Games that suprised you (sh.itjust.works)

Let's hear about some games you maybe were told were not worth your time, or had bad reviews but you managed to love regardless.

I'll go first. I'm not embarrased to admit that I played the shit out of Elder Scrolls Blades (the easily forgettable Skyrim-esque mobile game). I had to wait for it to release on Switch which had the benifit of the shitty timers being gone by then.

Once I started to think of it as a kind of advanced 'Swords and Sandles' type game I was hooked.

Genshin Impact.

Listen. I understand that the entire thing was hyped up upon release. It was, after all, a gamechanger for mobile gacha games. We went from turn-based games to things like Honkai Star Rail and Tower of Fantasy and of course, Genshin Impact. Honkai Impact 3rd existed, but it wasn't quite the same as these ones.

However. Despite the hype, there was a problem that made me reluctant to play it.

I really suck at gacha games. Every gacha game before then I would drop within what, 6 days? I love the characters, love the story, hate the game.

So imagine my surprise when I logged into my settings the other day and found out that oh, It's now been over 500 days logged, lmao. I've taken breaks from it once in a while, but I haven't quit it yet. What have I become?
