looks at all the games I played for over 300 hours
Oh no.
“Wait, it’s all visual novels?”
Game is okay I guess.
God I wish I could play this game again with a fresh slate and no knowledge of anything again. Story, style, soundtrack, and gameplay all in an endearing package.
I’ve never played it
Me neither but Winter is coming and my pile of shame recently got Space Marine 2 added …
But one day I will be old and retired. I will only die when I played them all!
That’s what I’m hanging on too. On the upside though my pile doesn’t grow so much now days since so much that is released is a steaming pile of trash
Persona 5 is the only game in my life I ever played and made my eyes hirt, it just felt nauseating
Try playing Dark Forces, or the original Doom or Quake. You’ll get motion sickness really quick because of the frame rate of those games. Somehow I managed to acclimate to them back in the day, but I attempted to replay the originals of those games in the last decade, and got extremely nauseous.
i played my fair share, of them and more, never once in my life had a problem, literally only persona 5
probably doesnt help i never liked the direction of the game, or the characters
I will admit that I’m susceptible to motion sickness, but damn. Those games fucked me up as an adult.
dang, unfortunate
Make him play Digital Devil Saga if he wants a game
I refuse to play games that I can’t quit within 2 minutes of starting it. Persona series is one of those that I refuse to play. My time is way to valuable to commit an hour or more to 1 activity.
So do you just play on Xbox where you can jump between titles and have it save your game state?
Yes actually. It’s my favorite part about Xbox.
So no games with words at all I would assume? Shit even a round of Tetris is longer than 2 minutes.
That’s not valuing your time, friendo. That’s undiagnosed ADD.
I get that, however before getting on meds I had no problem playing RuneScape for hours straight with YouTube on the side. No idea why I was fine with literally running in circles for 6 hours straight but making eye contact for 2 minutes was painful.
You’re joking, right ?
I think you’ll miss out on a lot of great games thinking that way! Sometimes needing to commit time into a game is where a lot of the value comes from in its experience, and persona is one of those series.
I still haven’t played so many games because of opening cinematics and overly long and boring tutorials for this reason. It sucks because I can get super into a game if I just get over that. Like Baldur’s Gate 3 was a chore to get into, but I knew I would absolutely love it and now I think it’s probably the best game ever.
So you won’t watch an hr+ movie?
No i refuse to watch movies. The last movie I’ve seen was Lion King 1/2
You’ll never see it coming~~
You’ll see that my mind is too fast for eyes
This is me and Persona 4.
There’s a lot of good game elements. But it’s SOOOOO MUCH. It’s like a damn visual novel with bits of game.
And I’m sure the payoff is great, since the Persona games are very well received. But after a long day, I don’t want to think. I just want to mash buttons until the pain stops.
If you like monster collection games. Check out shin megami tensei. More rpg than graphic novel. Same overall concepts but none of the daily dating sim like aspect.

Ah, you’re back
“120 hour anime series” is fair, but “occasionally click a button” is not. If P5 qualifies for that, then every turn-based JRPG ever does.
I was gonna say, that sounds like the first 50 hours or so of FFXIII
Telltale
Peak isn’t it? The expansion for the remake of 3 launched too, go play it!
Metal Gear 4 lol

Not necessarily, I for one hated it, and I was a big MGS fan until then. I was so frustrated not getting to play.
That’s true!
MGS5 did it very well! (That’s if you made it passed the long intro)
It’s chapter based. So you get 1-2 minutes of introduction, then tossed into the field. Story follows more gameplay like cassette tapes or walkie talkies while you explore, with cutscenes when you hit certain points.
After MGS5, I find it hard to play the older ones with its 10-30 minute cutscenes.
It’s funny you praise 5 for that, but as a huge fan of the series I think the best description I read of mg5 was: “it’s simultaneously the best stealth action game out there and the worst metal gear game in the series.” Lol
I think the open world kinda ruined the pacing of the story and it all felt kind of disjointed in comparison to the linear games. That’s coming from someone who LOVES open world games too. Still lots of fun though
I LOVED MGSV… but it was the first Kojima game I’d ever played where I thought “This could use more cutscenes.”
I don’t have time for games that long
plays Factorio for the 274th hour
A friend of mine tried to convince me to get Factorio a couple days ago. Couldn’t help but feel like he was a junky trying to get me to try just a little bit of heroin.
It’s more like crack or meth. You start a gamenin the early evening and suddenly it dawn’s outside. I hate myself for loving a game which basically simulates the job of “process optimization”
wait until you find out about Shapez 2
Hey if your actual job is process optimization, you get to enjoy it twice as much 🥲
I’ve never played factorio, but I am an industrial engineer and my builds in the minecraft mod create make my wife sad
Do not even come close to Factorio or it will be your Ex Wife. Trust me Bro!
Satisfactory, however, will be 100% totally safe and good for that marriage. Trust me bro!
Dyson Sphere Project is exactly what that marriage needs! There’s a multiplayer mod so the wife can show him good optimization.
Whatever you do, don’t install clockwork and valkerien skies. You maybe become but a memory to your wife
I started playing Satisfactory with a friend a couple weeks ago.
I realized yesterday that it’s basically my job if it was fun.
I always describe it as a puzzle game where all the puzzles are designed by an idiot and that idiot is you.
The spaghetti must grow
As a chef, the spaghetti can fuck off. I want to build lasagna.
274? In Germany, we call that ausbaufähig. The factory must grow.
Is that a single save, or your total playtime?

In Persona 4, it took me something like 5 hours before I got to my first combat scene. Then another few hours before I got into a dungeon.
