What a brain rot take. They are children, my guy. I know you think you’re the smartest 12 year old in you class, but not everyone is as clever as you .
Or maybe this is just you telling everyone that you know don’t know how propaganda works.
A lot of the development for Proton has also been community-based. Aside from whatever Steam has done to directly improve Proton, just creating the Steam Deck, and SteamOS has brought so much more attention and focus to improving it to an extent that probably wouldn’t have happened otherwise. It gave people a reason to volunteer their time to improve it.
Like a Dragon (Yakuza 7) is the only Yakuza game, to date, that’s a JRPG. At least in the way most people think of JRPG (turn based combat).
They’re all great games, just wanted to point out that only the one, so far, is a turn-based JRPG.
I think it would probably make for a great first JRPG experience. Persona 5 is pretty accessible, but it’s very anime and tropey. That said, I’m not a fan of anime and absolutely loved the game. Either would be a great starting point.
If you’re enjoying yourself while you play, then the time was well spent. Like you said, try to remember that nobody is making you play every game you start to 100% completion, that’s an entirely self-imposed rule.
That said, for me personally, the length of a game is generally irrelevant to whether or not I will enjoy that game. If I enjoy a game, I enjoy that game. If it’s long, it’s long. If not, cool.
