Mutliplayer is sort of indefensible too though. millions of Losers wasting their time together. SBMM, which the common Loser/Scum doesn't understand, putting people together with those of equivalent "skill" so they hardly ever have the satisfaction of dominating.

Game stories are horrible in general. But this isn't even really what kids are playing at all. It's a passe millennial fad from when you yourself were 15. Games with stories are targeted at 37 year old Losers imo.

This is the same sort of false dichotomy that gamers do about TV or that stoners do about alcohol. I provide entertainment and Curation for my legions of disciples. "Volume gaming" like 1000k+ hours a year of COD is indefensible. Poasting while you're waiting for your Woman to get ready or while listening to State of Gaming videos in the background is 180. That's the difference.

a lot of the most popular games are basically job-style grinds. gta online players openly talk about their 'grinding' strategies, and how much $GTA they would need to 'retire,' which usually means playing the game in a more relaxed fashion rather than min-maxing and actively strategizing at every moment for in-game cash.

GTA Online is a weird game. If you kill other players in the free roam it’s considered bad. The average IQ is like 92 so completing the heists takes like 4 tries.

it's basically several hundred mini-games scrambled and served together under a common framework. it's one of the weirdest and most bizarre game structures i can think of for new players due to the massive number of overlapping and conflicting elements inside of the game's world.

My niece works at a Chipotle clone. They made her a manager even though she did two years in prison on drug charges. Not flame. Basically, at a fast food job, if you show up on time, don't call out too often, don't show up for work drunk/stoned/high, and speak comprehensible English, you will be a manager within a year. Of course, then you have a lot more work and responsibility for only slightly more money, so it's unclear if it is worth it. But she does get five days of paid vacation per year.
