Might be a hot take, but in Dave The Diver, when you (spoiler) >!meet the fish kingdom people (forgot what they were called)!< I lost interest in the game. I just wanted to find bigger and crazier fish! I don't care about their story missions.

I will always answer Genshin. One twist in a certain act just yeah... Sour my perception of the game as a whole

When World of Warcraft switched the hunters from mana to focus... sounds dumb but it f'd with me. Also getting into the habit of putting out an expansion ASAP when a lot of people didn't even get to experience all the content of the latest one, then being able to buy gold with real money... get outta here

Red dead redemption 2 when you play as jack after Arthur i feel that jack is weird dude to play with

Star wars Battlefront 2. You play the most loyal person to the empire. But of course you get a change of heart and join the rebels. It was suchs a boring choice.

We finally got a chance to see the bad side of the story. But no....

I really enjoyed FFXV first half open world. Then suddently the game became XIII and I hated it

Prey (2017). The ending really ruined wat was shaping to be a "top 10 favourite game". It was the equivalent of "it was just a dream" ending in movies, makes you feel like you just wasted your time.

Not really a twist, but the end of Beginner's Guide pissed me off so bad that it completely turned around the glowing opinion I had until that point. With time and space I can separate the good from the bad better, but for awhile I was completely soured on the game.

Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope's ending is complete horseshit.

Super Mario Odyssey was ruined the moment I realized I could purchase infinite stars/moons in the game’s shops.

All that collection time wasted. I abandoned the game right there, and when I replay it will be with a rule to never buy stars/moons.

The ending of Mass Effect 3.

Was playing House in Fata Morgana.

I got to "that part"

I stopped playing and held my wife and kid for a while thankful for having them in my life.

Ghost of Tshuchima.

They spend the entire game building up what an unbelievable badass your character is. He has superhuman senses and can literally see through walls via hearing. He constantly takes down groups of dozens of enemies that ambush him. He tanks damage that would kill a hundred elephants and just keeps on going.

Then, they have a cutscene where some random nobody enemy somehow manages to SNEAK UP ON THE GUY WHOS HEARING IS SO GOOD HE CAN SEE THROUGH WALLS AND IS SO TOUGH HE ROUTINELY TANKS SHOTS FROM FLAMING BALLISTAE, and just casually knocks him unconscious with a wee little bonk to the head. And what's worse, then when you're captured, they kill an NPC you've grown to care about (again in a cutscene where you have no control) and a ton of horrible shit happens, all because your demigod of a character somehow magically got snuck up and knocked out by some fodder enemy that in reality you would have heard coming a mile away and oneshotted without even looking at them.

Bioshock Infinite, Booker has to die, so every version of Comstock will die.

It makes no sense whatsoever, that's not how parallel worlds work even inside of that game.

Hell in the Burial At Sea DLC we see that at least one Comstock did survive.

Diablo 4. Bro, you don’t even kill Diablo wtf???

Unlike most of reddit, I really liked Starfield's story. The ending killed it for me. I absolutely hated the end.

I really liked Deathloop—I don’t think it was game of the year material, but it was fun and I don’t regret having purchased it as soon as it came out—but as soon as I got to the ending I was like “nnnnnno, this is stupid, this can’t be how it ends.” That was how it ended. I shut the game off and never went back to it.

Very long time Halo fan here. Played the first game in 2001 when I was young, got Halo 2 right after launch, followed the entire series (books, graphics novels, official site info dumps) up until right after Halo 5. I did play Infinite, though, which I didn't hate. Anyways, here's mine.

Halo 5, when it turned out a fragment of Cortana survived. Making the entire sacrifice at the end of 4 to feel almost a waste of tears. Then she turns evil and is the new big threat. Kind of just went, "Welp. Wonder where tf they'll go with this now."

Not only made me feel ripped off from Halo 4, but 5 as well.

Then Infinite came out. Where is Cortana, you wonder???

Oh, she died. Yeah, for real this time. Off screen. Oh, but don't worry, an echo or some bull crap tells you everything that happened, and you can see a reenactment of when she, I guess, made herself explode???

Kind of ruined three games worth of Story for me. Don't get me wrong, each one has positive features of the stories, they just all feel entirely soured by the Supernatural-esqe die, live, die stuff.

Outlast 2. Loved the village and rural setting with religious and body horror. Bored out of my mind with the way too frequent school flashbacks.

Ark was pretty fun until I tried the online servers....

It is still fun, but the online side left me disheartened

I wouldn’t say ruined but in the Uncharted games when the supernatural creatures showed up. Always threw me off.

The campaign of the 2019 SWBF2. I just wanted to blast some rebel scum. Wouldn't have minded if they had segments switching between Rebel and Imperial perspectives but just making Iden go full traitor bothered me.

Far Cry 5 had me hooked until the first time I got inescapably kidnapped to be stuck in a frustrating story mission.

The it happened again, and again. Never finished the game after that.

Army of two, devils cartel. Got to a point, stopped, got pissed, never touched it again.

I played Might and Magic 7 all the time. Fantasy RPG in a dungeons and dragons universe? Sign me up! The twist? In the end your universe is being controlled by a horde of cybernetic robots and you had to level up your lazer shooting skills. All your efforts into leveling magic were for nothing. Then you go around and fight dragons with laser guns. Its just ridiculous and OP. Then end ruined the game.

That choice at the end of gears of war 5 was so fucking jarring. I don’t think they can recover from that. It was already not a great fame but yeah the ending sucked so much

FFVI. I got to the point where you could glue magic onto any character. “Awesome,” I thought. “I can teach cure, life, and clear to every character and never worry about dying.” And soon enough, I stopped worrying about dying. All the challenge was drained from the game.

Of course, I could always just not do that. Play the game with the way the characters are built. But the joy was already gone.

I had high hopes when I first picked up Sly 4 Thieves in Time. I did my best to avoid any and all spoils of the game. Started going through it and loved the direction of it. But then the reveal of who the Black Knight was just made me question the stupidity of the games direction. Not to mention also the main antagonist being incredibly lame too as you progressed further.

The last of us. They/them ruined it for me.

Aerith died!
