I feel like new AAA title games are all about being “more” than the last game, instead of being fun. Everything is having a Call of Duty/Avengers syndrome, the bad guys have to be bigger, the music louder, the textures larger. Even games that don’t succumb to the annual release cycle still have to compete with the hype those games create. In the end, you end up with games like Fallout 4, instead of New Vegas.
Not at all. Stop trying to play AAA bait and just look for fun instead. I’m having a blast with Dead Cells, I think the demo for Balatro (poker roguelike) is still available, if you prefer 3d survival, Valheim is a great pick, etc.
Why would you tip someone who just rang you up? Tipping is for exceptional service rendered, not for pushing a button on a screen and handing you something. This whole over-tipping bullshit was started by the credit card point of sale machine businesses, because they reap greater profits. If everyone makes tips, then no one makes tips. The only winner is Square Cash.
Well if you don’t even want to install them… Its okay to just run a few quick matches and log off. You’ve gamed for a long time? Take it easy, its a marathon not a sprint.
I’ve seen comments making comparisons to old and new gaming industry. They don’t do story as well any more. What I find is they don’t do marketing the way that appeals to me anymore either. If I want to be excited about a game, I have to read about it slowly and find wallpapers and concept art. I have to lead myself to the water before I can drink. I hype myself up about it!
One really extreme example of this is Runescape special accounts where youtubers like never leave one area, or do hardcore ironman, or play on one square at a time or whatever. I can take one tenth of that energy and make my gaming more interesting.
Maybe you aren’t eating the right foods? I am older so smaller calorie allocation now and honestly if I don’t enjoy something I don’t eat it. No room for crappy food.
Make or buy something healthy and so delicious you can enjoy it.
And music is a good accompaniment to food, that is engaging but won’t make you mindlessly overeat.
There is nowhere you can get unbiased news. You have to analyze the bias and think critically about it if you want to really understand what’s happening.
