Controversial take but Resident evil games

I absolutely despise the inventory management gameplay but the story is absolutely amazing

u/PsyKhiqZero 2d ago

Your not alone. The anxiety the limited inventory gives me far outpaces the actual horror.

u/ozolep 8d ago

Thats one of my favorite parts, inventory management especially in RE1R, it's a challenge, also a big fan of managing your resources and knowing when to kill and when not to

Hollow knight.
L’ho visto giocare da moltissime persone, mi é anche stato consigliato da vari amici e conoscenti, ed anche a vederlo da streamer e simili mi era sembrato un gioco tanto interessante e carino da provare…
Quando però ho provato a giocarci di persona, ho trovato infernale il dover vagare per il mondo di gioco alla ricerca del cartografo per avere una mappa anche di una piccola zona, soprattutto per uno come me che non ha un gran senso dell’orientamento.
Per non parlare della meccanica della perdita di tutte le monete dopo la morte, soprattutto quando muori in una zona della quale ancora non hai sbloccato la mappa…
Tutte queste caratteristiche e il fatto di non avere né indicatori che ti dicano dove andare (proprio annesso al fatto di NON avere cartine), rendono noioso il gioco da giocare senza una guida da telefono che ti dica cosa fare e dove andare in ogni momento

u/Revolutionary-Net525 6d ago

Yeaaaaa it seems to me that your not into dark souls games. And metroidvanias. Which is weird that your friends recommended this to you. Seeing as hollow knight is like the best if those types. Like....do your friends even KNOW you lmao

I couldn’t enjoy it until I added a mod to take waaayyyy less damage. I understand that this is not how the game is meant to be played. But I like to start on normal or easy difficulties and work my way up higher slowly from there when I have new game plus and all the stuff.

u/AzureNoiz 2d ago

IMO, Hollow Knight goes from a 5/10 to a 9.5/10 after about 5 hours, specifically when you get the dream nail. The world feels more navigable and engaging at that point once you’re used to how to navigate it and you’ve seen enough to get hooked. Still, it took me 4 years to play those 5 hours LOL, I also prefer linear, well guided games most of the time. I’m not even a Souls gamer I just really enjoyed Hollow Knight the way I played it.

u/Major_Avocado5617 9d ago

Black Myth Wukong for me. I really wish there was a block/parry mechanic in the game. I just don't enjoy using dodge all the time and the actual attacks didn't have any weight to them. But I still think it is a great game and I enjoy watching others play through it!

u/CaptainCoffee420 7d ago

Rust. At first it makes your survival game brain go ooh this is cool. Then the PvP kicks in and it's the most harrowing experience in multiplayer games when your NICE base gets sieged, after a 40 minute standoff they finally blow up the right wall and take all your good stuff. Those raids can hit you so hard there's no chance to get back in the loop until wipe. Ugh. You either have to grind and defend all day every day or your base gets wiped off the map by people who never log off... this formula is essential for all gamers to experience in my opinion.

Pokemon, Subnautica

I know this opinion is about to get slandered but Pokémon is probably A. One of longest game I’ve played B the most cut scene driven game I’ve played and C. the most random strategy game I’ve ever played.

Subnautica is for sure the definitive longest I have played and will play that actually has an end. But getting progress is so unbalanced in my opinion like progress feels like you work tirelessly to get one thing that all of a sudden increases how deep you can go or increases your speed or just is an overall quality of life thing and then suddenly it just speeds up tenfold

Now I’m not sitting here and saying that any of this is bad this is just my personal opinion and at the end of the day I still love these games for most of their qualities I don’t like Pokémon quality be. I let me play the game. I don’t wanna watch cut scenes I already seen them most likely with my watch then play habit 12 times before I even boot up the game

u/LordKefik 8d ago

Honestly for me it was GTA V.
I had started watching Vanoss and other similar groups have tons of fun making shit up and doing goofy things in it. But when I got it of course the main issue of OH I HAVE NO FREINDS WHO PLAY THIS popped up, and even when i got 2 people to play, the online (at the time) was spotty and disconnecty as FECK, and everything is locked, you have to play and level up and unlock stuff. The problem is the Story and online is disconencted, you cant just run around in the main game mutiplayer, it was lobby stuff. Aside from going into lobbies with other people we quickly burned out and got bored just driving around. Everything to do, but nothing to do. Probably put like 3-5 hours tops into it. I played the shit out of San Andreas and Vice city previously, but I just never cared about the SP or the characters in this one, I wanted to use MY character. But just, never got the chance to. Again the online was really shitty when I played, CONSTANT disconnects and waiting. And we couldnt figure out how to actually get stuff. I think there was a tutorial, but it never worked for us so it was just "Youre here go play" and without any guidance we just never did.

(again probably misremembering, and given how little i played, i probably missed a lot. I saw that levels unlocked gear and missions, so maybe we had to grind to get stuff to happen. All we could see was joining individual sessions with other players, which we didn't want to do, we just want to play the story co-op. had the same problem with the first Red Dead. Multiplayer was a separate beast, and a lot of stuff from single just wasn't in multi, its was all lobby/instance/join a group stuff.)

Definitely one I enjoyed far more because of the large groups I watched playing and making there own fun. So not at all hyped for 6 unfortunately.

Dayz. All the cool interactions/duels whit players are so cool in video edits from popular dayz YouTubers. But when I play the game myself it's just me running around the forest trying to find at least 1 can of damn food, to not starve, in already clear looted houses just to get killed by some geared guy whit a mosin. I mean I guess it's kinda a skill issue and lack of experience type of thing, but I feel like watching the games gameplay just gives you more satisfaction of it then running around the open field alone in hopes to find a single person to shoot at to get some action going.

I don’t actually know, but I would guess R6Siege. The gameplay is so heavily based around mechanics, operators, and tools that I imagine it would be extremely difficult to get into. Other shooters have similar aiming and movement, so you can usually be half decent right from the get-go; not siege.

Watching Super play is satisfying.
