Gaming as a hobby can be whatever you want it to be. It can be relaxing and cozy, where you just kind of go into autopilot mode and keep planting turnips in Stardew Valley without a care in the world. It can also tap into your deepest power fantasies like The Witcher 3 and Skyrim, where dying might happen once or twice, but you can recover pretty fast and learn the ropes of combat quickly.
