With gaming often bringing me into a really depressive headspace sometimes with how the markets are developing, whats a game you can always go to and just be lost in, or just be happy with?

Personally i would go for advance wars 1 and 2 on the gba (there is no remake and never will be)

the artstyle, the music, the game-play is just simple, yet effective, a sublime experience of very fun times.

Whats yours?

    You are very much correct, however, ID argue due to stuff like you mentioned, they are more predatory than ever before and thus, in a way, can.be considered worse no?

      Perhaps, but the solution is still the same as it’s always been: don’t play crappy games. I’ve been having a blast playing MechWarrior 5 and it doesn’t have any microtransactions or other such rubbish.
