I Love & HATE Video Games

A video essay on why I both love and hate video games. There are select games like RDR2 and BOTW that are genuinely great works of art, but the problem is that they are few and far between. Just scroll through Steam and you’ll see what I mean. Lifeless open world maps covered in icons for uninspired fetch quests are EVERYWHERE. And add on top of that the woke propaganda in every game. Forspoken and most modern Ubisoft games are prime examples. The industry is pumping out uninspired woke crap left and right, and even formerly great companies have slowly devolved into identical money-grabbing, leftist-infiltrated, soulless corporations. <br> <br>Support my channel here: https://www.subscribestar.com/disillusioned-player <br>Follow me on Gab or Twitter: https://linktr.ee/disillusionedplayer

Video is very well made. I'd like to chime in on text-based vs. visual game. The disinterest stems from Dopamine level. The higher the dopamine level, the less a person is inclined doing something less fun(like learning etc.).

The Dopamine poisoning that we are all subjected to via MSM, has an adverse effect on learning ability.
ADHD does not exist, but is due to children being victimized by their parents giving the children toys and movies that make a lot of noise and flashing lights. Learning a skill then becomes too boring. Since there is less areas where children can build, play and be safe, parents opt for the flashing lights.

For females the Dopamine hit is in regards to associations with males and will cause her to feel a relationship is too boring - unless she creates the drama, which will prolong the relationsship/association for her, until she decides to leave to get the next Dopamine hit.

Agree with your gaming sentiment, that the better games will come from indies or the very rare double A company.
But the distributionchains are getting more centralized=controlled. It may end up with a patreon situation soon.

I didn't make the video, I just mirrored it, but I do agree with a lot of his thoughts and opinions, I'm not into the text-based games, I've been too spoiled with better games shall I say. But I guess that's supposedly has to do with my point of view on what is better and why it's better to me, because what's better to me isn't necessarily better for the next guy, I understand perspective all matters.

First game I played was Jupiter Lander. It was a text based game on a Commodore computer. The game was on a magnetic tape cassette. Although I never played video games much because I spent most time outside.

I get that, funny you mentioned text-based games, now I'm not personally into those games myself, maybe it's my generation I'm a bit younger than you I think. But I've tried to get into text-based games, I think the reason why I can't get into them is because I'm spoiled with the games we have now, although I will say that text-based games are making a comeback, I believe that's kind of going backwards, but some people like them, the dude in this video loves them if they have a good story, and that's probably the only way I would get into a text base game, it has to have a damn good story, but in my eyes it's not really a game, it's more of like a interactive story book, they're the kind of game that would be perfect for teaching children how to read, and I'll be honest with you, if I grew up playing a text-based game, I would probably love it too. But as I said before, I was spoiled with better games, which meant going outside wasn't what I did as much. Although I do remember being poor, and when I didn't have video games, I would make anything a toy, I was really into science fiction stuff, like Star Trek and I remember finding rocks on the ground that were shaped kind of funny, and pretending they were spaceships LOL, I had a great imagination, but I was always jealous of kids who had the video games, so when I got my own video game system, I never wanted to go back to playing with random objects pretending their toys.

But yeah, text base games are coming back big time, if you look up text-based games on the Google Play store, you'll find a fuck ton of them for free. Of course they have their ads if you're playing while you're online. Unless you're using an app to block the Wi-Fi from them like data saver plus which I use. That way I can still remain online but the game cannot access online capability which means it can't produce ads. I'm just a jackass that way. But there are a fuck ton of these games for those who are interested.

All I can think about is making jokes out of these games. Or memes I mean.
