    My favourite journalistic practice is when outlets lump up everyone playing video games into a single group called “gamers.”

    There’s plenty of games that require deep and extensive thought. I just wanna jump on turtles and fix this spaceship before I get tossed out of the airlock.

    Someone who isn’t into strategy games will play shallow strategy games like fire emblem because its anime and allows you to date anime girls with big boobs.

    I just want a game where I don’t have to think too hard. Obviously not some brain dead game, but nothing that’s too close to actual work.

    Well there aren’t that many strategy games, let alone rts, that are that engaging for single players in the long run. I’m equally not interested in playing generic skirmishes over and over again as I enjoy playing strategy games competitively online.

    Yep makes sense. I mean it’s clear people hate deep systems when something like Baldur’s Gate 3 becomes the undisputed Game of the Year /s
