I never really got into multiplayer online games, I enjoyed CoD with my friends on the 360 back in the day.

But ever since then I've just been chilling with grand strategy games like CK2 and Vicky or weird sim/roguelikes like Dwarf Fortress or Rimworld.

I hate interacting with gamers online.

The upside of this is that the games I enjoy never enter the "discourse" that gamers have, no one is screeching because they added a black woman texture to a rimworld pawn or w/e

I never got into it at all. Strategy games have been my mainstay for over a decade. All this multiplayer gamer culture confounds me.

Jealous that you did not see it, but pdx games absolutely get the gamer discorse. People were flipping shit when PDX announced CK3 wouldnt have "Deus Vult" in the crusade event. Also the perennial discussion of "why does Victoria/HoI not have a Genocide button"
