[S0ULZB0URNE]

GTA like games.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Visual novels
Co-op focused games.

 

[DeepSpace5D]

I don’t play sports games or RTS. Barely have tried visual novels as well.

 

[RoadHazard]

Fighting games and most sports games (I enjoy a good tennis game and such).

 

[hyperbertha]

Coop looter shooters. Always designed around spongy grindy gameplay for minimum rewards and weak sense of progression, mostly to incentivise mtx purchases.

 

[Aguero9320]

Souls games
Fighting games (except maybe boxing)
Japanese games
Roguelike/lites

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Sports games
Party games
Rhythm / music games
Fighting games

 

[Alan Wake]

Sports games. Not that I don't like them but I just don't like them enough to invest the necessary time.

Same goes for open world games. I really like The Witcher III but I'll never be able to finish it. RDR2 was impressive but had no fun gameplay. The new Zelda games are just boring.

Also:
Games with endless farming and looting
Marvel/DC games
Gaas
JRPG
Sim City /building games

 

[SolidQ]

multiplayer games(old games was fun, now they like clown fiesta)

 

[Doctor Hades]

Miltary online/multiplayer shooters.

I honestly cannot think of any genre less appealing to play. I can't even tell them apart these days; they all look and play the same in my opinion. Long gone are the days of quality historical campaigns like those of Call of Duty 1 and 2 on PC in favour of repetitive (Zzzzzzzzzzz) multiplayer modes and 5 hour long OTT Michael Bay-style action focused campaigns with dumb AI and gameplay that resembles a linear on-rail lightgun shooter complete with "pop up" enemies to shoot.

 

[MScarpa]

SOULS and the ones where you die on purpose like Returnal. I forget the name. Oh and also Battle Royale. I'm old. I hate everything.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

I like almost any genre out there other than card games (Hearthstone, Marvel Snap, etc.) and those open sandbox survival crafting type of games that's been flooding steam since the original DayZ.

 

[Hendrick's]

1. Modern sports games: just too complex at this point
2. JRPGs: Too many cutscenes and awful stories/voice acting. Often boring and super easy combat
3. Battle Royale: don't enjoy the loop
4. Hero shooters: just not interested
5. Point and click adventure: too slow for my tastes
6. Fighters: these I actually like but am too old and horrible at them now

 

[justiceiro]

Tower defense games. I feel like I "outgrown" it. You set up your towers and then you sit there watching the game unfold without doing much yourself, just praying the tower dish another hit before the minion go through. I feel like I'm not playing the game, rather the game is playing itself.

Also, card games. Holy hell devs, we used cards when didn't had video games, why the hell did you put the cards back there? Why make cards out of demons, spells, and what not when you can actually make the dam demons and spells? It's just lazy for me.

 

[Topher]

Souls-like
Rogue-like
Fighting
Racing sims (prefer arcade like Burnout)

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Any Marvel or superhero game, barf!

 

[Holammer]

Sports games, at least the modern variety of them. Now they try to appeal to the actual sports fans instead and I don't blame 'em, probably far more profitable. Licensed stadiums with properly cut grass and accurate acoustics, uniforms and stubble on the athletes faces is more important than fun factor now.

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games are the exception of what used to be a vibrant genre for everyone.

 

[HL3.exe]

Sports
Souls-likes
Screeching Anime stuff like JRPG's
More pure simulators like flight or train
Fighting games
Superhero themed (with exceptions)
Most survival/craft sims, because of quick stagnation of the genre.

[NeptuneCL]

Sim games, strategy games

 

[tmlDan]

Probably Rhythm games, puzzle games, mobile games (i know thats not a genre), and Kart Racers.

I also don't like tower defence games, just dull and boring.

 

[lughnasadh123]

Rogue whatevers.
Visual Novels.
Sports games.
Strategy games.
Farm/social games.
Damn near anything with the term "cozy" in it.
Almost all turn-based combat games.
Battle Royales.

[Kakax11]

VN
RTS

 

[Rhazkul]

Online/multiplayer (too much Children and Teens)
JRPGs (too cheesy)
CRPGS (too much reading)
Survival (too much grind)

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

Fighters, stealth games, sports games, shooters, puzzle games, horror games. Yep, I'm mostly an RPG gamer.

 

[Laieon]

FromSoft games post-Demon Souls (I miss Lost Kingdoms)
Bethesda games
Fighting games
Multiplayer in shooters
Anything that advertises itself as being hard/Souls-like/roguelike
Multiplayer games that focus on balance and esports. Multiplayer games are best when they're random, chaotic, and feel like a party (or when they're Guitar Hero/Rock Band).

 

[Trunx81]

Everything under 60fps. /s

On a more serious note:

• Jump n runs
• Online MP

 

[Adam_802]

jrpgs
sports games
battle royale/hero shooters

 

[Last Hearth]

Shooters, either FPS or TPS, I think I'm just tired of that gameplay loop. I will play them if they are incorporated into an interested plot and setting. Like Starfield, or Portal, etc. But a game where all you do is shoot at people is not interesting to me.

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

Why would you waste your time making a thread to talk about stuff you have no interest in?

Surely, discussing genres and games you like would be more worthwhile and promote better more interesting discussions? Or even discussing games you liked but acknowledge their flaws.

This just seems like a recipe for propagating the perpetual negativity of discussion on the forum. I don't think it's even healthy.

[Closer]

Shooting genre.

 

[MrStauf]

MP games and souls like games.
Also lost intrest in command and conquer type games.

 

[John Marston]

Souls games.

I hear ya brother!

I do enjoy trying those games but I generally suck at them.

Except Remnant, which I completed.
That is why I don't get the "Dark Souls with guns" reference because I really had fun with Remant and now Remnant 2

Back on topic I'm immediately turned off by any "building" mechanic.
Just don't have the patience anymore.

You should have seen my "bases" in Fallout 4 they all looked like hobo camps.

 

[R6Rider]

You should have seen my "bases" in Fallout 4 they all looked like hobo camps.

 

[Jigsaah]

Porn games. Other than that I'll try pretty much anything.

 

[Fbh]

"Looter" anything (shooter, slasher, RPG, etc). Basically any game that involves playing through repetitive content as you farm for color coded "loot".
I find them monotonous and boring.

 

[Alan Silvestro]

Tactical RPG turn based, sport games, FPS, "war" games.

I'm really thankful characters basically tells you the solution to puzzles in action/adventures such as God of War and Uncharted.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

JRPG

 

[brian0057]

Literally anything by Hideo Kojima and all Sony studios.

 

[Comandr]

Strategy RPGs. Idk why I can’t bring myself to enjoy them. Move five squares this way and turn that way and -ugh I just don’t care. Love turn based RPGs though. I don’t get it.

 

[_Ex_]

Online multiplayer games.
Games that have no clear endpoint/ending.
Sports games in general.

[trent_the_gent]

MOBAs.

My irl friends love League of Legends and have played probably thousands of hours of it over the years.

I played 2 and a half matches with them a couple of years back and was just bewildered as to how anyone could enjoy these type of games.
