I don't even enjoy playing games anymore, its like a chore to do the daily quests and shit, i play maybe 30 mins a day now, used to play for 18 hours straight for weeks......is it time to just give up on gaming?
Should i just quit vidya?
you should try urethral sounding
not interested
that's too bad.
MMOs died a while ago, buddy.
based
My god dude. Your taste in video games is abhorrent. That's the ONLY thing stopping you from having fun, what the fuck.
Also I was the first Cleric to level 60 or was it 50? AMA (actually don't I literally rushed to max level, hated the game and quit instantly), I have no knowledge about it.
Seriously though if you want the "TRUE" mmo experience there's only 1 game that does that properly and that's EVE Online. Every other game is fucking garbage.
If you're fine just switching off MMO's entirely though just play some highly rated shit like the Witcher Series, or GTA5 or whatever right. Stop plying shit that your brain tells you to play and play shit that other people do. Because trust me, you're fucking wrong.
Destiny 2 ugh. What a bad game. BDO aswell...
>mmos
of course you're bored, your taste in vidya is trash
Don't fucking play MMOs. It's not like a chore, the daily shit literally is a chore. It exists to drag you back in and make you feel like something you NEED to do. Just go emulate old SNES or gamecube games or something, and play games at your own pace.
>Play number increasing simluators
>Be surprised when you waste a lot of time and get bored
go emulate Wario Land 4 as a palette cleanser and chase it with Katamari, stupid
Not even just drag you back in, but literally make it so that you can't proceed (In the case of WoW's world quests).
It's sad to see posts on the forums defend them also like "World quests give me something to do everyday!"
BITCH HAVE YOU TRIED REGULAR CONTENT UPDATES INSTEAD OF THE LITERALLY DONE IN 2 HOURS GNOME ISLAND?
>play shitty games
>complain about vidya
Go back to experimenting with different genres, man. Games like Destiny are too grindy without friends. Either that or give your habits a cooldown or something idk
Seems like the average Zig Forumsirgin
Lol fucks sake dude MMOs?
Get some fucking taste
my taste in games?
I tried the witcher, its just a fucking normie game, its boring and gay
also tried dark souls, absolute shit, deleted after 5 mins of shitty camera and dying over and over to some wolves
i played a lot of 1 player rpgs that were pretty good to ok, baldurs gate saga, icewind dale saga, neverwinter nights, diablo 1, elder scrolls 1-2-3, fallout 3, new vegas, fallout 4...
the problem i have with a lot of the newer games is the lack of customization, random item drops, unique loot, good powers/feats system for builds, its like everything just went mainstream shit about 10 years ago
5000 HOURS BETWEEN THEM HOLY SHIT THIS CUNT IS FOR REAL..
DUDE. GET IT IN YOUR FUCKING HEAD. YOUR TASTE IN GAMES IS SHIT.
YOU HATED DS BECAUSE YOU SUCK.
YOU HATED WITCHER BECAUSE YOU'RE UNABLE TO APPRECIATE SHIT BECAUSE YOU PLAYED MMOS FOR 5000 FUCKING HOURS AND ARE DEAD INSIDE.
TRUST US. ITS YOU.
thats just steam, i played neverwinter without steam for like 2 years...
>Deleted ater 5 mins of shitty camera and dying over and over to some wolves
This has to be a bait post. I refuse to believe anyone's this stupid.
Hes for real dude, look at that picture...
If your taste is this shit you might enjoy gacha
nope, even tried dark souls 2 and had the same issue, shitty camera, bullshit story, and dying to some lame ass enemies over and over, deleted that shit after 5 mins as well
i dont see why people defend absolute shit games like these
>not recommended
>1251 hours at review time
>2431 hours current
Why do people do this?
Sounds like too many RPGs. Get some variety in there, maybe. Have you ever tried playing to enjoy a game, maybe playing for the sake of curiosity, exploration, or challenge?
peak mmobrain
If you're having trouble dying to "lame ass enemies" in ds2 i got some news for you
You're a boomer now, and you need to play easier shit. Also pretty clearly you're suffering from depression and you should probably apologize to your ex-wife. Its you dude.
The only DS game with anything resembling wolves at the start is 2, with the pigs in a WIDE OPEN FIELD, and you have to go out of your way to attack them. They aren't necessary at all, and are designed to tell you to fuck off. There aren't any wolves in DS1 at all other than Sif. The dude's either just lying or has fried his brain so bad that he can't remember anything beyond his dailies and macros.
these people shielded us from making the same mistakes they made. they are heroes
hey man i just didnt like the game, im entitled to preference.
ok it was 2 then, its been a few years and i only played both for a few minutes before deleting them
>fucking normie game
What the fuck does this even mean.
trust me, it's the second thing. MMO players have all been conditioned these days that if the enemy is there to be killed that it's current content and he should be able to kill it.
He's literally forgotten what it used to be like to explore and come back for things you noticed but couldnt complete at the time.
