My kids recently discovered the old Nintendo Shop on the Wii side of their Wii U. They've been buying lots of shitty old games, and whatever.. but I made them spend the points on Zelda. It's like their first "real" video game where you have to think, and work, and do hard things and if you die you get set back rather than losing your magic lego brick pieces and starting where you died off.
They each lasted less than 5 minutes and quit. I can't be too rude, I've actually never really enjoyed a Zelda game and have never completed one. Same with Mario Brothers.
But I am super fucking jealous of Splatoon2 on the Switch.
Me? Elite Dangerous has consumed my life. I'm no longer remotely compelled to go back to the toxic shitfest of Overwatch (haven't seen Doomfist, havent' done any Season 5 stuff, I just don't care) because the community of players turns me off. A bunch of my friends still play religously every night, but I hang in party chats or just watch the message group light up with disgust and hate... I can't do it to myself anymore.
But fucking Elite Dangerous is fucking magic. It's got the same simple formula as the OG back in the '80s but with so much fucking more on top of it. Finally an "MMO" styled game I can get behind. I'm so fucking into it, I'm rethinking my lifetime stance on PC bullshit gaming and considering selling as much as I can in order to fund a PC and an Oculus Rift for it. I'm prepared to develop bedsores from never getting out of my chair again.
