Games

Preface

Online games are on top of list of things you don’t have any control over. Offline games are a slightly better but there is still enshittification. There are many games but much less good games. If you focus too much on one entertainment then you will run out of new and good things quickly, and focus too much on downsides of that entertainment. A game is released with bugs and they will never be fixed because it’s proprietary. You have control over a book if you downloaded it from ARR sites and view on a reader, but if you do it too much then you gain information but don’t exercise enough. Walking and running can be painful on emotional level if you have bad luck and live in a shithole without forests or wild areas, or you lose parts of an area for bugman housing or actually a rich person, or national forests, but you can walk almost anywhere and you should do it, it’s very beneficial. You should do it more than reading and other stuff.
Remember, if you spend a few hundred hours in games, no one cares and you gained nothing in real life. You can’t talk about it to normal people or share it online the same way you can with real life hobby. Mediocre things in real life are interesting and can be social, but in games only other gamers will care and you don’t meet anyone. Nothing you create in online games or even proprietary offline sandbox games is truly your property. Even when there is some value in what you did, a few hundred hours of your life can be removed by a random ban or server shutdown. You can become a completely different person in a few years if you spend 1-2 hours daily on improving and doing good things. Or you can play games, watch TV, scroll social media and be nobody.

With that in mind, there are some games that are good if you play as expected and don’t do it too much. RECOMMENDED:
