that's not pinball
wish i was good enough to enjoy these types of games

What do you think the good players just got 2 alls and high scores on their first attempt? You can't be good at these games, you have to get good.
>>345395956
you can be if you want to!
you just have to practice them
>>345395956
You just need practice anon
>>345395826
>any genre
>good
video games are shit
Shmups are great because they're just the most core concepts in video games refined and pushed to their limits
No gimmicky movement, no combos, no lock on, no nothing, just move around the screen and shoot shit without getting shot

You can be! Just pick one of the easier ones and enjoy those.

Pinball and Shmups have been two of my favorite genres recently.
They aren't huge time sinks so you can enjoy them without a huge commitment, and they don't have huge grinds associated so the only progression is actually you getting better at the game.

What part of that post implies anything against score?
>>345398056
Scoring typically involves all sorts of different gimmicks
>>345398658
Gimmicks added on top of the core gameplay, no gimmicks as the core gameplay like the kind of stuff that has to exist in a lot of 3D games and more modernized genres

>no gimmicky movement
Unless you count timestop or slow.
Otherwise you're talking about the primitive/traditional shmup like Twin Cobra, Raiden, R-type, Darius, etc.
