Here’s a look at some of my favorite games. I must say pretty much anything from PS is my favorite. Ragnarok, Helldivers, Spider-Man, Ratchet and Clank, etc.

What I love: Primarily story-driven, third-person, high-fidelity, single-player games with solid fighting characteristics with simple upgrade paths. FPS are cool too. Anything with “power fantasy”.

What I hate: Anything complicated that I have to scower the internet just to learn how to play. Anything with classes or numerical attributes (Strength, Vitality, etc). I know this comprises many popular games, and if you like it, I’m happy for you, it’s just not for me.

Edit: no corporate trash. No Ubisoft, EA, Rockstar, Denuvo, or remote accounts.

          to temper their excitement, I usually love games where you have to figure things out for yourself, but that one had me completely stumped. I eventually uninstalled, with a bitter taste in my mouth because I really wanted to figure it out (and the mechanics are fun, the entire thing is lovingly crafted…). That’s coming from a guy who finished most of the Myst games.

          Just saying because that suggestion doesn’t really mesh well with your OP statement

            I hope you try it again someday! It really is a once in a lifetime experience, so if you aren’t enjoying it it’s a good idea to put it down and come back with a fresh start later. I would hate for someone’s only experience with this game to be one of frustration and forcing yourself to play something because everyone says it’s good.
