Reader Discussion: Which Game Genre Are You Burned Out On?
In the age of infinite triple-A shooters, zombie titles, and quirky indie games, it's easy to feel burned out on a particular genre. Which, if any, game genres are you sick of seeing?
After the deluge of shooters at E3, I feel even more burned out on the genre(s) than I normally do. I grew up on N64 FPS games, so I have nothing inherently against shooters. However, when I feel like the majority of games presented to me are violent, brown and/or grey games that took way too much money to create, I feel a little hopeless.
What about you? Which game genre are you particularly burned out on? Sick of fighters? JRPGs? Pixelated indie games? Why?
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
