    personally AAA games don’t appeal to me most of the time. Spare for a few titles that are on my wishlist like Baldur’s Gate 3 and Elden Ring (for the reasons explained below) I don’t plan on buying any in the foreseeable future.

    Most AAA games are plagued by the money curse - devs don’t get the freedom to do what they want to do, they are made to create what will make money. Innovation is a risk and will be shut down by the money men unless your name is big enough to sell copies on its own. Sure not all triple A will turn out to be bad or meh, but they are pricey and often so, so, bloated. I was on the fence with Starfield, DIYed myself a demo and that thing was like 95GB with nothing to show for it.
