And I'll continue to not buy them and support indie developers instead.
Me too. I’ve put more hours into Balatro and Tape To Tape than I care to admit…
Tape to tape? Oh that's new to me... Thanks friend
If you enjoy hockey and roguelites, it’s the game for you.
Dammit. I really didn't need another addicting game
Update: it's a great game. I'm not even a huge hockey fan, but it sucked me right in.
Lmao rougelite hockey. Eventually there will be a rougelite for everything 😂
I’ll admit that I wasn’t sure about it at first and it was kind of an impulse buy, but I was hooked after my first couple of runs. Great game for the Steam Deck too.
Sure. Unless you have a gaming friend group that gets interested in some new multiplayer game. Then you either buy it so you can play with them, or you don't play with them. If this continues for multiple games, you will slowly grow distant from your friend group.
Idgaf about online multiplayer, only local and singleplayer.
Most groups like this have anchor games everyone goes back to after the 3 hours playing the new game is done. You can still be friends with them.
If the only thing keeping them as friends is playing all the latest ass-expensive games with them, they're not worth having as friends.
That ought to be fine... it's like saying your friends aren't really your friends unless you play [x y or z]... In which case, I'm moving on to play what I enjoy.
