Please God, let me meet her. All I want to is to find that perfect girl I know exists. She’s sweet and shy and my age and likes all the things I do, perhaps even is on this site itself. The girl who won’t secretly think I’m a loser, the girl I can cuddle with (even if only possible online) and spent nights talking to and laughing and sharing happiness. Someone who can reciprocate the love I put in, the girl who I can make feel safe and secure unconditionally and can fill this gaping, empty void in my heart.
Please, just let me find this person. I’ll change everything about me if that’s what it takes Please, I just can’t take the loneliness anymore.

Have you ever played To The Moon? The Walking Dead?Those are not games with things to 'win'. The closest you got is...To The Moon: Fulfilling a dying mans dream to experience landing on the moon before dying, while repairing his love life.The Walking Dead: To protect a young girl named Clementine and watch her grow up, see the horrors of survival come out the other side stronger for it, but hopefully still caring and compassionate.A more accurate term would be "Interact".You Interact with the world, you interact with the environment, you interact with the characters.You experience it, you make choices. That's the power that Video Games have that Movies and Books don't, interaction.And this exactly the "Not respected as an art form" thing I was referring to. You're choosing to downplay it as a game, rather than see it as an art form. As a result you are getting offended by the topic being in a Video Game, rather than being able to enjoy it like a movie based on the same topic.For example, let's look at TV Shows. Keyword: Show.Does the Holocaust sound like a fun show to you? No, and the public would be outraged. Don't act like it's some sort of injustice that the industry's name makes it sound trivial.


It's a marketing problem, not some sort of injustice against video games. Dress up your holocaust video game as an "interactive visual experience" or something and you're home free. Problem solved.

Whatever, though, I'm out. Have fun with your echo chamber, guys.

Actually no.Let's look at a topic or theme such as say... The Holocaust.A horrid event where millions of people were systematically rounded up, worked and killed simply for their race, religion, sexuality or mental disorder.We have people alive today who are survivors of such an event, it is a sensitive topic to many people. But we have many books and movies based on it, books and movies are allowed to be made about such topics because they are respected as forms of art. But what would happen if a Video Game tried? People would outrage, they'd attack the field for claiming it's making a 'game' or joke out of a seriously matter. Trivializing it to joysticks, and button presses.But if Video Games were seen and respected as another art form then it wouldn't have such scrutiny, it could tackle those sensitive topics the the same way Movies and Books could.


Part of this is the interactive aspect to it. A movie is something you experience, a game is usually something you win, or for which there are victory conditions and points and so on and so forth. It's not the content, it's the fact that the medium is a video game, something you play.

On top of that, it's called a video game. A game. Does the Holocaust sound like a fun game to you? No, and the public would be outraged. Don't act like it's some sort of injustice that the industry's name makes it sound trivial.

Why is spam no longer being a cesspool of pure evil a bad thing


Spam was never a cesspool of pure evil.

If 4chan is a castle, spam used to be that padded bouncy-ball filled blowup castle your cousin had at his house for his eighth birthday.

Now it's a petting zoo. Or something. This was a poorly conceived analogy.

So you think it is bad because of the graphics?


It's not the graphics. It's the style. Different things.
