I tried to branch out...

Played AC I-III back to back to back, started playing Black Flag but it all just seems the same now...

Started playing Skyrim and as much as I tried to like it, I just don't...

Unfortunately I THINK I have played all the famous FPS, Boderlands, Farcry, Wolfenstein, Metro type games...

Any suggestions?

Give Fallout or New Vegas a try kind of shooter mechanics in each of them plus open world/ no scripted path to follow.

Should I play Fallout 3 before New Vegas or does it matter?

Doesn't matter. New Vegas is set in the Fallout universe but its self contained from Fallout 3. If you're interested in the lore, its more closely connected to Fallout 1 & 2.

I don't understand. you played 4 games of 1 series back to back. then you played 1 other game and you don't like anything besides FPS games?


sounds like you got burned out on the 1st one, and there's more than 2 types of games besides fps. plus other types of games in those same genres you played you might like better...

No, No it's not...and I'm a huge Aliens buff.....Aliens: Isolation is good, but it is not an FPS.

Have you ever played Singularity OP? It's a great game.

I find that my biggest draw to AC games is just collecting crap. I finally started AC4 a few months back, and I collected everything on the island, and I've almost got everything in the first town -- including those flipping shanties! :|

are any of those shooters?
as far as i can tell they are first person adventure games. maybe you could try some REAL shooters.
Like Unreal tournament, Reflex, Toxxikk, QuakeLive, Blacklight Retribution, Hawken, Survarium, ARMA, Battlefield Hardline, DirtyBomb, Tribes, Counter Strike, Team Fortress, Valiant Arms, Planetside, Warface, Loadout ..

Shooter is the broader umbrella genre. Most of what you listed are multiplayer FPS games.

Red Orchestra 2 or Arma 2 or 3, and Insurgency for online. :)

it's $3.75 for the price of half of a fast food meal I had fun with it

It's not the price.

My time is simply more valuable than that. If you can't think of anything better to do or play during that time I don't know what else to say.
There are just far, FAR too many other, better games to spend time on.
