Halo


Halo 2 was legit, but man Halo was overrated. There are dozens of FPS's I'd rather play. And the only problem with Halo 2, is that it's basically just a rip off of better formulas. Still a well produced game, but simply derivative.

man ,the fanboiz jump all over anyone who even mentions they don't view rdr as the pinnacle of gaming.

I guess collecting bear pelts is viewed more favorably amongst everyone than I thought

It was great just not for me. Most Rockstar and Naughty Dog games aren't.

Edited, didn't mean to say witcher. I don't think it's a bad game but I was bored playing it.

Halo.Destiny. Any FF after 9.

Witcher 2 and 3 are two of the best games ever made.

I can certainly see why someone wouldn't be a huge fan of the Witcher/Red Dead type games.

I love games that allow me to interact in a story over a long period of time. I like spending 30-40+ hours becoming attached to a character.

The Witcher more so than Red Dead though. The amount of ?'s on the map overwhelmed me at the start as well, but it was honestly a game I looked forward to playing for hours every day after work. IMO, it was sheer perfection. And even the DLC's were perfect. Some people just aren't into dedicating long playtimes to a game. They want something they can finish a week or so without playing for 6+ hours a day.

It was a game that didn't take itself too seriously that was created by a company CDPR who gave free DLC for the first like 12 weeks after release as well.

I would honestly give anything to go back and re-experience the Witcher 3 for the first time.

My most overrated games are the Uncharted series. I love the story, but the gameplay as a whole was not my style. I hated how linear everything was early on in the franchise and just couldn't pick it up later because they just made the linear levels more open, even though it was ultimately 'go here, we just won't make it a thin narrow lane in the jungle'.

SPOILERS FOR RED DEAD




Once John Marston is killed and you take over as Jack and get to take revenge on the men who killed your father, that was the most fulfilling RPG type mission I've ever completed. It was incredible. The fact that they even allow you to kill/lasso his wife and brother was just icing on the cake.

Game length does scare people off but that wasn't my problem. I had no issue with length in fallout 4 or 3. I played through persona 4 and really liked that. I also Had no Issue Putting Hundreds Of Hours InTo Destiny

Not sure what's the biggest turnoff to minecraft, the aimless nature of it or the look. I know some people flat out refuse to play it because it looks blocky and old.

Here's what always happens to me: I enjoy trying to figure out how to make stuff and make stuff work, but then I invite that friend who goes full tard and has a full assembly plant for cars going overnight and I'm still trying to figure out how to make steps. Then I lose interest.

When I did the TD modded server for a bit, forget who it was, but they had a full computer system for inventory and crafting going quickly. It was pretty crazy to see what they kept building.

Graphics were a bit turnoff for me, then I found a texture pack that I liked and I really enjoyed the game after that.
