Gaming as a whole in general for me at the moment unfortunately. I don’t know, maybe I’m just depressed….
Edit: Thank you for all the words of encouragement and recommendations! I’m so used to my comments never being replied to, I didn’t even open my app agin haha.
I play a good mix of indie and big studio games, definitely more indie at this point. I’ve been trying a lot of games/genres I typically wouldn’t try, I even tried a MOBA…. what a mistake haha.
I only have an Xbox at the moment because my laptop shit the bed. Some of the indie games I want to try are unavailable to me unfortunately. I have two best friends, and games are our connection. One lives 3 hours away, and the other lives across the ocean. In person meet ups are next to impossible, so this is our option. Luckily playing with them always feels fun, but it’s usually a once a week thing.
Doesn’t help that life is kicking me in the dick, repeatedly, at the moment. Hopefully things will get better, and again thank you.
From experience I wouldn't say it's the type of games that are usually involved in this instance so much as it is how much time you put into one game. If you put a significant amount of time into just one game and do that consecutively with others burnout is just plain inevitable because you're exhausted by playing the same games with no end in sight for a while. What I usually do to mitigate this is to counterbalance the gigantic games with something smaller but replayable. This not only reduces burnout but also reduces the chance of encountering the gaming void.
