Yes, at least in my case I write in my blog because I like what I write about, if there are things that I do not know I communicate with some friends I have met on the discord server that has hive gaming, I chat with them for a while and from there I get ideas for my publications or ask for recommendations of games ...
Although most of them I can't play them, I always try to find an alternative of the same game, even if it's the retro version from 1990 hehe, but that's something.
We don't all have PS 5s or PCs with RTX 3090s to play games, man, so it's fun to play old but quality games.
