What are your triggers for not playing a game? Things like gameplay/genre/design/etc.

fuck i love that movie
its the perfect kind of fucking retarded
>>331579176
i havn't seen that movie in so long.... i still find it funny that its joey from friends behind that mask.
>moba like elements
>Early access sandbox game
It's never going to get finished
>The trailer features whimsical classic fantasy setting
They're devoid of any imagination, the gameplay is going to be a stale piece of shit
>The trailer runs below 30fps
This is often seen in those indie games where not even the dev can record the game running at decent framerate, holy fuck
>>331579176
It doesn't keep me from playing but it triggers the shit out of me when a PC port prompts you to press buttons from the controller instead of the keys you actually have the action mapped to.

Early-Access.
Bioware.
Modern military FPS.
Survival game.
RTS, or any strategy at all.
And the only one that I'm actually ashamed of: RPGs where the focus is on party management and not roleplaying a single character. As in you don't "play" a character, just a party.
>>331579176
Advertised as a cinematic experience.
If I wanted one, I'd go watch a movie dammit.
>>331579176
If we're talking about a game I've never played before:
>WRPG (face it, they're vanilla and blow ass in general)
>JRPG (if it's come out in the last 5 or so years)
>sandbox ("wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle", the genre)
>FPS (if it's 16 years old or younger anyway)
>"we wanted the (insert generalization here) audience" (yeah no, I don't want to play anything geared towards THAT specific of an audience. Sorry)
If I've played it befpore:
>games with a "THAT part" of any kind (if it has a "casual filter" or just a slow and shitty part, then count me out!)
>games that take forever to get going (mostly RPGs, but anything that takes 10 hours for me to get all of the gameplay elements up and running)
>super plot driven games that don't let you skip scenes (no. Just, no...)
That's about it for me.
>>331579176
If it's on steam and it has less than a rating of "Overwhelmingly Positive" its pretty much guaranteed to be shit.
>Adventure
>Walking Simulator
>Early Access
>Story Rich
Anime.

This. I refuse to even pirate any EA/Ubi/Acti games purely out of principle.
Anything Esports or trying to go after Esports audiences. Anything MOBA. Early Access.
>>331579176
If any of the devs has a hair color different from normal human people
>>331581959
Not saying the game is great, but I never got people saying this. Nothing SJW related ever happens in the game.
>>331579176
weboo shit, big swords, pedo faces, faggot names weboo shit just triggers me
>>331579545
>activision
they literally did nothing wrong and stopped pumping out annual games because the market died
Ubi/EA however forgot to take note and carried on
>>331584789
Activision's only crime ever was that they pumped out CoD games every year.
CoD has actually had a surprising spike in quality however, and Kotick is an excellent business man who properly knows his shit and the gaming industry. Dude makes calls on shit and knows when to step in or back out.
>>331579176
If its weebshit in any way aside from that anything goes.
I've never been much of an RPG guy but I've dropped a few games for letting me into an area with extremely high level enemies while myself was just beginning the game. I think things are like are gay and frustrating.
>>331585128
Funny you choose a FF pic. This is the reason I dislike VII onwards, but I feel the earlier games didn't have it nearly as much.
>>331585050
You're forgetting that Ess Jay Double-U is the hot new boogeyman that people on /v/ repeat when they don't like something relatively popular or different. It doesn't have anything to do with the actual content of something. Kinda like whenever people on here tell anyone they disagree with to go back to Redit.
For some reason my attempt to explain this is spam, so I had to use idiotic spellings of words.
Bad optimization, graphical glitches and general instability. God nothing puts me off a game faster than having to fuck around for half an hour to make it run well.

That's because they were, as you said, "literally Ultima".

Platinum games. Not only are they no where good as they used to be, but every fucker always says some shit like "My dream game is based on X and made by Platinum!"
I can't fucking stand fantasy. Except Witcher.

Neat, I didn't know there was a word for that.
Thanks.
It was the framerate but I'm currently playing Ocarina at 20fps so.
I think the DLC, Season Pass, etc, like most of the titles of

>OPEN WORLD FILLED WITH ACTIVITIES
Depends
In general
>Ridiculous difficulty spikes, they can be done well but usually it ends up something turning into a damage sponge that can ohko in return
>lots of grinding, particularly in single player games. I don't mind a little farming but when you need rare specific parts to upgrade something to make it effective it's a real turn off
>shitty crafting systems like Freedom Wars
>stealth portions in non-stealth games
3-DS
>generally prefer strategy/turnbased game
>dislike almost every fighting/action 3DS game the screen is just too small, my hands are too big, resolution too shitty making things hard to follow.
