With gaming often bringing me into a really depressive headspace sometimes with how the markets are developing, whats a game you can always go to and just be lost in, or just be happy with?
Personally i would go for advance wars 1 and 2 on the gba (there is no remake and never will be)
the artstyle, the music, the game-play is just simple, yet effective, a sublime experience of very fun times.
Whats yours?
A Short Hike had that effect on me, the re-playability isn’t really there though, but for a one-off burst of peace and quite it will do.
Picking some goofy off-role champ in a /muteall draft game of League can also work, but the experience is highly rng based.
Edit: I forgot Trackmania both the latest polished release with its whimsical environments and the historical custom madness that was/is Trackmania: nation. I genuinely hate grinding (be it mmorpgs or soullike) but once I start a track in those I’m hooked for a couple of hours mesmerized by the smooth effect of my growing skills.
I agree on both a Short Hike and your experience with Trackmania grinding. We seem to have very similar tastes :)
Thanks for the validation totally-not-my-alt-account stranger!
