I was just wondering. Mine are RPGs, strategy games and roguelike/roguelites. I really love games of all types within those genres and I don't really mind the graphics. I can enjoy both AAA games and old games or pixelated indies. I like both 2D and 3D games. The only ones I really have a problem with are the ASCII ones, since it's hard to learn what everything means. Most of the classic roguelike games are like that, so I didn't really touch them.

I can like games of most genres, though. I also like many shooters, for example, although it isn't the genre I tend to enjoy the most. There are lots of games I love within a lot of different genres, so it'd be hard to list them all.

What about you?

Various styles of RPG, Walking Sims, Adventure

The only styles I really don't like though are boomer shooters, twitch shooters, old school grind JRPGs, rhythm games and most platformers.

Mine are also RPGs (and you should have a look at this topic as I received countless advices on games i did not know about , and some were really awesome.

I also love chill games: farm games, city building (like old settlers, the one where you set your production chain sloooooooooowly, and then your spend hours to watch your people do all the work for you) and also point and click adventure games.

I'm particularly fond of games with a story (and after seeing me rant every time about that, this is not a scoop) I love good game wriiters like Jane Jensen, or Rhianna Pratchett .

If I should pick a genre I dislike, it would probably be horror or racing (the exact opposite of our famous Bacon .

But if there is a thing I dislike in games; it's zombies. I'm tired to see them everywhere. I somewhat tolerate them in heroic fantasy because usually the bestiary is big, but most of the post/apo games where everyone else but you is a zombie? No way.

Apart from that, I can play pretty much everything, particularly if it's weird .

Thanks for sending me the topic. I'll check it out and see if I can find something I like.

I don't really think I have a favorite genre. I really like games with good immersive stories but the genre can be just about anything.
But I also enjoy just mindless fun, going around blowing things up or exploring and finding secrets.
I couldn't pass a bit of racing from time to time either but I'm not going to actively collect racing games.

If you're asking favorite then it's platformers of any kind, I just like games about jumping around the place.I also love action-adventure, point and click adventure, puzzles, racing, shmups. And sometimes even enjoy FPS and sports.

However I do find it really hard to get into RPGs, specially if they're turn-based, so far I only truly enjoyed my time with a handful of RPGs in about three decades of playing games. If an RPG doesn't have a somewhat comedic tone to the writing to make itself tolerable and either clearly defined areas where random encounters occur or even better dispenses with random encounters altogether, I will drop it like a rock pretty quickly. I really dislike being ambushed by enemies. My tolerance for action RPGs is a bit higher tho.

I really like platformers too. My favorite is Super Meat Boy, but I also like Battleblock Theater a lot. I played many Mario games when I was around 9 years old, too, although Super Mario World is the only one I got to finish (with all the secret areas too.) I also completed the original Sonic. However, since I completed those last games a very long time ago, it's hard for me to say what I think about them right now, but I guess I'd still have fun with them.

I played dozens of platformers, no clue of how many in total, would not be surprised if the number is above a hundred since I hardly keep track of what I have played outside of a very incomplete list that only covers Steam games.
I haven't beaten Super Meat Boy but I did play a good chunk of it back in the day. I played Super Mario 1, 2, 3, & World but I can't remember if I beat any of those, however I have played through the entirety of Super Mario 64 at least three times. Battleblock Theater is still gathering dust in my library waiting for me to remember to play it.
I'm a bit of a Sonic fan. I played Sonic 1, 2, CD, 3&K, 3D Blast, Adventure 1 & 2, Heroes, Advance 1 & 2, both episodes of 4 + episode Metal, Generations (and a lot of level mods for it), Lost World, Forces, Mania, and Knuckles Chaotix; and some of the non-platformers/platformer hybrids like Spinball, R, Jump (original J2ME version), Racing Transformed, and The Murder of STH. There's probably more to that list that I forgot.

As to a random selection (copied from the Steam list of stuff I played) of other platforming titles: Bit Trip Runner 1&2, Braid, Blade Kitten, Blocks That Matter, Castle of Illusion, Deadcore, Default Dan, Dere Evil, DLC Quest, Duke Nukem Manhattan Project, Eryi's Action, Evan's Remains, Fez, A Hat in Time, Hiiro, Hue, Icononoclast, Kero Blaster, Limbo, Love, Mighty No. 9, MIrror's Edge & ME Catalyst, Momodora 3&4, Planet Alpha, Poi, Rayman Origins, Reventure, Rochard, Rot Gut, Shank 1&2, Shantae and the Pirate's Curse, A Story About My Uncle, Super Furball, Super Win the Game, Thomas Was Alone, Timespinner, Type:Rider, Vintage Hero, Yooka-Laylee + YL and the Impossible Lair.
Also I don't know if I should count Tomb Raider games since not everyone considers those to be platformers but I played 6 of those.

I could try making an extensive list if you want but it might take me a couple of hours since I'd need to remember every single platformer I ever played and I'd also need to go hunting for some of their names.

Sure, I wouldn't mind. I can read you without any problems.

I didn't think of Reventure, but I played it too. It's pretty fun. Also Broforce, which technically is still a platformer, despite being more focused on the action. I also played many of the Flash games made by Edmund McMillen that are in The Basement Collection, like Spewer. The End is Nigh too, also by Edmund, but I still didn't complete that one. I must have played many more Flash platformers when I was around 9 years old, but I can't remember most of them. I mentioned the ones I remembered the most.

Edit: I just rememberd having played the Flash version of My Friend Pedro, The Adventure Pals and a series of Flash games called Achievement Completed, by Armor Games.

My top three favourites are roguelikes, metroidvanias, and strategy games (often with a business or 4X variety.

I mostly enjoy racing games, some shooters. RPGs - the Witcher and Fallout type. Something that is story rich + has great scenery and looks good. I like survival games as well, but not the MMO - I abhor the trend. I love Long Dark, Subnautica.

Havent played them much since it takes up a lot of time, but I do enjoy also strategy games and especially city building games.
