Yeah, the online games.

Honestly though, if my kids were into rocket league of play it. Not to be competitive or anything, I find it fun and relaxing.

That's how they get you. All these big solo brands you think are independent are mainly owned by an even bigger company. Tencent supposedly gives GGG and Riot pretty great freedom in design choice tho, pretty hands off from what I heard anyway. Not sure how they treat the other games tho.
