Press X To Win the Award

for worst gameplay

Sega's presentation showed how they can reduce stage design and make a game so pathetically easy, any casual can beat it within the refund window.
Sonic Forces
Sonic Team
Oh boy! Isn't it great to for a game to have a feature that allows you to skip all storytelling or challenge?
Assassin's Creed: Origins

The new attractions in abilities and guns WOULD be promising if the game could even be played in a satisfying state first.

The Darkness sacrificed an entire village. You sacrificed your time playing this garbage.

The graphics are pretty. The gameplay is pretty bland.

Stats and damage are all tied to weapon and equipment buffs from lootbox grinding. Oh dear.

Let's make this buggy, repetetive camp-a-thon a winner winner chicken dinner!

Undertale mechanics stopped being clever in 2015.

The game lies to you about level scaling, the AI is even worse than before, and there's STILL not enough content to stand out from being an overpriced expansion.
Destiny 2
Bungie
