DARK SOULS!!! It's one hell of a game that I had to keep procrastinating because I already knew it's not going to be cakewalk before I summoned up the courage to play. I think it took me over 5 months to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 RDR2. I've never been a fan of western games. Custers Revenge was a small factor in that and warped my view for a long time. But also I just found them boring as hell. But then watching my girl play RDR2, the interest started building in me, and (after about a year or so) I ended up playing it like a fiend.

Heatman Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Another one is CANDY CRUSH SAGA. I really hated the game to be very honest with you but I had to push myself to play it in order to teach my Mama how to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 If it's a game that you need to think and maybe maths are involved then those are the challenge games for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, one game I remember now is Halo. When I initially played the game, I was quite impressed. I like the new alien world, exploring new things, and ofcourse those funny aliens. I was a noob at that time, but now I have much experience in FPS games. So, this game would be the one that had really pissed me off many times. 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my!! You hate mathematics like I do. The simplest of calculations gives me migraine. The only math I love to do is counting my money 😂. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get better along the way with many trails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m76 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Believe it or not playing Mass Effect has taken a lot of convincing from others. On my first try I dismissed it as a drag with terrible inventory, and clunky shooting, halfway through the first Citadel segment right after Eden Prime.

Heatman Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Also Ninja Gaiden Black is another pretty tough game that took me a while to get myself into because anytime I get into playing it, I get killed almost immediately like I'm not fast enough.

killamch89 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Dark Souls really takes a lot out of you because it's a very unforgiving game. Everything has to be strategically thought out and properly calculated or else you'll fall miserably time and time again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not games that you pick up easily to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster Hunter is also a game that takes some getting used to as the boss fights tend to be really unpredictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say that I learned exactly what a punching bag goes through when you're being pummeled mercilessly by all those enemies and can't even counterattack especially when they corner you.
