>>730649368>we will never see another tactics advance game because the producer fell off the deep endalso, caligula effect, akiba's beathttps://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/final-fantasy-tactics-writer-says-its-political-message-is-still-relevant-because-the-world-hasnt-improved-in-30-years/
girl in persona 1 was literally dying thou and she was saved by the end.
>>730649368Moon Remix RPG AdventureOne of my favorites
Real life is gay, escapism is awesome and claiming otherwise is due to a skill issue.
>>730649973One day when you're older, you'll realize your entire lifetime was spent escapingDying without regrets is important
>>730650540And I enjoyed every second, why would I have regrets about that?
>>730650579You're a dumb nigger
>>730649368>escapism is badShow me a recent game that peddles that. None do because iRL is fundamentally broken for younger people and escapism is all that is left.
>>730651473exposition thirty three
Are there any pro-escapism games?
>>730650540No that's work you're thinking of. Dealing with patients at end of life is a very regular part of my line of work. Almost universally if a regret is expressed, it has to do with working too much or not being close enough to their children.

>>730651624For me personally, I'd regret dying having only consumed and never createdWhich is why I'm making games now, spent way too long only consuming games
>>730651597Pro escapism content usually doesn't try to argue about itself, it just is.
>>730651597Yeah any free to play gacha gamesThose fuckers would have you live inside of the games if possible
>>730649368E33 clearly depicts the escapism ending as dystopian.

>dude, you're a mentally ill shut-in that literally didn't go outside from the day you've finished high school? stop escaping your reality and le start breeding and working! only you can save yourself from yourself!Wow, truly beautiful.
>>730649368.hack g.u is not about escapism tho
>>730654669I take it more as "stop running from your problems, they're not going away anytime soon" type of dealFace em head on and you will end up happierYou know what you're avoiding
>>730654731>Haseo started playing the world and became obsessed with it because it was better than forming connections irl (he was still shit at it)>Atoli started playing the world and became obsessed with it because her real life was terrible, and she wanted to escape it>Endurance started playing the world because he was a complete failure NEET irl who had zero social skills or motivation to do anything in life other than sit in his room 24/7GU comments on many problems with modern society. Escapism was always one of the main recurring themes of the franchise
>>730651597News outlets and short videos brain smoothers. The knowledge of human made horros beyond our control makes you want to just play vidya all day long, it numbs that funny feeling attatched to the ever reaching doom that looms above us.Just forget bro, time will pass either way.
>>730649973based. I particularly hate it when it's a product that I have to buy to escape that tells me escapism is le bad.
need some jrpg's reccs with stories that dont amount to killing god or anime existentialism.
>>730655078Its never the main focus, its always about saving the girl that got literally sucked by the game.hell one of the main problems with the game is that Haseo doesn't exist outside The World and feels more like an entity in it instead of a "playable character".
>>730649368Escapism is good, I hate this stupid trope, some people just don't fit in with normal people but still desire connection.>>730650540So far, I only regret trying to be normal, I should have went full blown hiki years ago.
>>730649368Persona 1 didn't say that thoughever
>>730655220Everytime Haseo and Kite logs out and logs in there's a sense of timeskip. Some of the email exchanges also shows their IRL characteristics and personalities.
>>730654781>stop running from your problemsWhat are those supposed problems?Living in your parents house? People can have a work and then dedicate their free time to leisure.It's not like the escapist types have children to take care of.
>>730649368>You can be just like the Persona MC if you tried making friends at school or work!>Meanwhile the Persona MC has literal main character powers where others can't help but be drawn to him90% of SLs start with a classmate approaching MC after class and begging to hang out with them. If you're the type to play 80 hour JRPGs, you do not have that charisma level IRL.

>life sucks>want a break>thing you're using to take a break tells you to get back in that meat grinder and stop relaxinghow about no, i'll just play something else>>730650540just because you're escaping to a skydiving course or a mountaineering expedition instead of a video game doesn't change the fact that you're still trying to escape.
