So what exactly have you played? This is hard to answer, because there are games I haven't played that are supremely popular, so I'm not really ashamed to of not played them. Witcher series Far Cry series State of Decay series, or really any zombie games not named Resident Evil Final Fantasy Mass Effect series Rainbow 6 Siege Diablo Dark Souls series Counterstrike Command and Conquer (watched friends play it, but never really did myself)
I’ve played 80% of those titles, some probably less than 10 hours but enough to understand the game. The others are ones that friends recommend or that I’ve watched on Twitch and thought I would like if I wanted to invest all the time required to be good or at least competitive. Being a casual gamer is something I’ve struggled with just in terms of being super dedicated to endgame content in an MMO or ultra competitive league play like a lot of FPS games. Dota was good for that simply because I was never talented enough to get out of the trench but I was good enough to understand how things worked and win conditions. That’s what makes that game such an awesome spectator esport. Other games in that group were awesome, but I either didn’t like the controls, or struggled with the in game mechanics.
Metro 2033 is solid, I'm looking forward to playing Last Light soon-ish. Have all the FEAR games in my backlog, enjoyed what little i have played over the years. In response to the title of the thread, on the PC side I'm ashamed for not being more than 10 hours into Witcher 3. Haven't played a Civ game in years. Still have not made it past the first mission in Homeworld. Haven't gotten more than 2 missions into Company of heroes. XCom 2 and Arma 3 haven't even started. For consoles, Resistance 3, never finished Infamous, the Ninja Gaiden games (on PS various generations), any of the Dead Space games.
I haven't even heard of some of those PC games much less be ashamed to not play them. Also is there shame in not finishing Ninja Gaiden? That shit is hard.
As a PC gamer and RTS nerd, I feel shame in those games (CoH and Homeworld are two of the best ever). I feel like I never gave the new Ninja Gaiden games a chance, but the little I played yeah they were really fucking hard.
Bought the Castlevania collection and started with 1. I had never played more than a couple of levels. I cannot imagine how anyone could beat that without the ability to save every few minutes
Dishonored recently downloaded it on my PC with game pass feels like I’m missing out especially after I just beat Deathloop
Im not in the it’s great camp, but 7-8 range on a scale of 1-10 for me. Better than Deathloop by a good margin to me though
FF6 is the only game I still have on SNES and I still break it out and play it through once a year. It’s a gem.
Played for about 30 minutes the other day because an Alan Wake update glitched the cutscene audio. Saw there was a fix for it, so went back to finish that. It's looking like I'll get to this series after the Februrary rush.
It’s the greatest trilogy in gaming IMO. The ending for three will always piss me off but it’s still a great game/series.
Finally got into Dark Souls. Playing the Remastered first one. The level design is outstanding. So cool how everything is linked to itself. Just got the Lord Vessel and gained the ability to warp
