Which is a common complaint among people that don't play them. "Anime turn based JRPG waifu bait trash" and other similar phrases.
They don't learn the fundamentals of the genre and can't see the nuance. All JRPG are the "same".

"The Fundamentals" of fighting games are not understood by most players.
They focus on being able to input the commands to do the cool looking combos and those look mostly the same in all fighters.
I've tried, I can't do the genre myself lol. It's just too fast and too much is needed to learn before you actually truly understand the nuances.
Only genre I can't get in to.

Modelling of 93 European cities finds that increasing tree cover up to 30% can help lower the temperature of urban environments by an average of 0.4°C and prevent one in three heat deaths as a result. by MistWeaver80
I hate going up on to my roof too. So many things could go wrong with a setup like that. Screw that noise. I want a low maintenance roof.

Reply to How come nintendo can be extremely anti consumer and get away with it but whenever Sony and Microsoft do the same thing people only criticize Sony or Microsoft? by [deleted]
I mean I view Nintendo as one of the most pro consumer gaming companies. They just provide a product without any BS or micro transactions or any crap. Full games.
I don't care about fan games or content or any of that stuff.

Reply to Retro games for an old gamer to new gamers by Saraleb1
Mario on NES
Super Mario World
Super Mario 64
Donkey Kong Country 1-3
Zelda Link to the Past
Zelda Ocarina of Time
Chrono Trigger
Secret of Mana
Final Fantasy 6 (or 3 for North America release, depends how ROM is labeled)
Luigi Mansion
I'm biased towards Nintendo but I think all of these games have held up just fine. Maybe original Mario is a bit stupid to kids these days though but the Super Nintendo one is better.

What kind of movies or books or tv are your favorite?
Stardew Valley is a solid casual game that almost anyone at any age and any gaming experience can enjoy. Life is Strange is easy gameplay and a solid narrative. Baby games but good games.
But without knowing preferences hard to recommended stuff.

Reply to comment by Apexnoobisux in Have you guys played eso? Is it a good elder scrolls game? thinking of buying it by Apexnoobisux
It's basically a simplified Elder Scrolls game with real people running around.
Quests don't have much player impact, but they're good lore dumps and you get to explore the world and lore of everything.
It's very easy open world, lots of stuff to do especially if you like crafting, and it's all about lore and just living your best life in Tamriel.

It's a good single player MMO. Especially for questing and lore.
It's a bad multiplayer MMO. All the group content is dead except real end game stuff.

It's accessible to everyone with the same amount of effort therefore looking at the other players screen is part of the meta.

I like stomping them until the item comes out. Like a piñata.

Reply to Just not excited about games anymore help! by ehxy
I just play my "core games". Things like Factorio, Ocarina of Time, Majoras Mask, Cities Skylines, Chrono Trigger, Resident Evil 1 and 4.
Stuff I can sink time in to that always immerse me. Like starting a fresh run in Chrono Trigger and doing all endings. Or fresh Zelda run and unlocking EVERYTHING.

Reply to Haven't played Dead Space before. Should I get the remake or play the original? by candidate2929
Remake is better in every way from the original.
Original still a good game, but remake IS phenomenal.

Bayonetta.
It's the same gameplay. Colorful and wild set pieces. Good music. Cheesy and over the top story.
You're just fighting devils and angels with over the top sex appeal instead of robots.
Devil May Cry 5 same thing. Except instead of cartoons or sex appeal it's edgy coolness to the point of complete cheese.

USB DVD drives are cheap.
Also most physical PC games these days are just CD keys. Activate and download.

I detest micro transactions and all the idiots that buy into them. Further perpetuating the idiocy and making people chase the money. But thankfully there are still studios that care about the art out there.

Reply to Rant: All single player games should have an easy way to quit to desktop and save as-is. Too many games require exiting to main menu and then quitting from there -- with an obligatory "ARE YOU SURE - YOUR PROGRESS WILL NOT BE SAVED" warning. Save the progress and quit -- it's not that hard. by BBorNot
The worst are the ones that even disable alt+f4.
I've saved. Or I don't care if I saved. Let me quit the damned game without opening task manager or navigating menus.
