Classic text adventures online

I blame being an adult with less free time but also the more modern modes of play such as battle royales. Games like PubG/Fortnite are addicting, fast paced, and have enough complexity to make each run seem unique. But the problem is I played both so much I hardly remember those unique, glorious moments when my team does well. What also contributes to the addiction is the team aspect where I'd have a group asking be to play Fortnite and another to play PubG. It's hard to turn down these interactions as well since the friends on the other side are hard to get ahold of in real life.

There's also an over abundance of games so you have to pick and choose which to spend your time on. I sometimes long for the day where income and game availability limited my range as I was able to concentrate on what I had rather than quickly finishing a game and moving on to the next or being trapped in a battle royale.

Still, there are great gems being pumped out by AAA and indie. All genres, including IF, are being filled because the tools to make games are so easily accessible. I feel we live in a great time considering the trend of games is moving toward multiplatform and affordability. We, or at least I, just need to find the patience to not hurry through and fully enjoy the medium.

It is a SciFi MMO text based game that also has beautiful artwork and was only released recently (almost brand new game).
