I very rarely if ever play games outside of my comfort zone. I haven't played 80 percent of /v/'s favorites and the only indie game I've ever played was Castle Crashers.

I also spend most of my time playing games I've already played. I have 3,500 hours in TF2 as a result, though I dropped it a few weeks ago for good.

The Last of Us, Ocarina of Time, and Half-Life 2 are my top 3 of all time.

Human Revolution is one of my all time favorites, but I have no intention of playing the original. I find it horribly outdated.

I despise the Sonic franchise. .

I’ve never played a Souls game because they seem far too frustrating and I play video games to relax.

I use a guide for every Zelda game to make sure I see everything.

I got into Overwatch because I found Tracer cute. I'm pretty bad at the game, so I end up playing Lucio most of the time so I can escape blame if we end up losing and it's easy to gain commendations. I also talk shit to my team whenever that happens. I still sometimes play Tracer because she’s very fun.

Monster Hunter is good for a loser like me. My life is empty and I'm lonely with no accomplishments to be proud of. It feels good to finally get all the parts you need to upgrade your weapon or make your new armor set. It's like an IV drip trickling a small sense of achievement into my wasted life.

I have bought every single Dark Souls game but have not got pass the first area/few areas in any of them. In Dark Souls I didn't know where to go and kept on getting killed by skeletons so I quit, in Dark Souls 2 I figured out where to go but didn't get an estus flask early on so I kept on getting my ass kicked so I gave up, in Dark Souls 3 I couldn't get past the tutorial boss. I have no idea what they were thinking making the first boss that fucking difficult. Not to mention the the controls are slow, boring and archaic as fuck. I thought the games would be like super-hard DMC combat open world games.

I main capos in Tekken and spammed and lag-switched my way to Toshin on Tekken Revolution and Vanquisher in TTT2.

I have 3 VAC bans on Steam. One of them is recent (caught using LMAObox).

I find RPGs to be the most boring genre ever. I don't see the point for grinding for hours and leveling up to boost up numbers that don't change much. Oh, and the gameplay is typically awful too.

>>341719930
>I thought the games would be like super-hard DMC combat

Games like DMC can have complex combat because the environment doesn't really play a role, even if the visuals change you are more often than not fighting in a decent sized flat arena which opens up room for lots of combos.
In Souls however the enviromnet plays a much larger role, you are often fighting in cramped environments, there are traps, sheer drops etc, this means that simple combat is all that is really possible, you hit hard and so do the enemies, there is no need for long combo's and they would most likely hinder gameplay, im not saying there isn't need to have a little more variety in combat in Souls but you can't compare them to games like DMC and Bayonetta, they are vastly different.
>>
>>341719970
Why the fuck do plebs say this? No, the gameplay was not good. The gameplay consisted of doing the same 3 objectives over and over again with some thin plot dressing in a completely empty open world. The controls are generic TPS controls with a bit more weight behind it. I know it would have been hard to implement the old control scheme into an open world but I would prefer it so much more the the generic system we have now.

it also took out all of the skill of MGO. You actually had to get good at MGO2 to even do moderately well. You needed to have almost inhuman reflexes and a mastery over the controls. MGO3 is a shitfest where host wipes the floor with everyone and its more about who lock onto their head with the insane aim assist first and fires. Oh, also the maps suck in MGO3. They're all way too large.

Unironically, Nintendo won this E3, which actually says a lot about absolute shit state of gaming industry. No orchestral beatboxing will save Sony from Crash remaster and Skylanders appearance :^)
>>
>>341720997
It was very responsive, didn't use reflex mode or aim assist and I was still able to consistently deal with unexpected things happening, only issue I had was standing up sometimes when I didn't want to and a small 3rd person fov which made seeing enemies around corners difficult (this was needed without x ray). You spend the majority of the game observing and infiltrating bases to kill, capture or steal something, that is a perfect core to build an open world stealth game on and it provided me with enjoyment from start to finish, I wasn't looking for some weird mission to mix things up because in my mind I was just playing as a special forces guy in a vast barren country sneaking around.
I think most people used x ray, reflex, 3d markers etc and got bored with the missions, which is understandable but if you played the game from start to finish without them you probably would have had a far more immersive, tense and rewarding experience.

I agree. I hate how Nintendo wins just by presenting 1 game. This isn't the first time this has happened, either. Imagine if Sony and Microsoft were actually good and actually tried to give their consoles a solid game library. I wish Nintendo had to make 2 or 3 games a year instead of 1.

It's not shooting the guy in the head it's how you get to that point and out of the situation you dope, you could reduce every most games to killing/incapacitating someone if you wanted to.

Did you play Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker? Those are the two most overrated Zeldas, and they fit your description. You should play Twilight Princess. It has better combat and puzzles than the others.

Hitman, Deus Ex HR and MGS4, I'm not a big fan of the genre I admit but MGSV is definitely the first open world stealth game and it nailed it imo...or am I not having fun right?

>helicopters
Is this a joke post? How is riding on a helicopter meant to be challenging or interesting in any way? You literally sit there and wait. In MGSV the environments were open so you could basically incapacitate any guard as soon as you saw them, other stealth games put you in tight spaces where you won't have line of sight on the guards, or limit your arsenal so you can't just deal with obstacles by shooting them - you actually have to sneak around instead.

