I’ve been playing Witcher 3 for a few months now, but I did interrupt it to play Uncharted 4 as soon as it arrived on release day. I love the Uncharted series. I do have to say that Last of Us is my most favorite game of all time and I keep hoping, with every game I buy, to find something that engaged me as much as that one did.
I’m not what I would call “hard core” but do play several times a week for a couple hours at a time. I like games that are complex, story driven and develop characters. I also like games that I can play when I want and leave for a few days without having to worry about meeting up with others for a campaign that I have to stick with until it’s done. That’s why I stick with single player. Of course the only MP I’ve ever tried was Elder Scrolls Online and I was horribly disappointed. Inventory and crafting systems drove me nuts and I couldn’t stand all the other players running around seemingly getting in the way, etc.
I started out gaming on the PC with, beleive it or not, the all text games but didn’t care for them much because it ws hard for me to visualize. So I didn’t really start until Kings Quest etc. Life got inthe way and I din’t play again until years later when I got a Nitindo and a Zelda game. Then a PS3 and Elder Scrolls Oblivion. From there I was really hooked. I’ve found that unfortunately many games catch my interest, I get bored with some of them really fast if there’s not an interesting story or if it’s too shooter/combat intense and I, with not that good of reflexes at my age, have too much trouble beating.
Some of my favorites over the years have been Oblivion and Skyrim, all the Uncharted games, Fallout 3, the newest versions of Laura Corft, Beyond 2 Souls and of course Withcer 3 and Last of Us. Ones I’ve lost interest in for various reasons were Red Dead Redemption, Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 4, and the Assasins creed games. All of those had great promise and I may yet go back and try them again. But there’s many I haven’t tried yet but are really anticipating so going back will depend on if I find myself witout a game I’m really enjoying.
