I think I have 5k hours in and the development style finally got to me in a bad way. I can go into detail if needed, but I don't feel I need to to anyone with enough time in the game.

I hadn't heard about this. Guess I'll go look into it.
So far this is completely correct.
I'm sure a certain percentage of people can't spell mastodon.
I definitely completed it solo. Finding spell books definitely helps, but just crafting spells with the given elements can be more than enough to muddle through.
You can give yourself armor to assist in your normal squishy wizard self that definitely helps with the tougher bits.
Fish in general. As a kid I absolutely disliked the strong taste and oily texture.
I'm very open with my foods and like to retry everything I disliked in the past, things I still don't like are Olives (weird metallic taste I don't like), Tomatoes (slimy texture at normal size, cherry tomats are fine), unaltered boiled egg yolks (so dry, so so dry), Oatmeal (texture issue), and a couple others I can't think of at the moment. I enjoy most of the texture based ones as soon as the texture is altered.
I bought them ages ago and let me tell you, crazy taxi without the offspring is just not the same. Borrowing the original versions for free from the internet is the only way to go.
May he rest in peace.
Wait. Brain immediately went Gilbert Gottfried with the all caps nice lady. Ah well, may they both rest in peace.
Slathered in secret sauce
I also dabbled in the monster hunter wilds beta. It was what I expected and I'll be happy to play the full version when it's released. I think I bonked every monster available, both large and small. I tried out the weapons I'm likely to use.
Gunlance felt ok, light bow gun was interesting but more complicated than I expected. Bow was mostly the same but with some friendly additions. Switch axe ended up being my favorite of the beta. That thing just hits so quickly and wounds to easily that I don't know if they oops'd the damage on it, or if I was just getting lucky. There were times when I'd break and make wounds in such a way that the monster would be basically stunned for a decently long period of time. If I had been partied up it would have been much too efficient. The other thing about it is the mobility of certain slashes. It took a bit getting used to, but it covers a lot of ground for a heavy blade.
After all that, I discovered the capture net would give both the insects and their essences, so I ran around hunting for endemic life and found a lot of little critters I otherwise would have missed. There's a hornet that was endemic but could also poison you!
And I spent some time fishing. They really changed it up in this one. You need to reel in the line slowly to actually entice the fish to bite. I wasn't completely comfortable with it at the end of the beta, but it also feels like they're going to work on it a bit more.
As for other stuff I played. I continue my usual dedication to a few missions a week in helldivers 2. It's a very fun game made by some very dedicated folks, and I'm down to blast some things every now and then. I finally got my nerve up to continue playing satisfactory. I usually stop right around coal power because it's at that point that you can really automate the world... It's just the amount of math and just waiting on materials to build so you can finally get exponential with your growth. I'm still very much in that stage currently. I need to upscale everything but I'm waiting for materials and to make sure my power situation is handled before I go nuts.
I read this article a couple days ago. It reminded me of this short tale:
You know.. satire that's not incorrect is probably the saddest type.
I know people who chose not to vote because of the political ad about Kamala Harris giving prison inmates access to gender affirmation surgery/care. They didn't look into it any further, they just heard that same ad about 20 times a day for at least a week and it stuck.