>or am I not having fun
I don't know why you're here if you think all games discussion is boiled down to "I had fun" or "I didn't have fun"

Heli gets you near the objective, christ. It's open world to allow for multiple areas of infiltration but then you bitch because sometimes you have to travel from one area to the next (even with a heli to help you), well you cant have an open world and not sometimes have to travel.
Then you observe, mark, remember patterns, move in. Some guards have helmets or armour etc. Unless you had x ray on then I understand why you didn't find it challenging.

>you bitch because sometimes you have to travel from one area to the next
Yeah, because the travelling isn't interesting at all when there's no obstacles in your way. If they used the same style of "open base" from GZ it would've been good. Using the helicopter is just waiting

>Then you observe, mark, remember patterns, move in
There's no reason to do that when you can just snipe every guy in the head from range.

minimap mongo, you use it to check positions, you played the game on baba mode then got upset that it got boring, also other than a few exposed outposts you cant just headshot everyone and not expect alarms and reinforcements, also helemts you dip. I guess you could technically just roll up in a tank or call in airstrikes if you want, not exactly stealthy though.

I do often complain about censorship in threads for games I'm not even interested in. I just really hate censorship on principle. I think it is in no way fair for another person to dictate what is appropriate for me and alter the product to censor it before I can buy it.

Exactly, the game doesn't incentivise your playstyle at all, congrats on wasting dozens of hours of your life

I have 4.9k hours of Dota 2, which I honestly don't even regret because it journey to getting 5000 MMR points was fun (stayed at 5.2k)
I have resigned from playing Dota 2 to not become a completely mono player
I have spent 200 hours on Elite Dangerous unironically and enjoy it massively
Whenever I can in games, I turn off the music and put my own on, hence why i fucking love Dota and Elite Dangerous
I have actually deleted games from my steam account that I am ashamed of, like Bad Rats and Secret of the Magic Crystal.
The only game that has come close to hour count on Dota 2 for me was probably Oblivion on Xbox 360 back in 2006.

rate me lads did i do good

If your shit game only gets good when you make up self imposed challenges, it's still a shit game.
>>
>>341725716
dude you need another hobby, to me it sounds like you are literally getting too old for this hobby, you dont find new games fun generally, you have a backlog of ridiculous proportion and you only enjoy old games which, like you said only put 20 hours a week into, which is fuckin nothing.

>hmm maybe I wont use the chicken hat and kill everyone in a tank because im meant to be as stealthy as possible and the former sounds retarded, i might also turn off a few obvious crutches to deepen my immersion in the game

If you haven't already I'd start reading, it will allow you to appreciate games more and not look to them for good stories etc because that's already covered.

It's not a pure stealth game, for one it's open world and two there are obvious crutches you can turn off to make it more challenging, you played with see everyone through a wall mode then cried that it was easy, well no shit.
>>
>>341726967
Thanks but I hate reading desu and stories aren't really the issue. The real issue is the lack of "real content". Most devs think their ideas will stay fresh during 30h of gameplay but it usually get stale in less than 10. Games should either be short or use/offer new ideas/things until the very last moment.

>I got whipped up in the PC elitism storm as a teenager, built my own PC and played all the games, bought in the steam sales and became a huge contrarian memer like most people here.

So all that shit you just wrote about the game forcing you to think strategically in order to infiltrate bases was a bunch of garbage. The stealth breaks once you give the player that much power because getting caught ceases to be a failure state, instead it just means that you have to play a TPS for a few minutes

>, you played with see everyone through a wall mode
A "mode" that was enabled from the start, and the option to turn it off was probably hidden in a menu somewhere, not in a difficulty selection at the beginning. The obviously intended for the player to use that feature, otherwise it would've been disabled by default and given away as an optional difficulty modifier like the chicken hat.

Never played any games from these series:
Mario
Smash
Yoshi
Metroid
Zelda
GTA
Resident Evil
Silent Hill
Pokemon
Monster Hunter
Call of Duty
Battlefield
Pre-Oblivion TES
Fallout
God of War
Devil May Cry
Quake

I really dislike The Witcher games, I don't know why

Gameplay feels clunky, artstyle tries to be dark yet uses a mlp color palette, characters' personalities feel like "forced neutral" and the dialogue reminds me of midschool humor.

The ability to call in a tank does not mean the core game design doesn't accomodate being stealthy, again not a "pure" stealth game but it's easily played that way, the most clear way the game actually tells dipshits your not being very stealthy is a rank but you play the game the way you want imo ranks are for people trying to perfect a playthrough. Yes you can shoot your way out because the game is about getting the job done as stealthily as possible but if you get caught you have to deal with the situation like a real operative would.

I noticed how unbelivably OP the mode was since GZ (as well as slow mo) and this is only my second MGS game, every game I play I at least look into how to alter settings as to not have to play the whole game with a fucked up feature, call that self imposed limitations but im still not going to sit through a shit experience because it's just how the game started out.
>>
>>341729167
>not a "pure" stealth game but it's easily played that way
And it offers no incentive to do that, it's doing the opposite by making the play style more difficult and giving you tons of overpowered weapons and tools to play around with. Quiet breaks the game for example, I'm not even sure if it's possible to get caught with her covering you.

>most clear way the game actually tells dipshits your not being very stealthy is a rank
You get the highest rank by sprinting to your objective

>if you get caught you have to deal with the situation
I'm saying that the tension and incentive to sneak is lost because you can easily gun down bases full of troops
>like a real operative would
Are you seriously trying to pretend that the game is realistic?

>call that self imposed limitations
Okay, it's horrible game design too
>>
>>341728497
The fact you've managed to avoid all those series is actually impressive if anything. You're really missing out though.
