That seems really strange to me. TVs I understand since whatever they’re hooked up to is a bit limited but what is the purpose of a smart monitor? What do they do that would be more convenient than the device they’re hooked up to?

This really used to bother me but over the past few years I’ve stopped caring a lot about the timesink aspect of games and completely gotten over most of the FOMO tendencies modern games tend to have. I pretty much keep my views on what I should be playing to three simple words…Play whats fun.

Some games i’ll play exclusively for a couple of weeks and then I get burned out or am no longer having fun so i’ll just start playing something else I’m in the mood for. I have some old faithful games that I go back to, but generally speaking I just do whatever i’m in the mood for and stopped caring about what will happen to my character/profile/etc when I stop playing. If i’m getting fun out of the time i’m actively spending, thats good enough for me.

I did not expect your pick to be The Beatles: Rock Band.

Is it because of rock band or are you just a really big Beatles fan?

My guess is people probably find it easier to gauge the worth of a game considering most games have a higher price point than those you mentioned. You could look at it the same way for a subscription service like Netflix. If you’re spending $10 a month over the course of a year and have invested $120 into the service but have only watched a couple of movies or barely use it, it may not seem like its worth it. I don’t think this sentiment is really expressed with things outside of gaming.

Stray is a great example for me of a game that was pretty short but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and felt satisfied when I finished it.

Wow that is gorgeous. I just recently got back from a trip to Denver and am itching to go back to the State and do some proper hiking. So many gorgeous views
