Playing platformer's don't interest me anymore and playing random normal peoples platform maps interest me even less. Honestly I have not liked a platformer game since I was as child.

Sorry to hear that. Has your interest in other genres narrowed as well, or is it just platformers that got the chop as you aged?


I have loved RPGs since I started gaming, and have loved JRPGs in general (although I do love me some WRPGs as well).  RPGs remain my favorite genre of all time by far and probably will till I die.

I never did like sports much, except super baseball 2020 on the SNES. Really the only driving games I liked were arcade top down stuff or Destruction Derby.  Any action adventure game has always had to be very specific, like Demon Souls or Dark Souls.

I liked games like Zelda and Metroid until they went 3D.  I must say that liking platformers ended when 3D became the thing as well.  Metroid was not really an FPS until Metroid Prime and when it became an FPS I always felt there were better out there like Halo and Team Fortress.  Zelda, I feel, had a bad transition to 3D and lagged other games in that genre every since.

Exploration and building games like Minecraft and soon No Man's Sky are a new thing for me though I feel somewhat in the same vein as an RPG.  I have loved open world RPGs, so I think it does fit for me that I would like Minecraft and No Man's Sky.
