  I’m sometimes surprised of how few people play indie games. I’m playing Neon White now and having a blast.

  I used to be a League of Legends only guy. I also played Fifa on the side. Basically: competitive online games only.

  The problem is they have a heavily addictive gameplay loop, and it takes seconds to get into a game. Win a game? Dopamine is high and you wanna keep chasing it. Lose a game? Keep playing until you get that high.

  I managed to get away from it, and at the moment I’m focusing on ‘hard’ single player games. Hades, Elden Ring, Megabonk (lol), that kind of thing and I am having an absolute blast. I’m realising that ‘hard’ gaming is my preference, whether online or offline.

  I think it’s completely normal to have a preference when it comes to gaming. Playing a completely different genre is more of a risk, when you know you prefer e.g., rogue likes, why would you stray from them?

  I guess I am the last one. I play one game exclusively for long periods of time. Currently, it is Baldur’s Gate 3. Previous to that was Destiny 2 (9 years). Before that Star Wars the Old Republic for six years.
