not all of us are depressed, i just like these threads as it becomes a generational perspective, i like pinball games for example but how many people younger are even exposed to that shit these days let alone like it?

i used to collect retro games but mostly because it was cheap entertainment, at some point it got obscenely expensive, at least i can play what i have.

i play genshin impact and find that fun if super casual since the vast majority of the difficulty comes from end game modes where your lacking the exact character designed to clear content, or at least build to an insane degree to overwhelm.
