I don't think I've ever seen a game where loot boxes make the campaign easier. Even if there are, just don't buy the? It's single player, it's not like you're competing with someone. And there are still a ton of long single player games being made. Honestly, I have a bigger issue these days with games having too much extra padding to boost their playtime than with them being too short.I love it. It reminds me of when games were actually hard when I was younger. Games progressively got harder each level to the point where you just raged. Now it's "Buy a loot box, beat this game that you just paid $80 for with an additional $39.99 for that loot box within an hour!"...
It irks me so much, remember when games were epics? Remember pausing your nintendo and sleeping knowing if you turned it off, all progress would be gone and it took you HOURS to get there?
Now a ****ing campaign is 2hrs of game play, then it goes to online, same **** online.
Either you race against people.
You play against someone in a sports game.
You shoot people with a team or vs a cpu
Or you go online to play campaign together.
I find myself playing my SNES Classic and old Nintendo games more and more while my Xbox One & PS4 are expensive netflix machines, also the Jackbox thing on PS4 is a hell of a lot of fun.
There are a lot of online games, but there's also still a ton of single player games out there. There's just a ton of games these days.
I suggest cuphead and Super meat Boy if you want some hard platformers. Doom is a good single player shooter, and I hear the new Wolfenstein is too. Or obviously dark souls and bloodborne for tough single player games. Furi is good and very hard too. It's short, but it's also $20. Nier automata, hellblade, xcom 2, nioh, horizon zero dawn...there are a LOT of good games these days.
This past year or two were some of the best in a long long time for single player gaming imo.
