What game /v/?
All of them, I've realized that for the last year or so I literally can't do anything but lurk imageboards and watch anime. Anything that requires more commitment just gets ignored.
God, I can't even imagine what I'd do if I had to pay for all the anime I'd watch. I would just sit on the floor and waste away.
>>341851895
How old are you? Because Im starting to feel the same.
>>341851957
Only 24, I can still have fun with some games but it's a once in a blue moon thing
>>341852243
Fuck, Im 21 and the last game I trully enjoyed was DaS1 some months ago.
Are we getting older or vidya is getting worse?
>>341851895
>>341851957
>>341852243
>>341852326
Here are the medicines I recommend:
Wonderful 101
Kid Icarus Uprising
Resident Evil 4
These will momentarely ease your vidya depression
>>341852326
Games are definitely getting worse but I've found that taking a break of a few months from playing and doing something else instead can help make them seem fun again.
>>341851775
I just downloaded the Ghostbusters game...it's bretty good.
Super Mario 64. pannenkoek2012's videos gave me the urge to replay it but I just groan when I have to go through Bob-omb Battlefield and then stop.
Also, some Doom wads; I'm trying to go through Plutonia after going through TNT entirely recently. Though the increase in challenge is welcome, I don't have the urge to go through it and its over-reliance on Revenants and Chaingunners.

>get bored
>>341852541
I've never played RE4, maybe I'll give it a try.
>>341852734
Whenever I come to 4chan I want to replay Das1 but then I just complete the asylum and alt+f4.
I feel like once you know all the areas the game is deprived of all meaning.
>>341851775
RCT3
It just disappoints me every time
>>341851775
any total war game.
the older ones felt spontaneous and unpredictable. the newer ones.. well, having your allies break alliances and declare war on you would be spontaneous if it didn't happen all the time.
also in no particular order games I've tried to replay but just can't
Prison Architect
Portal
Kerbal Space Program
X3: Albion Prelude
Metro 2033
Any Call of Duty game
Any Fallout game
None of them are particularly bad for any reason. I've just played them so fucking much I can't.
FTL
boring as fuck.
what is the appeal of space?
>>341852734
I can't stand the "same world - different mission" type of Mario 64. You just keep going through the same obsticles over 5 times and even more if you manage dying or backtracking. The bowser-levels are so god-tier because it's a linear and focused track and leans more to the old Mario games

>>341853005

Legit surprised
>>341853005
The older ones were pathetically easy on max difficulty.
>>341851775
Witcher 3
>>341853020
I agree. I wish I could just bang out multiple stars without being booted out of the level.
>>341853110
They're just cartoons, anon
You should watch Evangelion or Akira

Yes, I think this is how it ends.
>>341851775
arcade games in MAME is pretty fun
games are kinda short but at least they are good most of the way through
>>341853121
After 200 hours the whole idea just ran out of steam to me. I'm not even an angry autist that hates squad. I think they did a fine job and I got the tiny amount I paid for it in entertainment. But after a while there's only so many times you can d the same shit.
>>341853151
Right but the older ones had better mods desu and that really pushed their shelf life.
I can still play M2TW once a year. Yeah, I don't have any difficulty even when using choice mods, but that's skill blindness on my part not the games fault. They can't make a perfect game that keeps adapting to me getting better and eventually I just giit gud. Either I impose silly house rules that leave me annoyed or I stomp the shit out of the AI.
RTW with EB mod is the only counter example to that. It had a great difficulty curve and imposing house rules is easy and is even incorporated somewhat into the mod.
>>341853015
It's a place you will never go in your lifetime, so it's nice to experience it in some way.
>>341853275
>games are kinda short
Why do all good games can be beat in like a week?
Each year I replay this and it always leaves me with this feeling of "I want more of this."
Dark Souls 2

>After 200 hours the whole idea just ran out of steam to me.
Am I retarded? I thought this thread was about games you get bored with after 5 minutes and not games you've played for 200 hours and get bored with after 5 minutes. I suppose it's the same thing but pretty fucking different.

