What Do You Just Fucking Suck At? (hexbear.net)

Keep it light plz. For example, I am terrible terrible bowler. Just absolutely piss poor even compared to equally casual people, any time there's been some kinda get together involving bowling I have come in last by a huge huge margin. I need the bumpers. I can bowl a perfect game in wii sports tho.

FPS games as well, not really a fan and have never ever been able to hack it at them. After graphics got good enough I didn't find the perspective disorienting team sticks became the norm and I'm left handed so that was a weird thing to adjust to for me and by then it was 360 era CoD time and I wanted nothing to do with it and would just die 4 seconds into each spawn anyway.

I am extremely bad at games that require precise combos and punish button mashing. Fighting games and those Platinum Games type stylistic hack and slash especially.

Ooh, same.

The more tense it gets the more I need to do the inputs right and the less able to do them right I get.

I'm also bad at bullet hell, so despite nier automata's story and aesthetic both seeming very appealing to me, I completely bounced off it.

It's kinda strange for me where there are some games where very precise input at high speeds is absolutely my jam, I like to casually speed run Mario games (nothing impressive, just personal besting) and fucking crush at F Zero X, but if it's a fighting game or a devil may cry kinda thing I'm cooked. Bullet hells are kinda hit or miss for me, I don't mind em but they've kinda supplanted all 2d rail shooters.

In KSP I can manually land within meters of a target from orbit or dock to an out of control craft without using RCS, so it's not just about precise inputs. I just cannot combo or parry to save my life.

I've never once parried anything in a game
