Seriously email your IT and/or privacy team at the university level. I work at a university and that would be removed ASAP for sharing PII. If you're in the US or UK it's a major violation of your privacy. Unfortunately most IT offices aren't involved in many of the decisions and many of the people making those decisions are complete ignorant to the situation.
This is the best answer, players are invested after a certain point, but the realization that they don't like the game comes later in the process. The more you play the game you don't like the more you're frustrated with it and the more likely you are to give it a poor rating, especially when the things that are your biggest complaints feel like obvious bug fixes that should have already happened, but continue to exist.

Hey u/username,
We will soon begin rolling out changes to Reddit's User settings. It is getting a refresh that includes changes to ad personalization, privacy preferences, and location settings.
As part of these changes, we are retiring a setting that you have previously turned on that limited how we used your activity from the Reddit platform to personalize ads. We have replaced the setting with a new option to select categories of ads that you may not wish to see.
More details are available in our announcement and help center.
These changes are rolling out starting today and you may see the changes over the next few days.
Disco Elysium is the game that instantly came to mind. Basically all story that is brilliantly written with incredible voice acting. I hope OP checks it out.

That doesn't mean that we shouldn't regulate predatory practices. Many video games are built on social media and gambling models designed with intentionally addictive features. In not talking about fun features, I'm talking about addictive features. There are panels at game designer conferences you can listen to about this stuff.
Card Hunter is an excellent trpg/ deck builder that has card based actions. Excellent single player with multilayer options that I haven't explored much because I generally need to be able to pause for extended periods, but it seems solid enough (no idea if there is an active community though).
You can pay to skip ahead, but I had a great time never paying for anything. Probably put 100 hrs plus in.
This is sadly a much more likely scenario
It's by far the best mobile browser that let's you run tampermonkey and uBlock on Android and it's not close. I haven't found an add-on that let's me run video/audio in the background, so until then Brave stays installed so that running YouTube with no ads and the phone locked is an option.
Aside from that, Firefox gives fantastic customization options, runs well, and is less vulnerable to attacks specifically because it has a smaller market share and it makes more sense to target Chromium based browsers.
On Android just use Brave browser and turn on the setting to allow tabs to play media in the background. Opera does the same thing.
Not sure what iOS options there are.
A true miracle
TIL, that's a great tip! cheers
I replaced the YouTube app on my SO's phone with a Brave Browser YouTube link (Brave includes both features out of the box) because having to sit through ads when they wanted to show me a video was driving me nuts...
I use Firefox because of tamper monkey, buy Brave is my go to easy solution for friends so I don't have to explain about installing extras.
By taking this down, NexusMods communicated that they care about non-conforming people far more than if they had just said it. They are creating an environment where bigotry is removed rather than accepted. Nobody is saying you can't be a bigot in private with your game, we are saying if you're going to be a bigot we don't want you to do it here with us because we care about the people you are excluding/hurting.
