Lots of stuff is just... tedious, if not also unforgiving.

That is on top of anhedonia and lack of money (though I pretty much exclusively play free games now, as I regret most purchases anyway).

Surely free to play games are the worst games, they literally have to monetise the gameplay. That's meant to be the part where you have fun.

I said free, fullstop. Meaning gratis. No microtransactions or even ads (if I can help it... kinda hard to find on Android, though I can ignore mobile/just use fdroid), so that's not the issue either. Also I typically don't play multiplayer games.

I often skip over of anything that calls itself a demo or shouts "Check out my new Steam game/crowdf-" etc before I know much else about it.
