This is one of the worst threads on this board, not because of OP but because of the replies. Shame on all of you. That said the only irredeemable genre is the dating sim.

I can't think of any genre that's irredeemable. There's some I don't like much personally, like most simulators, but I can see the appeal usually. I don't keep up with new stuff as much lately, maybe there's some mobile-only genre that is defined by pay-to-win mechanics. Something like that might be irredeemable I guess.

Anything real time is unplayable if you have a life outside of video games and image boards. Real time games and turn based games are literally designed with this in mind.

This board is slow enough to spot the same anon bumping multiple threads with the same odd opinion. Better than trashing JRPGs in every thread all night though.

This opinion isn't odd outside of the US. I can understand why you'd think it's strange on a website with mostly American users though.

Have you never heard someone criticise real-time games before? I remember when the RTS genre emerged and gaming started to pander towards action, which is stupid.

Why the hell does Ninja Spirit get brought up so much here lately, did ecelebs make a video on it or something?

>>5374456
Not real-time games in general, no. There are valid arguments against online FPS, MMOs, mobas, RTS, basically all the time sinks that compel you not take a breather. But I'm not sure calling Super Mario RPG a real-time game just because of timed attacks (like you were in the other thread) makes much sense since it's equally a turn-based RPG that you can pause and walk away from easily.

>> No.5374560

>>5374557
Stuff like fighting games, racing games, rhythm games and shmups are hard to binge play though due to quickly wearing the player out or even frustrating, that's why they're great if you're lacking free time and want games without much per-session commitment. Many turn based and story/immersion/simulation driven games on the other hand are the opposite in my experience. You have to play an RPG for hours to get anything out of it, so they end up being massive, merciless time sinks.

also i guess Walking Simulators where there is no game, just a long "interactive" cutscene where there are no choices just a path.

If I wanted to read a book or watch a movie, I'd do THAT instead.
