It’s not Steam games, it’s AAA games.
Save cost on optimization. Increase the demand for storage. Manufacture the need for data centers. Profit. Why make a product ready for you when they can sell you a problem and a solution along with it?
Indie games on Steam tend to be a few GBs at most.

I prefer YouTube Premium Plus Silver tier. It still has ads, but they are premium ads, which I find go down my throat more smoothly. Anything less makes me gag.

I’m glad to hear you appreciated it.
Also worth mentioning, while it’s poking fun, the reason the commenter does that is for a good reason (it’s in their bio).

- Comment on Why is the first thing the internet says whenever a relationship post comes up is: "Red Flag"/"Break Up"/"Divorce"/"Don't Walk, Run"/"Go No-Contact"/"Let them die in a nursing home"/etc... 2 months ago:
Feels like I’m going against the grain of the other comments, but let me try to justify it. A lot of people are in bad relationships and are being treated poorly without realizing it. Letting someone know that something is a red flag might be the first step in them becoming aware that their partner is abusive. There’s no “mending” a narcissist.
That being said, a post will only ever give you a sliver of the whole story, which is why Internet relationship advice isn’t really reliable.

- Comment on What's the best time during hockey season to visit Canada? 3 months ago:
Early April might be snowy in some places, but any other time in that range you’ll be fine for travel. I would pick late August or September. You won’t see trees turning colours, but late summer is more tolerable and comfortable (in Ontario).
- Comment on What was the first game you ever bought ? 3 months ago:
Majora’s Mask. I preordered it and saved up allowance for months. It came to like $100 CAD with tax. Played the shit out of it and finished it in 2 weeks. The game was good, but I was quite disappointed because LttP and Ocarina both took me at least a month each. MM only has like 4 dungeons. Ended up trading it to a friend for Smash Bros.
- Comment on What is on your next-to-buy list? 3 months ago:
Lunacid is wonderful. Don’t forget to grab the free game Lunacid: Tears of the Moon as well!
I don’t have anything specific that I’m waiting to buy, except for Into the Unwell when it gets early access release.

Demon Tides. The sequel to Demon Turf. It’s an open world 3D platformer with a pretty deep move set. Definitely has some Wind waker influence too.
Also been dabbling in Hades. It’s good and fun, but I’m not quite as blown away as I expected to be based on all the hype.
GeoGuessr. I’m both better and worse than I expected to be at this.
- Comment on Demon Tides Review: Open-World Platforming Excellence Held Back By Weak Bosses 4 months ago:
I played Demon Turf recently and enjoyed it a lot. Never got around to trying the Demon Tides demo, but still intend to buy the full game. I find it interesting that the reviewer says the game was “held back”, yet still gave it a rating of 8.
- Comment on How do you search for "amateurish" song covers? 5 months ago:
I come across these bedroom covers all the time when I’m looking for “(song name) acapella”, even though a lot of the times they’re not actually acapella versions. But sometimes they are. Love finding these and seeing another unknown person’s passion for music.

Chugging along through the Halo: Master Chief Collection.
I missed out on the series back in the day and now I’m playing through all of them. They’re great. The collection is insane value, especially since I got it on sale for like $10. 40-50 hours in and I have 1 and a half campaigns left still. Multiplayer is active and works well.
- Comment on Does the first-born child in a family "mature" faster than the later-born children? 5 months ago:
There’s a thing called Birth Order theory and it may or may not be bullshit and subject to cognitive bias, but I will say that anecdotally it seems mostly accurate when I think of my group of friends growing up and their siblings. There are definitely some exceptions though, like my friend who is the younger brother, but is more responsible than his big bro, though we suspect the older brother suffers from some sort of undiagnosed mental illness and is unwilling to get checked out. Short answer in my opinion is yes, the older sibling tends to mature faster. I do think that the older sibling has some power over the younger ones by virtue of being older and more mentally developed while growing up. Whether they use that to nurture and protect, or abuse the younger sibling is more a matter of personality than birth order though.
For your second question about feeling immature, I think it can happen to anyone at any time. Being put in a tough situation and feeling helpless about it can make a grown person feel like a child, despite being an otherwise mature adult. For me it happened less the more I became independent. But it still happens. For example, if car issues pop up I can get the feeling of “oh shit, I need an adult”. I think personality is a big factor here too. As an only child my perception is that I feel less willing to ask for help than others, at least until I try to find a solution myself. Some friends who were younger siblings seemed to always be getting catered to, getting rides to places, etc. That might also be influenced by other factors like family’s finances.
