i have major problems with the camera in tomb raider underworld
Earthworm Jim 3D's camera was sent here by the devil. it is a device of some hellish miscreation.
feeling the pain of Kingdom Hearts' camera rn
Silent Hill 2's is notoriously difficult to grasp
I'm playing the enhanced edition, but even with the improved camera its still a pain, and my condolences for the people who played the original
Resident Evil 6 also has an awful camera which made me feel really motion sick for several hours and has a lot of camera bugs, so that's also a good contender

It's low hanging fruit, but Bubsy 3D has my favorite camera in the history of video games, it follows right behind you like a racing game, but if you get hit by anything it decides to swing around to show you Bubsy's overly-designed and polygon'd up face EVERY single time.
They loved their work so much, they couldn't help but let the player know how good Bubsy's face looked every single time they fucked up. It's marvelous.

Bayonetta 3 was almost unbearable
I found Wind Waker's camera to be pretty annoying
Shadow of the Colossus’s camera isn’t that bad
@Teshena It's a subjective list, there's no "true" right or wrong. I personally didn't like how Shadow of the Colossus' camera handled, so it's on here.
I have never experienced a worse fixed camera than that of Castleween. I was almost impressed how they somehow chose the worst angle for every situation imaginable.
Maybe not necessarily worst, but it was very surprising to me that MediEvil 2’s camera is significantly worse than the first despite giving you complete control of the right stick as opposed to just using L2/R2.

Sonic Adventure my beloved!
If multiple games from one series is OK for the list, I feel like Monster Hunter 1's camera is probably the worst one in the franchise. Not only do you have to use The Claw for it, it tends to get stuck everywhere, including super small things like branches. It also likes to get kinda "cinematic" at times in the worst ways possible, which makes Forest and Hills' area 9 one of the worst areas in any 3D game I ever played lmao
i can pretend i don't see SMS on here but seriously when is it ever a problem in wind waker
I love Nocturne (the Terminal Reality one) but I will not pretend the fixed angles in that are good for a moment
Epic Mickey 1 and 2
Vehemently disagree with some of these, but you included Sonic Adventure so all is forgiven.
@essemkato ask the person that recommended it, not Lem
@NOWITSREYNTIME17 don't tell me what to do
Bubsy 3d is a Masterpiece.
Sounds more like a skill problem to me.

I dont know what the issue with Silent Hill 2 camera is. Most of the time it just sits in a fixed position anyway or you just a press a button and it gets locked behind James. Its not something you ever have to worry about.
I feel like this list could use more 2D games.
Tails Adventure belongs in here.
Tails Adventure belongs in here.
Accurate.
I hope that whoever at Square mapped the Kingdom Hearts camera control to L2 and R2 got fired on the spot
pokemon x and y has the mythically awful lumiose city camera of course
Watch Dogs game me more motion sickness than gameplay
The camera in Jet Set Radio and Sonic Frontiers make me want to die, which they frequently assist me with.
My main suggestion for this would have to be The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard. Unlike all of the other Elder Scrolls game it’s a third person Tomb Raider clone that’s PC exclusive. But the game doesn’t have mouse support, so you can’t adjust at all and the auto camera is absolutely terrible and constantly gets stuck on the environment.
