I want to recapture the magic of gaming. I have over a thousand games, but hardly want to play any of them. I'm tired.
There are no good RPGs any more, I would have to replay classics to have any real fun it seems. Same with aRPGs.
Save my gaming soul, Sup Forums, lest I become a normie. I never want that to happen as if it were even possible, I'm too far gone now.
I'm becoming less defined as days go by. Fading away, and well you might say I'm losing focus. Kinda drifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself. Sometimes I think I can see right through myself. Less concerned about fitting into the world, your world that is...cause it doesn't really matter anymore. No it doesn't really matter anymore. None of this really matters anymore.
Yes I am alone, but then again I always was, as far back as I can tell. I think maybe it's because you were never really real to begin with. I just made you up to hurt myself.
Do you play primarily on PC?
Games have more polish than ever, and less depth and fun than ever. Games are killing gaming.
Yes.
>I have over a thousand games, but hardly want to play any of them.
How would you know if they're any good if you haven't even played them? Do something more productive instead of lamenting about what to do with your spare time
Ys and Trails are pretty great as far as JRPGs go. And WRPGs are having a renaissance currently.
Just sit down and force yourself to play something good for an hour or so and you won't have any trouble keeping on going, the hard part is getting started.
There's your problem. Most PC gamers i know tend to buy 100s of game on steam but never play them.
>WRPGs are having a renaissance currently.
Can you give any examples?
I've already played out the Ys series, and Trails.
Wasteland 2
Legend of Grimrock 1 and 2
Underrail
Age of Decadence
Serpent in the Staglands
Shadowrun Dragonfall and Hong Kong
Pillars of Eternity
Grim Dawn
And there are a bunch more coming up, like Battletech, Copper Dreams and supposedly Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky (creators of Fallout and Arcanum) are working on something new at Obsidian, not to mention the prospect of a new WOD game from Paradox. The last few years have actually been fantastic for RPGs.
The only type of RPG I really feel like we're missing currently is a good infantry combat RPG like Jagged Alliance and Silent Storm (what I wouldn't give for a new Silent Storm). 7.62 HC is an admirable attempt, but its just too buggy and broken.

I'm not sure what beef you have against Action RPGs but whether you like it or not, they are in fact RPGs.
Posts like this are retarded in general but you don't even know half of the list, whyd you bother posting?
I did mention aRPGs in the OP, so they were a fair recommendation by the guy.
Right now I'm enjoying Hitman 2016 and Street Fighter V, looking forward to new zelda game in march
I will say that The Witcher 3 has been one of the greatest games for several years now. Though I played the shit out of it, and am worn out. I need a break before I go back and do NG+ on it.
Hitman 2016 is so fucking good, I just wish it didn't have that godawful always online shit which gives most of the game's content an expiration date.
Do you roleplay as the bottom in SFV?
I'm pretty middle ground in my tastes, leaning towards a strong core mechanics. I feel most people that complain they run out of enjoyment for games won't give a genre outside of their favorite few a fair shot by judging greatly differing genres by the same standards and by people who will shit on any game just because it's anything less than exceptional. a game can still be decent and enjoyable even if it's not amazing.
Solve as many of the following as you possibly can.
1. Fix your depression.
2. Stop spending every second of free time you have on video game related websites, regardless of quality or traffic.
3. Stop having video games in every single thought you have throughout the day.
4. Stop pirating so many games. The more options you have, the more bored you will get at a faster rate. Without any sorta investment, you get lazy and expect a video game to be mindblowing every single nanosecond and when a nanosecond of it has some downtime and isn't reinventing the wheel, you toss it aside for another free game you didn't pay for, only for the cycle to never end until you get stuck playing that one popular video game you hate but can't quit for a bunch of reasons.
Good luck.
No I play urien, so whoever I'm fighting is usually the one who ends up getting fucked
Gaming is dead because the original gamer audience ousted themselves as a majority goobers and Sup Forumstards not long ago. The rest of us cannot wait until devs finally stop catering to you shitheads.
Have you ever thinking its because you are old?
Don't play for a couple of months...problem solved. Even when you want to play don't.
Game creators churn out mass produced trash now that normies and geeks lap up like starving children
The only games I've loved playing the last couple years were Bloodborne and Inside
The amount of good games now are so scarce that I'm seriously considering creating my own game
The problem is I have absolutely no idea how to program games, and how to create and program 3d game enviroments and creatures, and how to create and program characters to play with inside these enviroments
Play games outside your comfort zone. You won't recapture the same type of magic you're talking about but you may discover a new type along the way, and not having old favourites to judge new games against will help you appreciate the games more for what they are rather than being perpetually disappointed that nothing measures up.

The real problem is that you don't have the balls to commit to game development because lacking knowledge and skill isn't a problem if you're willing to learn and improve, especially nowadays when any retard could make a game.
Some people truly are gifted
I've looked into how to make a game, but there are so many aspects that I don't know where to start
Do I start with creating a character?
Do I start with creating game enviroment and levels?
Do I start with creating modular assets for game enviroments and levels?
Do I start with creating creatures for the game enviroment?
Do I start with creating a gameplay system that interacts the character with the world around him?
What programs do I use to do the above?
You start by working on a completely unrelated game that will teach you the basic knowledge you need to start planning your big project. Once you do some basic games, hell even something like a Pacman clone, a Gradius clone, an escape the room game and some other basic shit the question of where you should start won't be an issue because you will have a general idea of how game development works and where to put your priorities. Otherwise it's all pointless because even if you plan your game out meticulously it will all fall apart once you start working on the project.
I've made a Sprite game on scratch, I made the sprites before making the game
Would for a game on a program like Unreal would you make the assets before making the game?
