Trying to get my wife to play
I've been big into gaming since I started playing Pong on the Colecovision. I love playing Destiny, but my wife doesn't see why I'm so into video games. I tried hooking up my old Nintendo to let her try Super Mario and Duck Hunt (I mean who doesn't like mario and duck hunt). She liked it, so I offered to show her how to play destiny since its my most recent gaming obsession. Sadly, as I was going over the controls, she stopped me that it was too much to remember for one game. So, I figured we shouldn't start out with any FPS or RPG type games.
Does anyone have any suggestions for an xbox one game with simpler controls that's still engaging and fun?

Edited by SmuttyFox: 7/2/2015 6:13:05 AMDon't explain the controls so in-depth. Give her the controller and tell her "left stick to move, right to look around, a (? I'm on ps4 lol) to jump" and let the game explain the rest

2 RepliesDon't force her into it, nothing good will come out of that. If she is watching you play, ask her if she wants to try and have a go. Tell her the goal and let her figure out the controls herself.

I'd just let her figure it out on her own. It'll become second nature. Lure her in by telling her she can customize her character (that's what my bf did) and I wanted a pretty flowing dress/robe for my warlock. :3

It's muscle memory. Like riding a bike, it comes in time. The way I got my wife to play is that I told her, you don't know what you will enjoy if you can't ride the bike without training wheels...
