Favorite game genre?

[shipment]

For whatever reason, I have been cursed with an eternity of taste so superior that only a few games have tapped into it well, not counting indie demos. This being: Momentum-based, preferably action, side-scrollers/third-person platformers with expansive movesets that enable player expression and speed.

simulation games where i can do whatever i want and cheating is encouraged to simulate certain scenarios/conditions (for example a government subsidy in farming sim)
but ive gotten back into the pokemon games recently and i liked animal crossing
really just nothing thats high pressure
platformers are fun though

 

[Bobby Baccalà]

first person shooter. arena shooters more specifically

 

[Keyed zaryan]

Strategy. I like games where you win by exploiting mechanics rather than being skilled.

 

[Dagonet]

Tower defense and Rouge-likes

 

[BRING BACK GËG]

Beat em ups/hack and slash. I only actually like two of them, but one of them is my favorite game, and the other is objectively the best vidya game ever made (God Hand). My most played games are PVP shooters, but those could never be my favorite because I have shit internet and seethe everytime someone kills me.

I am once again addicted to gran turismo 5

I have a love-hate relationship with the Ford GT 2005. For one it's a pain in the ass to drive, but it's a necessity for some of the higher tier races until I get something more stable like a chaparral 2j

 

[Black Watch]

Pikmin 3

 

[shekel]

PSX-style low poly Boomer shooters and 2D walking sims about depression.

 

[supersage]

Probably open world, I don't like games where you're really limited to areas (like COD)
Then again I'm a bethesdacaca so

 

[lifesucksthenyoudie]

Crime sandbox/crime sim (GTA, Saints Row, etc.)

 

[worldatwar]

gta

 

[George Humphreys]

Survival sandbox / FPS

 

[Barry]

Strategy games. Either turn based or real time. Shooters too if it's something decent
