I don't really play video games any more. No disrespect to people who still play them, but they are baby entertainment. Cheap stimulation which requires very little intellectual input and fucks with your functioning as an adult through screwing up your reward system. Not all games are bad but 90% of gaming just exists to keep you placid and give you the illusion of control and agency. I'm an adult now, I can get the real thing.
I found my enjoyment of gaming was greater learning about various games from a disinterested third party prospective than doing so myself.
