Nowadays I find a lot of games feel like too much work and/or anxiety when I just want to relax for like, 30 minutes to an hour after a long day. On the other hand, the games specifically designed to help you unwind just feel boring imo....
Why are there so many suggestions of Zelda BotW over TotK imo this thread? I’ve only played the latter but my understanding is it’s pretty much the same game with more to do. And since Nintendo games rarely go on sale you are probably looking at a very similar price tag.
This comment made me remember that the tech school in my (US) hometown of ~4000 people had a machine like this roughly 20 years ago and I’ve never seen another one since.
So TTI manufactures Milwaukee, Ryobi, and Ridgid power tools. I didn’t know they did Ridgid too. I wonder how many manufacturers there really are for the plethora of power tool brands. I’m gonna guess like three.
But we still have living expenses in the US too, on top of the outrageous tuition costs. My bachelor’s degree cost $58,000 but during those 4 years I also worked two jobs just to pay for rent and food and keep my car working. I’ve been out of college for over 10 years btw and still owe $40k in student loans.
I can’t imagine that there is any overlap between Linux users and Spotify users, considering what a shitty piece of software Spotify is. I think you must be the only one.
do you find it difficult to get into games? I’ve got Epic Games and Steam Games libraries chock-full of classic top-tier games along with many other newer games like Stray or 2077, and a bunch of indie titles. I just can’t be bothered to download and install them, much less try to get into the characters and storylines. Used...
I’m playing Tears of the Kingdom now and it’s the only game that’s kept my attention since Dark Souls 3. I am not generally a fan of open world games. Even as a huge souls fan I didn’t really care for Elden Ring. But this Zelda game is incredible. There is so much more going on than I expected and it is just plain fun.
I think the biggest issue here is that metroidvania as a genre is just far too tedious and not all that fun to play, unless you grew up playing Metroid or Castlevania. Hollow Knight has so many great things going for it, but after several hours of predictable power gaining and backtracking through the same areas to open new pathways just to do the same thing again I couldn’t take it anymore.
being able to go back to each area to explore it to 100% with the whole power set feels really great.
Nothing about this sounds fun to me. Perhaps when I was 8 years old, but not now.
I have both Ori games and spent even less time with them. They are prettier than Hollow Knight but even more dull unfortunately.
Yep, and it’s really obvious if you’ve driven into the state from the east. You find yourself wondering when you’re gonna get to Colorado and realize you’ve been driving in it for 3 hours, it just looks exactly the same as the last 10 hours.
What game do you play to just chill?
