I never finished Deus Ex.
Lol same, I'm actually playing it right now and it seems a real pain in the ass. Is it really that much of a stealth game btw or am I just awful at it? Also, what's up with the hundreds of controls, if I had sex with my cousin my children would still not have enough fingers to play this game.

There's a bazillion ways to solve every level. Stealth helps but you can go full retard and just blast your way through if you really want.

Also, I just thought of a new confession:
I thought Portal 2 kind of sucked. Portal 1 was the perfect game. The writing was tight, the levels were perfectly crafted, and the game ended precisely when it needed to. Portal 2 beats every joke and gameplay gimmick into the ground, through the Earth's core and out into space.

My character in Morrowind, Avras Telvanni, used to "free" Khajiit and Argonian slaves by training his Hand-to-Hand skill on them.

P.S. Never ask him why he's good at throwing hands,

My PS4 came with a download code for COD:MW2 but the sticker on the code peeled the paper it was on off. I was upset about it at the time but I didn't care that much for it because I mostly bought a PS4 for different games and just decided at the last moment I'd get a bundle because why not. I was planning on buying the Steam Deck recently but it's sold out, leaving me with more money than expected and more free time so I decided I'd buy COD:MW2 on my PS4 to see if the game was really good or not.

I use guides on a lot of older games instead of spending hours following a dead-end route. Games like "I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream" are what I'm talking about. Besides that, I've spent money on phone games (and don't regret it) and I love to save scum.

How can you not use a guide on a game like that? I tried to play it and refused to ever use a guide. I spent hours at the first screens of the levels and got nowhere and decided screw this, this is not fun or interesting.
Shit game, and a disappointing story!

My first time ever playing Doom was on the SNES.

View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fTKGsq5Oa4

What can I say? I was a dumb kid who didn't know any better. I actually really enjoyed it at the time, so much so that I got my hands on the original DOS version, which I obviously kept playing instead. I went back to the SNES port recently out of curiosity... it's even worse than it looks. There's nearly a second of delay between a button press and it registering as an input. I can still appreciate it today as a seriously impressive technical feat, but as a game, it's borderline unplayable.

I still haven't beaten Nethack without cheating.

I also like to play SaGa games.

I have implemented a telemetry module in not one but TWO RPG Makers games. It is designed to record every choice the player makes.

I would not be suprised if those two indie games were the only RPG Maker games with telemetry in considering its not a thing that exists by default.

- Almost all of my Xbox 360 games were pirated before chipping no longer worked.

- I always run away and hide when I'm invaded in Fromsoft games because it's just fucking annoying and wish I could play alone or with my friends in private.

- I spent way too much time and money on League of Legends.

- I save scum a lot. Trying to correct my ways right now.

- I never played the Metal Gear Solid games, Sonic, Banjo Kazooie, Pacman, GoldenEye, Zelda, Metroid, Duke Nukem, Final Fantasy, Silent Hill, Resident Evil, and probably many more classics.

That's all I can think of at the moment.

+ I peaked plat in LOL, despite pouring my life at that game i still suck
+I savescum in wesnoth
+in Crawl, i only play minatour fighter because it is simple
+I never killed more than 3 bosses in any DS game, i played 1 2 3 and demon souls.
+i didn't get the true ending in bloodstained ROTN because the game was boring
+I ran a scamring in Metin2. I would put 10 items side by side in shop but make one of them 100 times more expensive than others and people would buy all of them without realising one of them is really expensive. I got soo many death threats because of this.

I wasted a lot of time playing the sims as a kid

First time I played msg3 I got trapped in the section you gotta dress up like raiden so I just kept going back and forth for maybe a month.

When I was younger i played a lot of dating sims, from when I was 9 to when I was 14 I must've played 100+

I think most jrpgs are boring and never played any final fantasy.

Every single game I owned on the ps2 was a copy.

I used to play age of empires 1 in sandbox, make 4 tribes be my allies vs 3 enemies, then when we defeated them I would attack one of my alllies and take over their things and repeat till I won the game.

I never liked the half life games.

I never played baldurs gates 2 depsite loving 1.

- I have a really bad habit of criticizing games I haven't finished yet, sometimes my criticism is valid if it's about the gameplay or something along those lines, but I tend to say the game has a shitty story or bad characters despite not even getting to its half.

- Following my prior sin, I also have a huge amount of games I've bought on steam and I haven't finished or even played them yet, I've got probably around 40 games that I have to finish.

- I think my last sin is probably not playing horror games cuz they're scary, I know it's kinda dumb but I always get too scared and stop playing them after a couple of hours.
