The ragdoll physics revolution was televised, and it did not go well. But, honestly, almost 30 years later, the big irritants must’ve been fixed or something, because I non-sarcastically really like this game.
From Wikipedia :
Before the release of the game, it was announced that Trespasser would revolutionize PC gaming. However, reviews after release were mostly negative. Trespasser was a critical and commercial failure, selling about 50,000 copies.
