As an adult, what video games do you enjoy the most?

Question

WhiteSteve · Accepted Answer

I play like ten hours per year, haha.

When I get into it, I’m primarily into sports games: Madden ‘05, NCAA Football ‘14, NHL ‘14, MVP Baseball ‘05, or old NES sports games, Blades Of Steel, Tecmo Super Bowl, Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out, etc.

Any Grand Theft Auto game I can definitely get lost in, too, especially San Andreas.

I bought an NES Classic that was modded with all the OG Nintendo games, so I have that collecting dust, lmao. I get into Black Bass when I get a chance, or the aforementioned sports games. I also like the adaptations of game shows and board games, haha: Family Feud, Wheel Of Fortune, Jeopardy, Monopoly (even though I swear it’s RIGGED). I should actually try to play tonight for a bit, I think I’ll have time.

I’ve also enjoyed stuff like Sim City, or The Sims, but I’m more into designing and furnishing sick houses/properties than I am playing the Sim’s life.

Oh, and I downloaded Stardew Valley on my phone last year. Lot of fun and very chill, but it was SUCH a time sink, I had to take a break. It doesn’t have to be, it’s actually very manageable, but I just would get caught up in “ok, ONE more day and I’ll turn it off”, which never happened, lmao. That’s actually the most gaming I’ve done, just because I can do it on the go, wherever I am.

As long as you play it together and its not a pvp shooter I am open to trying. I have played singleplayer rpgs as well but we mostly play them together switching or I just watch for the story. 🙈

Atm we mostly play palworld, Star craft 2 coop is something we played a few days ago and he started dragons dogma one again where I sometimes join in.

MrOracle · Answer

I refuse to play Internet-connected multiplayer games of any kind, and largely only play single-player games, so that largely eliminates anything modern.

In fact, the only game I play with any regularity - a couple times a month - is from 2008, and that's Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath. Unfortunately, the studio got bought out by EA, and as it always does, EA fired the original staff and tried to make their own version, which was Command & Conquer 4. That was a disaster, and it killed the franchise, and with it, all of the value of the studio they bought. That's actually EA's business model, I believe - they've destroyed more game franchises and gaming studios than any other entity.

I very occasionally will play an older game, but I have no interest in playing against strangers online, much less buying consoles or games that have DRM and can be disabled remotely at the whim of the company that made them. They're not getting a penny of my money - they can eat a dick.

I like games by riot like TFT and Legends of Runeterra, I liked Valorant but it was crashing my PC constantly so I uninstalled it. Then I find some single player games that I like and kinda rotate through them. Sometimes I don't play anything at all and just spend my time watching stuff other times I play a lot of Cyberpunk or Deeprock galactic survivor. Right now I'm waiting for Ghost of Tsushima to be released on pc. I just find a game I enjoy spend some time on it for a week or a month and then I'm done and move on.

winetime · Answer

I love a lot of different kind of games. I love my switch, ps5 and my game laptop one day I'd like a pc but- I need more funds for that. Hehe

Anyway! I love some intense games like Hunt Showdown, I'm learning pvpve and then the whole how to play shooters against real people. Definitely more interest in that more than before. DOOM I like too, just running and shooting and killing. Weirdly theraputic.. lol.

Also games like Divinity and Baldurs Gate. It's a lot of text and I'm not sure as someone who's not a native English speaker and had bad dyslexia when I was younger that definitely changed too.

Monkey Island- I actually first played these games last year but they were amazing. Curse was the funniest game I've played in ages. I probably wouldn't have finished it when I was younger. Perhaps I've become more patient... maybe. (˵ •̀ ᴗ •́ ˵ ) ✧

WWE 2k24, State of Decay 2, Civilization 3 complete, the last Fifa game, Super Mega Baseball 3, Fallout 4, Skyrim, Mass Effect trilogy, Dragon Age Origins, XCOM Enemy Within, but lately I keep getting the urge to play my old games like Shining Force, Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, Lunar 1 & 2, Iron Storm (Sega Saturn), Dragonforce, Command & Conquer, Toejam & Earl, etc.

I don't have all of my old consoles hooked up right now though due to not enough space, but I can play the old games that are on collection discs for the XB1.

DizzyDesii · Answer

I started playing video games around age 7 but lost major interest in games by the age of 21. Now I just play sims, GTA, or racing video games about a total of one month a year. To me, games seems childish/immature but like a good stress reliever when burnt out from everything else in life

RebelinSteel · Answer

A mix of RPGs, such as Witcher 3, Valhalla, Baldurs Gate 3, Fallout series but they need to release a new one with updated graphics. I also play driving games. Not keen on FPS but do the odd one.

Anonymous · Answer

played a lot as a kid space invaders and skiing games, lots of tv too.

don't do that now, it's so addictive and time waste. I'd rather do other things. I can see how people get into it... it's a fantasy land of endless play... usually of violence.

I found it hard to remove the images from my mind after playing, so I turned it off.

ManOnFire · Answer

I don't play often but when I do I like first person shooters, particularly when I'm a sniper. I am incredibly good at that I must say.

I like to play solo games that stimulate my brain, mostly on my tablet. That includes word games, geography games, solitaire, sudoku, and an interesting connect-the-pipes game.

I always loved strategy... but lately I started to like pvp shooters :D I wonder who I put unconsciously as a target :D

OlderAndWiser · Answer

I don't think it counts as a video game, because there is no shoot-'em-up action: Microsoft Solitaire. I am a grand master!

I have no problem with others enjoying them, but the closest I come to a video game is when I solve puzzles or play against a bot on Chess. com.

Tekken 8 because you get to study your opponent's habits and patterns and then break it down before they have a chance to do the same to you.

I find watching TV series and movies very boring. Damn, it may seem strange to you, but I don't even remember which movie I watched last. As for the answer to your question, I find ASMR videos relaxing, that's why I like these types of videos.
