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?
I have typically avoided older games and played the new and shiny. However, in recent years AAA games have just felt like a chore. I am finding emulated games and indie games to be much more satisfying, especially on my Steam Deck.
I don’t know if it’s just in my head, but most AAA titles feel very samey nowadays. The production value is amazing, but something just makes them uninteresting to me.
I feel the same way. Lack of identity, lack of new ideas. The last games that felt fresh to me was Returnal and Demon’s Souls (I didn’t play the original). I still need to try Elden Ring though
SteamDeck is awesome!! I’m playing steam games and emulated games side by side. Such a great experience. My biggest complaint about the deck is battery life but I can play anything from Super Mario 64 to TOTK. The I can seamlessly switch to Stardew valley with mods. I hope Valve keeps the completion fierce because it’s an amazing idea and piece of tech.
