Needs to be define as right wing authoritarianism and I think it works that way. Left wing authoritarianism has some democratic examples (Eastern bloc, Mongolia) but many are still in power. Authoritarianism is hard to kick out regardless of spectrum.

I got back into video games a couple of years after about 15 years away and I agree. I play story-driven games, and with GamePass, if I don’t like something I just stop playing it instead of having to justify a purchase by finishing it. It’s been a good decompression tool.
