Which games had the biggest gulf between the immediate reaction and long-term consensus about its quality?

It's only on /v/ I see people shit on this game so much

GTA IV was roundly hailed as a 10/10 masterpiece when it came out, now it's considered the black sheep of the series by many

BoTW when the next big Zelda is released

Wrong, you can hate it on reddit and get upboats

Bioshock Infinite isn't bad, it's just not that great -
a nicely built world and fun story, but very linear with some really boring gunplay.

Meanwhile, W:TNO got some really middling reviews and was a similar game in a lot of way, except it played better.

All modern games are shit. All so caled press are corrupted jerks. Nothing new. All money sinking on marketing but not games

Bioshock Infinite without a doubt. Why would you essentially /thread your own post OP?

Fallout 4 is probably the only thing close.
>>
NMS
>>
>>381655461
People hated Fallout 4 from the get go though
>>
>>381655029
Twilight Princess.

>Fallout 4 is probably the only thing close.
What about Dragon Age Inquisition? Won so many GOTYs then Witcher 3 came along and bettered it in every way
>>
>>381655321
Thank you Matthewmatosis

People hated Infinite from the beginning.

Redpill me on Fallout 4. The last Fallout I played was Fallout 3 and I loved it.

Nah, most people took at least 2 weeks to get over their boners from Elizabeth.

Normies have turned on this game the past few years. Now if only they would do that for TLOU.

You'll love it because you're a moron.

They will once they find out that Joel gets taken out by a white trash redneck and is replaced by a tolerant Muslim. Cuckman has said that 2 will be a reaction to Trump. The shitstorm will be glorious.

>>381655098
6 years later and it's still immensely popular, even on /v/.
>>
>>381655167
It's universally disliked though these days though
>>
>>381656171
Except it's mostly agreed on /v/ it's only good for a quick fap and spending an hour downloading mods and then getting bored ten minutes into the actually game
>>
>>381656279
Thats good. f4 cannot into this even for 5 minutes

MGSV

reviewers creamed over it at the review bootcamp but after a while you see through it's lies and just how shitty of a game it is.
>>
>>381655029
People still don't recognize Peace Walker as the game that killed MGS series and introduced all negative traits that exemplified what V was about.

So PW.
>>
Resident Evil 7.

I still like it and I really want to see what 8 will look like, but the 2nd half was a real let down.

At the start I was ready to put it in the top 4 of the series, now it's probably around Code Veronica.
>>
>>381655029
Dark Souls 2.
>>
>>381656034
Did it really? I remember all the "official" reviews giving it 10/10s and anyone who actually played it immediately being massively disappointed, if they were even hyped to begin with.
>>
>>381655029
Probably Silent Hill 2, on release it was disliked because most people were disappointed it didn't continue the story of 1, had nothing to do with the cult, and was a very different style of story and horror.
>>
>>381655461
Fallout 4 doesn't really count. Everyone that liked it on release still likes it, everyone that doesn't like it didn't like it from the moment skills were gone and the dialogue was turned to complete trash.
>>
Bioshock 1
>>
>>381657120
All Bethesda games easily could be judged by their mod community. Lets look at nexus. Especially on f4. There are nothing. Nonending recolors of ingame shit. Even f3 fags could do better. Now looking at skyrim...

You might want to check your definitions there chief. Your personal opinion is not a consensus.

what first i was like "10/10" and then I was like "meh. it's just an empty open world with ubisoft tower, seeds, and shrines entrances"
>>
>>381655029
Remember when people were shitting on DOOM before, and a few days after it came out?
>>
>>381655029
Sonic Unleashed
>>
>>381655167
People may not shit on it like /v/ does actively, but compare the press it got on and shortly after release. It was "the Citizen Kane" of videogames. The next bit classic in the canon, the must play game of the year. It was incredibly shilled by the press to the extent I'm surprised people blew up about some slut sleeping around and not the massive retardation and stars in the eyes of the larger gaming press. Everyone had to say something about it.

Now it's mostly known for being the origin of all that Elizabeth porn and memes about cards. That's its legacy, in the end.
>>
If you don't think Fallout 4 is the perfect example of this, then you can fuck right off. I remember it getting a 9/10 from GameSpot and everybody was either in love with it or a little uncertain.

Now everyone can agree that it's bad.
>>
>>381656453
only /v/ thinks its shitty though.
>>
>>381655461
>Bioshock Infinite without a doubt. Why would you essentially /thread your own post OP?
Because threads are meant to start a discussion where everybody brings their own opinions and examples, not a contest where you make the wittiest reply and everybody pats your shoulder.

>inb4 welcome to 4chan, you must be new
you're doing it again.

It's one of the best games ever made. Get over it.
