no joke this feels like the perfect time in my life to catch up on my backlog, or to find games that SHOULD be in my backlog and play those. generative ai is not inevitable. I can opt out of it by literally just playing anything made before 2020

splatoon is actually what led to this post lmao, I picked up the splat roller for the first time on stream and did AWFUL and I definitely need to put in more practice with it than I needed for other weapons

unfortunately that's one game that I'm not very interested in, I don't really care for superheroes and I got enough overwatch back in overwatch

it is forbidden. because of the month

the difference is probably that I'm usually playing those games on stream and not on my own time, so I'm not really getting the same sort of experience and practice that I did when I, for example, was putting in a few games of halo reach every day before going to my college classes
