I feel like we are misreading each other’s tones because you have come across bizarrely hostile/confrontational in this interaction from my perspective

My apologies, that is not my intent. You've mentioned in other threads how few games you play these days. I didn't know you've played several of those other games.LoathedVermin72 wrote:I feel like we are misreading each other’s tones because you have come across bizarrely hostile/confrontational in this interaction from my perspective
I tend to prefer FPS games with slower mechanics that don't require lightning quick reaction times.

i like games that focus more on team objectives and a slightly slower pace of play too. i'm not big on FPS for the most part though.

Re: (VG) Best FPS
No worries; I’m sure I often come off harsher than I think I do. I think we just have opposing tastes in FPS games; the slower ones usually just feel clunky and antiquated to me.Monkey_Driven wrote:My apologies, that is not my intent.

By the way, if we’re talking multiplayer, Titanfall 2 would be my pick.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

That world needs a slower pace/build-up and a more unsettling atmosphere. I hate how they just throw you into the chaos. Made it feel very cheap and “game-y” fo me.tragabigzanda wrote:The latest Doom is not very good. Totally worth the $5 I paid for it, but it got repetitive very quickly.

What do you think of team based/strategy FPSs?
Also, what do you think of Treyarch dropping the single player story mode from the new Black Ops?

I think it’s the death of COD. A COD game without a campaign is worthless. This will be the first COD game I haven’t bought since BO2.

It makes financial/business sense, but it's a huge bummer for the industry.

Re: Best FPS
I think the Bioshock and Half-Life games on PC are the best the genre has seen. Console shooters just don't feel very good in general to me.

Destiny 2 is a super polished FPS. Worth checking out.

Grind is better. Still has the top notch mechanics from the first destiny. Honestly, it's the best mechanics in my mind.
