StaceyPowers Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Is there anything that is a complete deal-breaker for you with respect to trying a game? For me, third person was originally, but I can’t think of one at present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Strictly multiplayer or online only Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Online only. That is the number one deal breaker for me. Strictly first person only would be in second place, depending on the game. For example I love Hexen, and it's a first person game. For those unfamiliar with it, make Doom a medieval game and you have Hexen. But for games like RDR2 and Skyrim, if they were first person only, I never would have gotten into RDR2, and would have never given Skyrim so many (failed) chances to draw me in. The biggest thing that turned me off from Skyrim is the controls. no matter how I change them they are just clunky and unusable for me.

killamch89 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 If it's made by EA, Activision or any other company in this category of money sucking companies, is a deal breaker most times just because no matter how crappy the game is, they always charge full price for them.

m76 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Exclusive to the epic game store, or consoles. The first one is out of principle. The second one is because I might have a ps, but I hate playing games on console due to the controller. So except for a very few select games I don't buy games for playstation. Multiplayer only games Games that have no proper single player campaign can F right off. The inclusion of current day political debates in the game No real world politics should ever be a central theme in a game, unless it is historical with no ambiguity around them. Games by Developers / creators who have a history of degrading / looking down on the gaming community Examples: Patrick Soderlund, Adrian Chimleraz, Cliff Blezinsky...

But the game should have better gameplay. The deal breaker for me would be any game that is strategic. I mean, I love action and adventure games, but if the game is more kind of strategic one, then I prefer not to go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 There is a good friend of mine who would never pay for any game that is cost more than $40. It's the major deal beaker for him with any game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the major deal beaker for him with any game. I often don't go for games that cost more than that either. I don't have a lot of money, and don't bring in much, so I wait until the game either goes on sale, or I just don't buy it. I had Mario Kart and Paper Mario in my wishlist on my Switch, but the price for both of them stayed at $60 each, and they never went on sale, so I just lost interest and deleted them. I've gotten more into indie games anyway, as far as Switch games go. If they ever go on sale for a lot less (like %50 off) then I'll consider them again, but I doubt I'll buy them even then.

Family sedan Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 My friends don't live nearby, so a game has to have a single player feature, or I won't buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about MMO games? Don't prefer them too? You can play it online though. 🧐 And I guess there are few games only that doesn't provide single player. You don't have to search a lot for your choice. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
