Yep, kids changed it for me too. Picked up RDR2 on sale and just can’t get into it. I have like an hour to play a game at a time, and I don’t want to spend 20 minutes riding a horse to a destination.
I always check howlongtobeat.com before investing in a game. 10-20 hours is perfect. 80+ sounds terrible to me.
ChatGPT should be plenty good for any foundational questions you have. And asking “how could I improve this code” with a code snippet can give you insight into better ways to do things. If you ask it for broad responses like “write me an app for relaxation sounds”, I can guarantee that it won’t work, but using it alongside a tutorial when you have questions or get an error can save so much time.
