I know there are probably a lot of posts out there saying the same thing I am, about how gaming isn't what it used to be, since publishers are now more focused on making money than keeping a solid player base andaking a solid game.
I have been playing games my whole life from casually to competitively, even going as far as commentating games for leagues and tournaments, so it really breaks my heart when I turn on my PC, and realize I have no drive to play anything.
I end up booting up a random game, but then get no enjoyment out of it. Even when I know I won't be having that much fun, I still do it; maybe because I have nothing better to do, or maybe I hope that this time I'll really enjoy playing.
I don't know it's just a little rant. I'm posting this just so I get other people's thoughts on my situation and that of gaming as a whole. I really want to enjoy gaming as much as I used too, but it's hard at the moment. Do you guys suggest I try a take a break, discover a new genre of gaming, even a new hobby, or something else entirely?
Thanks for listening have and have a good day!
Don’t kid yourself, publishers were always focused on making money.
What changed is that in the past, “good game = more money”.
Then it became “micro transactions = more money”. Then “battlepass = more money”
