I generally agree with your ranking, the top two tiers seem like an absolute meme though, do you mind explaining what makes them particularly high iq?
Besides stealth games they just seem like games which require accurate execution but nothing which seems specific to high iq individuals. Although I guess that most people who play them are probably high functioning autists.
Board games shouldn't be in the ranking at all, there is nothing which separates them from other genres besides the medium.
>99.9% of the time just route memorization
Every time I go to my local arcade, I sort new on the Stepmaniax machine and try to sight read the new songs on wild first thing if there are any. Rhythm games don't have to be pure memorization until you're chasing full perfects.
mmorpgs being that high is moronic. that crowd gets imprisoned within their rat mazes for eternity and can't escape it because of fomo and sunk cost fallacy. they're literally slaves to their developers.
>JRPGs, MMOs >Average intelligence
Move them down to the lower tiers and I'll begin to take your opinions seriously. Until then you're just a sperg with a high opinion of itself.
It was a good gimmick to use shitty rng to make your 3 hour game last 30 hours, but anyone capable of thought should be over them by now. You don't need to lose to rng 20 times just to buff your passives between runs. Just play a game that's all based
>You don't need to lose to rng 20 times just to buff your passives between runs
way to expose your absolute moronation. Real roguelikes don't have any such crutches. The only thing you carry over is your knowledge of the game.

And somehow I still managed to be wrong since that was actually a screenshot of the Noah's Ark game in Bible Adventures. I'm the worst Christian gamer, truly.
>have never played it and have no opinion of it
you should, its the highest IQ fps out there (which is the reason nobody plays it, because video game players are fricking stupid)
>you should, its the highest IQ fps out there
not even the highest in the genre for mechanical skill rly. even Quake players get btfo'd when they play apex, siege, or CSGO or they end up as mediocre esports players.

oh yes, they have higher demands for mechanical skill despite the retrogression of player movement speed in exchange for higher TTKs, harder to use weapons, larger demand for aiming, no respawns, and situations that will continue stack odds against you as a player. you better be good in 1v3 or 1v5 situations, one frick up is going to cost you the match or round ;). till we the supposed 'quake legends' show up and win million dollar tournaments in these games (they wont), sit the frick down and shut up.

you must be a complete fricking moron to think opposite. TELL me how the frick its lower when the best you have is headshots in Siege or CSGO instakilling you ONLY with certain weapons.
TELL me how Apex doesnt have inherently a higher TTK than most FPS. it's literally the most surface level thing you can take away from actually playing it.

this is you telling on yourself, the reason quake legends dont play these games is because theyre shit, and are inherently worse competitive games by nature, they're still competitive but its like comparing 'good' fast food to a good, homecooked meal- it simply isnt comparable

>the reason quake legends dont play these games is because theyre shit
funny. the usual argument is 'these games are easy' follow by hyperbolic content about how 'they stomped CS noobs so hard and won easy money'. yet we follow these players now, they are getting their shit kicked by fricking kids in OW and Apex lol. > inherently worse competitive games by nature
what ever the frick this means when ALL THESE GAMES ARE COMPETITIVE BY INCLUDING PVP. HENCE COMPETING WITH OTHER HUMANS.
funny thing is. Quake's pro scene is completely exaggerated, if not lied about. Most of you dumb fricks dont even realize Quake 1 had heavy amounts of auto aim and bullet magnetism. which you couldnt shut off without console commands (which you didnt figure out by yourself).
lol @ the food analogy. when Quake is inherently simple to play and understand, with the most of the actions occurring on pure impulse, only getting 'harder' when its obsessively tweaked to 1v1 situations. dueling wasnt even in the base game as a mode lol. and even those restrictions it cant even fricking reach Fortnite's comp scene.
I love stealth but I'm sorry, stealth isn't some fricking genius level thing. You are all pretentious little children bathing in delusions of intelligence. Get a life already.
>Ganker falls for obvious bait, but with new clothes on
Anyone that puts fighting games at the peak of skill and intelligence, and puts FPS low is always bait meant to make fighting game fans look like pretentious morons.
>Stealth and Bullet Hell at the top
I'm one of the biggest shills for stealth games on this board and I know that is full of shit. Bullet Hells are entirely adhd driven as well and require small bits of thought. Basically if you can play guitar hero you can play any bullet hell. Grand strat isn't even on the list either which is likely the only genre worthy of being on the top ranking. I fricking wish I could enjoy those brilliant looking games.
How are mobas easy?
How are rythim games hard? I played ddr and it wasn't difficult at all, nor did it make me think. I just saw arrow and did a step on the board
>how is a nigh-deterministic skinner box multiplayer genre with little to no dynamic strategy once you learn all its variables not for morons?
lol >misspells rhythm
lmao
yeah that's about right, but racing and vehicle simulation can be put in average category, while MMO and MMORPG cretins are worse than legally moronic.
I play games at literally all of these levels, so I guess I work out to average...
but why in the hell is sandbox RPG below JRPGs? Like seriously are you going to sit here and act like Kenshi players are at a lower level than someone who thinks Chrono Trigger and Mario RPG are 'complex'?

>TPS above fps
Tps are way slower and dumbed down compared to FPS.
Bullet hell and rhythm are 99.9% of the time just route memorization. They're peak in terms of raw skill but they don't require intelligence.
Fighting games are the peak of skill + intelligence, board games are the peak of just brain power, shmup and rhythm are the peak of raw skill
>Fighting games are the peak of skill + intelligence
Yes that's why they are so popular with black people
Maybe they're just better than you?
In fighting games? Yeah.
But then again I don't play them.
It's rote, dumdum. Guess that speaks wonders about your actual intelligence.
Though I'd argue racing games belong up there with shmups and rhythm.
Cute image.
