I like to "curate" my collection, watch videos about games from old systems etc, like to read news about games and console war stuff I just don't play any so my Backlog grows unabated.

most games are not meant to be played anymore. we've gone over this.

the only games that are actually played are the ones built for online multiplayer, which Losers despise because they suck at anything competitive.

me and cowshit have delineated the boundaries of the contemporary State of Gaming. AAA first party "titles" are launched with the express purpose of generating hype and denigrating the rival system. Is anyone talking about GOW Ragnarok now? Of course not, because it sucks and no one played it.

Man I was a big God of War fan from the early games and I excitedly got the 2018 one and it wasn't until like 10 hours in that I could admit to myself that it was generic 3rd person triple A slop, utterly bland & generic, uninstalled it

God of War is terrible. Last of Us sucked. The Uncharted games are entertaining though imo. Which is why they had to Stop making them

What single player games are meant to played?

Don’t have time for Elden Ring. Any games like Halo, Uncharted, Zelda, Persona etc?

There is just too much time investment necessary to play most games

Elden Ring has an online PvP component, this is part of the reason FromSoft games have longevity.

This is why GaaS games are so successful, you just drop on for a match or two or 100 and then leave, then do it again. All with a steady progression drip that keeps you invested. I’ve been playing Hunt Showdown again and I totally get it.

The time investment is a big problem that no one talks about. There are a few ways around this. The Resident Evil games are Short. There are a ton of Retro Titles, many which you haven't played. Even retro RPGs are pretty Short. Chrono Trigger and FF9 are both Short af.

You could also try indies at your peril. Most are Western af.
