I should probably go to bed at this point. I typed up a short story of my arduous attempts at defending an outpost in the STALKER modpack GAMMA and how my game crashed when I turned in the quest. Sent off that post and woe-is-me, the entire text didn't get submitted and I didn't have it saved in copy-paste. It's just so ironically fitting.

So ya, what's something you'd like to ramble a bit about?

There's a couple of studios that keep things interesting (ie, Nintendo with TOTK and FromSoft with ER), but other than that, what even is there anymore? I swear, the old AAAs just put pure crap out now. While Sony has been killing it lately, Im a little worried seeing what percentage of their funding is now going to be going to new live service stuff.

Are full games for full price too much to ask for from half these companies now?

100% agree! TOTK is amazing but it's a diamond in a sea of garbage it feels like. As I get older I feel like I have less and less time to play games I don't really like. So many are grindy and samey. Indie space blows my mind. Stardew Valley is basically one guy... Like how?!?!! You have millions in AAA and you are getting absolutely trounced by the indie crowd.
