Walking simulators
Something like outer wilds should be fine but i get easily annoyed from just running around
Even that i know that in some cases its very fast running around or something

Basically any SRPG but if I had to choose one I would say Fire Emblem; this gente always leaves me bored with how long combat takes.

Though I am powering through, on easy, in Hundred Line Last Defense Academy because the story is that good.

Grand Theft Auto

The whole concept is profoundly uninteresting to me

And I feel there is a fundamental tension between the enjoyable part of the games (Over-the-top city chaos with lots of explosions, often aided by cheats) and what the games WANT to be (serious crime dramas I think?)

Same with me. Can't get into Pokémon. Love the show though. Same with zelda...super boring.

Witcher. I tried. The series was great though.

Xenoblade Chronicles

The turn based but also realtime combat makes me so uncomfortable.

Animal crossing.

And back when this was a thing, Candy Crush.

Any of the big popular RPG series. I got through Mass Effect 2 (it was on offer for a quid) but have no desire to go back, and I know that’s one of the more action-based games. I also played Witcher 3 up to Skellig but just can’t bring myself to finish it.

Mega Man, no matter how much time I put into trying to grasp the controls and mechanics, it just never clicks.

Bioshock. I tried the first game and liked the story and atmosphere, but got bored of the gameplay every time I've tried it

[–] DrSteveBrule@mander.xyz 2 points 1 week ago

I love the first BioShock but couldn't get into the other two because it didn't feel like they took the gameplay anywhere new.
