Topic: Hate to, but gotta

Basically, this thread is about games you hate, but play anyway. Just put down the game/series and add your reason.

Mine is Call of Duty. I hate it oh so much, and yet I've gotta play. Reason being that it is the only FPS that has splitscreen currently on PS4, that I know of. Otherwise I'd play BF4, Killzone: Shadowfall, etc.

I don't because that's a dumb idea.

Now if this was bad games, I miiiight change my mind because there are a couple of games I know aren't actually good but I enjoy (Enter the Matrix) but if I hated a game, I wouldn't play it.

Need for Speed Undercover is the proof I'm a masochist.

I'll never understand why someone would put up with a game they genuinely dislike. :/

Certainly the OP means he hates the idea of Call of Duty or something like that. Surely he/she wouldn't actually play it if he/she hated every second of it.

Youtube profit.

that's the only answer tbh

or you know, actual game critics (TAKE THAT REV3-i don't actually dislike rev3)

The Kingdom Hearts series. I just gotta after investing so much time on the series.

...If I hate a game, I'm not going to play it...lol

So they don't consider that their money has gone to waste.

While I don't hate animal crossing, I did play City Folk longer than I would have liked so that I could reach a point I could consider the game complete (Complete museum, perfect town, all house upgrades, all golden tools, all structures built, highest HRA) so that I could put it down and be satisfied that it was done.

Final Fantasy XIII...oh wait

If I dislike a game I don't buy it nor play it. Would be a waste of money.

You can't know for certain you won't like a game before you try it. It's like saying you don't like a particular food before tasting it.

It's more than enough to dislike the genre.

If I don't like fish, I'm not gonna order salmon at a restaurant (despite not having tasted it)..

There is always an exception to the rule. Generally I don't like racing games, but I enjoy Mario Kart and TNT Racers. That's also why I said "won't know for certain."

One is Simulation (e.g. Forza) & the other is a Kart Racer (e.g. Mario Kart). I consider those as different genres.

Okay if you're going to split hairs, well then NFS Underground was a racing game I enjoyed. But then if we were to split hairs Mario Kart is a Kart simulator. A lot of the fundamentals are the same, managing speed, avoiding obstacles, memorising track layout etc.

Good for you I guess. I wouldn't.

Pretty much every JRPG's last segment. I just feel the need to see the ending even if it's totally predictable. Usually I find the gameplay has gotten stale by the time the game is wrapping up though, so I don't do the bonus dungeons.

Also, a lot of MMO's get me with their sunk cost thing. I'll keep playing after I stop finding it fun just because I feel like I need to get my value's worth. Yeah, I know that's stupid and it's how MMO's nab players in the first place, but still

i hate games that are super hyped and i seem to be the only one not gettng why.

i wont name those games because im sure a lot of people would hate me then

Every Pokemon game from the fourth generation until now (and probably until forever). I keep letting myself play them, gen four was horrid, gen five wasn't as bad but it wasn't very good, and gen six is probably only better (to me) cause I like when I can play dress up with my characters. I keep letting myself waste 40-50 or how many ever hours beating the newest release but I regret the buy every time. I know when X²/Y² / X2/Y2 / Z comes out, I'll probably play it through.

I know I'm not the only one either.
