Most of the video games I’ve played were pretty good. The only one I can think of that I didn’t like was MySims Kingdom for the Nintendo DS. Dropped that pretty quickly. It was a long while ago, but I’ll guess it was because there were too many fetch quests and annoying controls.

As far as being overhyped beyond belief: Celeste. As far as playing an entire game to the end just to finish it: A Way Out

I think Celeste is designed to be a super narrow experience - pure platforming. I found it pretty pleasant, but not what I'm generally looking to play. I personally don't think it's overhyped - the platforming design and movement is really very excellent. Having said that, not my cup of tea either.

My favorite game of the decade..

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Even if I enjoyed it, which I found it impossibly boring, I can't even begin to wrap my head around favorite of the DECADE. In 10 whole years you haven't played a single game that you enjoyed more than a simplified platformer? Mind blowing.

Different people like different things for all sorts of reasons. Not that mind blowing.

Just let people enjoy stuff. It's not something they need to justify.

They absolutely don't. Thanks for the education man.

What is wrong with liking 2d platforming?

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Nothing at all my friend, I LOVE 2D platformers. Mario World is one of my favorite games. But I don't know, they don't hit me in the feels like something like Fallout New Vegas or Metal Great Solid. Celeste just wasn't nearly enough content to be better than everything else from the last 10 years IMO.
