2012 was a bit worse because all the bad parts of the 360/PS3 gen were coming to a head, in addition to the hardware stagnating because gens used to be shorter. Also, I was in the later part of that year already seeing the downslide into press outlets getting more annoyingly political in articles that later gave way to gamergate.
2020 was also bad just because the pandemic made enough people act like retards across the spectrum, especially the devs themselves. Also personally had my job hours cut, and my savings halved over the course of the next 2 years. Still at least got some good games from smaller studios though.

Don't wanna search up every game for every year so I'll just take a shortcut and say any year that doesn't have a Resident Evil, Fallout, Elder Scrolls, GTA, Ratchet and Clank could be one of the worse years of gaming. Although Stellar Blade, Space Marine 2, and Rebirth were great so 2024 doesn't count. Half Life 1/2, Starcraft 1.2, Witcher 3, FFIV to FFX, Warcraft 3, Dishonored 1/2, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and Twilight Princess were also good games. Worse year would be any year that doesn't include the games I mentioned.

There were certainly no classics in 2014. I recall completely running out of ideas at one point and forcing myself through Dragon Age Inquisition - some decent parts to it though to be fair.
Shadow of Mordor was probably the high point and Unity was the low - what a broken mess.
Then 2015 came along… and totally redeemed itself!
Arkham Knight
Bloodborne
Witcher 3
MGS V
Syndicate
Starcraft II
Until Dawn
What a year!
Which clowns voted 2011 by the way - Dark Souls, Skyrim, Portal 2, Arkham City, LA Noire, Minecraft, Uncharted 3, that Star Wars MMO etc etc
