I love that at any point in a Kora video, there is an excuse for Disney Dreamlight Valley to get randomly insulted LOL

[@tcg2717]

My absolutely unhinged take on this phenomenon is that people are using these kinds of game as an escape because the world is seriously kinda screwed right now. Houses are unaffordable, prices of everything are blowing sky high, wages are stagnating, etc etc. What better game to escape in than one that lets you fulfill your fantasy of *gasp* owning a home and doing stuff with it?

[@parkermae]

this is why I have 1000+ hours in House Flipper 1 & 2

[@buckwheat3846]

Cozy and indie just go well together

[@itsjacobj]

Not to turn into a sociologist out of nowhere, but I feel like people are drawn to cozy games because a lot of us feel like the world around us is kinda burning down (prime example: 2020 and ACNH). And I think a lot of devs are building off that by providing players with a little whimsy, coziness, and calms in an otherwise hectic and decidedly un-cozy world. So, the more violent (physically or psychologically) the world beyond us is, the more cozy games can (and will) proliferate
That, or we just like cute animals and twee homesteading idk

The best part of the surge of cozy games is: i got to know your channel, i almost don't play videogames anymore (sad) but your editing and voice are the coziest part of them

I’m actually in the process of developing my own cozy game! Right now it’s pretty similar to Stardew Valley, but I want to go a little more outside the box in terms of mechanics. If anyone has ideas for features to add to my game, please let me know! I don’t want it to just end up as a carbon copy of all the other cozy games out there. 😅

Have an alien invasion that comes to steal your crops and you have to shoot them down. Then, somehow meet the alien world up in space and make alien friends. Make it a political allegory by showcasing aliens being pro-humans meaning in their eyes, they want to stop using humans just for food. Meanwhile other aliens who are pro-alien just want to use humans for thier crops because its super cheap to do so but still unethical

[@CaptainAstronaut]

I love cozy games.
They are so cozy.

[@EdinMike]

I already had a switch, but the pandemic and seeing all my friends playing ACNH made me buy it too, cause what else was I going to do ! I loved it though lm sure there were days I spent 10 hours listening to podcasts and just fishing…

[@rain-cloud_]

can you put a list of the games that were in the video?

[@edline5226]

cozy games are def a favourite of mine

[@beccalou7459]

I will not continue to take this harvest moon slander

[@MissAdalia1991]

The sims is not cozy game, it's simulation genre. If you've played any of the previous installments you would never call it cozy

[@cupcakeelf]

Cozy games can be so satisfying. Just like Kora’s videos

[@Cookie_Comment]

dude, netflix and mobile games just can’t register in my brain :’)

[@Samurix16]

Not my favorite genre of game but definitely do enjoy playing a cozy game every now and again.

[@Pricelessmile]

I know no one knows about it but I just desperately what another Viva Pinata game 😭

[@parkermae]

The Game Grumps played it with Michelle Visage in 2019, it's an hour long video if you're interested

[@MageJiro]

Plenty of people I know are aware of Viva Pinata and we also want a new game

[@Toastcat890]

I think people are tired of the usual dark and edgy games because we've become so oversaturated with them it's nice to have a break from that and be reminded of the games of your childhood in some cases

[@ophylias2107]

My kingdom for netflix games to be playable on PC

[@Toastcat890]

I imagine they'll eventually come to PC and console but there's so many games coming out they'll probably be forgotten by then

[@MageJiro]

I like Animal Crossing, sims, stardew valley, Rune Factory, harvest moon. Yet, I haven't really been interested in any of these indie cozy games.

[@nielskattenliefhebber7440]

What is the game at 0:32?

[@stillagoldfish327]

It’s Fields of Mistria! It’s not out yet but there’s going to be early access in August :)
