      The weird thing is that, sure, in most of polite society this is a horrible moral failing, but it's also a *cognitive capacity* most people seem to lack? Like how for like a month at one job I had a computer without a working mouse

      And I was just like "You know what, it doesn't take that long to get used to navigating Windows with keyboard shortcuts A mouse is actually completely optional, and in some ways slower"

      It literally only got replaced because something else on the computer didn't work and when the IT guy came in and found out the mouse didn't work he was outraged

      My sister used to rib me saying that the job I was most suited for was clearly "homeless person" "Arthur's superpower is he can get used to anything Remember when he didn't pack any winter clothes for college and instead of fixing it he just spent the whole time cold"

      I guess to sort of drag this back to video games, this is why I don't care much for persistent-world simulation games and am strongly drawn to their logical inverse, the roguelike genre (or, even better, the rogue-lite genre)

      A game that throws you into a random situation -- one that may be completely and totally unfair -- and demands you adapt to it in a short period of time And if you fail, well, whatever That world gets trashed and you start again with a blank slate

      It has a certain resonance with the way I live my life "Well, this run isn't going well, guess I'll have to pull the plug and move to a different state soon"

      (Along these lines, in terms of the chrome -- the themes and imagery of the game -- this is why I prefer rogue-lites to be grimdark af The Binding of Isaac was my first love here There's no permanent home in this world, only a series of nightmares you keep waking up into)

      Ha ha I guess this goes into a lot of gaming discourse My feelings about why I play games align me with all that old school gaming people say we're trying to evolve beyond "Extractive" vs. "constructive", "destructive" vs. "creative", a hostile environment vs. a friendly one

      To a traditional video game protagonist, the world is an enemy The narrative is one of constant motion, either invasion or of escape The "economy" is one of theft, of "cleaning out" a dungeon or a base, the primary relationship with its inhabitants is violence and murder

      And I dunno, I guess... I vibe with that Sorry if that's problematic but My thoughts whenever I'm in a new environment are a metaphorical "How much can I fill my pockets with before I get caught, and what's the fastest way to bust out and skip town once I do"

          As a gamer I am like I am as a martial artist, or as a derby skater. I want to learn to execute in the best way I can, then to do it

          I don't know if I'd call that problematic. I know yer talking about gaming discourse, but if yer not hurting anyone I don't see why "taking what you want from yer new environment and leaving" is inherently bad - I mean depending on how you go about it.
