Man… How bout something constructive?
Here’s a couple ideas.
A farming simulator souls like
A community service Metroidvania where the world becomes easier to traverse the more people you help
An RPG where you play a pacifist where the classes is negotiator, construction worker, delivery person, fire fighters. Instead of fighting the war, youre building a better world AFTER the wars.
Im looking at the ps store right now and 95% of the games on offer is about beating up or killing people or creatures in some way.
Im a HUGE fan of souls like games and Metroidvanias and I used to be into FPS games.
But Im older now. And Ive come to notice that maybe the violence wasnt why I liked those games but perhaps it was the “kinetics” and meat and potato mechanics that made me like them.
I think Im just tired of all the violence being pushed and marketed to me as a gamer. It’s over represented.
There are a lot of video games where violence is not the central point, or where violence is used as a tool to tell a message about violence not being good, and so on, if you’d like I could recommend a couple of titles that are centred around the story/narrative.
If you’d like a farming simulator, maybe Stardew Valley can be your cup of tea, you do have some violence when you go to the dungeon but it mostly focuses on other aspects.
Oh for sure. There’s indeed is many non violent videogames. I think im just either getting old or starting to notice that maybe violence is over represented and overhyped and whatnot.
