Is that a parody? Isn’t Castlevania: Symphony of the Night famous because of its god awful menu screen that was literally a placeholder and they forgot or didn’t have time to change it?
I too was there 3000 years ago and there was a lot of shit AAA games even back them. For one there was a lot of bad habits from the arcade time that made a lot of gameplay suboptimal. I think that it is just survivorship bias because the 90% not great is forgotten with time and we only remember the great games.
But all of that is beside the point, how can you put Fez and Slenderman in the same group? Fez is a great game, there is no lower quality in any aspect of it. In fact in modern games I see more experimentation and innovation in Indie titles and almost none in AAA because they are so expensive they have to always play it safe (same shit happening with the film industry by the way).

Suggesting Symphony of the Night is well-known because of a goofy menu screen is almost comically missing the forest for the trees.
Ok, I reread my comment, sorry, it is my bad, English is not my first language and I should have proof read it. I will edit my original comment.
What I meant was that The menu in Symphony of the Night is famously bad, not that the game is known for or only because of its bad menu.
Now I’m wondering what games are known for their menus lol, maybe Eve Online?
For some reason only games with bad UI comes to mind, like Skyrim.
