First thread?

I was reluctant to try This War Of Mine.  I thought it sounded pretentious, the "game-play" looked dull, and I normally pass on anything side-scrolling.  However, I kept reading atypical words of praise for it and a Steam sale made me jump.  I ended up loving it and putting a ton of hours into it.

On a related side-scrolling note, I decided to try a Rayman game on Vita.  It also had a bunch of praise and I was thinking that maybe I should give platformers another chance.  I'd grown sick of them years ago but it had been forever since I'd played one.  I ended up remembering all the things I dislike about the genre and quit after a few levels.  At least I now know for sure and no future game will tempt me.
