Wait be didn't even play it?I don't see how he can call Cyberpunk shit while admitting to not playing the game.
I'd agree with it being on a top 10 disappointments list, but the game isn't shit.

he knows exactly what he's doingNot the point. Jim is lying or still hasn't done the research.
That's next week, they said so in this video.These are fun.
Has Jim posted a 2020 best games list yet? I don't see anything on their Youtube channel.
no, it's not. game's main issue is that it's very repetitive and the loot is bad. it's just a bad gaas, worse than diablo for sure. haven't played the shooter onesIs the monetization on the Avengers game that bad?
Because from what I seen the game doesn't look that bad from gameplay perspective. It seems to have a repetitive loop, but most games in that genre have a repetitive loop. Destiny, Diablo 3, The Division...
Yep.Jim putting Avengers on there is so predictable. Avengers gets more shit than it deserves. It's a fun game.
Yeah, if they failed the loot than they really messed up lolno, it's not. game's main issue is that it's very repetitive and the loot is bad. it's just a bad gaas, worse than diablo for sure. haven't played the shooter ones
should have just released the campaign and done the service stuff later
given the scope and visibility of the IP, it is a pretty big fiasco though. i can think of shittier games but i can see it being one of the biggest failures of 2020
i liked the combat fwiw, will probably try again when the ps5 version drops and there is more content
Cyberpunk shouldn't be on that list. I'm enjoying it a lot on the Series S

seems like everyone is only talking about the problems of the last gen versions when talking about the flaws of CP 2077.
what about stuff like the atrocious NPC AI?
disappearing NPCs when you turn your back to them?
and on the other hand Police that spawn in your back, even when you are on a roof top?
lag of interaction with NPCs? NPCs literally pullig stuff out of their asses and other stuff?
Have you played Minecraft Dungeons yourself?Number 4 isn't hard to understand if people actually listen to the video. It's insulting to kids (and adults) based on the source material. The fans of the source material are playing a creatively complex game, while this addendum material is brain dead. Minecraft deserves better.
Yes, he says in the video he lost all interest in buying, playing, or critiquing Cyberpunk. I'm all for calling out CDPR's bullshit, but placing the game on this list feels disrespectful to the developers who had nothing to do with the shitty decisions made by upper management - especially when you haven't played the game yourself.
- Watch the video and it explains why
- It's Jim's list, not yours

No, that's something positive. He doesn't do that.These are fun.

minecraft dungeons seems like a weird one to pick on. it's dungeon crawler lite and isn't hiding that or attempting to be anything else.
Yeah thats fucking stupid. If you wanna put Cyberpunk under disappointment over al lthe news and shit, sure, but don't put it under "Shittiest games" without playing them.Yes, he says in the video he lost all interest in buying, playing, or critiquing Cyberpunk.

the setting seems to be more evocative of a beautiful but empty feeling western open world than anything else. a big beautiful world doesn't count for much when what's inside it is lifeless and boring with NPCs/enemies that all behave the same wayI can see that how cdpr handled the last gen ports, the bugs, the ai problems.. are worth of being called one of the sh*tiest games. (And all the things that are problematic surrounding the game that affects the view of it: crunch, transphobia...)
But playing it on pc i can see how the game could be a game of the year or top ten of the year for a lot of people. Great story missions, lots of really well made sidequests, the city, the setting, the graphics...
He normally does.
Jim's rubric has been extremely clear since they've been doing these lists, and Cyberpunk 100% falls into that category. There was zero chance at all that it ever was going to avoid hitting this list.I don't see how they can call Cyberpunk shit while admitting to not playing the game.

warcraft 3 reforged could easily take minecraft dungeons spot and seems like a bizarre omission when jim's whole persona/schtick is the consumer advocacy stuffThis. I've seen it appear on several 2020 disappointment lists, and it confuses me. Like it's a Minecraft spinoff dungeon crawler for kids. It's pretty fun and entertaining at that. I don't understand why people are picking on it for being exactly as advertised.
I'm not saying he can't be negative, but its pretty lame to go "This is the worst game of 2020" without touching it. Shit wouldn't fly here.he does that every year and he doesn't shit on every game. he also has positive reviews.
It's ridiculous to boil down of the very few people in the industry willing to call out shitty practices on a weekly basis into "isn't about facts, it's about making noise and creating bad feelings". FOH with that.he knows exactly what he's doing
his shtick isnt about facts, it's about making noise and creating bad feelings : )
?I'm not saying he can't be negative, but its pretty lame to go "This is the worst game of 2020" without touching it. Shit wouldn't fly here.
Jim has been highly critical of CDPR's game since its release (you can check Jim's arguments in Jim's channel, bonus song included) so it would actually be strange if it did not made Jim's list.I'm not saying he can't be negative, but its pretty lame to go "This is the worst game of 2020" without touching it.

Its literally in the title of the segment. Shittiest games of 2020....
Like I said, if this was disappointment of 2020 or worst practices of 2020 whatever, its fine. I just think its kinda dumb to rate games as "shittiest" of a year when you havent even touched them.He has been highly critical of CDPR's game since its release (you can check his arguments in his channel, bonus song included) so it would actually be strange if it did not made Jim's list.
Just going to quote thisI can see that how cdpr handled the last gen ports, the bugs, the ai problems.. are worth of being called one of the sh*tiest games. (And all the things that are problematic surrounding the game that affects the view of it: crunch, transphobia...)
But playing it on pc i can see how the game could be a game of the year or top ten of the year for a lot of people. Great story missions, lots of really well made sidequests, the city, the setting, the graphics...
It might be the best game of the world, with 0 bugs, excellent gameplay and superb graphics, but with this shit, this game doesn't belongs to any game of the year list. It needs to be criticized and derided forever. And don't forget the endless crunch and how they were marketing this game.To add to this: Coming into a thread and trying to cape for a game that has issues with transphobia, racism and sexism, among other things, is quite a take, especially when its clear who hasn't watched the video.
again, were does he call a game the worst of 2020??Its literally in the title of the segment. Shittiest games of 2020....
Like I said, if this was disappointment of 2020 or worst practices of 2020 whatever, its fine. I just think its kinda dumb to rate games as "shittiest" of a year when you havent even touched them.
Someone shitting on a game and then going "No I havent played it." Would be rightly called out here.
But whatever, not gonna die on this hill, just made me roll my eyes somewhat.

Jim very literally clarifies that games on this list aren't the 'worst' games of the 2020 strictly in terms of game quality (although that is a factor), just the 'shittiest' in one way or the other - which includes games with bigoted content, misleading marketing, or made by abusive developers (of which CP2077 is guilty of all 3).I'm not saying he can't be negative, but its pretty lame to go "This is the worst game of 2020" without touching it.

Is the monetization on the Avengers game that bad?
Because from what I seen the game doesn't look that bad from gameplay perspective. It seems to have a repetitive loop, but most games in that genre have a repetitive loop. Destiny, Diablo 3, The Division...
Can anyone who's watched it fully describe Jim's reasoning for Hellpoint?
Minecraft Dungeons is pretty bad at what it does and hides behind a "it's for kids" excuse as if kids both don't deserve and are too dumb to understand better games.I just think it's ridiculous for Minecraft Dungeons to appear on any list. It'd be like putting Forza on a "Shitty game" list just because it's a racing game and you hate racers. Jims always had some wild takes, but this is just ridiculous.
They*Look! He picked CP 2077! That's so funny!
Really can't stand this guy...
