Seriously I don’t get it. They’re max consoomer drivel taking you away from productive hobbies like making music, carpentry, canning fruit & veg or painting. Humans are meant to create things instead of consume them on the daily. This imbalance is the main reason for societal decline, people would rather consume than create. I’ve never met a well-adjusted adult gamer. They’re all capeshit losers with equally loser children who scold other kids for not playing their lore game the right way. Fuck them all, video games are the biggest loser hobby.

I love retro games, or at least older ones. New games feek like busy work sinulator. Do daily quest here, fetch item there, good job now do this 100x for an 1% upgrade. Indie games can also be quite fun.

I dont care for the stories either. If I want a story ill go read a book.

;) yes i couldn't even do quests in skyrim, if it was easy, nearby, ok. but most of the time i would just wander around killing whatever, then sell the loot. oh and then i would buy cheap weapons, and put amazing enchantments on them and sell for profit too. I am pretty sure its not supposed to be a trading game, but i was enjoying raking in the gold.
