Have you ever felt that sinking feeling when a beloved show, game, or movie just doesn't live up to the hype? That moment when the credits roll or the final boss is defeated, and you're left wondering, "Is that it?" We've all been there, and in this episode of the Nerd Byword, we dive deep into the heart of disappointment.
In episode 178, we tackle the biggest letdowns we've faced in nerd media. We're talking about the games that promised worlds of adventure but delivered lackluster experiences, the movies that promised epic narratives but fell flat, and the comics that took bold steps forward only to retreat back to the status quo.
