People will always separate things and see them as parts rather then a whole. Many will look at the faults and differences of things and use them as a means to divide that which is one. This is evident in history through things such as racism and other forms of personal prejudice. And the world of video games, in both industry and community, is also plagued by such illogical and unjust thinking. The terms, or rather titles and brandings, of both Hardcore Gamer and Casual gamer are the two culprits of this. There is a misguided way of thought that is almost conditioned into everyone means or ways of becoming either one. It is only when such overblown and useless titles are rejected can one see the real truth. That neither the idea of hardcore or casual gamers really exists at all.
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.
Cultured Vultures: Put on your freshest dungarees and chow down on the ripest mushroom as we reel off the best Mario games ever made to celebrate Mar10 Day.
My top 3 are Mario 3, Mario World and Mario 64. Mario Odyssey is also excellent, and I enjoyed Sunshine but didn't care for the Galaxy series.
For those who don't have time for massive open worlds or role-playing games with epic tales, these 15 games are worth checking out.
Yes they do. You can pretend that they don't, but they do. There is a huge difference between someone that plays games on a regular basis and on that hardly plays at all. There is a big difference in someone that plays nothing but temple run and angry birds all day and one that plays games like Red Dead Redemption and Skyrim. To call these type of gamers the same or say they aren't different at all is ridiculous in my opinion.
That is why we get games like RE6 and NG3 because you don't listen to the hardcore that you claim doesn't exist. Many times the casual game are the ones that don't care how the game is made or what horrible things are done to it because they don't have a clue but hardcore gamers are the ones who remember the essence of the games that the developers are so quick to change. But many times they cater to the casual or the people who don't get it,ignore the hardcore and turn the franchise into junk while they pretend that it is fine like this. We hardcore are trying to keep gaming awesome and the casual and indifferent are turn the other way and don't really care if the company turns it into mind numbing, stagnant crap.
There is a difference no doubt about it denying that is just foolish.
There is some overlap. But there are definitive differences. This kind of talk mostly comes from publishing companies. This is how money ends up hurting the industry. The people that have the money are the business execs. They do not have a clue about how to sell to gamers.
actually I think there are gamers and casual gamers
