You just sound like a 15 year-old struggling with self-awareness for the first time.
I would report you for being underage, but at least you're trying.

strategy and puzzle games? Some RPG's maybe?

shooters and "soulslikes" are pretty much all about raw reflexes and speed.

Engineering games, like Factorio, or Besiege.
I wish we had a new, higher budget attempt at Colobot, now is the time with coding so popular. Some ministry of education should put a few hundred thousand bucks and half a dozen indie devs to work on it for a year. Would be very useful in getting kids into programming basics. Got me to become a programmer.

I don't know if this reasoning makes a lot of sense, but I read that for an ordinary person to become really good at chess, he has to start practicing as a child, and it will take years (or decades) to become a master.
Sports also require this type of commitment. A professional sportsman needs years and years of hard training to achieve good results.
Yesterday I was watching a video of Zero Master playing Doom Eternal and he just completely destroys the game (90% of the time he is in maximum health), even though the game was released a few days ago. In the comments he says the game is too easy.
I think games are hobbies for the retarded.

Massively, MASSIVELY overdone at this point

This is the harsh truth however fags who got filtered will continue to downplay this to the end of time to avoid facing their inadequacies

Alpha centauri

Not really surprising considering it's a mass appeal mainstream single player game

Most competitive multiplayer genres will take at least 5 or so years to be seriously competitive at and it takes most people a lot longer if they ever get there at all.

HA HA! NUMBER GO BIG!

You clearly don't know much about video games

>A professional sportsman needs years and years of hard training to achieve good results.
Only because he's competing against other professionals.
ie. is playing in multiplayer

Part of that is because chess has an enormous skill ceiling whereas the vast majority of games do not.

Black to play.

I guess Minesweeper counts, but at some point of proficiency, the way to shorten timings is to instinctively work through all the common patterns instead of thinking.

I make accounting and warehouse software, not video games. Game developers have worse jobs, for less money, and more work. Bless them, the martyrs.

Reminder that if your game isn't played in real time/without some sort of time limit, it's not mentally challenging.
There's a reason chess has a clock. If you can take forever for your decisions, they're hardly decisions at all.

Quake.
It's also fun to play unlike chess

Why would anyone still play chess when even a nail-sized computer can easily be better at it than any human who ever existed?
Human chess are pretty much chess for handicapped. The computer stuff is the real deal.

One of my friends is a chess genius and he has never played online or practiced it since childhood. Call it bullshit because it's Yas Forums or whatever, but it's true. One of his family members was a chess champion however, and he lost when he played her when he was like 12. She didn't go easy on him, and said he could easily pass as a pro. It also happens that he's extremely good at ASSFAGGOTS, but he turned down an e-sport offer because he thought it was autistic as fuck.

>why do people still lift weights when even a simple machine can beat any human strongman who ever existed?
>Human weightlifting is pretty much weightlifting for the handicapped. The machine stuff is the real deal.

It's not unheard of for little kids to have unnatural talents at chess, the youngest Grandmaster ever became a GM at 12 years old.

>D7 to E4
Rooks don't work that way.

you were that fucking kid in math class who said "Why learn math? That's what computers and calculators are for?" weren't you?

Bxe4?

Then I play Qxe4 and I won your bishop for a pawn.

This is from a famous grandmaster game where white blundered on the last move and is now losing by force, and black resigned. But you should never resign (especially when you're now winning), you just have to find the move that the grandmaster didn't see.

Bloodborne is the best of them because its the only game that acknowledges that the Old Ones aren't monsters.

Certainly not chess anymore

Are you good at chess?

Muh dong

Artifact. Filtered 99% of those that tried it. No meme.

competitive puzzle games

As much as I like games like that I feel like you have to be some genuine version of autistic to try and learn the ins and outs of everything. It's a videogame. You aren't actually being productive and your learning the entire system for nothing.

Same with those big technology minecraft mods.
