Oooooor maybe /v/ hates them because of recent overuse of the term "coming of age" by the journalist shills.
Just like "having a blast" or "return to form/roots".

The only coming of age stories I know of in vidya is Life is Strange and Night in the Woods(?) and both of those have some pretty gay shit in it. Some would cite Fable but you age via level ups so it turns weird pretty quickly.

We don't have comng of age shit in Europe. It's part of American ideology and is designed to give normies a false sense of security that life is legible and to make weirdos feel like perma-outsiders that can later be recruited to MK-ULTRA style brainwashing experiments e.g. MAGA.
The closest we get is an arthouse film about sleeping with an older woman possibly your mother or step-mother.
Anyone trying to live an American style life filled with American checkpoints is considered a joke and end up miserable.

Atlas shrugged was decent except for the radio speech. The speech was literally like 80 pages of extremely small font, it would've taken 10 hours to read on the radio or something. I ended up just skipping it after 20 pages or so because it just kept saying the same shit over and over as if I hadn't already read the previous 700 pages of the story and didn't know exactly what the point of the story was

If gamers are such incels, then how come there aren't any coming of age stories where the protagonist misses out on love and has to cope with it, huh? Seems like they would sell like hot cakes, considering your thesis.

NTa but I have, and it all sucks.

How many "classics" can one stomach before you realize that "intellectual media" is just an endless repetition of the same existential dread slop written by people who have lost fun in life because they can't get their peepee up anymore?

Grant, Kafka, Tolstoi, Lee, Capote, etc etc etc its all the same shit that just leaves you with depression.
The only fun classics are Stevenson or Dumas, and what they're writing is basically just your regular old hollywood adventure story, so not really better anyway.
And anything outside of classics in literature, is just garbage. If you read anything written after 1969 then you're basically a retard.

Point is, at this point, games manage to get the same stories in a more poignant manner across than most books. Same way how every single Vietnam movie made the book Starship Troopers obsolete, because it summarizes the point in a better and more concise manner.

True in my case. Such media would just twist the knife. One of the reasons I'm playing video games in the first place is to forget about it for a moment.

It's your own fault that you read to consume "intellectual media". Sounds like you have an issue with being a pseud.
>Grant, Kafka, Tolstoi, Lee, Capote, etc etc etc its all the same shit that just leaves you with depression.
Then read other shit.
>And anything outside of classics in literature, is just garbage.
According to a retard who forces himself to read things he doesn't like.
>Point is, at this point, games manage to get the same stories in a more poignant manner across than most books.
Video games don't have real stories.
