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 to be I couldn’t wait to see what happened in the story, what new items you could collect, what new worlds the developers had created. Not anymore. I return to playing the same franchise for a quick FPS match or three and then I’m done.

    Yep. Why is this? I stopped buying games because I end up sticking to the same ones and types that give me the most joy, where I feel like I’m achieving something and not wasting my time.

    If i open a game now that’s too difficult to learn, has too many key options, is too bright for or hard on the eyes, is gory, doesn’t have bag space and wants to nickel and dime me for it, etc…I just stop. Red Dead Redemption - beautiful game and I crave to go back. It is too difficult and causes me so much stress. Not worth it. There was this other game I wanted to play. The controls and interface was just awful. Look around the world caused motion sickness and hurt the eyes. WoW - toxic community.

    When you get older, I think you learn what works for you. What feels comfortable. What feels good. What makes you happy. Because that’s what you’re there for, to be happy.
