    Just as the title suggests, are there any video games that you play that you can't for the life of you to be good at, but you're still encouraged to play them because you feel that they're generally fun, addicting games? Share any ideas. :3

    For example I'm so bad at Blazblue games but oh gods do I want to learn to play em' better because they're pretty amazingggg. ;__;
     
    Definitely the Battlefield series. I'm absolutely horrendous at it compared to say, Call of Duty - I can't fly a jet for my life - but I really like the idea of different classes so you can maximize the game to your playing style, and it's incredibly fun to play with friends as there seems to be a lot more strategy to it. I love being the engineer class and repairing tanks and such; I find a lot more fun in supporting my friends than actually doing the run-n'-gunning.
     
    I'm pretty bad at FIFA, but am managing to get used to everything. Not such a huge soccer fan, but I still love the game, anyway; it's fun. Aside from that, another would be Battlefield. I'd quit playing it for a while, but recently, I've gotten back; so far, I'm enjoying it a lot. It's almost like Call of Duty, but with more of a slow-placed gameplay style and freedom, allowing you travel wherever you choose within the map. Terrible at it right now, but am getting better bit-by-bit. n_n;;
     
    Oh, I originally thought this was genre-centric, not series :P To be honest, I never enjoy games that I'm bad at because they constantly make me beyond frustrated to the point where I rage quit, and never touch the game from then on. If I had to pick one, I think it would be BioShock Infinite; I wasn't terrible at it, but not extraordinary either. Regardless though, I would replay it because it was an interesting game although the switching between powers confused me during gameplay @-@
     
    CoD. :I

    Everyone loves it, I hate it, but I want to play it because everyone else plays it, and all I can do is run around and knife people because I suck with guns. But hey, I can go 30-0 with a knife in a game. If you make me use a gun though I'll be getting at most like 20-3 on a good day.
     
    The goalie position on NHL 14's multiplayer. I'm way to impatient and aggressive. I always find myself being caught outside my crease and over reading plays. I let in at least 4 goals a game and pretty much get cussed out by my team every single time I play, but I love playing it.
     
    Fighting games, I guess... I'm not good at quick combo combinations :/

    Pretty much my feels.

    I'll try. I'm pretty good with most genres, so with most games I pick up it's more a matter of getting the buttons down. If I'm not particularly good at it, chances are I just won't bother with it anymore.
    I can't even think of any exceptions.. Except maybe L4D and L4D2. That might count; I've only ever played it with the bots because I have no friends to play it with so I've never really had a spectacular run of that game. I'll never beat it on Expert by myself, anyway. But I lived all by myself, and that was enough for me to enjoy it the few times I played, haha.
     
    League of Legends

    Yeah i suck at it, mostly because idk what the hell I am doing, so I mostly play with friends cause then at least the dark and violent community won't murder you for being a idiot ;-;

    The game is a lot of fun though, except when... well the dark side of the community gets you D:

    Completely agree. I love the game and like most people I was terrible at it in the beginning. The only reason I kept playing was because my friends would and asked me to join them. I remember quitting the game and uninstalling for a few months. Later on my friends dragged me back over there and since then I've been playing. Yeah I'm not as good as some people, but I've gotten better.

    This is what I came in here to say. When I played, I was bad but enjoyed it. Then I stopped playing because I knew my friends were angry gamers, the type that got mad if they lost and looked for someone to blame it on, so I didn't want to play with them - but then I had no one to play with and it was lonely. I never even played ranked so I didn't know how good I was but probably not at all.
     
    Just Dance. I always seem to get OK's and Good's a lot, and gold moves are out of the question. :p I watch my other friends play the game, and they get really high scores - but when my turn comes, you probably know what happens. I'm also pretty bad at GTA IV, at least driving a car. Mario Kart seems to be the only car game I'm decent at. xD

    I'm not particularly an expert with fighting games either, but button mashing has worked quite nicely for me XD

    Yeah, I had my moments where I really wanted to play LoL, but I only played amongst my friends considering how rude the rest of the community can be from what I've been told D: Maybe one day I'll work through strategies, and actually learn how to become a decent player because it was an enjoyable, and addicting game during those 10 games that I played several months back XD
     
    Well, I've got kind of a weird case. I'm not terrible at fighting games, but I don't really care for them. I wish I did, though, because there are some fighting games I'm interested in, like Melty Blood (I'm a fan of nasuverse stuff, read Tsukihime and Kagetsu Tohya and liked both, not to mention Fate series stuff) and some of the Touhou fighting games.

    The big thing though is I don't like just typical 1v1 kind of brawler games, which is what most fighting games are. That kind of simplistic, repetitive gameplay isn't interesting at all to me.


    As for games I'm bad at, I can't really think of any. I tend to be pretty good at video games. Maybe RTS, I'm passable at them purely by virtue of experience but I'm not the best multitasker, which really hurts. I either over-focus on micro or over-focus on macro, I can't really juggle them well.

    All racing games. I never get turns right, rarely even in Mario Kart games.

    I've always been a natural with racing games, and I'm not entirely sure why. But when I see my friends struggle with the basic concept of accelerating, and drifting, I always wonder what it's like for them XD Probably as frustrating as it would be for me when I'm playing shooting games.
     
    Hmm... I'd have to say Starcraft. I just love this game, though I'm really not that good at it. Though I guess you couldn't say I suck at it, I'm just really new to it.
     
    EVERY. FREAKING. PLATFORMER. I am terrible at them, yet I continue to buy them and try my best to play them. YES. This even includes my beloved Jak and Daxter. I'm even bad at that. :( I live a sad, pathetic life.

    to be fair though, no one is good at jak II i mean let's be real.
