This is what it's like trying to discuss video games with people irl:

>"Hey you like games?"
>Oh yeah I only play Valorant, Overwatch and League

>"Hey you like games?"
>I only play roguelikes

>"Hey you like games?"
>I have 15,000 hours in this autistic PC game...

Yeah I've been playing the PS2 port of Deus Ex lately, and before that I played the Mass Effect Trilogy, Ghost of Yotei was a recent one I enjoyed. I played about 100 hours of Battlefield 6, mostly the gauntlet mode. And I'm getting back into FFXIV. Last year I enjoyed Tomb Raider Legend, Skyrim, I tried getting into Warframe but I fell off about 150 hours in on Venus, uhhh I put some time into Tales of Berseria too before that, I wanna revisit that one for sure.

Damn, it's almost like you can just ignore things you don't like and move on with your life.

Sounds like you're a mouthbreathing nigger who should kill himself OP.

>>735051595
That's the same with any similar hobby

Is it really asking so much for people to have varied and broad tastes?

It's like saying you're into films and you only watch Spiderman 2 on repeat for 20 years...
>>
>>735053432
My favourite (video) book is Disco Elysium, followed closely by Summon Night 5
>>
It's 2026 OP, that's like walking up to someone and saying "hey, you like breathing?"
>>
>>735052009
The PS2 Deus was my first exposure to the game it's a really cool port
>>
>>735053879
But that's the thing though, it IS 2026, you'd think people would have broader and more fleshed out tastes. Even normalfaggots.

But in my experience, most people who say they're "into games" stick to 1-3 games for like 10 fucking years, or hell, their whole life. Which is just bizarre to me. It's like only listening to 3 bands, or reading 3 authors or watching 3 directors. There's SO much out there, and you're content with fucking Marvel Rivals for the next 5 years? And NOTHING else?
>>
>>735053819
According to his dog shit thread he talked to people who had varied taste and was still chimping out, you retard.
>>
>>735053950
I'm surprised how good it is for a PS2 era PC port. And how it's supposedly superior in certain ways, the only major downgrade being some loading screens splitting up the levels.
>>
>>735053980
>he talked to people who had varied taste
Who? Where? When?

And why are you so butthurt? Seriously, I honestly wanna know why. For real, tell me.
>>
>>735051595
You can't expect everyone to be into the same video games, or even into video games at all.
>>
>>735054096
No, BUT if you say "yeah I'm into games" I expect you to BE into games. As in like play a variety, you know. I don't think that's such a crazy barrier to entry, just play more than 3 fucking games in your life. Hahahaha, like, am I fucking nuts or what?

You have to accept people like mostly normalfag shit or only have a surface level understanding of vidya. Only a small percentage will actually like the good shit. And yes, it's fucking impossible to get them to play what you're interested in but they will insist you play all the FotM crap.
>>
>>735054171
Maybe they can't afford to play other stuff, or are just insanely picky when it comes to this hobby. I mean I get wanting variety, I personally like variety myself. But most people are just content to just playing series you can count on your hands and that's that.
>>
>>735054485
>Maybe they can't afford to play other stuff,
Emulation exists, piracy exists. I grew up in abject poverty and still played a wide variety of games growing up.
>or are just insanely picky when it comes to this hobby.
Man come the fuck on. No ones that picky. They're just not actually INTO games, they use games as social tools for hanging out with friends. I'm sick of this hobby being hijacked by people like that, that's all. Just stop saying you're into games if you're actually into hanging out with friends.
>>
>>735054171
>like, am I fucking nuts or what?
yes. that's just how it is nowadays. kids especially, they only play fortnite and roblox.
>>
Are you smiling, friend?

>"Hey you like music?"
>Yeah, let me think of what I like...
>"Hey, you like beer?"
>Weren't we going to talk about music?
>"Hey, you like animals?"
>>
>>735051595
It's come to the point where I've considered picking up valo or league or OW because every dude and foid I talk to that expresses even a casual interest in vidya always plays exactly those 3 games and I'm just an MMO addict
>>
>>735054280
This. I mean, you can replace vidya with anything and the same rule applies.
>"Hey you like movies?"
>Oh yeah I really like (the most normie shit you've ever heard of)
>"Hey you like books?"
>Oh yeah I really like (some book they probably read in school and/or some shallow/popular book)
>etc.
Most people are just kind of shallow and don't have much going on.

>150 hours
>never made it past planet 2
how. why.
>>
>>735057414
Actually it was Jupiter, sorry I'm drunk. SPECIFICALLY the escort the truck mission, just filtered the fuck out of me half a dozen times. Even after I grinded as much as I could stomach.