DS2 is shit, but it's not shit for the reasons you said.
r*dditors trying to fit in
your brain have been wired by playing too many skinnerbox, you cant play games that doesnt have a loot/reward treadmill. try some games from a genre that you never try, maybe action/adventure games for starter
Just play whatever you find fun. I play Blazblue Central Fictionand the occasional RPG. If I feel like trying something new sometimes I pirate it play for a few hours and get bored. I don't waste any money so I don't feel like I wasted my money on some shit
>>spent ~$3000
>>spent ~$150
This is not allowed
Try warframe
Look, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt with Dark Souls. It's rough the first time round. Hell even maybe the 2nd time round.
Trust me though, the Dark Souls series is 10/10 and it's got everything to do with the fact that it's a video game like no other (or it was at the time).
You want to know what my favourite part about DS3 is? This is coming from a person who loves RPGs, will play anything with "stats" and dives head first for CRPG garbage just like you.
It was the music. The music. Yep. The music in that game is so well fucking done that it's the music. The best part about DS3 is the music. And everything else is pretty fucking amazing also.
>spent ~$3000
>spent ~$150
The shit games aren't the problem, OP. You are.
Go play monster hunter world NOW!
The game isn't pay to win (don't have a single thing that you can buy).
Has a lot of content, and always gets updates (free). It has 13 completely different types of weapons that change how you face the monsters.
The enemies (monsters) are a delight to face, each with a different mechanic.
One of the best OST in gaming, finish a hard quest is so good
Character design, weapon design, armor design, world design and monster are GOD tier
The fanbase is good, the game always has people to play, the coop is good, etc ...
>Thinking you have any right to call anything shit when you dumped thousands of dollars into a single MMO
>Or played Destiny 2 for more than 5 minutes
Fucking retard.
Imagine spending $3000 on Neverwinter. It legitimately wasn't even a good game when it released. $3000... ON WHAT? They wouldn't even let you play Race / Class combos my lord...
de-clutter your life, get rid of 95 percent of your belongings, get an emulation machine for old games and hook it up to your TV. Could be a micro ITX build or an android box, depending on how powerful you want it. Start a more fulfilling hobby and revert to your emulation machine whenever you want to get your nostalgia fill. I'm in the process of doing this, I never play games, besides the ones I loved as a kid, so I'm selling everything. I was once a collector, now all my collections are dusty and unused.
Your taste in video games is GARBAGE white boy
Play more stuff, stop being cynical
Not a single person in this thread thinks you have good taste in video games and you are sitting here defending your taste. Sometimes, it's just you buddy.
Try Total War: Warhammer? If you got cash to throw around that game could probably give you 100-300 hours before you're bored.
>iamsmokingone
You know what blows my mind with people, they're so scared to try new games sometimes.
Like it's pretty clear you have some ABSOLUTE TRASH in that stack. But guess what? You had a lot of fun playing it all and that's what matters.
man....i already went through all that for years....
i replayed ff6 and super metroid like 50 times...bahamut lagoon, star ocean, super mario rpg...i played any jrpg i could find that was translated as a rom....but you do have a point, I probably should replay ff6 again, its been a few years
Unironically a great suggestion for this MMO junkie.
>Not a single person in this thread thinks you have good taste in video games
you dont even know what games ive played
you are just judging me by these 3 fucking games im showing on my steam
grow the fuck up
That's just how it goes bro. You could consider getting burned out easily to be a blessing.
No your taste is just absolute shit. You are literally the equivalent of saying all literature is shit when all you do is read shitty hunger games rip offs.
Mmos are shit fucking games for the most part, little better than number simulators. The fact you find that fun says to me your a retard, but if you want some actual advice to expanding your terrible fucking taste try Halo. It's from the same people who made destiny so combat is similar you might enjoy it.
Also don't complain about dark souls, if you can't kill the first few enemies you are legitimately more retarded than my 5 year old son.
start revisiting consoles you never had the chance to play. I recommend Panzer Dragoon Saga for the Saturn. It's a really unique JRPG with mechanics that haven't really been done since.
No. You need to break the mold dude. Try genres you've never played before.
You're just going to play FF6, get that fucking "NEVERWINTER FEELING" and wham, you're back playing that shit again.
Buy a VR headset and play Alyx.
Buy Sea of Thieves and try to make friends with a 12 year old.
Buy a Switch and play Fire Emblem
Just don't play what you think you should. Pick something at random please. Save your self.
Nigga you're the one venting on Zig Forums about how much time you've wasted in MMOs and how you gave up on shit like Dark Souls after playing them for only 10 minutes, while also reminiscing about "the good old days" and how great Super Metroid and SMRPG and FF6 were. The only person here who needs to grow up is you.
BDO is a game that you can make gains for having it open 24/7 minimized to the tray.
Could be like 1 hour active and the rest just passive income.
It's why the game's playercount is always so high. If you actually play the game the open world is very empty. Deceiving game, smart jews.
Going off the top of my head I'd say yakuza kiwami was a fun game i've played recently
Because you spent fucking thousands of hours on that shit. You have literal shit taste, you aren't even a fucking normie who only plays cod or fifia, you are worse. You're some mmo junkie with just objective shit taste.
im not saying i wasted any time, just saying i dont like playing them anymore
