Not quite perfect

[Mango Choo-choo]

Very sensible post, and I agree

Achievements has become a plague in the gaming industry. Therefore I try to largely ignore it. Not easy the way the are pushed everywhere, but it's more important to have fun and explore the game you play, and get immersed in the game world or universe. One of the reasons I love story based games like Witcher 3 or Red Dead Redemption 2. Explore and have fun, that's it.

I don't have 80 games, but I do actually have 1 platinum. But it was kinda easy in that game.

Spot on!
There are so many industrialized games like Assassin's Creed Series.
You can see the side quests are literally generated by programme or AI bot.
They are tedious and repetitive all the time.
I already have a job in daytime.
I don't need to do another job after work.
Stop playing these mediocre games.

Witcher 3 and RDR2 are great games although R-Star launcher on Steam literally sucks. This made me crazy from time to time.
I love the world of Witcher3.
I absolutely immersed in the magical world of Witcher 3.
Even riding a horse in the big world is worth everything.

Cherish all handmade side quests.
I have seen too many side quests which are actually similar such as delivering an item to somebody or killing an enemy or finding out where is the dog which the villager lost. I don't understand as a super hero, what I do every day is not defeating my top nemesis or saving the world but to deliver packages like a paper boy.

Oops, we're getting off track.
Let me stop complaining then

There is merit in small tasks. Too many people in this world have a hero complex.these days, and it is mostly video games fault. Getting very off track indeed, if there ever was a track you were on. Mind you, the world is meant for wandering, not tracks. That's why streams meander and change over the course of time. They have their own track to follow, and it has nothing to do with the impermanence of man.

It's the Airbender game isn't it?

No, not played that. It was a "free" game about space combat. The usuals, super expensive skins, hot broads and guys, grind like hell. First Descendant I think it was called.

I just realized that's what I'm doing in the games I'm playing regularly now.

I'm just vibin', doing my thing.

Minecraft, Stardew, Ark SA and SE, Slime Rancher 1 & 2, even Rocket League in its way. Do some stuff, build some stuff, tend the animals, change outfits. I'm no savior of the world, I'd rather be distracted by squirrels. Or skunks, saw a mama and l'il bebe on my walk yesterday!

Omg skunks are adorable. I would love to have one as a pet!
