Types of Games You're Just Not Good At?

[DarkDesertFox]

I've noticed I just plain suck at those 1v1 arcade styled fighting games. A lot of it involves memorizing combos which I am too lazy to do. Especially since they always label the buttons with some weird letter like K, D, R, etc. Despite how bad I am at them I love these fighting games. I've been playing Soul Calibur games for years and I'm decent at best compared to online players. Are there any games you're not good at?

Every game that requires skill.
I suck at all of them.

I'm terrible at platformers. I didn't grow up playing them because I was more interested in other genres, so getting into them in more recent years has been rough.

 

[Psydye]

Strategy games. Fighting as well. There are definitely others, I think.

after playing splatoon for long enough I realized how much I suck at shooting and aiming, I've also played a lil bit of call of duty with my brother before and could't shoot a thing, I'm also not very good at most "stealth" missions in any game really..
there are also some types of puzzles in games that I'm just not very good at, games like the older tomb raider I'm good at but others like some captain toad levels and mario vs donkey kong not so much, that includes those awful "maze" puzzles which I suck horribly at.

i'm really bad at most fighting games... especially if it's multiplayer. ;;

Fighting games and some strategy. Just can't button mash like a pro in games like Persona 4 Arena or Street Fighter or Tekken.

 

[kassie]

oh fighting climax, i was actually pretty good at that game.

uhm for me it's FPS games. my suckiness truly shines in online multiplayer.

 

[Alienfish]

fighting games.. i hate learning all the combos so i'm just smashing **** lol.

also platformers if they are on computer.. just unless you are good with a controller it's ech.

also fps unless it's computer.. i mean do you really need all those controller buttons fff

I guess most horror games. It's less that I'm bad at them 'mechanically', more that I'm just 'easily spooped' with horror games so I end up screwing up a lot and spending most of the game hiding behind a cupboard or something.

RTS's as well. I love 'em, but I suck so hard at them.

And most sports games, pretty much any of them involving a ball at least. I know pretty much nothing about them, so I always end up breaking rules or 'doing fouls' and stuff like that.

I've noticed I just plain suck at those 1v1 arcade styled fighting games. A lot of it involves memorizing combos which I am too lazy to do. Especially since they always label the buttons with some weird letter like K, D, R, etc.

The weird lettering is a 'leftover' from the Arcades.

I don't understand why they can't just label them with the consoles own button layout though since it is a hassle working out that games specific layout, since they're usually always different for each franchise.

Fighting games that were never even in arcades that do this annoy me even more though. At least an arcade port has 'some' excuse.

a lot of turn-based RPGs where you have to use strategy to win.

depends on how they are build but yeah.

also annoying RTS/strategy games that are way too elitist.

 

[kassie]

reading other people's responses makes me realize how many other types of games i suck at
> adds sports & rpg games to the list

 

[Alienfish]

i avoid sports games unless it's mario kart/fun racing like midtown madness(old ones) so I cant really say how i would do but eh sports are a lot of boredom no matter the media..

 

[Feloreena]

RTS games. Probably one of the reasons I don't find them very enjoyable.

yeah same, like supcom and those. ech no.

the warhammer games can be fun though, like dawn of war II and whatnot

 

[Shimmer]

I'm terrible at fighting games like Super Smash Brothers. I just can't move my fingers fast enough. X_X Plus, I always pick the cute characters and usually (not always!) the cute characters are the weakest. xP

Same. I'm not very good at sport games (unless it's the Mario and Sonic Olympic series) and I'm bad at RPG games with turn-based combat. Thus why I have not beaten FF 13-2 yet.

 

[DJStarstryker]

Mainly just fighting games. They're fun, but I have always been kinda bad at them.

 

[Zane]

PUZZLE GAMES
RPG's with tons of content (i lose track of stuff too easily and can't figure out what i'm doing)
Side-scrolling fighters, mostly the ones that require those long azz button combinations to do any of the good moves.
