There are games that change the paradigm of gaming industry. That change the way we play, entertain ourselves, or interact with others. Games you can't help to think about when you're not playing. Games that will etch their mark on game design for years to come. Games that will keep on haunting you even long after you saw the credits rolling.
This thread is not about these games.
It's about those games, high profile or not, where, you might have enjoyed your time with them, but once you put the controller down, you put it back in its case/deleted it from your console/PC and went doing something, never to think about it again.
It doesn't even have to be a bad game. Just a game that would qualify as a bump on the road of your life : something that distracted you for a short time but ultimately changed nothing.
A bad game/a game you thought was bad and intensely dislike doesn't count, as it technically isn't forgettable
I'd say personally that game was Luigi's Mansion 3. Don't get me wrong, I was excited to play this, I loved LM1 when I was a teenager and liked ML2 enough to want a sequel. It's not a bad game, it's pretty competent at what it does (graphics, animation, music, etc) and it definitely cannot be defined as "boring" (even though it has some boring or downright annoying moments) and I even globally enjoyed it.
It's just that, once I beat it, I didn't feel anything special. I would be hard pressed to recount what even happened in the game or describe one moments that I liked. It was more like crossing something off a Todo list.
What about you ?

IMHO Anthem for example definitely isn't forgettable
