Gaming these days, at least multiplayer or those "games as a service" games, just seems so shitty. With all of the "gacha" aspects of lootboxes, or battle passes where you have to pay to play the game, or just plain predatory psychology manipulation to get you to buy random stuff... Games nowadays feel like you're basically working a second job, or you can pay money so that you don't have to work the second job because it's not fun.
