You may think, perhaps with good reason, that games with the highest execution demands like shmups or fighting games are the hardest. But you would be WRONG.Sure, these games ARE difficult, but they can also be quite stimulating to play. There's one factor these games are missing which ultimately makes them fall short in the difficulty ratings.RPGs by comparison are exceptionally BORING. So much so that the most skilled players won't even ATTEMPT these games. The prospect of unskippable and progression-critcal WALLS OF TEXT brings the most veteran gamers to their knees.In traditionally hard games, it's possible to rely on muscle memory or reflexes to reach the credits. But RPGs completely FILTER players who rely on these crutches. You can't just autopilot your way through the game. To play RPGs you have to CONSTANTLY fight the hardest boss in all of gaming: DIALOG.There's no shortcuts in RPGs, just grit and willpower, with no comparison when it comes to difficulty. These relentless demands assert RPGs are the most difficult genre in all of gaming. How do you COPE?
>>12029487TLDR But the hardest genre is any multi-player game vs a real human being that's good at the game

>>12029487WRONG ARE RPG BORING ATTEMPT WALLS OF TEXT RPG FILTER RPG CONSTANTLY DIALOG RPG COPE
>>12029487Even if that was the case and the wall of boredom made it hardcore, RPGs wouldn't be the hardest genre when things like farming simulators, grand strategy and adventure games exist. MMORPGs would also be the most hardcore of all RPG games, since not only you have to deal with the boredom of grinding and plot, you also have to deal with other MMORPG players.
reading is funilliteratefags should go do math or something instead
>>12029487Do you like dragon quest 5? I think that's a nice and very charming jarpig. I like the lil Mexican guy who joins your party. I like playing parcheesi to get the healing sword. I don't like grinding for a king healslime. But I, overall, quite like dq5.
>>12029487RPGs reward dedication.
>>12029503>TLDRFiltered.
>>12029562None of your alternatives have the same level of necessary dialog. This is what filters gamers: they have to pay attention to reading text, often necessary to advance the game. And indeed, dialog has such a central role in RPGs that if you don't read the text, did you really beat the game?
>>12031823>can't spell dialogueNo wonder you hate reading.
>>12031829Oh nice catch. Thank you secretary.
>>12029503Retards with dyslexia think RPGs are hard because you have to read. I also didn't finish his idiotic tirade.
>>12033223If reading isn't hard then why are so many of you not able to finished reading the OP?There may be something to this.
