Literally black people play fighting games. If you are too retarded to learn that you are too retarded to live.

It's made me realize that I don't mind my relatively linear, story driven, more basic RPGs.

There's that stupid fucking meme again.

Hello Armored Core

I really hope that's not Xenoblade Chronicles X because that will raise legitimate concerns about your mental capacity.
For me it's grand strategy or 4x games.
I love the concepts of them but just can't get into them because I suck at time management
>pc game library actually requires an iq higher than 80 to enjoy

I should've stuck to cinematic experiences on consoles.

>any RTS, even just singleplayer mode
>anything remotely to do with rhythm
>>337409549
i agree with him.
That game introduces SO MUCH FUCKING SHIT to you at once compared to Xenoblade Chronicles. And it's throwing so much shit at you that you're not even sure what to remember. and then they try to get deep and complex with materials and what not.
It's too fucking much.
>>337410183
You've got a two fucking manuals. If you really can't remember such simple things, read.

i couldn't play either because i'm too dumb to understand space games and all the micromanagement needed to run a ship and travel star systems
>>337408901
Knights in the Nightmare.
Devs had to put out an hour long tutorial video for it.
>>337409273
>do pretty gud at SFIV even though i know zero combos

>still can't pull them off in the moment of online play
what's the point, even if I git gud at combos I'll just be an omega no life neckbeard with nothing to show for it. I rather be learning an instrument or a language than do this shit. I guess the only winning move is to not play at all and stay a scrub.
>>337409526
My experience with grand strat and civ to a lesser extent.
Multiplayer is still good though for grand strat.

You play videogames because they are fun.
If you are having fun, then that is productive.
You are creating your own enjoyment.
Nothing is more important!
>deep gameplay mechanics
That's nugamerspeak for "shit gameplay."
>>337408815
>>337408901
>Civilization Games
>Dwarf Fortress
>Any 4X strategy game
It's so annoying. They just dump an entire book of rules and instructions and the fucking stupid developers don't know how to create a proper tutorial? Jesus Christ.

>game mechanics are incredibly fun to mess around with

>>337409347
Any idiot can learn fighting game mechanics, its more of a motivation issue than an intelligence issue.
>>337412473
Wise words fampai.
>>337410968
One day I will play this game, but fuck I hate reading
>>337410968
>Knights in the Nightmare is a strategy-shooter role-playing game hybrid from Sting Entertainment
>>337410540
Usually I'd agree with you, but they're not completely wrong. XCX throws a lot of shit at you in the beginning so it takes awhile to get used to everything.
It doesn't help that some of the shit isn't even explained well. I remember when the game came out and I saw people like 20-25 hours into the game and still didn't know how combos worked because they're never properly explained.
>>337413539
>strategy-shooter role-playing game hybrid
What did he mean by this?
>>337408901
Monster Hunter
I'm sorry. I'll never understand how to play properly.
>>337414998
Hit the monster until it dies, avoid being hit until you die.
>>337413539
there's no real strategy or role playing in it. it's just japanese devs being retarded again.
>>337416376
You and I both know that's no all there is too it.
>>337416657
I mean there's shit like armor skills and upgrading weapons, but that's pretty much the gist of it.
You learn the monster's patterns to avoid dying to it, and you hit it with your preferred weapon (which you have learned the moveset of, so you know when and how to use what) until it dies
>>337408901
>any real time strategy games
I feel like those would be way more fun if I could just figure out how to do anything.
>>337408901
Hearts of Iron has a pretty steep learning curve
I usually stick to, like, two or three combos when I play Bayonetta. I rarely switch out the weapons. I am everything wrong with video games.
>Turn-based game with skill comboes that aren't literally Press-turn
>Subclassing system where multiple classes interact with each other in terrifyingly powerful ways compared to their individual counterparts
>Massive damage-sponge autokill bosses that damn-near demand you figure out that nonsense in order to wipe them out cleanly
What games other than Bravely Default, Bravely Second, and the Etrian Odyssies with Subclassing will bring back this feelio?
>>337418164
I do the same with DMC
>>337418467
FF Tactics A2, maybe?
There's crazy strong class combinations but I never went too far into the "extra" areas so I don't know how much they're truly tested.
>>337418714
How good is A2 as a GAME? Because I loved the plot and characters of Tactics, but that game is really, really goddamn boring as a game itself. I hear from a few of my friends that A2 is the pinnacle of the franchise's gameplay, even if the story is lackluster, and that the law system was pretty cool.
>>337416870
Not him, but playing monster hunter freedom on the psp.
Most of the weapons feel kinda shitty, but I like lances, only problem is my ability to dodge attacks.
Trying to kill the kut-kut was a bitch because he always flew to the areas with a lot of velocipreys and would get me into a stunlock if I found myself backed to a wall.
Also I have no idea how to make anything useful other than force combining every single item I have in my inventory.
