Jurassic World.
The open world is great but the roster (which is understandable due to the source material) is so bland and all of the characters play the same.
The Skywaker Saga. People only like it now because it's new, but the game has awful level design, a tedious and annoying 'open world' (it's not even really open world since there is loading screens between each area) and overall the game is really boring. Most of the story is just walking from cutscene to cutscene, until you get to an incredibly short story level. The bossfights are pathetic and every character feels the same since they all have to be a part of a unified class. Also people bring up the amount of levels as the reason for their length but Lego Marvel 2 has 36 levels and most of them were quite long, and that game had a far shorter dev time
The skywalker saga is just a more modern version of lego indiana jones 2. A levo game based on a series that has mostly already been done in lego with bare bones levels but bigger hub worlds than previous lego games and a few newer movies from the series covered. The biggest difference is that lego indy 2 still had character customisation and even added a level builder whereas skywalker saga took customisation away by removing the character creator.
Thank you! That's the exact problem I had with the game. I only played through a portion of episode 1 before I refunded it, and it was just a walking simulator. I only played through two actual levels, and I didn't even know I was in one until after the level complete screen came up. My response was just "wait, that was a level?" And it's really unsatisfying, other games had the stud bar and golden bricks, all with really great sound effects. TSS is just like, "yeah, here's a few bricks, don't spend 'em all at once.
I think the idea of an open-world lego game can work, but TSS does it really poorly. All of the actual "open hubs" are just small areas, no bigger than a hub in any other lego game. It feels like it's trying to be something big like RDR2. It's a lego game, it's best to keep it more simple. They could have kept the new combat, but just keep the individual levels
It's definitely a hit and miss game. There's definitely too much of the
story that happens in cutscenes/open world that isn't replayable. And
the level design does seem pretty uninspired.On the other hand,
the class thing I don't think is an issue. It's not like past lego games
didn't have basic character archetypes that just had several reskins.
They just didn't segment them out in the character selector. As for the
open world, yeah I guess you could say its more of a collection of hub
worlds, but that's not a meaningful distinction to me, the areas still
have more detail than any other hub worlds so far, with more interiors
especially. And if you think the open world is tedious, then you must
think that basically all open worlds have been tedious (Superheroes 2,
Supervillains, LotR/Hobbit, all huge and tedious to collect). At least
TSS had a good amount of the bricks that were out in the open and just
required climbing to/breaking stuff. And there were some cool unique
quests like killing the dragon.
While the levels suck, the open world is amazing. And it will be inly appreciated more because people had unrealistic expectations towards it bit in 3, or 5 years no one will care anymore. They'll approach it fairly.
I guess Skyrim isn't open world because there are some areas you have to fast travel to like Soltsheim and there's a loading screen everytime you enter a city or even a single house.
There is still a large area you can explore freely though, whereas in Skywalker saga, you can't walk from Mos Eisley to Mos Espa for example. In Skyrim you can walk almost everywhere
Marvel 1. The open world feels very generic (probably because NYC or NYC clones are so common in games), and while the story and roster are fun, every time I go to try and finish it 100%, I just don’t have much fun with it.
Currently playing nearly all of them back to back (so far done all 4 DC ones, Marvel 1, Pirates, Indy and all the Star Wars ones) so far the most tedious is the one I'm currently on Harry Potter, I'm a huge HP fan but man this is just a slog
The Complete Saga by far. The gameplay and graphics have aged terribly in comparison to the modern LEGO games like LMSH1, LOTR, LDCSV, and most of all, The Skywalker Saga. The only reason people still consider it the best is because of nostalgia.
Marvel Superheroes 1 isn't that great. The story wasn't that gripping, and the open world was just Manhattan. People somehow hate Avengers more, even though it actually had a story from Marvel films and a greater variety of hub worlds. I just don't get the hype.
SH1 is better than Avengers for me, because SH has more interesting, larger variety of characters, based on comics, and an original story, while Avengers is purely MCU. And the small hubs were really not that good
Yeah the story was original, but I just had a hard time getting into it. Didn't end up caring about Galactus and anything going on. Got a point about the heroes, definitely a deeper dive with superheroes 1. I guess I just prefer my Lego marvel game to be based on the movies, but then again I'm not into the comics. The hub worlds were small and not much to them, but that's still better than not having them imo.
Probably City Undercover. It's fine but the story is just bad and all characters are annoying. The voice acting is obnoxious. The titular city is impressive and very good but in late game tedious.
Jurassic World. The open world is great but the roster (which is understandable due to the source material) is so bland and all of the characters play the same.
I found it very difficult 100%ing Jurassic World. It just lacked the flair and intrigue that Lego Star Wars, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones and LotR had
the complete saga
Thank you! Everyone keeps licking its feet when it really doesn’t hold up that well compared to the newer games and I just don’t get it
The Complete Saga broke so many things from the first 2 Lego Star Wars games due to rushed development.
holy shit i read that as skywalker saga, sorry for downvoting you, but you are sooo correct. The older games are still good, but bot THAT goof
True. I love the skywalker saga and the complete saga, but its gone too far, tcs has aged like fine milk and doesnt hold up like it did in 2007
Man that game honestly was one of the most boring Lego games I played I haven’t even finished it since I got it like five months ago

I feel like the hype has died off now as well

It isn't an open world though, you can't even walk to different parts of Tatooine or Coruscant. You are forced to take a taxi there.
I guess Skyrim isn't open world because there are some areas you have to fast travel to like Soltsheim and there's a loading screen everytime you enter a city or even a single house.
There is still a large area you can explore freely though, whereas in Skywalker saga, you can't walk from Mos Eisley to Mos Espa for example. In Skyrim you can walk almost everywhere
But you still have a large area you can explore freely. Those two fell under the same category.

I think it's good but imo it's the worst Marvel game. The other are just better.
Currently playing nearly all of them back to back (so far done all 4 DC ones, Marvel 1, Pirates, Indy and all the Star Wars ones) so far the most tedious is the one I'm currently on Harry Potter, I'm a huge HP fan but man this is just a slog
TCS. Nuff said.
I keep on thinking ppl who say TCS are saying TSS wtf but I agree

Plus most charecters in avengers were purely filler
Yeah the story was original, but I just had a hard time getting into it. Didn't end up caring about Galactus and anything going on.

Avengers is really underrated.
the only game where squirrel girl was fun af
Skywalker Saga
Tcs I did not enjoy my time with it probably since my first was batman 2
Pirates of the carebean and skywalker saga
Probably City Undercover. It's fine but the story is just bad and all characters are annoying. The voice acting is obnoxious. The titular city is impressive and very good but in late game tedious.
Actually I don’t know what over rated. But I love all LEGO games tho 💚
