| Veknoid_Outcast said: I would say action-adventure. It's an amorphous, hard-to-define genre, but to me it encompasses many of the great series and games of the last 30 years. It combines all the fast-faced, frenetic combat and movement of action games with the more thoughtful and mentally challenging puzzles of adventure games. So it's rewarding on a visceral level and on an intellectual level. Even games that aren't strictly action-adventure games often benefit from the addition of action-adventure elements. |
@bold Yes I totally agree with that! My favourite genre is platforming (I think it's because i'm a nostalgic person and I only played platformers during my childhood), but if you add action-adventure to platforming (perhaps a dash of openworld as well) you have a truly epic game. Think Jak and Daxter: the precursor legacy-ish
