Make a Great Game Sound Boring

[Gecko clown]

Skyrim was good. Then it took an arrow in the knee.

I used to make witty jokes, then my sense of humour took an arrow to the knee.

OT: Portal, walk around similar looking rooms shooting at walls, then shoot at walls really fast to kill a computer.

In Fallout 3 you walk through some green-gray rubble for miles until you find some stuff and pop into a program to click on what you want to shoot, then talk to some stiff-looking NPC's.
Greatest game ever.

Press buttons, something happens

Press buttons, something happens

Every game ever, it seems.

 

[Mark Chipperfield]

Half Life: You break boxes with a crowbar.
LA Noire: It's about picking up items.
Portal: It's about holes. Bow chicka wa wow.
GTA IV: You're a criminal who likes going over ramps.
Dead Rising 2: Some zombies in a mall.
Minecraft: There is no objective.

ArmA-series/Flashpoint(original):

Spend half an hour walking, get shot by someone you can't see, start over...

Repeat forever

 

[someonehairy-ish]

In minecraft all you do is sloooowly build stuff that looks shitty anyway, and then it gets blown up and you have to start again :/ forever!

Street fighter: Down, down-forward, forward, punch. Repeat until victory or your opponent punches you in real life.

Hahahahaha. You win.

 

[TheMadDoctorsCat]

You click on groups of nine blue things to move them to attack groups of red things until the red things are dead. (Warcraft 2.)

You wait around in very dark corridors while counting your ammunition. (System Shock / System Shock 2.)

 

[TheMadDoctorsCat]

Doom: It's an FPS where you can't jump or crouch or aim up or down. No sniper rifles, no grenades. No story development, characters or voice acting.

And all these are supposed to be BAD things?

 

[Broady Brio]

Beat up people.

That is every single fighting game summed up in three words.

 

[redisforever]

Half-Life: Hit ugly things with a crowbar. Also, science.

Garrys Mod: Do stuff. What stuff? Just stuff.

Mario: Go right. Sometimes, you go left, or up, but mostly right.

 

[maninahat]

A failing, office sales team member struggles to close any decent deals. He resorts to stealing one of his more competant team member's clients, and bungles that deal too. It results in his dismissal, along with an incompetant car mechanic. They visit a dam, a lighthouse, and a pretentious jazz club full of smug beatniks. The villain owns the sales company and has an interest in growing flowers. His greatest crime involves not giving clients the package holiday they deserve.

What game?

 

[maninahat]

A junior employee in a major organisation fails to turn up on time, ruins someone's lunch, and causes an accident by pushing a shopping trolley (his sole job requirement). His subsequent behaviour was neither appropriate nor conducive towards an safer and happier work place. Also abused company equipment and attire for personal gain.

 

[silasbufu]

Skyrim : Kill dragons, clear dungeons, kill other stuff.

Ok kill dragons doesn't sound boring at all, but it gets pretty repetitive and they're easy as hell to beat

 

[TheScientificIssole]

Batman:AC- You cosplay as a bat and speak with a deep voice

Holy shit, that sounds artsy as fuck! It also sounds kind of amazing.

 

[Medimorpho]

inFamous: kill bad guys
The Legend of Zelda: find stuff and walk around until you find more stuff

 

[Vhite]

Dungeon Defenders: tower defense.

Pretty sure that's Grim Fandango.

Doom: Run around hunting demons and keys.
Dark Souls: Death, death, death, a bit of progress, death.
