    Lately, it’s been Hades II, Jusant, trying to finish Cocoon, and I’m gonna retry starting Outer Worlds (couldn’t get into it before for some reason).

    But I can’t really give you a comprehensive list since playing indie games usually means playing tons of different stuff all the time. These are just my very current games at this point.

    I do play some AAA games. C2077 was pretty good; I finished the main game but still haven’t gotten into the DLC though. I also still regularly play Overwatch, begrudgingly. I like the gameplay but still hate the monetization and the fact that there is no real competition that scratches the same itch.

    it’s not just that though, AAA gameplay has largely evolved to waste time. pointless side quests, pointless collectibles, pointless giant maps, pointlessly going from one end of the map to the other back and forth just to complete some bullshit quest, pointless grinding…

    well i say pointless, but there is actually a reason to make playing these games such a chore.

    100% XP boost: would you like to pay us for the privilege to play our game half as much this week?

    i haven’t used their search in ages. ddg is good enough and doesn’t flood you with ads instead of actual results. still not as good as Google used to be once upon a time, but I’ll take 80-90% quality over the garbage that is Google search.

    but I’m also considering switching to kagi
