A disclaimer: This article is in no way an attempt to attack game companies, the specific games I mention, or those who enjoy them. It is simply a self-reflection where I try to analyse how I feel about the video games that have been available recently.
I've been in a gaming slump, I’d say for the last year or so. When I sit down after a long day to play a game, I think about my list of what I have and just feel unmotivated. When my partner and I decide to have a gaming afternoon, we enthusiastically plan the time and day but once we get in front of the TV, we just stare at our collection with boredom.
Now that I've played a few games that I've really enjoyed, I’m finding that there just isn't any appeal for much else. Why is this? I’ll firstly discuss what games I have played recently and enjoyed, and secondly, discuss what games I’ve had trouble with and attempt to analyse why Thirdly, I will consider games that are coming out soon, and why I find them unappealing. I will mostly be covering AAA games, because these are the ones I have grown up on and mostly play. I’m not very much into indie games, but I will be making more of an effort to play them in the future.
