My hard and fast rule is, "Don't play freemium games." The second I see stars, coins, tickets, tokens, I'm out. I exclusively play what are mostly ports from console. Trials of Mana, The Alliance Alive HD Remastered, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy, Danganronpa, Spiritfarer, Oxenfree, Stardew Valley, Minecraft etc. I also have Apple Arcade from my Verizon package, and I play the Netflix games. Avoid freemium / gacha / IAP-riddled games, and some of the ports are at least decent.
Absolutely agree on the freemium bullshit. Haven't seen a single one that was worth playing.
I'll also add on a handful of suggestions if anyone enjoys puzzle games: The Room series (4 games in the series), and The House of Da Vinci (3 games in the series, heavily inspired by The Room).
Personally don't mind freemium games, I don't care about wait times and shit, just play the game at my own pace.
What I do hate is FOMO, I'm an all-or-nothin' kinda gamer. If i feel pressured to play because I might miss an exclusive item, I'm out.
