StaceyPowers Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 What is a fantastic game that you feel has a boring opening? I think I would fit pretty much any Bethesda game under this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 In all honesty, I would have to give a lot of my favorites this nomination. So many games from the old systems open up really boring. It's hard to even get into them at all. But if you can push through the first hour or so then the game gets to be something you enjoy the hell out of. FF8 is a great example of this killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Skyrim and FF8 are two very glaring examples of very tedious openings but once you get past that, they hook you in and you can't stop playing them. I should know because I have played FF8's and Skyrim multiple releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanna play the first 20 minutes of every game you've ever played to understand how that qualifies as boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if you stood outside for 20 minutes, you'd still be alive. To me it just felt pretty dull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
