I don’t know why I’m picking at this likability theme. I have a feeling it’s related to my mediocrity beat. Socially, mediocrity solves for likability rather than esteem, power, or agency I think. Maybe with a side helping of mildly annoying.

I have a bunch of different POVs on this from playing different versions of this game over the years. Broad mainstream likeability can be a bit of a trap unless you are somehow genuinely, happily bland - there’s a buildup of frustration if you’re hiding and faking things
