In between my spikes of melancholy, isolation and loneliness I'm currently playing Tekken 8. The game can be extremely frustrating and unfair but I don't have anything else to play and I'm running out of money so I won't buy anything else this year. WWE 2k24 has been a disappointment this year, cyberpunk was a disappointment, stardew valley has been a disappointment. Warframe, another disappointment, that game feels that has no real direction or sense of progress.
Seems like modern games aren't good anymore (I guess stardew valley isn't new but whatever).
The only decent modern decent game I played this year is Re4remake...
I was planning of buying the new Spider-Man game, but after seeing the promotional material, it turned me off.
actually you should be running a VPN before you do anything--wait until you can buy one. don't use "free" VPNs. but once you get to that place, google qbittorrent tutorial or something similar. there are a number of steps to setup your trackers/settings
