Comfort games? (beehaw.org)

With gaming often bringing me into a really depressive headspace sometimes with how the markets are developing, whats a game you can always go to and just be lost in, or just be happy with?

Personally i would go for advance wars 1 and 2 on the gba (there is no remake and never will be)

the artstyle, the music, the game-play is just simple, yet effective, a sublime experience of very fun times.

Whats yours?

Yeah, Oblivion is really something special. I've probably spent more time total on Skyrim, but Oblivion just feels more alive to me. Love the soundtrack and the dreaminess of the world. I also love the voice acting flubs they just left in the game, haha.

Oh I also spend more time in Skyrim, but that's only because the 64bit engine allows for way more modding capabilities (no more 4GB RAM limit!) and because I can play it in the train on the Switch where as for Oblivion I'm stuck to my PC or PS3. But in my eyes, Oblivion is still the best game made to this day.

Both are over a thousand hours playtime by now tho. Sadly I had Oblivion originally on PS3 and on PC on a disc without code (so couldn't add to Stean) and Skyrim on PS3, Switch, and on PC devided over oldrim, SE, and VR. So it's nearly impossible to get acurate playtimes by now.
