I hate action games, first person games, and anything focused around player versus player. Baldur's Gate 3 might be the one game that I actually buy because Larian has a really solid track record in my eyes after playing Divinity OS2. My funs been ruined one too many times. Jaded, yes. I do enjoy fun, I just have so little time that it's hard to balance work, browsing the web and actually playing games. I tend to play games that I can play wile browsing or watching videos. RedPixel posted... I feel the same thing sometimes... I think games are noticeably bad now because you have a lot of corporate junk trying to disguise themselves as art, and it's incredibly easy to get fooled into it-- it might take you 1, 5, 10, or 20 hours into your game before you realize everything is really cheaply budgeted for, sloppy, has zero replayability value, etc.-- and you feel like a fool for wasting your time and money. One of my biggest things is a repetitive gameplay loop. Great example of this is in the game Silent HIll: Shattered Memories which basically comprised as running in a specific direction and jumping over obstacles. Environments looked different but the gameplay loop got boring after the first 5 minutes and the entire game was sloppy. Every game I play has very obvious gameplay loops like that but usually a lot less extreme. RedPixel posted... In my opinion, older games were mostly art (out of love as opposed to money grab games/rushed/poor design intended for a quick sell) and it generated a lot more school conversation because the internet hadn't been much more than dial-up yet. I agree with this 100% --- Judge, Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. You're a regular Jack Kerouac ... Copied to Clipboard! |
