Your Gaming Diversity

[Chaosolous]

Calm down, I can see some of you frothing at the mouth already. I mean your library of games.

Do you have a diverse set of genres you play or do you stick to specific types of games?

I play a lot of different genres. It's likely shorter to list what I don't play than what I do.

What about you? Do you play just a few types of genres or are you gaming the spectrum?

i have games on a few platforms of every genre. as long as it tickles my fancy then i will play it

[Zilkenian Davenport]

Mostly point and click and puzzle games.
I can only relax when my mind is tired, and for that to happen I need to think and learn for hours. Those games help greatly.

[Devsman]

I'm not into strategy, anything that ends in -like, or walking sims. I'm pretty sure I have the other major genres covered though, between here and my numerous other platforms.

Note that I don't consider multiplayer a genre.

There are some genres and categories that I will never play, I have tried some of them in the past and just don't like them.
For example team based sports games (like soccer, basketball and so on), multiplayer only games, and a few others.
I like to play games in several different genres that I like but there are some genres that I just don't like and want to avoid.)

There are some genres that are just not for me but overall I have quite a wide range of genres.

[Poyzo]

It changed as I got older. I pretty much stick to all forms of ARPGs: loot-fest games like Diablo, button mashing games like Kingdom Hearts, souls-like games and Monster Hunter games.

[always superspecial]

I think the only game subgenre I don't play is rts

[Shiro♌]

I do mostly stick to the genres I am familiar with, those being visual novels and FPS.
The other genres just come to me naturally over time, so once I get into them. If that happens, I do become open to more games of those genres, but mostly and usually seek the same genres over and over again because I do lack the motivation to keep learning new things.

Mostly FPS, sandbox games like Gmod, looking at getting some more RPG styled games since Fallout 4 has been completely ruined to me due to lack of mods that are superior to console mods (If I could get a refund on Steam, I would.) but I do have the Old Republic Games, I mostly play games with mods though since its a way for me to get to play something new often without having to bother with multiplayer unless I really want to.

When I was a wee lad
RTS, simulation, city builders, rouge-likes, JRPG's, platformers, VN's, 4x/grand strategy, rhythm games

Now
FPS, MOBA

[Defective Dopamine Pez Dispenser]

I can enjoy just about anything if it clicks with me, except (most - there are exceptions) fighting games, online-only multiplayer games, annualized sports games, and rhythm games. The older I get though, the more I value chill, sedate games that are more about vibe than challenge. And nostalgic kicks like digital pinball that I can just zone out to.

[GlaceonChireiden]

Not really diverse. I try other genres but never stick with them. I pretty much stay exclusively with platformers, jrpgs, and the odd fps game

[Masque]

Fairly diverse, but nowhere near as much as some here.

Action (GTA V, etc.)
Action Kids (A Hat in Time, etc.)
Action RPG (Everything from Dishonored, Far Cry, Horizon:ZD, Middle Earth, RDR2, etc.)
Arcade (Pinball FX, etc.)
Autoslasher (Vampire Survivorlikes)
Borderlands (Its own category, for me.)
CRPG (Divinity:Original Sin)
Driving (Everything from BeamNG to Forza to Sonic & All Stars)
Hack+Slash (Diablolikes)
JRPG
Metroidvania
Puzzle
Roguelike
Rogue-lite
RPG (Skyrim, Fallout, etc.)
Shooter (Control, Destiny, Half-Life, Metro, Serious Sam, etc.)
Sidescroller (Guacamelee!, Inside, Reventure, etc.)
Space (Everspace, No Man's Sky)
Strategy (4x games)
Supergiant (Another category just for my use)
Survival Craft (Astroneer, Valheim, Space Engineers, Starbound, Terraria, etc.)
Tower Defense (Bloons TD 6)
Unique (Everything from Cloudpunk, Death Stranding, Disco Elysium, Jazzpunk, Little Nightmares, NaissancE, etc.)
Vintage RPG (Arx Fatalis, Dark Messiah of M&M)
Zombies (Dead Islands, Dying Light, L4D2, etc.)

And 50 I haven't bothered to label yet.

That's just the categories I have, on Steam. What I *play* regularly is far less diverse.

I regularly play NMS and Hack+Slash, and that's about it. The rest I have very few hours in.

[Fajita Jim]

Yeah, I've made a point to build a diverse library. Everything from city building, civilization building, space exploration, ancient war, WW1, WW2, modern war, sci-fi, fantasy, horror, puzzle, racing and so on.
