genuinely curious: for the Gamers out there, what flavor of game would you say you're best at? worst at? and how do those games feel to play?
non-shooter PvE action combat comes very naturally to me (soloed my way though monster hunter world/rise with hardly any deaths, play glass elementalist in guild wars 2, etc) but I am and always have been absolute ass at rhythm and strategy games.
meanwhile, a number of my friends are the opposite - great at strategy or rhythm stuff, struggle with action combat. I mentioned to them that action combat is great for me because I don't even think about what I'm doing, I just hit monster with stick hee hoo brain empty, while rhythm and strategy make my brain overheat. and they were like... "what?? I have to think SO much about action combat though? rhythm/strategy games are MY brain empty activity"
Overall I'd say I'm average at most genres. Though, if a game doesn't have a core mechanic that's action oriented, I lose interest. So, most games I gravitate towards are platformers, fighting, most shooters, n' beat 'em ups.
I think turn-based RPGs is what I'm "worst" at. Like, in battles when I select an attack n' an animation plays I'm like: "Wow, that's fuckin cool... wish I had some control over that." I find myself feelin' bored with most RPGs. Even if the story or characters are entertaining, I lose interest with most of 'em. My brain just needs be pushin' buttons constantly lol
