    I mean, what even is the point of winning a game? Ah yes, now I get to click through half an hour of dialogue and cutscenes, so that I can then not play the game anymore, because I’ve ‘completed’ it. Really, completing a game sounds like a scam invented by Big Game to sell more games. Like, oh yeah, we’ve made our game so fucking boring that players want it to be over with, so they can buy another of our boring ass games and play that to completion instead.

        Well, I was hoping my comment would be ridiculous enough to make it clear that it’s in jest, but apparently not. 🫠

        I mean, I do strongly prefer a gameplay loop you can (want to) play forever over story-driven games, but I am very much aware that this is a personal preference.

      Life is the same. What is the point in “winning life”, just so I can be burried with some medals, and remembered for a few years, before being forgotten, while everything I did is undone.
