Every game is now a job, you gotta log in daily and do your hours or else you get fomo. You can only do one or two battle pass games at a time, you will not find the time for three of them. The rewards you get from them suck too cause everyone else gets them as well. It sucks so much ass.

      You feel locked into it after a while lol. I've gotten every single battle pass in Apex Legends complete so far, but this season sucked ass so I've been struggling to finish it. But I can' just have the missing one, especially since the next one has the Arenas mode that looks fun coming out.

          My girlfriend still really enjoys the game, so she's been finishing mine for me since she's had hers done for a while. But like when I went to play Siege for the first time in years I noticed it had one, and the thought of doing two of these filled me with dread lol.

          I am reaching that point though. It's still my gaming group's go-to shooter but unless Arenas is amazing, its getting to the point where we could swap to a new big shooter when a better one arrives.

              I'm optimistic there'll be some good shit in a few years. Shooters are always really dry for the first few years of a new generation. Maybe Halo Infinite won't suck but I don't have high hopes for it.

      I gave up on Hearthstone as soon as I started M:tG Arena.

      And I don't even bother with Genshin Impact anymore, because I feel like I've missed too much to get back into it.

      Admittedly, a lot of this boils down to me not having the same amount of free time or number of friends who would play. No more big LAN parties, so no incentive to GIT GUD at any particular game or stay current on particular strategies.

        Have you done the Arena equivalent of the battle pass? I don't have Arena but I love me some paper Magic.

          I've only been playing Arena for a few months. You can use coins to buy your way into Limited games and win gems, so I'm curious to see if I can free-play a battle pass. But it's slow, I've staled out at Platinum tier, and I'm only now picking up the cards I need to be reliably competitive.

          I figure as my collection grows, that'll change. I'm a big fan of paper Magic, too, but I rarely have anyone to play with.
