Honestly it's unfair, these clowns forgave CDPR for lying about CP2077 being complete. MindsEye devs didn't even say anything.

I know "worst" is an adjective that triggers a lot of content farms, but I still feel bad about these situations. Even the worst games, when they manage to be completed, are mountains of effort from the people involved; and as I understand it this was coming from one of IOI's first publishing efforts.
Worst rated game of the year... So far!
I just looked it up. I'm not sure how I missed this one, but i guess im not missing much. Sad because the trailer looked OK and the team behind it should have at least made an average game. I guess I'll read up on what makes it so bad now.
I've been playing it, I'm around 60% through the story, I wouldn't say this is the worst game of 2025, not by a long shot, maybe people were just expecting it to be a GTA clone, when it's more like a single player linear story.
The only issue I have with it is it is all very quick paced, you get a new job and like a day later you're gunning down hundreds of goons.
After awhile you get access to a 'build mode' that allows you to build stuff using provided assets in the world, eg you wanna build a house on top of a skyscraper you can.
The build mode also includes logic nodes for doing gameplay scripting.
All in all I think people enjoy feeling apart of something, and apparently everyone has decided to hate on this game because of "reasons"?
Is this like an Balan Wonderworld bad? Where it’s polished but just an awful experience? Or is it just buggy and meh?
Balans are some of my favorite because there’s something fascinating about a well polished turd that you can’t look away from.
From what I've seen, it's the latter. It's a very mediocre GTA clone that's full of bugs and is very forgettable in every way. The writing is also very bad.
Aww boo. Bad writing can still be fun.
