I'm sometimes surprised of how few people play indie games. I'm playing Neon White now and having a blast.

I don't see a difference between the last two

I play literally anything, but with an increased rate of Single Player FPS, Twin-Stick Roguelite, Bullet Heavens,ARPGS and Roguelikes. Currently my main fixation is The King is Watching, I haven't the issue that i only play specific games, but i can't finish any of them -.- It's like i have a fear of coming into a situation where i fail, damn anxiety.

I have played several hundred games, only really like 80 or so of them. La-Mulana, Lobotomy Corporation, Terranigma, Radiant Historia, and DROD RPG are some of those. I think most people wouldn't have heard any of them.

I used to be a League of Legends only guy. I also played Fifa on the side. Basically: competitive online games only.

The problem is they have a heavily addictive gameplay loop, and it takes seconds to get into a game. Win a game? Dopamine is high and you wanna keep chasing it. Lose a game? Keep playing until you get that high.

I managed to get away from it, and at the moment I'm focusing on 'hard' single player games. Hades, Elden Ring, Megabonk (lol), that kind of thing and I am having an absolute blast. I'm realising that 'hard' gaming is my preference, whether online or offline.

I think it's completely normal to have a preference when it comes to gaming. Playing a completely different genre is more of a risk, when you know you prefer e.g., rogue likes, why would you stray from them?
