If only it had understood them better.  Or at least put them into a better game.  From <a href=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/2017\/02\/05\/resident-evil-7-silent-hill-texas-chainsaw-massacre-feat-blair-witch-project\/\">the review<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8230;instead of a horror game that follows through with the obvious inspiration it draws from Silent Hill, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Blair Witch Project, you get a horror game that taps into your fear of not having enough room to carry the green herb you found.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>5. Assassin&#8217;s Creed: Origins<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/AC-Origins-boat.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-44556\" \/><\/p>\n<p>More scenery than game.

The ancient Egypt they\u2019ve built is nothing short of breathtaking for its detail, expanse, aesthetic, and sheer splendor. And it damn well better be, because it\u2019s pretty much all there is to this game.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>4. Xenoblade Chronicles 2<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Xenoblade-overrated.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-45150\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A game about leveling up a bunch of cool characters&#8230;who stand around on the sidelines while you play these other putzes.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>3.

That&#8217;s been clear ever since I put Halo into the first Xbox 1.  They&#8217;re even doing a fine job situating that gunplay into a never-ending MMO.  But the glacial progression system is a wet blanket over the whole thing.  Destiny 2 demands that you care about the difference between a light level of 216 and a light level of 217.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>2. Super Mario Odyssey<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Mario-Odyssey-overrated.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-45151\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Insipid mascot with a creepy porn &#8216;stache who should have been retired ten years ago, formulaic puzzles n&#8217; jumps we&#8217;ve seen a thousand times before, pointless sprawl that exists mainly so you can ride a camel or some damn thing, an obligatory moon slice every three minutes, a surfeit of meaningless coins because humans are conditioned to want coins, and desultory levels with no aesthetic consistency and zero surprises.  I suppose the T-Rex was pretty awesome while he lasted.  Everything since then has been a tedious procession of forced candy-colored jubilance and meaningless bubblegum gameplay.  <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>1. Horizon: Zero Dawn<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Horizon-Zero-Dawn-ruins-in-the-ruins.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43073\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Hunting robot dinosaur is thrilling stuff and beyond reproach.  But the writing, characters, and cutscenes are some of the most shamelessly derivative and clumsy pandering I&#8217;ve ever witnessed.<\/p>\n<p>From <a href=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/2017\/05\/21\/horizon-zero-dawn-violates-hippocratic-oath-game-design\/\">the review<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>[The developers] write as if they were Rockstar, sure that you\u2019ll be fascinated by the awkward exposition for every random stranger who needs you to find his missing sword\/wife\/jewelry. Their story is cringe worthy for its seriousness, for how it\u2019s oblivious to being awkward, drawn-out, and blatantly derivative. The heroine\u2019s Hunger Games get interrupted by some bad guys with an Insidious Agenda that must be Investigated via a string of Story Quests. With the help of a Mysterious Stranger, you will discover her Secret Backstory and then her Worldsaving Destiny. Godawful dialogue and clumsy cutscenes abound, each worse than the last, each longer than the last. Horizon plays out extended puppet show conversations as if it were Mass Effect. It locks you into rooms to watch purple hologram ghosts having conversations. It constantly stops to explain itself, even when it should be winding up. If there\u2019s one thing worse than being front-loaded with exposition, it\u2019s being back-loaded with exposition. Horizon, fraught with turgid exposition dungeons, is both.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/2017\/12\/27\/disappointing-games-2017\/\">The most disappointing games of 2017<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/2017\/12\/28\/surprising-games-2017\/\">The most surprising games of 2017<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/2017\/12\/31\/top-ten-games-2017\/\">The top ten games of 2017<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/2016\/12\/15\/top-ten-games-2016\/\">Last year&#8217;s lists<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overrated is a loaded term.
