Over the last year I noticed a trend:

I don't play "normal games" a.k.a. "story to finish in x hours" anymore.

Atm the only game I still play is "Apex" - which I started because a friend kept asking me as they had noone to play with.
(It is a fps, but teambased, so I said "yes")
So I play this game, out of habit a few times a week.


But I play nothing else anymore.
I got so many unfinished games (PokemonPearlRemake, Animal Crossing) but I never play those...

It's a strange situation, one I never had before... :unsure:
(And tbf, I kinda think my switch would dust in completly if not for this game)

Bonusfact:
I play this game, even despite all the issues introduced..
I "quit"a month ago, but was curious a few days ago and reinstalled (I'm so weak :( )

So:
Do you have games you "only play out of habit" ?

As an habit... interesting, never realized...

For me that'd be either one of these 5:

Super Mario Land
Alleyway
Looney Tunes
Tetris
Street Fighter

More than an habit, admitting myself a complete fan of, is the MegaMan Battle Network series. Love the action in that game.

But everytime I turn on my Wii and play Wii/WiiWare/GameCube, I always make sure to play a bit of the first 5 I mentioned before, before I turn off my console.

I guess right now it's Ark: Survival Evolved. I spend way more time on that game than other games but I still get bored of it eventually and need a long break before starting up again. But each time I decide to start it up again, I'm having just as much fun as the first time I played it. Definitely got my money's worth.

    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    My point is we already have enough shit with big displays having something pocketable with up to ps2 would be fine on the go

    Ken unless the games are made for that screen size most suck on a screen that size... Having a square screen and being brighter and higher res helps but it's not a cure all, text is tiny bullets are tiny, your.... Well lol
