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?

    Diablo games. It’s nice being able to slay demons and not put much thought into it.

    GTA, online friends mode, cruise on my motorcycle checking out scenery, ride the coasters.

      Which diablo game would you recommend for someone trying to get into it? Sounds up my alley from how you describe it

        While not Diablo, Path of Exile, Grim Dawn, and Last Epoch are some others that are basically Diablo in everything but name.

        I’ve played a ton of Path of Exile; it’s free to play and has major feature updates every few months. I haven’t played Last Epoch but I’ve heard good things.

        You can try Diablo 3 for free and see if that style of gameplay is fun to you.

        Diablo 4 is certainly a better game (so far) in my opinion though. Micro txn bullshit aside it’s a good balance between mindless demon slaying and some story.