I dunno, I sort of liked the hub-like approach. You got your hint, now find the star, or any of them for that matter. The movement allowed also complimented it.
It would be better if there was less retreading over some areas, but I prefer it over Sunshine and Galaxy where you can only for one certain star/shine at a time with the odd exception. They weren't as open-ended.r
>>341853515
I said I can't replay them without getting bored in 5 minutes.
Dark souls
>>341851775
Literally every Harvest Moon

yes.

You will eventually realise you have quite a bit more time than you're complaining about and you'll stop pretending to be a "grown up" and start playing again. Don't worry.
I did the same thing, now married, make really good money doing a respectable job of which I work well over 50 hours a week and I still play Video Games.

99% of PC games are
Tetris arcade
All downhill from there
>>341853774
I made 6 new characters last week and with every single one I got to Anor Londo, co-oped/invaded for an hour or two, and then I turned the game off.
>>341854084
Fucked up my pic
>>341853931
Please name an exciting game not from steam
Im not trying to argue i just want to find games that dont bore me within 1day
>>341851775
quite literally every bethesda game i tried.
>>341851775
Oblivion
Skyrim
Fallout 3
Fallout 4
>Want to play co-op game with friend

Just want a good 2 player co-op game
dragon's dogma after 100 hours
the first 50-75 were pure, unadulterated fun but after finishing the main quest twice and doing 5-10 daimon runs i've exhausted the vast majority of the content and have no desire to ever touch it again except for maybe a decade from now if i ever feel like revisiting an old gem and doing it all over again.hopefully we'll have a full, proper sequelor twosooner or later with co-op using the pawn system and I won't actually need to
Bravely Default
Skyward Sword
Final Fantasy XIII/XIII-2
Tomb Raider
>>341854680
Spelunky
Nuclear Throne
Risk of Rain
There's three good ones right there
Garry's Mod
I start it up and join a darkrp server because I want to mess around, but it's boring because literally everything is fucking restricted and even servers with less than 15 people have like 3 admins so there is no chance you'll have any fun without getting banned
I have 200+ games in my steam account but i don't want to play any of them
>>341851775
Any zelda for me. Just can't get into it
Metro 2033
Too many cutscenes, shoulda been a fucking movie
>>341854708
Same.

>that sorcery
>that questan

Tales of Zestiria.
I want to like it but it's so boring.
I've noticed this trend a lot on /v/ and never really anywhere else on the internet. Ever think that maybe spending hours on end everday on this negative shithole has effected how you feel about video games?
>>341855637
yes because i learned that imageboards are an easier instant gratification dopamine hit than vidya ever was, and so vidya became less fun than imageboards.
>>341855637
Nah, games are getting worse. Microtransactions, forever early access games, developers itching to release DLC... they really ruin things for people who want more than dinner and a show out of a title.
I still love the games I always did, and manage to find new titles to play once in a while. It's just not as easy to get excited about video games.
>>341855924
You're playing the wrong games then. There are still tons of AAA games developers that don't mess with DLC and microtransactions.
starcraft
>>341856206
like what?
>>341851775
I've tried playing dead space 3 about 4 times now starting a new game each time cos I leave it so long. I just can't do it. Is it worth pushing through bros? I loved the other two games
Racing games that have a mandatory open world so you have to drive to you next race instead of just selecting it from a list.
Its ok if its a small hub world but i fucking hate having to spend 5 minutes driving just to play the next actually fun part of the racing game which is racing.
>>341854453
Steel Fury: Kharkov 1942
though if you don't particularly like tanks it may be pretty boring
>>341855616
To be fair, Tales games usually start pretty slow and get great right before the ending.
You also picked a bad one.
>>341851775
Monster Hunter X(cross)
Now that I just finished my armor 5 minutes ago, and my weapon and charm this morning...
I literally have nothing to do.
My goal was to get those things, now I don't even feel like using them.
>>341852625
>taking a break
err anon all I do is play vidya what else can I do
>>341853249
>not picking up SMITE after quitting lol and getting kneedeep back into the MOBA sewage
this shit is my home just like the filthy trash I am
Just play some simple Tetris in n-blox.com
Controls are
Arrow key up is spin
Space is push it down immediately
Other arrow keys are control
Play it for some minutes on level 7 and you will have Fun again
>no vanilla versions for games like league of legends
>every game has evolved into a pile of unfun trash
