I’m currently playing “Cassette Beasts”. Pretty fun game that takes the pokemon formula, and turns it on its head.

I will not play long and involved 300 hour games. It’s too much. I want bite sized games.

The internet said this game is 25 hours long. Except thats bullshit. There are 130 monsters. I’ve caught 16. I’ve been playing for 17 hours. I don’t know if this game has “gym leaders”. But if they do, I haven’t seen them yet.

I have no bad words about the game, other than the fact that it takes 10 minutes (I timed it) to go from not yet opening the game, to get to a title screen. It also crashes pretty regularly. Meaning you gotta wait 10 minutes AGAIN.

But the point is, I’ve barely scratched the surface of this game, and I’m approaching the time period where most people have beaten games.

Am I just bad at games?

    You might be, but at the end of the day, does it matter? The core point of gaming is to have fun, no matter how long you need. As long as you’re not frustrated by the game, I think that’s fine.

    Maybe the game also isn’t for you - there’s so many different genres. Some people are shit at soulslike games, and there is nothing wrong with NOT enjoying a game. They might enjoy something different.

    Now, what I personally have a gripe with is people being shit at games and crying online that it’s “too hard” and they NEED to make it easier instead of, you know, not playing the game they apparently have no fun with. But in your case - take all the time you need, have fun and if you start to not have fun, stop the game.

    With the crashes, idk, but that could be fixable by asking in communities for the game or maybe submitting a bugreport directly to the developer.
