These days damn near anything that costs more than 30. Because the extra money isn't enough, they want to sell you $5000 in hats, too.

Roguelikes. The infinite replayability and computer generated design are fatiguing to me. Seems like most of the reasons why people like them are the exact reasons I don't. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

For me it's the fact that most of them aren't actually able to be beaten on any given run.

[โ€“] daddy32@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

This. I'm OK with permadeath (and in game), but when a game is setup in such a way that most playthroughs just aren't winnable, even by someone with perfect knowledge, I hate them.

[โ€“] Moneo@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Games made by Bethesda, EA, Ubisoft, or Paradox.

[โ€“] carl_dungeon@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

CoD, overwatch, sports games, free to play games, casino games.

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Multiplayer games that require invasive anticheat or really long games that take 100+ hours to complete.

[โ€“] Evotech@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

These days anything with a story honestly.

If I want a story I'll watch TV with my wife. When I play games I'd rather pay something short and fun, like a round of deadlock recently.

[โ€“] Sicklad@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

MOBA games, I spent years playing heroes of newerth and Dota2, but as I got older and had less time to play it got increasingly harder to keep up with all the changes, and I realised it was just making me stressed playing it rather than enjoying it. Still enjoyed watching The International for a few years after I quit though.

Any dev's online game that does not want to support Linux in their AC for whatever reason, even if it is a matter of just flipping a goddam switch.

Yup. Got locked out myself since I only play on a linux machine. Yeah rockstar you can fuck right off.

[โ€“] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

At this point, anything that isn't Smash Brothers or Apex Legends.

[โ€“] AFC1886VCC@reddthat.com 2 points 3 months ago

Anything Ubisoft

And RTS? For the same reason or different?

[โ€“] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Well, ever since the whole thing where macrohard/mojangles/whichever decided "you know what minecraft needs? CLIENT SIDE CHAT SCANNING AND CENSORSHIP!" I decided to switch over to Minetest and have never looked back.

I don't mind big servers having censorship because that's their deal and they can use whatever chat filters/plug-ins they want, but do we really need singleplayer to be censored? Or our chat messages to be scanned for things mc deem inappropriate? Absolutely not!

I'm gonna make a microtransaction-laden gambling trap competitive multiplayer dating sim, get EA to publish it, and title it "๐Ÿ–•"

[โ€“] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 2 points 3 months ago

I think that's just called "reality".
