulaM was rightly raked over the coals in the lead-up to release for using AI-generated "voice acting" for both its narration and general dialogue.

And so, beyond those few playing the game ironically, I Am Jesus Christ failed to strike a chord outside of its core demographic, but because it was quite literally preaching to the converted, of course the Steam reviews were effusively positive regardless.
