#sooo many ppl state things as fact that are just personal taste like UGH

Look call me a wimpy baby, but like not every video game character has to SUFFER for them to have a good personal story. They can have different conflict, or learn to be different without their whole family being dead, or their dad hating them, or like abuse up the wazoo. Games can exist where people have average problems too lol

Also, "choices that matter" in games is honestly a fine balance for me. If a game is too stressful to play b/c I'm busy worrying that every slight choice my character makes will make all my new video game friends hate me and leave (and I don't mean bad choices, I mean like the good answer vs neutral answer) then it's not fun for me.

I don't want every game to be as hard as it is to live real life, isn't it okay to just have a fun game where I can swing a sword or do magic, get a full night's rest, get paid fairly for a job, make a group of friends who you can laugh with "in person" and maybe a little dash of drama to spice things up (maybe a little romance)?

I feel like so many ppl are starting to talk about games in the way they do like DEEP SAD movies they kinda don't understand. Like somehow b/c it's HEAVIER and MORE REAL that makes it a better game when it's all down to personal taste.

anywho, some of us just play games b/c we want to take a little break from life, and that's okay too ^_^
