Least favorite vg genre and why?
| Fighting. I get bored quickly without an environment to explore or a sense of in-game progression.
| MOBAs probably. Kinda for the same reasons as >>235482 , I guess. Also because it's a lot of mindless repetition without a tangible goal in sight.
| Those trashy farmville style "wait an hour or pay me money to progress in this game with no point, but we both know you're too impatient to find a better game so just gimme that $$$ stupid" games.
| >>b2313a I get that but the progreseion in fighters is your own skill. It's very rewarding to see yourself improve, read your opponent and just get gud in general.
| I'm fine with most genres except shoot 'em ups or bullet hell games. That's just because I really bad at them.

I feel this way but fighters are one of my favorite genres because of what
>>235765 said.
In mobas I feel like all there is to it is game knowledge and teamwork(lol) I don't really feel any sense of personal improvement.
| I really appreciate fighters from a conceptual standpoint, but I just can't get into them at all. Too little motivation to get good.
Probably going to go with MOBAs or competitive FPS games. I don't get the former and I suck real bad at the latter.
| I never liked RTS games. I always forget like half my army is over there. Oops they got flanked. Oops I lost.
| >>236179 the problem here is people have this wrong impression that they must be good at the game to have fun with it.
| >>236589
Its all about mindset. If you view your defeat as a means to learn and get better from someone who's better than you then you'll never have a bad time. And it makes the moment when you finally git gud all the sweeter.
| Hack n slash games and fighting games aren't great. Basically anything with combos outside of quicktime events because I'm a casual lol
| "Simulator" games. Most of them are low effort garbage. Anything with a year in the title.
| >FPS and anything multiplayer only games
Literally playing the same shit over and over again, no story, no progression. "Skill" is developed overtime but so does the player's ego. Pro players cry like a baby when FPS is drop below 120 or when little lag happens.
>Visual Novel
Ok, Va11-Hall-A is the oasis in the middle of VN barren desert. Other VNs are mostly poorly written and paced wish fulfillment for lonely otaku or horny teenagers.
| >Action/slash and hack games
If done lazily, this is more mind numbing than your average dungeon crawler games. Bonus point for having Quick Time Events.
| Sports simulators.
| P2W titles
| >>236508 it's more that I don't find the general gameplay of some things fun enough to enjoy my personal development. So I get why people enjoy it but I'm no good and don't care enough to get better.
I have fun with bullet hell games despite not being really all that good at them.
| >>237152
Same. Been playing Toohoo on and off for years, even though I still haven't beaten a single game even on normal.
| >>235500
I agree, MOBA is a genre that i don't understand why people still play it. A casual genre where there is no progression AT ALL.
| MOBA and racing
also whatever genre the Survival/Crafting/Early-Access bullshit that is popular nowadays
|
| Surcival games like DayZ I gues, just like >>a59841 described them. Probably because they tend to get stuck in beta with little chance of getting out of it.
| Racing, i suck at those and normally i get bored or at least on the tradicional ones, when they put a spin on them like burnout where crashing its actualy important they seem better
| I don't like shooters. Despite that, I still buy them and play them with friends.
| Mobile cool down centric shite and modern ball/sports game$--way too samey and needy.
| Definitely Mobas, but I give a pass for Fractured Space because it's fun.
Too bad it's pretty dead.
| turn based rpgs are way too boring for me, the only turn based game i remotely enjoyed was pokemon but that's because the game is super fucking easy
| Battle royale games. They're awful
| >>240959
Have you tried any Mario&Luigi games? Those aren't as boring since the combat is a bit more involved, plus dialogue/cutscenes are charming and funny.
| Puzzle games like Tetris. I never gain satisfaction from matching up blocks or whatever
| Walking simulators and the telltale style of games they barely have any game play. People say they're more story focused but most (if not) all the time the story's are poorly written (or just bad) oh and the choices rarely ever matter
