Bonus entry: In Battlefield 2042, they had done a lot of work on "legacy features" such as voice comms and...a scoreboard. Alas, they decided these features would be better implemented as DLC.

"being complete" is a big missing feature from games nowadays, like halfway through testing and bug fixing the shareholders are like yea thats good enough, ship it out and just bloat it with microtransactions to keep em hooked in and add a huge day 1 patch thats the rest of the game that takes like 4 hours to download.

The World at War one is cool. I loved how COD 3 incorporated so many allied storylines

[LORDOFDORKNESS]

Man, that Arcane Room one from Dishonored sounded COOL. Would have definitively been a really neat future if those paintings you can steal showed up in there, too.
Honestly, dang shame it got cut. Think it would have made quite a few jaws drop, back in the day.

Bioshock Infinite has also a lot cut content. For example in some trailers you see Elizabeth help you fighting with her Powers. The developers also could not make the game they wanted because they were limited by the consoles and PCs back then.

Argh, Arthur not getting to travel the whole RDR2 map, draw his sketches, complete those side quests, shoot some more people that need shooting, hurts my heart still. I'm sure R* didn't anticipate that players would love him as much as John. I need to become a billionaire so I can somehow make that Arthur DLC happen...

The gojira in Fallout: New Vegas is an interesting cut content from that game. Killing for fire gecko becomes monotonous especially when you're on a higher level with a powerful gun. A giant lizard roaming over the Mojave Wasteland is cool in my opinion

Not really relevant but every day when one of your videos comes out, I watch it and as it’s playing I row 20 times per item on your list. 200 reps of rowing for me today, thanks Gameranx 😤

The halo reach one would have been amazing, I remember rumors that youd be able to control frigate ships in space :(

[TheTripleDvine]

Oh a new gameranx video you say? Clicky clicky

[dexterhopkins]

My favourite missing feature is cyberpunk missing a functioning game, seems like a missed opportunity

Saw this video and thought "I bet they've not talked about Dragon's Dogma in this" and I was proven wrong. Good on you, because Dragons Dogma is one of the best RPG's out there and that's crazy because of just how much they cut out of the game.

Also, Dishonored is fantastic, too.

IIRC, Perfect Dark's facemapping was partly cancelled due to the school shooter episodes like Columbine. There were some hysterics going around about putting other people you know faces on characters you're supposed to be killing.

While a small detail I was sad that they didn't end up adding Lagiacus to Monster Hunter World. Funny thing is they had a special area and a scenario planned where they clearly played with trying to find a way to incorporate Lagiacrus into the game. They probably just reused the the skeleton and model from the older Monster Hunter games, and played around with it; which the in game file where this was shown or found was Lagi appearing in a massive swampy area and attacking an Anjanath. The developers even added small detail that Anjanath frantically started thrashing around when it fell over and first saw Lagiacrus appear in the distance. I miss Lagiacrus! 😣

Okay so i used infinite health to take arthur to the west and saw all the weird things that he draws in his Journal and in my second play thru i took john there and I found out that both arthur and john wrote different things, abt the things they see, I really liked the fact that even tho arthur wasn't suppose to be in west he still has different writing quotes than john

Battle Gear to this day still hurts to never been able to use it. Damn.

[kungflupenguin]

That dishonored door would've actually been the coolest thing ever. It fits into the powers so much

[khoaleo]

I’ve been stuck with gameranx for a long time however I find the countdown flashes me everytime watching their ranking series in dark environment. Hear me out Falcon!

I love the fact that Alan Wake 2 is in development and that we're going to get hopefully the open-world Alan Wake that we wanted with serious psychological horror elements to it the original Alan Wake was more of a horror game not really that psychological there was some element of psychological in this to it but not as much. It was still my favorite game of that year and is one of my top five most favorite games to play

Chico was the boy you rescued in MGS Ground Zeroes and who already appeared in Peace Walker. So I guess they wanted to really turn him into a twisted killing machine.
