Meanwhile I’m buying indie games for way less and they work like a charm. Fuck EA

I refuse to even humor those companies anymore. overpriced garbage. Indi devs all day. I have more fun, I actually finish games and I acquire more because they cost so much less

And the games just feel so much more like a game. Idk how to explain it, maybe some nostalgia involved, but a game like stardew has captivated me way more than anything any massive company has really been putting out. They’re so obsessed with realism and updated tech that the games always feel soulless in the end

It's also the fact that AAA budgets demands a huge return on investment, so you end up with gross monetization schemes designed to keep players paying as long as possible. Imagine if Stardew Valley had a Farming Pass subscription each year.

I've just given up on multiplayer, its just not fun anymore. I've been playing expo 33, blue prince, phantom liberty and lies of P and having a great time. They just don't make fun multiplayer anymore. If they made something like halo 3 or bad company 2 I'd be back in a heart beat. I think the last multiplayer game I actually got into was rainbow 6 siege and but even that drove me away after year 4-5 or something.

Yup, can't wait for the next BattleBit Remastered update.
