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.

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
