As fun as video games are and all.
I'm getting a bit tired of all the combat focused ones being set in some kind of dystopia or post apocalypse/disaster or war.
I guess if the game has combat it's hard to have anything else unless it's just 1v1 fighting.
I started playing automation games and once I did, I started disliking most others.
Now I'm totally addicted to them and are the first thing I look for when buying a new game.
And just to put things in perspective, I've been playing games since my dad bought our first home computer: The Apple II.
An automation game about post apocalyptic combat would be really depressing
Spyro is great as a counterpoint, ish. There was a disaster, but you basically go around fixing it.
Ratchet and Clank. Ocarina of Time pre time travel. 🤔
I hear you. With all the wonderful digital worlds we could create, why is nearly every game about heart-pounding action, killing and conflict? That’s why l have really been digging Red Dead 2 and just exploring, hunting and fishing. Occasionally I’ll do a mission or go after a bad guy on a bounty, but generally just exploring the huge open world to wind down and forget about life’s frantic pace. It’s really fun with a friend on voice comms. Or just cruising and flying around in GTA5 on a private server with a custom music playlist playing. Another great freedom game is Steep. Endless open world mountain sports. When I feel like a challenge, Ready or Not is fun. A great SWAT tactics door kicker with amazing reply value.
