Games don't feel like they're made with fun as the goal anymore. The goal is engagement (which is significantly different from fun) to drive monetization in one form or another. It makes the whole process of playing feel tedious and empty.
I completely agree!
I was playing Castlevania: Symphony of the Night earlier, and it struck me just how fun this game is. They made it to be enjoyable, and it works.
That's why I play Indies. Those are still full of passion.
Yep they discovered they can use psychology against us just like the gambling industry does
