This can be especially true in the case of Tomb Raider. It was promoted as if it would be the second coming of survival gaming, then ended up being a female uncharted clone (disagree if you will). It’s definitely not a bad game, but it’s nothing special.
If it wasn’t for the over-hype and the huge target figure Square put on it, the game probably wouldn’t have been seen as a disappointment.
