Also, I used to play traditional Fighting games (think Tekken or Street Fighter style games) and I used to like them, but nowadays I wouldn't. Maybe it's just me, but I feel like Fighting games take a lot of practice to get really good at them since you have to memorize move combos and the like and what each character's strengths and weaknesses are.

... Unfortunately, this reason is pretty much why I sold my copy of DBFZ. :c
 
Oh now that you mentioned those I used to play the Naruto ones like... a loooong time ago but I haven't played any of them since like the early Shippuden ones. I can't remember which one I liked more (I think it was the Ultimate Ninja series??) maybe one day I'll go back and play a later version and see how it holds up to me hahah. It's been soo long since I've only been playing like visual novel games and jrpgs.
 
Tower Defense. Couldn't get enough as a kid, but now I just find them incredibly tedious.
 
I wouldn't say I hate the genre now but I don't seem to have the attention span to play sports management sims these days, they were my favourites growing up. The stories that those spreadsheet games create is honestly something else.
 
^ I can see where this is coming from. I feel like in order to really get super addicted and into RPGs, you'd have to set aside hours and hours for the sake of the level grind. To me, I don't mind it and I like it (plus I like having some sort of feeling of stat progression/growth), but I can understand if others don't have that kind of time to do that.
 
My RPG sessions nowadays consist of me opening the game and intending to play it for like an hour or so, blinking once and suddenly I've played 15 hours straight of it, I get obsessed for a few weeks then deny its existence for a month, rinse and repeat.

Since when did my gaming life become so unhealthy........
 
i'm like the opposite, all i play lately are rpgs. it doesn't even have to necessarily be me sitting down for like three days straight doing it, idk. i just wanna see my favorite characters doing shit so i'm always playing. i've been replaying birth by sleep lately and just goofing off melding commands and losing on the command board and it's a good time for like an hour or so and i do something else. though that's replaying. admittedly, i keep putting off starting persona Q2 bc i'm like. i don't feel like getting locked into it rn.

but that's largely my own personal thing where i can't seem to focus on too many series at a time? i'm on a big kingdom hearts kick lately and i don't want to play anything other than KH. anyone else have that problem? like i literally was on a solid persona streak for like a year and a half or so bc i didn't want to...get out of the mood, for lack of a better phrase?
 
I can only enjoy FPS games if I'm griefing other players. I may not troll forums anymore but teamkilling people in video games then listening to their rage and threats will never stop being funny to me. :laugh-squinted:
 
A friendly tip then: Never let team killers know how annoyed you are over voice chat. It'll only lead to them targeting you specifically lol.
 
I mean thats common sense tbh. They're after reactions of others.

At least in Siege when you get TK'd you can just screw them over so that they cant hit any teammates or the damage gets reflected to them.
Accidental ones do not get such penalty, but the choice is given by the one that got TK'd
 
You'd be surprised how many people lack that common sense though. That's why channels like GeneralMinus were able to blow up in popularity.

Ah the ricochet effect. I think one of the newer COD games tried implementing that. It was the last time I bought a COD outside of the MW remaster.
 
The only reason I wasn't big on Splatoon is because I wanted some sort of training or practice mode where I can get used to things and apparently that isn't a thing in Splatoon 2...? I just wasn't fond of how you have to be thrusted immediately into online and I didn't want to embarrass myself lol ;_;
 
Oh man, really? I guess Smash Ultimate does things better in that regard. I also don't like that you need the paid online service to really get the meat of games like these. But I'm still willing to try it. I feel like being a noob when I get thrown right into it is part of what I'm bound to experience anyway, as an FPS greenhorn.
 
I could be wrong, though! Perhaps I wasn't looking hard enough, but I couldn't find any free for all option where I could just do turf wars with the AI or anything like that. Perhaps I'll get into it again and get a feel of where everything is, but I haven't found any sort of option for that, yet.

Smash Ultimate is better in a way because at the very least, if I feel rusty, I can always jump back in and fight LV. 9 AIs until I feel like I'm not complete garbage lmao.
