Yeah, been wanting to try baldurs gate but I know I'm going to feel like its too much of a commitment and time sink. I mostly stick to indie games, short and often better than AAA for my taste at least.

I don't know of any short games I barely play single player. For me the only games I enjoy are sandbox games and competitive multiplayer. I cannot deal with how boring it is to play against ai enemies but at the same time it takes so much regular playing and even some studying to maintain being good at a multiplayer game and when you switch the learning curve is brutal.
