Absolutely. My disappointment is owning a NES and buying a game based on me playing it at the arcade.

This is why more games should openly embrace modding.

A “we’re legally not allowed to do this gameplay mechanic” writeup and let the community unofficially provide it.

I’m one of those people. I played New World recently. It’s a great game to turn off your brain, chop wood, and occasionally be a hero a bit so you can chop more wood.

Also, MMOs and always being online just isn’t my thing anymore. Group raiding, climbing the power ladder, killing the big bad?

No thanks I just want to chop wood and decorate my house.

Thanks. Lots of clickbait energy here

As it should be.

I don’t mind a monopoly on a physical product as long as I can jailbreak it, install my own custom hardware, or modify it however I want.

Elden Ring gives you an unlimited inventory, and every item has layers of lore.
