Modern games are jam packed with content to the point of FOMO. There's so much baggage for just sitting down and having fun for an hour.

Look at Elden Ring - who cares about "weapon arts" and sneaking? Upgrades and infusions.... what? In Demon's Souls remake you get a shield and a sword, and you have to be creative and make your own fun. And I like that, making your own adventure - being a player instead of a spectator.

It's a game after all.
