I’m talking about games that you still like but you had no idea were criticized so much.

The perfect example for me is Sonic Unleashed.

I admit that the game has its bad things, but I would have never imagined that it was so hated at the time… Although, that could be extended to the entire Sonic franchise, since for many years I was not aware at all of that “Sonic was never good”, “Sonic had a rough transition to 3D” nonsense.

        That game looked fine to me tbh. I think it might have been the point that their yearly release schedule had begun to saturate the brand as opposed to the games getting worse.

          A lot of critics hated the dog calling and the story, and it is still included in list of worst sequels of all time. I will never understand why
