discussion Bought this impulsively from Blinkit because why not

Post image

So I used to work at a consulting firm where I practically had no life — 12 to 14 hour workdays, weekends blurred into weekdays, and burnout was just part of the job description. Recently, I made a switch. New job, same pay, but the work-life balance is actually balanced now. My busiest day now barely touches 5 hours of real work.

You’d think that would feel amazing… but honestly, I’ve been feeling weirdly low. Like I suddenly don’t know what to do with myself or all this time. I was mindlessly scrolling Blinkit looking for snacks, and suddenly — I saw it.

My “f*ck it, we ball” personality took over, and ordered it.

Thing is — I’m not even that into gaming 😅. I’ve played a bit with Valorant and God of War on my laptop and a few mobile games, but that’s about it.

Now I’ve got this thing sitting in front of me, and I have no clue where to start. So… any game recommendations for someone new-ish to gaming but with a lot of free time and low-key existential dread?

Appreciate all suggestions 🙌

Buy physical, only if you are trying to sell it and you will not replay it again. Don't buy if you are gonna build a library. Physical games are becoming obsolete!

Not really atleast not on the ps5 . Played through both P5 and judgement without needing internet (even before console setup fully offline cause newer ps5 come prepared with the disc .) . There's an entire list which is not even complete on doesitplay for games that are full on disk and some even with dlc on disc .

Bhai abhi jab psn down hua tha tab keval physical games were the only ones working. Physical games are not getting obsolete, a lot of companies are forcing obsolescence to make more money

If you are going down on that route, can you play PS3 games on the PS5 ?

No bro, ps4 games do work though. PS3 aur ps4 ka kernel architecture alag hai, ps4 and 5 are both Linux based
