I guess I'll start using mastodon rather than my NSFW twitter to scream about dumb twitter in interactions but I said 'other genres are just as confusing as fighting games, you just can't hide behind a team to learn' and now someone is arguing with me that MOBAs are more visibly clear and understandable and I want to die
@kayin source: my and my friends have played exclusively MOBA since original DOTA released so it makes sense to us
@FenoTheFox Or people even saying "FPSs are easy!" YEAH WE'VE ALL BEEN PLAYING THEM FOREVER
@kayin I'm trying to think about what the easiest game to understand in terms of just raw intuition are. I guess I'd say 2d platformers? They're pretty good about making the basic "rules" easy to understand I think. You can go left, go right, jump, and maybe duck if the game's a little WILD. This is assuming that we leave out games that are basically glorified Simon Says games of course. There's also some sadistic platformers.... Kayin. But still.
Spoiler alert: Call of Duty is hard as nails if you’ve never touched Call of Duty and also can give motion sickness (Source: I’ve played Call of Duty once on Xbox 360 during a random gaming night)
