Decline Games you are proud to not have played

[JarlFrank]

Any games that charge a monthly subscription fee (MMOs), games with always-online DRM that were shut off later and are now unplayable.

Because those are ripoffs.

Proud because i haven't played? Nah, not really.
I could name games that I didn't BUY instead. I am proud because I never gave mony to Bethesda (i would but Daggerfall is free). From CDPR I only bought Witcher 1. I am proud because i'm not financing big companies that make bad games.

From the top of my mind:
- BG3
- Disco
- Starfield
- Horizon Zero
- Skyrim
- Panescape: Torment. But maybe in the future... :D
- Fallout 3,4, etc (Maybe NV in the future, I'm not sure... someone gifted me years ago, and is on my game library)

I don't know about proud, but I've stopped trying to play real-time RPGs (first person or RTWP) all together. Looking back on all of them I played, I really only enjoyed a handful of them. While I'm sure I might miss out on some gems, I'd much rather play a mediocre turn-based RPG over a good (not great) real-time one. It was my umpteenth attempt at playing Fallout: New Vegas where I finally learned the lesson. I want to like the game because I can see it has some good stuff in it, but I just don't enjoy it.

You played Mass Effect 1 and 2.

If he did, then he might as well play part 3 too. I'm actually playing ME3 right now, and I'm on the final mission as I'm typing this (took a break to check the Codex). I have to say that this one has been the most enjoyable of the lot, and recruting as much help against the Reapers and collecting as much War Asset points as possible has been fairly engaging.

With that said, the game itself is still a popamole cover shooter, so that fact alone makes it impossible to recommend this to people who're incapable of enjoying games that lack a deep and tactical combat experience. But if you've managed to get through the first, or the second game (or both), and did that without getting a massive headache, then there's really no reason not to play ME3.

ME3 combat is really good for what it's trying to be , the important part is divorcing the RPG fan in yourself to enjoy it. The only truly cover shooter Mass Effect game is the second which requires you to be in behind cover.

If you're spending any significant time sitting behind walls in ME1 or ME3 then you're playing the game wrong, unless you're cheesing the hardest difficulty in the multi-player

Far Cry 6, for sure. I wrote a break down here but eventually when I cleaned out my computer I ripped it out along with CP2077 and Fallout:NV. I'm glad I snagged it on sale, but hate that I ever wanted it at all. The whole game was a slog from start to finish and besides a few moments where my shitty gray matter told my shitty hormone balls to produce serotonin and whatever, it really was more hassle than fun.

[KeighnMcDeath]

Pride in video games is a foolish thing

So Pride in playing Ultima 4+ would be very UNVIRTUOUS eh?

 

[gaussgunner]

Witcher 2, Witcher 3

I'm ashamed that I have, but I didn't pay much for them.

But I've never played
Cyberpunk
Starfield
Last of Us
Mass Effect
Disco Elysium
Original Sin 2
Baldur's Gate 3, 2, or 1
Undertale
Tranny
Dragon Age
and that's just RPGs

More like I'm ashamed of having wasted so much time playing games.

I wanna play the game that your duck avatar comes from.

What game is it?

 

[Tweed]

I think it's from The Magic Candle.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

I just can’t remember a duck in MC though. How can that possibly be?

Hodli ducks eh?

 

[Grampy_Bone]

I wouldn't say "proud," but I'm happy to have dodged the MMO trend, DOTA/LoL, COD, Halo, 'Extraction' games, TF2 (I consider Half-life 2 overhyped as shit but I played it), Amnesia & other 'Run away from the monster' games, Candy Crush, Angry Birds, Evony, Mobile shit, Facebook shit, Minecraft, TLOU2 (sadly played the first), the Avengers game, and Forspoken.

I will say I definitely won't play any more Bioware games after ME3, or any Witcher games unless they ditch Geralt and feature actual character customization.

I also will never play 'Disco-likes,' aka Jennifer Hepler's revenge. I used to enjoy Adventure games now and then, but I won't support games based on fraud and subversion.

 

[Late Bloomer]

I have played a lot of slop, including most of the games on your own list luj1 Even so, there is really only one game that could fall into this category for myself, and that is Baldur's Gate 3. I can't express how repulsed I am by that game and the people that play it. I am proud to not count myself amongst them.

This was supposed to be an elite forum after all.

A lot of things were supposed to be.

Your life must be very miserable and devoid of any achievements if the fact that you haven't played some games makes you proud.

 

[luj1]

Okay mr autoprojection

 

[Konjad]

You are correct in that I'm in the 1% here which are the most difficult to please.

*never plays Prelude to Darkness or The Void because they are too inferior to his taste*

*completes Mass Effects*

 

[luj1]

I played Prelude to Darkness

What else can it pull out of its ass, hm? A long lost buttplug technology?

Alright, so scratch PtD, but the point stands.
