do you find it difficult to get into games? I’ve got Epic Games and Steam Games libraries chock-full of classic top-tier games along with many other newer games like Stray or 2077, and a bunch of indie titles. I just can’t be bothered to download and install them, much less try to get into the characters and storylines. Used to be I couldn’t wait to see what happened in the story, what new items you could collect, what new worlds the developers had created. Not anymore. I return to playing the same franchise for a quick FPS match or three and then I’m done.
Great games feel fewer and farther between after this long. Yes, you get a Witcher 3, or Baldur’s Gate, or Zelda sometimes. But really, and it sounds fucked up to frame it this way, they’re merely excellent. And I’ve played a lot of excellent games, so unless one is on a tier never before experienced by anyone on Earth, eventually things feel less special for some reason. It’s fair to say that some games are innovative, but they are very few. The best we usually get is stuff we’ve seen before, just insanely well polished/tweaked on ocassion. Ultimately, there’s not a lot new if that makes sense. It’s sort of a been there done that vibe, and it’s probably just a sign you’ve played too much good shit. Like an addict that has hit the same pipe too many times lol.
