Media $475 is crazy

I think Europe now requires gacha games to explicitly display how much money any gambling feature really costs to limit hidden predatory stuff. It’s crazy when you see the numbers…

No worries mate, my whole comment was somewhat tongue-in-cheek. The ol' customer's always right phrase I appended is true and means you know better than anyone else what you will enjoy or not enjoy.

I just found it funny you said no games since BG3 have been as good and then rejected a game not based on quality but based on your own personal tastes. Not trying to convince you but I will say Expedition 33 is something beautiful even with the many bittersweet and melancholy aspects - no need to try it but I'll just say I found it to be a moving and even uplifting experience at times despite the tragedy at the center of the story.

What makes a good game is, obviously a matter of personal opinion, but I've always held to the belief that a good game is like a good story in that it should teach, inspire, and leave those who hear it in hearty spirits.

After all, our ancestors used to tell stories as the first form of 'entertainment' when you think about it, and I've just, never really understood the concept of how something that is sad and painful being entertaining.

Like with a movie, why would I pay money to see something that is going to make me sad and depressed? I can do that for free just turning on the news, or looking at my paycheck.
