Today's game is Red Dead Online. Me and my friend played in a private lobby and just hunted some stuff. It's honestly one of my favorite ways to spend my time playing this game. I don't think i have it in me to directly take an Animal's life, so this game kind of lets me get the experience of it without the guilt (though, when i fuck up a shot and the animal suffers i do feel pretty bad too).
It's honestly really cool. I like when games have mechanics like this that i could only describe as immersive. Zomboid is like this too with it's... well... everything. I need more games like this in my life.
After a while of hunting i got a new Jacket unlocked, so me and my friend rode into San Denis to go shopping. I like coming to this city in the winter because of all the snow. I honestly wish the game had a season mechanic. It'd probably take a lot of Horsepower to run but it'd be cool. That's probably more of a Red Dead 3 thing though, if and when it happens.
After clothes shopping we went Bounty Hunting. This is my favorite job to do just because it feels the closest to a campaign. I wish we had gotten more jobs though. I know i, and i know many others, have said this before, but Rockstar really did this game dirty by cutting it's life so short. It really deserved more.
After the bounty hunting, me and my friend went back too hunting animals until he got off, citing flu. I stayed on to get my Trader production up and running again before getting off myself.
As soon as I see your post i upvote. I mean this is some dedication! I dont understand why people would downvote. You may not like the game, but they could just scroll past it?
Anyway...
Also: how do you do it, play every day?? Do you have more than 24 hours a day?
Not exactly, just a lot of free time (and dedicated to my hobby). I'm fortunate enough to not have to worry about bills right now and i'm only really busy 2 days of the week
I enjoy this „about games“ content a lot more than the „behind games(/the scenes)“ stuff or self-promos, and OP usually keeps it digestible and doesn‘t turn it into an essay. Not missing a day has been insane as well obviously (the posts, I mean). Playing every day I find kinda easy with a Deck, at least I can play for 30m before I go to bed, sometimes that‘s just staring at a Baba Is You level before giving up lol. Making a post about it every day on the other hand… I couldn‘t do it.
I'm guessing they don't have kids. Gaming is also my main hobby and I generally manage to play every day too, but not sure I could with kids
I don't have kids but there's not a chance I could play games every single day for more than a couple months even if I made it a goal.
I try to play a game once a day. Days where I can't feel weird. Even if it's just a puzzle game for 15 minutes, I try to play something every day.
I always have a day once in a while where I feel like I don't have time to do even the most basic things I have to do. And I'm not a particularly busy person, it's just something that is bound to happen once every couple months.
I have multiple children, work full time, go to gym and still find time for gaming everyday. It's certainly do-able!
