>That's why Diablo sucks now
>That's why Elder Scrolls sucks now
>That's why Tekken sucks now
All of those series
began to suck long ago. Diablo 3 was a disaster for being always online, Oblivion was ridiculed for walking back many of the advancements that Morrowind provided, and all the additions from Tekken 4 were practically removed in every later game because competitive fags bitched and moaned. The only one that began to suck "recently" was Monster Hunter.
>I remember my friend showed me red dead 2 and was so excited to see me play it. I nearly fell asleep. He pushed me into getting a copy and I couldn't get past the intro out of boredom. I asked him what he liked about the game and he told me he enjoyed the story and music.
Ask him if he's played Gun, or any of the Call of Juarez games.
>I tried to get my friend into...classic Monster Hunter
Why would you do a thing like that when Freedom Wars and God Eater exist?
>he told me they were too frustrating
Because it is. "Classic" Monster Hunter is a bitch. There's a reason why people tell newfags to start with 4G or even 3G. And shmups have always required a special kind of autism if you want to play those. Unironically, I think the most "normalfag friendly" you can get with that is Galaga Arrangement. After that, it's introducing him to "proper" shmups through either the Milestone Shooting Collection on the Wii, or getting him to install old Psikyo games on his phone like Dragon Blaze:

>God I hate normalfags. Just go watch a film at that point.
Anon, sound is an extremely important part of media. Sonic, Halo, and Smash Bros. are undeniable proof of this. And as for stories being a "bad" reason to play a game, explain why people still defend Blood Omen and Deus Ex to this day. If anything, I'd say that it kind of shows how little people have been exposed to the other games that have come out previously. That something like RDR2 "blows" their mind.
