I honestly don't see how the average working class adult find that time. I feel like gaming is a luxury for rich/middle-class teens.

Since there are barely any new movies I feel truly interested in (and shows, even less so), I guess I do have the time. I just don't have the interest anymore and my tastes, through experience, have developed. I'm a big turn based RPG guy, although I'm also partial to ARPGs a la Elden Ringu, and there are barely any 'decent' games for me to dive into. I'm the kind of guy that plays one game every 4+ months, but if it's not even semi interesting I will delete the game shortly after I pirate it (I'm not paying for disappointment, I only pay after playing and enjoying it enough to feel it's earned). For instance, two years ago I played Outward and modded DOS2, last year I mostly played ER and I replayed Wasteland 3, this year I've played Wartales (and about 20 hours of Clair Obscure, which is still demo time for me, lol) and Tainted Grail (it's okay, better than CO, IMO, so I paid for it), and I'm considering a replay of Xcom 2 (Long War of the Chosen, ofc).

  1. TG is better than CO? Hmmm I might give it a look then.
  2. Don't go back to XCOM, friendo. That's a toxic bitch with RNG that'll scar your heart and salt the earth around you. Do not. Go back. To XCOM. ๐Ÿ˜ฑ
