For me, it has to be “souls like”. I don’t get much time to game so when I do, I want linear stories that are challenging but not to the extent that I can’t move forward without dying 100 times.

Also, sims that encourage a lot of DLC purchases - I’m an old school gamer and games used to come with all of the content - for one price. Now it’s just a given we have to hand over more money for half the game content.

    nothing online competitive and repetitive with battle passes.

    BUT wouldn’t mind WOW Classic again one day. Miss my undead healer.

    Pretty much shooters, but only on Steam Deck because I don’t like playing shooters on a handheld.

    Besides Unit 13 on PS Vita. That game is good on handheld.

    FPS shooters. I am not very good at them. I have some, I don’t play them much and anything with micro transactions.

    JRPGs. I don’t usually like turn based combat, and I also don’t like when games spend LOADS of time on story sequences. A friend of mine recently convinced me to try Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep and it drove me up the wall that the first 10-15 minutes of the game only contained like 2 minutes of gameplay.

    I’ll make exceptions on occasion, but the story and combat both have to be absolutely phenomenal for me to give it a fair shake.

    Yeah, I hate Soul like games too. I just don’t understand them.

    Also hate all battle royale games.

    Horrors. I play games to unwind, not get stressed out. Incidentally the same reason I gave up multiplayers e.g League 🙃

    Sports games, the fact that they are outright cash grabs with very iteration the same as their previous. And that I could play such sports in real life if I wanted to.

    Shooters like MW or CoD, same thing with sports games. They are the same thing every year with just a fresh coat of paint. I do love playing Borderlands, and CounterStrike.
