Title: Video Games you thought you would never play without boyah talking about them
Post by: Commander Fuckass on April 26, 2015, 07:33:32 AM
The Souls games (http://media.tumblr.com/e3a22e7c95ea680c6910d63269d0f3f4/tumblr_inline_mhb7iowXL31qz4rgp.png)


I would never had touched the series if it wasn't for Boyah talking about it so much. My curiosity got the better of me and here I am enjoying both Dark Souls II and Bloodborne emodood;

Pretty much anything outside of Nintendo.


Thyme was one of the biggest factors of me getting Steam.

i do but it is at my parent's house and i need to retrieve it
i've always wanted to get into dodonpachi they look sick
and yeah radiant silvergun too.

honestly the list of shmups that i want to play is huge. i own a saturn but i haven't gotten around to buying any games for it (and will probably just end up modding it cuz those games are expensive as fuk)

there's a lot, but some recent/noteworthy examples include:

-super metroid
-klonoa
-castlevania
-skyrim
-donkey kong country series

the only metroid i had any experience with before boyah was the original prime, which i honestly found kind of meh and led me to conclude that the series as a whole probably wasn't exactly for me

turns out i was wrong, it's just that the 2d games >>> the 3d ones and super metroid is now one of my favorite games ever lol

i was aware of the existence of both klonoa and castlevania, but as a child of the n64 era i had very little knowledge about and very little interest in them until john and kaz heavily suggested i play them

klonoa turned out to be a great decision, and i'm sure i'll feel the same about castlevania once i'm further into sotn

of course, thyme's enthusiasm about skyrim was the primary motivating factor behind my decision to play it, i almost certainly wouldn't have touched it otherwise because i was intimidated by its sheer size, i generally dislike first-person gameplay and despite my affinity for the souls games i hadn't been quite convinced that i could stomach hardxxre (w)rpgs yet

[spoiler]

and now skyrim is one of my top 5 games of the seventh gen lol #babbysfirstwrpg[/spoiler]

the dkc series is another i played at the behest of kaz and other boyagers and that also turned out to be an excellent recommendation, and i have a massive backlog of other boyager-suggested games that i'll gradually play through and more than likely appreciate

yeah now having played it i wouldn't call it one either but that's part of why i like it

i would get frustrated with a game like morrowind within ten minutes lol

i haven't played paper moiro yet so i didn't mention it but it's one of the many on my backlog (along with okami and a final fantasy and fallout 3 and a bunch of others)

rude

david's enthusiasm about rdr and uncharted amplified my own interest in them and they're of course some of the best of the 7th gen too lol

and there's also san andreas, which is good but feels somewhat archaic to a spoiled brat like me who played iv and v before it

honestly if i turn out to like vii i'll probably end up playing vi and ix and x anyway lol

because i already own vii (ty psn sales) i'll almost certainly be starting with that, but like i said if i find it enjoyable enough i'll eventually play the other good ones lol

my tastes were limited almost exclusively to post-snes nintendo first party titles before boyah lol, so when i got a ps3 (itself a boyah suggestion, though probably a premature one) i found myself relying on it (at least in part) for recommendations

at the very least, liking vii should make you want to play ix, since it's the same generation of final fantasy games and uses the same battle system

vi uses the same battle system too but is of course a snes game

x is entirely, absolutely, completely turn-based with no atb system, but is otherwise pretty similar.
