Here’s some on my list:
-
Red Dead Redemption 2 - I do not want to deal with the Rockstar Games launcher.
-
Tom Clancy’s Breakpoint - The game’s add-on packs feel like Ubisoft is trying to nickel and dime gamers who would instinctively buy the GOTY equivalent of a title. I do not want to deal with a Ubisoft launcher or account.
-
Zombi - According to the Steam reviews it required a Uplay login to validate the game before you play and that version of the Ubisoft service no longer exists. This seems to have been rectified but I still don’t trust it and don’t want to go through the refund process if it hasn’t.
-
Skyrim VR - I’ve already bought too many copies of Skyrim.
A bit of a “this is why I pirate” thread but more targeted at individual games.
Hell Let Loose, simply no time.
I’m not sure if you meant literally no free time to play video games, or just not willing to make time for a perceived steep learning curve, but if it’s the latter then maybe you could reconsider. The basics can be learnt very quickly via YouTube and it’s possible to have quite a bit of fun casually playing an hour here or there as the Rifleman class simply treating it like a milsim Battlefield without ever diving into the deeper mechanics.
The former; the gunplay, maps, and strategical aspects seem excellent, and it looks beautiful. But I spend about 20 minutes in gaming spread over Quake Live and FPV. SkyDive. These are perfect to just play a quick match or two.
Don’t know about what OP meant but for me it’s no time (or willpower) to deal with communications. Because of this I never really got into the game. I would play (and a lot) if there was a skirmish mode with bots.
