discussion What kind of games/tags are your least favorites and why?

[LewdritchEntit]

Probably scat and vore. Used to inclue furry but the only things i dislike now are things that disgust me.

yea same here, i used to be picky about the tags of games i play but now the only hard no's for me are scat and vore. As long as i'm not deeply disgusted by it i can usually ignore it if there's other stuff i like in the game

Other than the usuals most are posting here, It's a surprise to me, but I started to dislike non-harem games, it's like if I can't catch them all, or most, I get disinterested

Ntr and multiple penetration- i only like 1 male protag in my games

I get what you mean, after playing a bunch of harem games, single Li games don't hit the spot anymore.

NTR is scat for me

 

[ACBandit]

I can list several,, but good with more tag types than I'm not:
Vore
Gore
NTR
Female Domination
Scat
Furry
bestiality
Necro
anything that puts the MC in a submissive situation

Honestly there's lots of tags here that aren't my cup of tea, but they are also very niche/easy to avoid. But there's one tag that is super ubiquitous that I don't like: "big tits." There's nothing wrong with a nice set of breasts, but games and comics are obsessed with huge unrealistic ones that I can't stand. And like if its just one character with huge mommy milkers amongst an ensemble cast that'd be cool, but nope everyone's got melons bigger than their head.
On an individual basis is big tits less offputting than say scat or gore? Yes, for sure, but there's 10+ big tit games for every one with even a bit of scat/gore so I get mildly annoyed by it much more frequently.

Female Protagonist. Unlike spectating non-interactive media like movies, tv shows and books, when playing a game I like to immerse myself in the role of the MC so that'd just be gay.

NTR and Sandbox. And it seems like its every game now.

 

[Solovon]

Gore is the only thing that's a complete no go for me

Sandbox is one of those tags which is either perfectly done or utterly maddening with the lack of context for all the options. So it is both my least favorite tag for those I search only to come across mindless stuff for or my favorite when its done properly.

NTR and gore for obvious reasons

Which 99.999% of the time is done badly.

The most common failures seem to come from the endless grind some use, the impossible to navigate UI, the weirdly paced story telling, and/or the developer not knowing what they want to do with the game.

Including time is another "bastard dev" move - where things can only be done a certain time a certain day of the week. Any grind whatsoever is a big no from me.

It usually is a form of milking the fans many developers. They seem to think that by adding time to the gameplay they are able to avoid actually doing the more labor intensive work like adding scenes.

futa/trans/trap/gay- I'm not gay. If it's unskippable, it's a insta nope for me.

I played only two sandbox games that were rather satisfactory (with a proper walkthrough mod). The Headmaster and the Photo Hunt. Regarding the second one, still every now and then there are situations when your MC fucks the brain out of an LI and in the next scene she pretends that they aren't even close because the first scene is supposed to be played after the first one.
So, I would say that sandbox mechanics is always a disadvantage in my eyes. Some games are good but rather despite the sandbox, not because of it.

Kinetic Novel - because there is no way in fucking hell something with no choices counts as a "game."
