With gaming often bringing me into a really depressive headspace sometimes with how the markets are developing, whats a game you can always go to and just be lost in, or just be happy with?
Personally i would go for advance wars 1 and 2 on the gba (there is no remake and never will be)
the artstyle, the music, the game-play is just simple, yet effective, a sublime experience of very fun times.
Whats yours?
Remember the shelf on stores where they put all the weird budget priced shovelware? I remember once buying some kind of weird Rainbow Six knock off that was totally uncooked.
[Edit: The game was SAS: Secure Tomorrow. Lmao what trash.]
Even really great games from back in the day often had bugs, and unlock modern times it was much harder to just push out some patches on Steam or whatever. Perhaps the ease of patching online has made companies factor it in a little more, but games even good games, totally got shipped with bugs back then.
Not to mention all the good companies these days who push out cool updates. I have Wasteland 2, and when that game got a totally overhauled Director’s Cut, the new version got automatically added to my steam account. Say nothing of non-predatory live games like Deep Rock Galactic who just keep throwing updates at players.
