Came across this video critiquing the gameplay of some out of the sheer number of "cozy" games coming out recently.

Wondering what everyone's opinions are on cozy games. Do you feel the same or do you have differing opinions on them?

IMO, a lot of them suck as games because they're not really games in the traditional sense. They are experiences. Or even just art pieces. What annoys me most about them is they are usually touted and tagged as being "experimental" and yet don't do anything new or unique or anything one could legitimately say is experimental.
