I think there used to be a kind of mystery about things though, you could debate in a pub for hours on a subject where now there's a definitive answer available within seconds. That delay in accessing information was fun and led to all sorts of debates and wonder. I remember when the original Pokémon games came out on Gameboy and there were all sorts of rumours flying around about how to get certain Pokémon, missingno etc. you never knew what was real or not until you saw it with your own eyes. Now you go on Google/YouTube and someone's already done an hour long deep dive to prove/debunk everything. I think having all of this information at our fingertips has actually stunted our curiosity and drive to explore and experiment

I'm also a massive slay the spire fan, I'd say Balatro is easier to pick up and the runs are shorter, so it really has an addictive loop of "just one more try", however I think you're much more in the hands of RNG and I personally wouldn't put it on the same level as STS, but it is a great game and definitely worth checking out!

I competed it literally yesterday. It took me 28 hours in total and I'd say I had a similar experience to you that I really enjoyed the concept but I wanted it to be finished quite a few hours before I actually completed it. Also, if you made it to the glacier area then you weren't far from the end.

I'd recommend Deep Rock Galactic to anyone, it's a really great game and a lot of fun, especially with friends. For me I'd love to try Barotrauma, the concept really appeals to me but in the classic patient gamer style it's never quite become cheap enough for me to outright purchase.

Thanks for being so generous with this! I've been meaning to try out Returnal for a while now so that would be awesome to get. Something that made me very happy this year was my dog. We got him just over a year ago as a puppy and I'll be honest it was pretty tough at the beginning, puppies are a lot of work and he's a stubborn little boy, but this year he's just got progressively better and better and it makes all the work we put in at the beginning so worth it.

Hope you all have a great Christmas and New Year!

Not directly relevant to your post I thought your post was culturally interesting. I live in the UK, and a pub pint will ALWAYS be what you listed as imperial pints. I believe it is illegal to call it a pint and it not be that size. I'm surprised how small the American pub pints are in comparison.
