I was looking at my steam library earlier and realized i've only actually played 3 AAA in almost 5 years now lol
I don't buy many games, but I especially never buy $70 games. That doesn't mean I don't play them though.
I've bought about a dozen Humble Bundles though, so I have literally hundreds of indie games I've never touched lmao.
i bought the big BLM bundle back in 2020 and have literally only played Celeste lol
Oh shit I got that too. Was I obligated to download everything right away, or does my itch dot io account keep track of what I paid for already?
It keeps track. I still go back and download random stuff just because there's so many. Haven't done it in a bit though.
I pirate just about anything that is over $20. I got like halfway through Horizon Zero Dawn last year before I realized I've essentially played this game several times but now there's robot dinosaurs.
I bought Ultrakill and got a AAA score multiplier if that counts
A videogame named Ultrakill has a more somber and existential plot than most of the dour walking simulators I've seen. It shows us a world without justice, and euthanizes it before our eyes. I can barely wait for the last chapter to release.
Since 2010 I think these can be considered AAA Civ 6 but not all expansions, Planet Zoo, No Man's Sky, XCOM1 and 2.
You can call these "AA" I guess so Paradox games, Cities Skylines, Steel Division 2, Divinity OS2, Pathfinder.
The rest is indie. Steam library size is 120 or so.
I picked up Spider-Man Remastered on Steam a few months ago because everybody was raving about it. I only paid $40 but I still regret it. Maybe I'll have to try it again, I just found it really uninspired
The only AAA games I can remember playing recently was Spec Ops: The Line and Civ 4, which are both extremely old
I'll find myself playing all of the civ games from 3-6, as well as Civ 4 Colonization and Beyond Earth occasionally. Personally I find 5 super frustrating and uninteresting
come to think of it, I don't think that a 10 year old game counts as "extremely old" but whatever
about 10-15 indies to every aaa
i don't really like modern aaa games
last one i actually enjoyed was watch dogs legion and i pirated thatI play a few AAA games a year, but tons of indie games. Tbh I've only played more since getting game pass. If I really like an indie game on there (like Paradise Killer or Tinykin) I end up buying it.
i don't buy games unless they're mmo/online based and i have to. i piratebay everything else.
the exception is if a small studio (~10 or less) and the game is obscure (they aren't rolling in the dough) then i will go ahead and buy it if it's a good game.
don't buy anything usually, i make like 100 dollars a month equivalent lol. last time I paid for game was 'The Quarry' last year, paid 3 dollars to share an offline steam account and complete the game, it was alright.
I cant remember what the last AAA game I bought was. If it’s multiplayer and my friends are playing it, i’ll get it, but really, i’ve not been playing a lot of games at all lately.
I guess I played Breath of the Wild 3 years late and got Metroid Dread a couple months after launch. That's about it since New Vegas came out.
Outside of some occasional exceptions: I pirate most AAA games and buy indie.
I really don't buy AAA at all anymore
Not at launch anyway. I got xcom 2 a couple years ago for like "$10, haven't bought a COD since modern warfare 2
