Would You Rather: Game Edition
I’ve hit the point where I’m finally struggling in Blaugust posts. So I’m taking out another evergreen post, though this one I picked up this Blaugust—Would You Rather: Game Edition.
This originally started over with Mr. Peril, then found its way over to Krikket, and I personally yoinked it from Thyanel. I’m sure it’s been all over at this point, though! (I’m still catching up on all the wonderful posts folks have made, so I’m behind on actually seeing where else it’s been… yet!)
Like Krikket and Thyanel, I’m adding “for a year” to these so they’re less… long-term and possibly anxiety inducing at the thought of one-or-the-other. Regardless of the fact they’re a thought-experiment. Without further ado, let’s begin.
Would You Rather…
Play games only on console OR play games only on PC?
This is an easy one. The vast majority of my games are on PC, so I’d have a much wider selection of games to choose from without having to buy new ones.
Play only single player games OR play only multiplayer games?
Right now I’m playing multiplayer games as if they were single player games. So again, mostly an easy one. Though I’d need to find a different game to play with my bestie. Unless you count Animal Crossing as a multiplayer game?
Play only games you already own OR play only games you would need to still acquire?
Only games I own. I have no ultimate desire for anything coming out that I’d even be able to make the time to play.
Play only games that challenge you mentally OR play only games that challenge you physically?
This one hit a nerve. As someone who suffers both mental and physical health issues, I’d really like to choose neither. Games are a way for me to escape from physical pain, and emotional/mental drain the vast majority of the time.
Play only long/endless games OR play only games that are less than 20 hours long?
I guess the long/endless games? Because that’s mostly what I’m playing right now, anyway.
Play only games released in the last 10 years OR play only games released more than 10 years ago?
Okay, this one was the hard one. I had to google the release dates for the games I’m currently loving. They all fall into the first category—games released in the last ten years.
