my 2c, I grew up playing video games. I've had a hard time finding content I actually enjoy. And yes I did play more in 2019-2021 for obvious reasons, but the platforms havent kept me entertained... A lot of games I've tried tend to have a few issues for my use case 1. They're not usually casual friendly - I want to play for about 1 hour a week, and feel like I'm not entirely not progressing or left behind by friends (eg: why couldn't my wow character be locked to another character and I can play along for the ride without the level grind? And I'd even be fine with it if I couldnt play without my friend) 2. Frequently they come with timers that suck eg: games where you build a building and come back in 1 minute to 30 days with exponential scaling of levels. But pay gems to speed it up! 3. They lack familiar mechanisms, but with updated content. I really wish C&C Generals 2 got built. I really liked the first one. I wish they'd make a Grand Turismo that brought back the crappy starter car and race to earn money for upgrades or buy cars. I'd love to play a C&C style MMORTS where its 2 big teams vs 2 big teams and I can harvest Tiberium, pump out troops, send them to the front lines like creeps of ants, and eventually lose to someone who sinks more time... but just feel like I'm part of a team w/o it being a total let down that I'm a casual. Also this same idea for a MOBA, where it's not like "we 100% lose because we have a newb on our team" ... 4. They require an extreme level of skill (ie time commitment) to have a decent experience. I can wander around a battlefield in CoD, but if I encounter a skilled player the battle takes around 3 seconds and I'm dead. I dont mind a 99% death rate, but it'd feel more fun if it took, say 3 minutes of battle so my 10 minutes of wandering to 3 seconds of action ratio was better?
