The Walking Dead: Destinies, a game that allows players to alter the fate of characters in the popular TV show, has been criticized for its subpar cutscenes. The developers at Flux Games have used only six frames in 12 seconds to depict the pivotal death of Lori Grimes, leading players to label the game as an “evil cash grab.” Social media has been flooded with negative comments, comparing the cutscenes to other notorious failures of 2023 such as The Lord of the Rings: Gollum and Rise of Kong. Despite featuring original voice actors from the show, including Chandler Riggs as Carl Grimes, the game’s voice acting has also been heavily criticized. Unless significant improvements are made, The Walking Dead: Destinies may join the ranks of the worst cutscenes of the year.
| Game | Cutscene Quality | Voice Acting |
|---|---|---|
| The Walking Dead: Destinies | Poor | Worst ever heard |
| The Lord of the Rings: Gollum | Infamous | Noteworthy failure |
| Skull Island: Rise of Kong | Worst of the year | Previous rival |
