Game bloat is the worst thing to ever happen to video games.

Game bloat is what happens when a video games, good or bad gets too big. Now that we can download updates game companies have abused that to play the same old game and not making something new. It can be a bad game expanded into three worse games like Final Fantasy 7 or great games like I get into here.

Terraria was the first game I played with game bloat. I had a blast playing it alone and with other people, but the game just got too big. Now I start a new game and feel lost. I don’t know what to do or how to accomplish it. Maybe when the cross play patch comes out things will get better. Or the cross play thing has been a lie to string us along like a woman on a dating app.

Minecraft is another great example. Name one person who has gotten into the game recently and wants to play it long term. You can’t because they don’t exist. They keep adding more and things to do and I just do not care. I likes it back when I knew how deep I could go and how high I could go. Now everything is just too big and to be honest, I have always sucked at it. Also, #notchdidnothingwrong

Vampire Survivors is the worst offender I have played. It was a fun, challenging and addicting game at first. The first couple expansions were also great but now I turn it on and within seconds I am giving everyone around me an epilepsy attack and have no clue as to what I am doing. They should have made other games instead of the expansions. The Castlevania expansions are what broke me. I know they are making games now based on other properties, but I won’t care until they make a Plants VS Zombies one.

Sometimes games can ruin themselves with expansions. Factorio was an extremely hard game for someone not ready for it. I took me months to master the base game and had a sense of accomplishment with launching my first rocket. I think the game changed the way I think and I am better off because of it.

The space expansion ruined the game for me. It added to much and I couldn’t wrap my head around it. I didn’t play the main game the way most people do so maybe I put myself at a disadvantage.

I got into Satisfactory because of Factorio and it’s my favorite game. I am really hoping the expansion grabs me in the same way. I would love to lose myself in that game like I did the first time I played it.

I would write about Wowever and how it reignited my love of World of Warcraft after years of pointless and bloated expansions but then I will want to play Wowever and
