        3-4 is pretty low. On average I would say that most people who game on a weekly basis are either in the category where they only play 3-4 specific games or like 10+ genres. It's not just that it is low but also that you aren't sticking to specific games. Or are you? When you say genres do you play more than 5 games in each on a regular basis?

        What are they because there are some "Universally Accepted" Genres like Platformers, and Shooters and some that are acceptable to ignore like Racing Games and basically anything that never culturally moved past the arcade in any major way while staying a part of the greater "Gaming" Ecosystem.

          >I don’t like racing games so it’s okay to ignore them
          Lemme guess, you play homosexual RPGs and flavor of the month battle royal games. You aren’t a gamer unless there’s a game in every genre you enjoy. EVERY genre. If you ignore a single one, you’re a pathetic Black person who doesn’t play games. Simple as.

    The only one I don't really like are shmups, though I played like 5 of those anyway to get to know the genre
    Pretty much all genres have some worthwhile games

    People who haven't played at least 100 standalone non-flash non-phone games shouldn't post on Ganker. If this was enforced then the board would improve dramatically.

    I like playing anything minus fight games (I have no idea how to play them other than smash buttons like a moron) and horror games (I'm a pussy).
    But I enjoy watching other people play those games

    Most likely not. I'm willing to try the occasional new thing but I definitely know what I do and don't like and stay in my wheelhouse 90% of the time. Mind you, I'm also old enough to have all of that just about sorted out.

          As in "games like Rogue" vs games with random loot and room layout. Everything you listed is a roguelite

    I love first person shooters. Love them. I can play FPS for the rest of my life and be happy with them. There's not many other genres I enjoy playing, I like platforming, metroidvania, CRPGs, the occasional RTS, but nothing beats the immersion of FPS.
