      hypothesis: people want to Do A Justified Violence, but they've memed themselves into deeply internalizing that violence is bad, even/especially in self defense against abuse, and they're trying to find something Pure to channel that urge into, because it still exists

      This is a deeply, deeply confused and obnoxious topic, because the SAME PEOPLE who think gaming needs to transcend good ol' ultra-violence are the ones who think gaming needs to re-embrace stories about good triumphing over evil But that's the same thing

      Like, shit, you want a classic good-vs-evil narrative? Doom Eternal It's right there, it was incredibly popular, made a lot of money, and it's everything you asked for

      There is literally no ambiguity about who the good guys and bad guys are -- the good guy is very firmly You (with no complications injected into player/character identification) The bad guys are literal demons from Hell

      It even makes it very clear that there's no "moral grayness" There are people who are supposed to be on the good guys' side, and then they compromise with the demons for one reason or another This causes them to literally BECOME DEMONS, and you have to kill them

      I don't think there's anything wrong with this -- Doom is an awesome game and it always has been But I think they don't get that this is what they're asking for

      They're always aware that the people who love Doom aren't "inspired" by it, that there's always at least a little (and often a lot) of eyerolling irony when people play games like this Everyone knows the story of Doom doesn't actually matter, because a story like this is stupid

          There was no frisson of moral transgression when people started playing Deathmatch in Doom for the first time and had Space Marines shooting each other instead of demons We all knew that story didn't mean anything in the first place

          I... used to think this. And then I saw right wing Twitter. I think there are more people that take those things with zero irony than we want to admit, and it worries me a fair amount.

          Like, I don't want games like Doom to not exist, because that shit is *hilarious*, but they expose what a bad job we make at teaching maturity by seeing who just doesn't get it. Sometimes the people making the games don't get it, and that's even worse.
