People, I need help. Well, not in that way. Ok, well maybe a little in that way. Ahh who am I kidding, I probably need a lot.
Anyway....
What I mean is, I need your help in finding a new game to play.
I'm sick and tired of those story-driven games. Wild big open worlds that take 500 hours to explore. Where you sit thru cinematic cut scenes for 30 minutes. Where you have to constantly check maps and inventory. Where you craft tools, collect items to upgrade your weapons and health, etc.
I flick thru a lot of video gameplay on youtube to assess whether a game would interest me, even games that aren't story-driven, and I just can't find anything that interests anymore
Like, I am pumped for The Last of Us, Red Dead Redemption, and Battlefield V. Which are games that are story-driven and/or wild big open worlds. I dunno about No Man's Sky or other similar space games. But they seem like ones I'd still be interested to play.
I went thru a phase of loving those 2D platform puzzle games. Limbo+Inside, Little Nightmares, Unravel. But I'm over that now.
I am investigating perhaps 2D fighter games now. I bought Mortal Kombat XL and that's kinda got me interested, but I hate the over the top unrealistic nature of MK and such games. And the heavy amount of downloadable content always. Maybe Dead or Alive 4 will be up my alley?
I basically want a game that you simply load up, and get right into it, all user input on your controller, no cut scenes and stories, but not button-mashing either. Something that requires you to think, but is more simple in nature (2D, 3D, open world or not), not heavy with inventory/maps/weapons upgrades. Don't mind a linear story.
I also hate that many games have zombies and monsters in them. It's so unrealistic and done to death. Tho there are some great THEMATIC games that interest, like State of Decay or Fallout or Quantum Break, The Evil Within 2, Outlast 2, where the concept of the game is interesting and well-done. But I think actual game-play is what I'm driven for.
I dunno, maybe a sports game? But it doesn't have to be a real world sport. Could be a made up sport. Maybe a 2D fighting game? Heard great things about Injustice 2, but again seems over the top. Maybe UFC2 or UFC3? I wish there was a 2D fighting game that was say completely UFC or at least humans fighting with various martial arts or real world weapons. Maybe some other kind of game I've yet to know about.
