    If you play Persona 3/4, and claim that games are 'cheap' or 'fake hard' then you are bad at JRPG's.
    Persona 3 is actually pretty fake-hard. Of course, I still beat it. Just because I'm perceptive enough to notice when games are poorly designed doesn't mean I'm not good at the genre. P4 isn't as fake-hard because it at least lets you not have to rely entirely on AI patterns in a tight situation. There's nothing in either of those games that require skill at a high level. The base mechanics are actually very simple. It's all about how much time you feel like spending on grinding (including slink grinding) and/or playing around with persona fusion.

    When it comes to games that require actual skill though, I'd say Ninja Gaiden is a pretty strong contender. I suck at that those games but I play them anyway. I'm not too bad at certain fighting games either, but I'm not really anywhere near the top. I guess I am probably best at action RPGs, where I can combine good reflexes and my tactical/strategic sense to create good skill and gear setups.

    I am also pretty good at FPS games, but not team-based FPS games. I'm not a good team player in situations with lots of pressure and adrenaline.
