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?
And people will still continue that ‘Conspiracy theorists are nutjobs’ rhetoric.
Yes, don’t get me wrong, believing that there are lizard people or aliens pulling the strings is questionable. But when somebody points at something highly suspicious and says, “hey, look at this, isn’t that weird?” if your first response is, “go get your tinfoil hat” then you’re being closeminded. So much in the Epstein files was called years and years ago, and even today people are reluctant to believe it.
