Forspoken has been getting hate because of an unlikable and annoying protagonist, bad dialogue, bland quests, and mostly empty world.That being said, the gameplay and battle system are excellent with good boss fights.

Callisto Protocol was very short in terms of overall play, so it didn't have time to really flush the story or characters out. The gameplay is great though with interesting mechanics.

What really brought hate however, was the PC release that launched the same day as consoles and had a lot of bugs that made it unplayable. But that always happens because it takes time to tweak console games to run smoothly on PC. Their fault for jumping the gun and not delaying it's release on that platform.

Callisto protocol also gets a lot of criticism because the dodging mechanic is easily exploited. 1v1 there's not much reason for you to take damage from an enemy.

I'm sure they wanted to differentiate from Dead Space's gun focus, but I'm not sure the melee focus was a great idea, at least as it was implemented.
