From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

I bought every FromSoft game up to DS3 during various sales because I'd heard unanimously how amazing they were.
Then I eventually played Bloodborne. Haaaaaated it. Never touched any of the other games I bought, and never plan to.
What did you hate about it? That series is great for the people it clicks with and fans are very vocal about it, so I totally understand.
I went the opposite direction in that it took Bloodborne for the series to click with me. The other games (this was pre DS3) didn't resonate until after Bloodborne.
I guess I sucked at it. I played for 10-12 hours and didn't beat a single boss. Graveyard Werewolf Dude and Weird Bridge Monster would just wreck me on the rare occasion I could actually make it to them.
After giving up, I learned online that shooting your gun is not actually a range weapon, but it's meant to parry. Stuff like that -- unintuitive mechanics you'd only know about if you were nuts-deep in "the community" -- I have little patience for.
And mostly, I'm not playing videogames to prove myself to anyone. I want to have fun -- not torture myself.
All fair criticisms. It's not for everyone.
I don't understand why people like Animal Crossing so much as it seems very dull to me, but I can't hate on anyone for liking it either.
The variety is what makes gaming great.
