      Me too. I’ve put more hours into Balatro and Tape To Tape than I care to admit…

      Sure. Unless you have a gaming friend group that gets interested in some new multiplayer game. Then you either buy it so you can play with them, or you don’t play with them. If this continues for multiple games, you will slowly grow distant from your friend group.

        If the only thing keeping them as friends is playing all the latest ass-expensive games with them, they’re not worth having as friends.

        That ought to be fine… it’s like saying your friends aren’t really your friends unless you play [x y or z]… In which case, I’m moving on to play what I enjoy.

        Most groups like this have anchor games everyone goes back to after the 3 hours playing the new game is done. You can still be friends with them.
