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?
I tried Stardew Valley one time, and it killed me. I would probably call myself a completionist and all the stuff I have to remember from the get go and dates and times I need to be somewhere to don’t miss out just made me stressed out. But I haven’t looked into it if you really miss out or you can do the stuff later, too. It was I while ago… perhaps I will give it another try.
I don’t think you can actually permanently fail anything. If you want to just farm and ignore socializing with people that’s totally fine, you can always raise your friendship with them later, once the farm is more established. Having sprinklers installed really cuts down on tedium.
Adventuring in the mines is another way to go, you can ignore farming for a while if you like, or just do it on rainy days.
Or you can just spend all your time socializing until you are maxed out and don’t need to anymore (stardew wiki required if you want to keep your sanity figuring out how to max socialize).
It’s all valid.
Don’t get me wrong, it can get stressful at times, but I’m on my fourth playthrough and this time, I suddenly stopped caring so much about the story, I just like doing the tasks. Fishing is trance-like, I love that mini game so much.
I see. I will probably try it again some day.
Stardew Valley is as stressful as you wanna make it lol
